Haven’t seen him post yet 😂😂
Thankfully I don’t. But you won’t when we win. Because he’s a troll from another club. Simple really. No detective work required.

Significantly more people through my turnstile today than Tuesday. I was much busier.

MOTM was a a struggle. Eddie just pips Kevin Stuart Taylor but only because he got another hat-trick.

I think we looked really good today and it was great win in the end with other results sorting us too. I think Potters Bar are one of the poorest teams I've seen so far (I actually thought their Number 9 was a good hold up striker though) and their only goal came from potentially a foul and some really poor defending on our behalf but once we got the lead the win was always ours. Ref and Lino (dugout side) were poor at best again but thats going to be a common place thing when you are in this sort of league. Onto Saturday

Not sure where they were hiding the other 400 fans ! 😂 Only looked like 600 to us 🤷but great performance from the boys 👌
Looked a 1000 to me, we all have a guess behind the goal and most of us went over a 1000.
I think what makes it look less is the amount of people who now stand around rhe walkway, easy a few hundred.
The seats (600) were half to two thirds full as well so looked about right to me.
Maybe it looked less as it was a bit colder and we must of been huddled closer 😂

Absolutely wonderful display from the whole team. We had control of the defensive, midfield and forward areas and can’t ask for more than that. Best we’ve played this season. Obviously have to vote motm to Eddie for scoring a good treble but my god Jacob Bland had a brilliant game. What a good player he is.
The ref and thd Lino on the dugout side kept talking to all and sundry throughout the game instead of concentrating on their job. I think the ref waved three yellows at the respective benches , what’s that all about. The ref dreams of being on the telly , what a donut

We’ve had that dickhead of a referee several times now. (Rick might prove?) and he’s been a complete twat on each occasion with his sole purpose being on being centre of attention.

Having officiated at this level I can tell you that you should aspire to be as unnoticed as possible. As soon as you go flashing cards at the bench usually means you have lost all respect and all control. Not sure about the dug out Lino - he was in a lose / lose situation as he is only acting under the buffoon in the middle’s instructions.

But refereeing in general at this level is an embarrassment to the FA’s refereeing initiative. And the reason for that is simple. A dearth of referees at grass roots level (because of abuse and threats) means that less than average performers are being rewarded and being over promoted too early and then creeping up ‘the system.’ It’s shocking. And it’s having an effect further up too if you look closely.

This idiot today is nothing more than an actor and if fans, players, and officials of a 4-1 WINNING team are saying that, then there’s summat seriously wrong. It aint sour grapes.

I haven’t seen a decent refereeing performance at PP for a very long time. I think the last one was one of the ladies in the NLS whilst one of the other ladies, like many of her male colleagues have proven, week after week, to be , so clearly out of their depth.

I watch them all like a hawk every game. This dickhead today somehow managed to administer a ‘team caution’. After their goal, I saw him point to five Dartford defenders, shouting, “one, two, three, four, five,” but brandishing a card to only one but insinuating five cautions for dissent, presumably. Extremely shoddy refereeing and actually quite ‘unlawful.’

Why they can’t ALL just do their jobs without seeking to be the main feature is beyond me and boils my piss!

You described the refs performance far better than I did SD. Idiot is a great word and fits him perfectly

Well done to the lads for following up Tuesdays very good performance with another one today.
Took us a few mins to settle but once we had we played some decent football and ran out worthy winners.
Deserved to go in at least 3-1 up at HT and as soon as the fourth goal went in early in the second half the game was over.
Another real team effort and a few performances that would normally have a shout for MOTM but it has to be Eddie, deserved his hat-trick.

Best week of the season so far. 7 points from 9 which is by no means easy.
The front 3 of box, jones and dsane walk into every side at this level.

On another note, massive shout out to Micky Austin, Geoff, Mick How and Scott for making the race night a success tonight.

Nice to have plenty of things to be positive about

Sounded from the commentary like another very deserved 3 points, in spite of conceding an early goal from a foul that wasn't a foul!! A good fightback. That was one for the Duke, which he would have enjoyed!!

Let's keep this run going.

What I was a bit surprised about and thought he might have received either a yellow or possible red card was when Ade was trying to entice the crowd to chant “You don’t know what your doing” at the referee after yet another bad decision from the ref.

He stood there looking at the crowd behind the goal car park end 1st half and started pointing at the crowd & waving his arms as if to say louder keep it going.

I see looking at the top scorers list in the league Olly is currently 3rd with 8 goals and Eddie is 4th with 7 goals.
They are currently only just behind Alfie Paxman of Ramsgate and Chris Whelpdale of Burgess Hill who are both on 9 goals each.

The way both are going there’s a good chance for them this season.

We’ve not had that for quite a while that I can remember.

Flew in at midnight last night but was already as pleased as punch having clocked the final score. Had a double JD on ice to celebrate..
Great stuff Ade and the lads.

Highlights show that there was no foul on their goal, and what I thought at the time was a complete miskick was correct.

Other than that a very good performance, although Potters Bar are probably the worst team to visit PP in recent years. I still stand by the fact Samir is one of our most important players. We look like a completely different side with him on the pitch. Even when he went off 2nd half we struggled to create anything albeit we was happy to just keep the ball.

If certain doughnut's keep highlighting his drivel what's the point of banning the silly bugger.
No offence Kentc.
