This will be tough, everything will be crossed. We go for a win surely.

This will be tough as there are no easy games in football. We need to win this game and the first half on Tuesday night made me feel positive
I feel our downfall last season was five short in goals scored and 3 plus in goals conceded
I reckon if we can score 87 goals this will be sufficient to come out top.
We do need to develop a team that is able to score goals more frequently. If we are 2-0 up in a game let’s go for it and score another 2. It will put the shits up on the next opposition.

Early bird price £18 ! .....stronging it?

£18 is price on the day.
Which is all that’s available now since EB finishes 48 hours prior to kick off (it’s £16.50, incidentally). Way too high for IPL

Good luck to the lads today. Tough game but if we can put together a start like the last 20 minutes of Tuesday night, well, who knows?
COYD's

I meant the last 20 of the first half.

No Samir today?

Come on you Darts ! Tough game but we need a win, I hope Samir is back soon

Is Samir on the bench. Pre season against higher league opponents has hit us hard on the injury front.

COYD.

Our bench is light today but good to see Okoye back in the mix.

34 Sam Okoye
29 Eddie Dsane
12 Hugo Taylor
15 Ikechi Eze
26 Gabe Campbell

Pen St Albans and red card Olarewaju, handball.

That’s another defeat looming with 10 men !

Ref must have deemed it deliberate to have given a red? I’d like to see that one back in the highlights

Got to sort out discipline never going to do anything this season with only 10 men on the pitch that’s twice in the first 3 games

1-0

Midfield needs looking at.
Samir and Sammie both prone to injuries.
No real width again either.
Early days but the start to this season has been massively underwhelming.

We’ve dominated this half and the ref has been decent tbh. Michael. Michael. Michael. I dunno, what do you do? We’re f*cked now though.

What a disaster this is becoming.

Massive shades of the Dowse season with awful discipline and our only goal so far coming from a long throw in.

Needs to sort it out ASAP
