Thought Hancox was excellent alongside Bainbridge. Iwan Murray was very very good, as was Dan Turner when he came on. Rawlinson is a beast.
The communication seems a lot better through the team, starting from the keeper. We were very vocal. Enjoyed it, reckon around 3-400 Seals there.
Loads around Douglas this morning, in various conditions.

Does anyone have a spare ticket for the meet up tomorrow night for my son? Obviously happy to pay for it. I was going to just try blagging him in but might be better with an actual ticket. I’m in a similar boat (pardon the pun) here. I wasn’t online much when in Cyprus, so didn’t get a notification about the event, and I wasn’t expecting it to sell-out so quickly. If anybody who bought a ticket can’t make it, I’d be more than happy to buy it off you.

I'm probably mis-remembering, but didn't we once play Brentford away at 11am on Boxing Day years ago?

I think we played Port Vale home at an 11ish kick off 2008 lost 2or3-1. Tried to obliterate that era from my memory

What are the chances of us doing the IoM tour again next year?

Went to Radcliffe vs Lancaster this afternoon. Radcliffe played some very decent football and were good value for a 4-1 win - Brad Jackson was probably the standout performer of the former Chester contingent, in a sort of hybrid RB/RW role, with Jude Oyibo also on the scoresheet.

Yes, got up at 5 a m. to catch the coach from the town hall only for it to break down at Northwich. No replacement coach so consequently never got to the game. Probably 35 of us on the coach had a wasted day!

IoM and Radcliffe drew 3-3 if anyone is interested, so if you want to make a tournament out of it, we were the only team to win both games!

Never really had a lit of luck at Brentford, this particular game when we never got there and the only other time I went to Griffin Park we got snotted 6-0!
