First impressions were wtf! tiny ground and no real stand but it didnt seem to bother folk apparently this is normal .

First half FC were a bit poor tbf and it was a scrappy game . Second half you could feel the tension and it seemed to spur the Fc players on a bit . Fc's left winger looked good very quick and tricky (black lad confusingly wearing no 10)

3 goals and 3 pitch invasions later it was bedlam.

Enjoyed it on the whole. Spent about £30 all in including fuel, food, ticket £6 programme and few beers .

Glad you enjoyed it.

Do you ever watch Barrow? If so was Tim Deasy any good? His bird works with me and every week he would get man of the match apparently.

Not very often, armchair fan mostly (just like United, really) - but yeah, he's supposed to be good.

He's at Gateshead now. Bust up with the managers apparently.

Yeah, I recall that now you mention it

Another player who was supposed to arrive in the summer never actually played a game and has just had his contract cancelled. Sort it out Bluebirds ffs

lol

was a bit of a shock - I kept looking out for the "stadium" and when we went thru what appeared to be someones back garden and at that point I realised ooh this is it


good laugh tho (spose thats the point)

That was the smallest ground we've played at for ages. Norton are a good few divisions below FC. Many of the places we play are more recognisable as football grounds, though still small ones obv.

It's the Town Army coming to Gigg Lane this Saturday as FC play Newcastle in the FA Trophy at 3.00 pm.

Another road to Wembley.........

you know what I've spent worse afternoons watching football and paid a £#%&! of a lot more for it as well

whats the game this weekend ?

Is codders doing undercover promotion work?

It's too obvious

Codders and Badge are two different people I'm afraid.

Newcastle Town at home in the FA trophy......It'll be shit. You'd be better off coming to the FA cup game next sunday, should be a cracker.

I'm a marketting expert.
