Well, here we go....
Our REAL 20/21 season starts here and following easy wins v Loughborough and the like we’ve come back down to real earth with a bit of a crash, failing to register a win in our last 4 games.
I do hope this 3 at the back system works for IE but so far, it’s looking like HS2 might find a route across the ReeMac
I will remain as positive as I can but we have to start earning the right to play on the magnificent football pitch we have instead of allowing our opponents to take it in their stride and take us to the cleaners.
We start with our first point v FGR and we protect that in the best way possible, but we also want goals as goals win games.
It’s time to register PARKHILLVATT’s first win so I’m going for a 3-2 win as I know we’ve goals in us as do FGR, it’s a matter of who’s defence will be the leakiest on the day, let’s hope it ain’t ours

Correct grud, but it can be improved upon, which it will as the team gels.
Okay, so we lost in both cup games. I think a win is on the cards for Saturday, so I'll go with 3-1 and Evatt's only moan being a lack of a clean sheet.

Ever the optimist, I am hoping (expecting) a win in this game.
Based on the second half against Crewe, we look capable of scoring goals.
Based on both matches played so far, we definitely look like conceding so maybe a high scoring win.
The side needs to concentrate better as most of the goals conceded are down to sleepiness. I do also accept that our defenders have come from lower leagues than us so we need to be patient and hope to see them improve.
I have a slight concern over the midfield – Sarcevic has had two average performances and the wing backs need to provide a few more crosses.
Upfront, surely it is just a matter of time until Doyle /Delfouneso /Miller score a lot. Doyle could (should?) have scored 2 or 3 on Tuesday but it will come.
A 3-1 win so get the league season going.

I really just don’t know what to expect, we have improved over the last 3 games but will it be enough? I personally think we’re missing a strong defensive mid in front of the centre halves rather than 3 at the back but even with that, if players go to sleep or don’t pick up runners, we’ll concede goals like the ones we already have. Having said that, I’m happy that IE’s system is based on attack and maybe conceding one or two is part of the deal, as long as we’re scoring more at the other end. Like others I think it’s only a matter of time before Doyle starts popping them in and we start to get one or two elsewhere. I thought Crawford was far better against Crewe so hopefully others are also now finding their feet as well. Despite my reservations I think the boys will be really fired up for this one and I’m confident IE will have them boiling so I’m going for a 3-1 win to set us up for a winning season.

Well less than 24hrs to the start of the new season and I’m not one to put a dampener on things but I will be more than happy if first and foremost our town survives this new lockdown without to many casualties hopefully with none. Now onto our second thoughts a Bolton home win will be most welcome but not as important stay safe one and all COYWM

My initial optimism has begun to dilute given the last two games. We should win this but I fear a draw at best. 2-2.

Just taken a corner, what is our left wing back taking corners on the right side of the field with White standing in an obvious offside position? I watched both previous games and our corner routines are just awful and totally ineffective. We have lots of big guys to receive crossed corners and it's just not happening.

Well that was pretty average.
Doyle & Greenidge should have scored but Forest Green had enough half chances to worry us.
The quality of passing is awful.
We had one spell when we got a number of passes in and Sarcevic had a good attempt saved but, in all honesty, we have been very poor.
We have been giving away too many free kicks just outside the area.

Thanks guys, I had my iFollow code sent to me as a ST holder, followed all the instructions, logged in, entered card details etc, put in the code, clicked apply and it continually rejected the code so I ended up missing the game completely, which from the sound of it seems a blessing. I couldn’t find any chat line but I did email as requested but haven’t had a reply, surprise surprise, so that’s one match missed. I’m going to contact iFollow and expect a free code for our next away game. Thanks anyway for your advice.
