Swindon Town v Grimsby pre match drivel and matchday thread

[Audrey]

3 points vital as I can see the unbeaten run coming to an end Tuesday.

Don’t forget many didn’t rate Williams let’s hope he doesn’t come back to haunt us. Also Bradford away next week end will be another tough match.

Well, Flynn saw off Lindsey easy enough and his previous club, Walsall.

A treble of Williams, Garner and Newport would do nicely!

Cheers. Will be my first game of the season

In fairness Williams left us as manager 6 years ago.
He spent 5 of those 6 years outside of management before taking over at Notts County.

Not massively out of the realms of possibility he’s studied, learnt and improved in 5 years. I think we all knew he had something about him but i think the consensus here at the time was he was pushed into the job that he didn’t want / wasn’t ready for. I don’t think there was ever any hatred or malice for him when he was here.

That ‘3 draws is the same as a win’ quote is still legendarily stupid though.

You may be right he may have learnt his trade during the five years since managing us but looking back not many would have predicted he would become a decent manager

It's up there with Paul Hart trying to convince everyone we played with 3 strikers.

Or multiple quotes from any Scott Lindsey interview.

Took some awful abuse from our fans.
Witnessed some venomous verbal attacks on him.

Clearly has matured and put together a decent footballing side.

I also witnessed some of the abuse when sat in the Arkells, stitched up by Power and Sherwood and no wonder the guy was showing signs of stress towards the end. Fair play to him for giving it another go when it would have been easier to carry on coaching.

That's a shame, because he always came across as nice, probably "too nice".

But by god the football served up nearly sucked the football supporting life out of me. Obviously things have changed now as its actually successful.

Off piste. Is today the last round of FA Cup qualifiers?

Nope 1 more round including the National League before we come into play.

I’m out of the UK atm. The TV has iPTV but individual games in the EFL aren’t listed game by game. It’s just listed EFL1 thru to EFL35. Does anyone have the same and if yes which number is our game.

[Batch]

I'd imagine it's service specific but my friends is efl34 and EFL l2-11 on set 2.

They also say are you are sure there isn't some sort of playlists refresh/update you need to do to get the actual listings
