Even that raging bull of a striker the talented but volatile Andy Green didn't manage to get himself suspended for eight matches within the same season!
Loved that bloke. Hard bastard. That’s what the changing room door said at Dagenham

A lady with her young daughter made the same remark to me, I thought we were a bit better than that and was surprised to hear that chanted. He maybe a complete moron after being caught DD a few weeks ago after the incident he was prior involved in resulting in the death of people. Tragic as it was it wasn’t/isn’t murder, that’s a premeditated act. I feel the CPS probably went with the more realistic charge of death by dangerous rather than manslaughter and him then being found not guilty. Again, I’m not defending the bloke he appears to be a loose cannon.

To add we were class second half. Moult has gone onto a new level. The direct attacking football was unreal. This is the best football I've seen us since the McKenna and Showler days without doubt.
Really? I’d to think the 94-95 season is up there

We were watching a striker, north west based as I know the players brother. I won’t name him or the club but he’s quite prolific a few leagues down. It was his birthday a few weeks ago and he got concussed while out so hasn’t been playing. He would be someone I’d like the look of as he’s still young. Newport County have also had scouts watching him

It would obviously be better to start with proper full backs in their proper positions if we can. But I wouldn’t rush anyone back on Thursday before they are ready, for what will likely be the easiest of the 3 quickfire away games. Albeit all against teams in poor form.
I must admit I think Lancaster may be the hardest of the three.....I seem to think our record there is less than inspiring (Mike Garnett may prove me wrong). Overall record at Lancaster - played 20, won 5, drawn 6, lost 9, scored 26, conceded 30. I think you have a point. Thanks Mike. I wonder if Lee Poland is available

Extending a season sets a precedent, when is it done. Does it give an advantage to a club that doesnt get its fixtures completed. If all clubs have a backlog fair enough but this is unlikely to be the situation. Cheshire cup to be a preseason comp is the answer
If you make the CSC pre season then you risk filling the schedule with fixtures that are less lucrative and not having the preferred type of opposition. I would do away with it altogether, an anachronism in 2018 I'm afraid. I wouldn't extend the season either. You can’t “do away” with the CSC. It’s a requirement of our registration for the Cheshire FA enabling us to take part in the FA Cup and FA Trophy
