I don't want Vincenti anywhere near the team. His chronic lack of pace slows our attacks & although he is tall he isn't particularly good in the air. I also think Bayliss is already physically stronger. I've seen noting from Vincenti that makes me think he would stand up to Lincoln/ Notts type...

Out of interest does anyone know the record crowd for a League 2 play off semi? Whatever it is there must be every chance we will beat it on Saturday!

I was in the home end when we played at Forest in the semi final of the League Cup in the late 80's/ early 90's with a mate who was a Notts fan & who was wearing their away kit which happened to be Sky Blue. When Steve Livingston scored we both celebrated & got a few looks but nobody had a go at...

I was at the game too, and as I remember it, Fergie & Wallace retreated to the half way line allowing their defenders to just play the ball along their backline. I've certainly no recollection of the ball being passed between the two teams.

Although football is my first love sports wise I've never had much luck betting on it. I do a lot better on horses, more so on jumps racing than the flat, but fwiw I'm betting two horses today at Newmarket. In terms of the betting point formula mentioned here that's - 220 Alpha Delphini 1pt @...

I would imagine that Napoli (or even Wasps) stole it too. Most likely a French club side like Marseille or PSG came up with it, or possibly even the French national side.

Weren't the Cheltenham & Forest Green tickets only sold to season ticket holders? Maybe you should hope less season ticket holders go instead :)

Go for it, although I'm not sure you should have talked your tipping record up so much, as you're kind of building yourself up for a fall!!

Doyle always looks for that edge. Taking quick free kicks can sometimes make you look stupid, normally because your own players aren't always switched on but it is a really useful weapon against League 2 defenders when they don't have time to organise themselves. I remember when we had Dennis...

..... against us. It was a freak & not typical. If they get a result against Mansfield it is more likely to do with Mansfield's limitations rather than Yeovil's qualities.

The Yeovil performance at the Ricoh was a one off freak - they are not very good. We would be unwise to count on them doing us any favours against Mansfield. We have to at least draw against Cheltenham so come the last game it is in our hands either way.

. Well if he does let's hope he is subtle about it as the last thing we need is to be playing with 10 men in such an important game. I would rather he got on trying to play his game rather than carry on some ancient vendetta.

The reason bookies clean up is because punters play by the presumption that what happened previously is going to happen again. Football doesn't always work like that, & while I agree its unlikely Mansfield will win their last 4 games, there is a chance they could.

A lot of those that seem to believe this £175k loan fee are ones that normally demand a link as proof of this type of thing, so can someone please put something up from either club that shows this fee is real, rather than a figure plucked up by someone as guesswork, which then becomes 'fact'...

This £175k fee for loaning JCH is an urban myth though isn't it?

We don't know what Accrington team will turn up for their game on Saturday. It would only be natural if they have been partying this week after being promoted on Tuesday. I think we would all fancy our chances in the play offs against a Wycombe team without the beast though.

Jones seems to play on the right as much as the left though, I just don't recall Reid doing likewise. If he's not comfortable playing there he's unlikely to play very well.

I've seen a few people put this idea about playing Reid on the right but I don't recall him ever playing there so it would be quite a risk to start doing so at this point in our season.

Always makes me laugh when we get the jibes about fans treating Baker as a legend, when you only have to read this thread to see the bitterness aimed towards him by many. Not met him myself, but my friend was raising money for 'Help the Heroes' and Baker was the one City player that went out of...

Not sure I agree that JP struggled in the 1st half, I thought he found the new system easier to cope with than McNulty did for instance, but you are certainly right about the visible boost to his game after the 2nd goal. The way he helped close out the game by their corner flag was very...
