Lambert Revolution! 0 Posted August 4, 2009 I just spoke to my friend "Doc Brown" who has some sort of time machine, ''parently it''s a Dolorian or something or other, I forget.Anyways, he just told me that we''re going to with 3-1. Martin will score 2 and Holt 1. Doherty will be at fault for their goal which will come at 1-0 to make it 1-1. Now I must go as some fella called "Biff" is after me.

Yellowfuture 71 Posted August 4, 2009 [quote user="hurricane"]Come the final whistle on saturday we WILL be 3 points better off. The stadium will be rocking, the players are on a high and getting better with every performance-im sure they cant wait to "turn it on" for us in the first match of the season. The ghosts and chaff from last season are gone and we now almost have a completly new squad of NCFC players all wanting promotion and wanting to win. Should we be worried about Saturday? No-we will want victory to mark this as our first step to winning the league and send a message to all the other teams in the league that we are NCFC and our ground is a fortress. The count down has begun. Colchester wont know whats hit them. OTBC[/quote] "The stadium will be rocking" why? We`re in Div 3? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DumbleDelia is Magic 0 Posted August 4, 2009 When we start saying we will "win easily", we are in serious trouble. No game this season will be easy. I''m delighted with the squad we''ve got and we''re one of the favourites to get promoted. But we can''t be arrogant. We''re going to be playing a lot of clubs we haven''t played for years and clubs we think we should beat. Rightly so perhaps but if we rock up to place like Yeovil and Exeter and expect a win, we will lose. No question.Please don''t talk about winning "easily". It will not end well. I think we''ll win on Saturday but Colchester aren''t going to roll over. We can''t take the piss in this division and have to treat it with respect Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rock the Boat 0 Posted August 5, 2009 And Man Ure lose every game because there''s always pressure on the players and the Oppo raises their game and gets every man behind the ball, right? Wrong Man Ure (choke choke) win most games because they''re the better team. Simple as.NC will be the better team in Div III. Simple is as Simple does.

[/quote]DDiM! Long time no posts, and a good post at that.Rock the Boat - sssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. We''re a league 1 club with league 1 players, ManYoo are a premier league club (already a nonsense league with only 4 teams that have a chance of winning) with Champions League/World Class players and 5 times the budget of all but 4 teams in the division. They are clearly a cut above - we aren''t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ankles 0 Posted August 5, 2009 From everything i saw in pre-season performances we will concede goals, so we will need to score at least 2 to get 3 points. I''m not saying we won''t score 2 or more but it won''t be a cake walk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Salopian 1 Posted August 5, 2009 We had a good pre-season, but with narrow wins, except against non-league opposition. We are not yet a goal-scoring machine, and two of our goals against Wigan were from defensive errors.Theoklitos is still an unknown quantity, and much depends on the CB combination and whether Semi turns his mind to things.If Colchester are as well organised as they seem, - "hard to beat" according to their manager, then almost any result is possible from 0-3 to 3-0, and everything in between.In our favour are one or two very skilful players who can create chances, crowd support, and enthusiasm. We have a team who want to play for us, and want to stamp themselves on the game in the face of colleague competition for their place. These have got to be worth domething.I hope that Gunn & Co will encourage them to be patient, courageous and concentrated fully, right from the start.Having said all this, it would not surprise me is there is only one goal difference between the teams at the end. I hope that we have this goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yellowfuture 71 Posted August 8, 2009 Are the other 11 that we could field in our B team any better than this lot? I think we all know the answer to that one. What a complete and utter farce this close seaon has been, we`ve bought a load of squit who are now being lead by a sadly broken man who hasn`t got a clue what to do next. To those mugs who didnt take their rebate money, hope your pleased with the result, especially those who took the moral high ground! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
