Yes, any sort of win will do. Leamington have only scored 3 goals in their last 8 games and we are currently bottom on form. Lynn to win 2-0. With it being our first home game with IC back as manager with maybe a bit more optimism, I think the attendance will be around 1200.

Southport would be the least happiest, as being at home and sitting bottom, needing the points would have hoped for a win against an out of form Lynn.
We have to take a positive from today, that being not conceding. Not losing away is always decent and something to build on for Tuesday at home when hopefully, we will get a win against Leamington.

We are a small town in Norfolk and lucky to have a football club at this level. I think maybe people expect continued success, rather than just looking forward to their Saturday and excepting there are two teams both wanting to win.
Season ticket holder for first time and enjoying watching my team. Not expecting promotion, but challenging for play offs would be nice.

Need to get the manager situation sorted, Joe isn't the answer. Enjoy today's game and let's get a win, 3-2 😀

Both Fylde's goals came from mistakes. Had Nyahwema and Gyasi been on from the start, we may well have got something from the game. Nyahwema is so tricky and was a real handful for their right back. It was by him getting the better of his defender and getting a cross in that we git our goal from and that was soon after coming on.
Charlie Wilson looked assured when he came on. I wasn't impressed with Kamara, Marriott looked lively when he came on and I would prefer Marriott over Kamara on today's showing. I would have kept Williams on rather than subbing him for Marriott and took someone else off, maybe Clunan. We know how good Williams is at free kicks, so for that reason, would have preferred him there, just in case we got a free kick close to goal.
Always said it is a work in progress and I'm sure we will come good, we need to stick together and be patient.

Mallard - do you rate Omotayo as a centre forward and how many goals would you expect our number 9 to score?
To date he has scored 2 goals, our right back has scored double that. Do you think that if Toll was fully fit and recalled from loan that he could play up front with both Omotayo and Gyasi.
Hopefully Omotayo can prove some people wrong and score the winner at Scunthorpe on Saturday, like he did at Doncaster.

Unless Marriott starts a game, we won't really know if he is of any real value to the squad. His fitness and pace levels weren't up to scratch at Boston and this far into the season would indicate similar. Omotayo as a number 9 centre forward just isn't good enough, so yes I agree with a couple of posts re their views. I like Gyasi, I think he is capable at this level, we do need someone else to play along side him. Not seen too much of Maja, so not sure on him.
Don't think there is a real rush to appoint a manager, it's much more important to get the right one. Tough game in the cup next week, but certainly no real pressure on our boys, remember Doncaster Rovers.
For me, I'm not overly fussed about the need for promotion, I'm very much enjoying the better style of football. Season ticket holder for the first time ever and I've been watching Lynn since the days of Mick Wright and Malcolm Lindsay, weren't they real class.
Good to see that Grace is back too.

The best team won, even after we went 1-0 up Scarborough showed their intent. I think we have to accept that we are very much a work in progress. Great free kick from Williams for his goal, he is areal talent, was surprised he didn't get the man if the match award. Good effort from our boys today, difficult conditions to play in and a very well organised opponent. Respect to the Scarborough fans, a long trip to support their team.

Great day out yesterday. Train there and back plus admission for just £20.80. Played very well and after going two up after just 12 minutes, we were in complete control. Was pleased to see Nyahwema start ahead of Omotayo, his pace and trickery was too much for the Royston defence. FA Cup games are never givens, so well done on going anout it in a professional manor.
Looking forward to tomorrows 4th Qualifyimg Roung draw, Spalding and Stamford are in it, one if those maybe.

Great win on the road in the Cup that. When is the draw for the next round ?  I guess Chapman is cup tied so only one keeper in the squad.   Have a e not got any other keepers at the Club who could sit on the bench?  Just in case
Gold Omotayo started as a goalkeeper I remember reading. Pleased he scored a couple today, great for his confidence. A very good win, looking forward to see who we get next, hopefully a home draw, Spalding maybe.

Have to respect JR's starting 11, personally, I would prefer Omotayo as a sub. He hasn't scored and for me doesn't offer enough elsewhere, we are a better team playing the ball on the ground rather than long balls that he doesn't win.
No complaints with the way Kidderminster broke the play up with time wasting, we would have done exactly the same thing. We played well and gave it our all, just couldn't unlock a well organised defence. No shame in losing tonight. Williams deserved his man if the match, he is some player.

General Discussion / Re: Chorley away.
August 25, 2025, 02:34:46 PM
Yes Mallard, Chorley will be favourites, as we were against Darlington I guess, but it doesn't always go that way. Imagine we would view a draw today as a good result. After watching both our home games, although we drew both, I feel we are good enough to win today and certainly shouldn't fear Chorley, or any team in this league, respect them yes of course. So impressed with Nyahwema, if he plays to his full potential he causes our opposing full backs (especially if he plays on the left I feel) so many problems.
For me this season it is more about enjoying the attacking style that James Rowe plays. I think with that results will be more favourable.

We played good attacking and entertaining football again. Compared to last season, that was very pleasing to watch. Had enough chances in the second half to win the game, but Darlington defended well when they needed to. Not at all disappointed in the result, we have a great team and a very good manager.

They gave Widdrington a two-year contract at the beginning of the month.
It might be expensive to get rid of him.
Not surprising they did  He won the F A Trophy last season
You should read their fans forum. They are not fans of either of them. Where is Arron Jones these days.
