'COUNTDOWN !' 65...64...63...etc.

yonmon · 06-06-2008, 22:03

65 !!! No, it's nothing to do with season Ticket Sales !, but rather the number of days remaining until that 'magic' Saturday when, whether we love or hate Coley, 'the Reds' will emerge from their pre-season cocoon to fly once more in the heady skies of League 2 !. ( Before some sharp-eyed pedant reminds me, it will be 63 days if I discount today and the Saturday in question..or 64 if I just exclude Today or Saturday th 9th....)
Carol and I both thought that it might be of interest if anyone with a bit of news to share, or an opinion to express about the day in question,. or just a bit of banter to get off their chest, might like to take up the 'COUNTDOWN' as the days pass by !.....
SO...if anyone can post a bit of something for day '64' then
let's have it....( DM included!)
My thoughts for day 65 revolved around a fantasy ( not one of 'those'!) where J.J.Okocha having been snapped up from Hull City was spraying pin-point passes and bending unsavable free kicks at the FES, and we fans were loving it!...So much so, I,ve added him to my 'Wish List'.

WHAT WILL DAY 64 BRING ???....I WONDER !

63 !! All quiet on the ALTHAM WEST-ern front ?

63 !! er... 62 ? - I think !.

AND...ANDY MANGAN joins Forest Green Rovers !!...
but Alfred.E. reckons that inside that young 'Conference'Striker there is a star League Forward trying to get out !!
It'll be interesting to see if Andy can fulfil this potential, whilst keeping his somewhat volatile disposition under control !.
One can only wish him well !.

'What me worry' ...there's nowt to worry about !.
( Except some of the rubbish masquerading as Soccer
at the Euro's.....FRANCE ?...Merde !)

It's a sad life I lead TM !!....but thanks for the response. !
it has renewed my faith in the world...!
Talking of 'impressions'...I even do one of myself...talking to myself !...
Just thought the 'countdown' might get rid of my 'close-season' blues and maintain the link between we 'Forumites'.
The worst thing is that it didn't even get a response from Depechemode.!
Thanks again for your sympathetic ear...

'What me worry'...with associates like TM and Wynonie Harris...NEVER !! .

I fairly feel sorry for Mangan as he will no doubt be expected to fill the void left by Stuart Fleetwoods inevitable departure. Big shoes to fill Andy.

60!!
Going to the dentist today. It's a bit like going to the FES - you go in trepidation, not knowing what to expect. You often come away feeling down in the mouth and your wallet's always lighter!!

And COLEY WANTS....
We want hungry players - Coleman.

Accrington boss John Coleman admits the League Two play-off final whetted his appetite for success next season.
Stockport beat north-west rivals Rochdale 3-2 at Wembley last month to secure promotion to League One and Coleman was full of admiration for their achievements.
The Stanley manager told the Accrington Observer: "Watching that game at Wembley certainly whets the appetite and makes you want to win games.
"They have young, hungry players and that's what we want.
"I do believe if we get the right players in, the ones we want, then I can't see why we won't have a good season."

Love him or Hate him...he certainly can state the obvious !.

'WHAT ME WORRY'...not about JC & JB !.

...58 !!..
And what about our potential 'MIDFIELD' signing ??.
Chester City are hopeful of completing the double capture of free agents Eddie Johnson and Anthony Barry.
Striker Johnson and midfielder Barry have been told they will not be offered new contracts by Bradford City and Yeovil Town respectively and Chester chairman Stephen Vaughan has revealed his club's interest.
"We've offered them both terms and it is the best we can put forward," he told the Chester Chronicle.

"Hopefully they'll accept.".

Hopefully 'HE' won't !!.....any news????

COOL CATS NEVER WORRY !!.
