Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

Asbestos. If I remember correctly a few years ago the club were looking for volunteers or anyone with expertise to help potentially reopen the stand, but I assume the cost was too much, or no offers were forthcoming. An asbestos survey was carried out, along with a structural assessment. Minimal as...

Re: Returning to the Dog & Duck

I don't know anything about the D&D, i moved to this area about four years ago so all that is before my time. I can see the stand as I drive by sometimes but that's the closest I have ever been to it. It looks pretty well up together from a distance... The general feeling seems to be a move back...

Re: [ Sat 23rd Mar ] v Quorn AFC, KO 3pm NPLD1M AWAY

a bit of a battering today from a far better team, and good luck to QFC in the playoffs, but if we learn from it then it won't have been a waste.
there has to be a big response for Tuesday now.

Re: [ Tue 20th Feb ] v Peterborough Utd U21 KO 7:45pm HSCSF HOME

Play a rigid - and I do mean rigid - 4-4-2. Each player has an area to patrol and he can be backed up by two others at any time. Keep to the formation, keep discipline, don't foul - Quorn will be falling over and whining and conning the ref right from the start, the team has to keep its cool. You ne...

Re: [ Sat 16th Mar ] v Lye Town, KO 3pm NPLD1M HOME

Can't argue with the result but I felt the scoreline flattered the visitors a little. A first (and probably last) game to forget for our keeper and it would help us if we at least got one shot on target in the 90. Oh well. Onward to Quorn next week, if we get a point out of them we will be doing well.

Proper demolition job.
If Quorn had had any supporters there they would have been proud of their club

That's a waterlogged pitch in 2024? What is our game coming to.

Re: 3G at Hayden Rd?

Exactly - replacing grass with plastic can't be good.

Also the variation in playing surfaces is part of what football is, the game shouldn't be diminished by taking that variation away.
