Brackley's success all done on an average attendance of 255. :shock: What happens when their backers pull out?

I've been watching a lot of Brackley this season and if they could play for 90 mins they will walk the league!

Jeff has either been clinical or lazy and despite 16 goals manager Jon Brady +his assistant, Diamonds legend Darren Collins, have often been frustrated by his performances and said so on air!

Louis was rumoured to be on £550 per week with Turley on £750! Their best player is Tom Winters who would walk into both the Cobblers + Plops team but like Brett Solkhon are on too good money!

Louis is a replacement for Sam Smith who is likely to be out for the season following a second broken foot - interestingly Richard Pacquette is there and he is Louis cousin.

Robinson + Mulligan is just what the doctor ordered.

That was dire! I wish I hadn't bothered and stayed at home to watch Milan hammer the Gooners.

What's happened to Corby Raz? I went to a few games at the start of the season but for whatever reason i havent been for a good while. They appear to have fallen completely apart!

Well firstly, clearly the pitch at Steel Park is unlike any other because their performances at home have been diabolical for months, yet they can go away to the league leaders with a severely depleted side and get a 1-1 draw.

Some key players have left and have been replaced with some complete and utter rubbish - with one exception - from UCL level. A lad who played last night, Richard Jones, signed from Peterborough Northern Star, looked thoroughly Sunday League. It was embarrassing.

From what i've heard I think the decimation of the team was actually planned as a cost cutting measure but it's reflecting very badly on attendances, less than 300 there last night.

I thoroughly agree and that's 6 home defeats in a row now. Very depressing and they even made Craig Farrell look half decent and we all know how his form dropped away from a couple of years ago.
