Love those bemoaning us losing prize money when just a few weeks ago someone posted up the prize money for each round and pretty much all agreed it doesn’t even break even until the semis! Oh well happy weekend everyone!

No one knows if we will get the Moult money in Jan. We don't know if we will get it in instalments or one lump sum. The other fact is anyone we go after to buy there club will know we have cash available so are going to up there prices. Lastly i don't think Keates will be bringing in 4 or 5 signings. 3 max i would say and im not expecting a decent striker in that either. He needs two decent midfielders minimum.

I liked Hurst to start with but quickly realizing why he's had so many clubs. He's only really useful as an 85th minute substitute when you're up 1-0.

He’s looked quite good at right back to be fair. Don’t think anyone has ever said he’s a centre half. I will admit he was signed based on a midfield performance and had a shocker there v Macc

Well that was awful. £6k and a step closer to Wembley available and we name that team. I managed to blag getting in for £5 but I still feel ripped off

All these trialist strikers are garbage. Go out and get a proper striker for god sake.

It's all about desire to win promotion. If the club has any, it will sign a goalscorer and midfielder in January. If not, you may aswell stay at home for the remainder of the season.

Keates’ record signing strikers and generally setting us up to score goals is the worst I’ve ever seen, this has to be the worst attacking side we’ve ever had.

We have Massanka and Some random fella whilst other teams have proper strikers, why? Tranmere with Cook an co will overtake us soon.

Strikers will win you titles, simple.

Lets be fair Harrogate played some good football, But they were allowed to so by our team, Constant high hoof balls giving the ball away to them all the time, We were very poor, For the first time in many years I left about 5 mins before the end, As there was no chance of us scoring, I don't even think throughout the whole game that their goalkeeper had to make one save. What a joke their very vocal supporters singing "National league your having a laugh" said it all. We have got to get some decent strikers soon, Dover next how can we beat them if our squad plays like we did today?

Not a particularly accurate chant as our reserve team doesn’t play in the National League.

Don't agree at all. I believe defenders win you titles.
The big worry for me today was our awful defence who made fatty beck look like a world beater. Agree with the title of the post.

Do you think that is ever going to be the defence for a league game?
