Yes Jamie Reid is showing some great form and despite his critics, he always works hard and does his best. Hat trick on Saturday?

Not sure which previous manager to whom you are referring and this isn't my argument but from the sidelines I'd say in all fairness Gary Owers gave Reid his full-time contract and backed him all the way when Reid's critics, in voice and in print, got out of hand.

I'm referring to Gary Owers. It was his tactical inadequacies and playing Reid every week even when it was clear that the system was not working for him that lead to his sacking. Now with a manager with a bit of knowledge, using tactics to suit the players that we are starting to see the likes of Reid find form and we are seeing goals actually being scored and games actually being won.
Yes, Owers signed Reid, he signed a few good players, just a shame he was so shit at managing them.

I've got no problem with Jamie Reid at all, I amongst the rest of you have been served up dross for god knows know long.
It'll take a lot more to convince me, that's all,
If and when he is consistently banging the goals then I'll jump on the Jamie Reid lurve train, but until then I'll stay with what I've witnessed in the previous seasons.
Is that ok ? I'm quite happy for you to express your opinions.
Cheers.

That's because in any Football Association match where the receipts have to be shared; no free admission is allowed and therefore the £1 for U12s is a token charge.

Admission prices need to be agreed mutually between the competing clubs and it is not unknown for higher charging visitors to insist on prices higher than the home club would normally wish to set.

In all Rounds, match expenses shall include travelling expenses, actually incurred, which must not exceed £3.00 per coach mile for same day travel and £6.00 per coach mile where an overnight stay is agreed. The travelling expenses for the Visiting Club are to be calculated on a direct route from the Club’s Headquarters, the total mileage must be agreed between both Clubs prior to the first match and confirmed on the Match Arrangement Form. Where agreement concerning hotel accommodation has been reached, Clubs must confirm the agreement in writing on the Match Arrangement Form. Where mutual agreement concerning hotel accommodation cannot be reached, and the Visiting Club considers it necessary or desirable to claim hotel expenses, written application must be made to The Association with a copy to the Home Club at least seven days in advance of the first match. The Professional Game Board shall have the power at its absolute discretion whether or not to grant permission. The grounds for making such an application are that it would be necessary or desirable for the Visiting Club to leave its headquarters before 8.00am on the day of the match, alternatively, not be possible to arrive back at its Headquarters within five hours travelling time of the conclusion of the match. Expenses, which may be claimed, if actually incurred, shall not exceed £100 per person for up to 25 persons. The grounds for making an application are that if the travelling time exceeds five hours which includes a stop of not more than 45 minutes then expenses can be allowed with travelling time based on Auto Route details, as determined by the FA Competitions Office. A Club that has been granted hotel expenses by The Association must stay within a 30 mile radius of the ground where the match will be played.

From this we can ascertain that an expenses claim of over £3,000 will be deductible to be paid to Torquay United before any share of gate receipts is possible. Unless they achieve the £15,000 prize money; there is every possibility of a financial loss on this game for the home club.

My favourite fact about our opposition :

“In 2014 a 107-seat stand was installed after being bought from eBay,with a 150-capacity covered terrace added in 2017.”

eBay! Heroic.

They play one level below us. Last FA Cup game away to a side struggling in the League below, we were shellacked at Basingstoke. This is just the sort of game we would have lost were Owers still here. I think we will win as our Manager will have them fired up again. But I’d be surprised at anything near what happened at Lymington. I’m going for 2-0.

How about;
MacDonald

Essuman
Sendles-White
Cameron
Davis

Hall
Lemonheigh-Evans
Edwards

Andrews
Reid
Keating

Subs;
Burton
Janneh
Williams
Niate
Banton

Rjc70 · Post by **Rjc70** » 06 Oct 2018, 10:46

My guess is McDonald with a back 3 of Niate, Sendles-White and Cameron. Edwards and Davis wingbacks. Midfield three of Hall, Andrews and Lemonheigh-Evans. Reidy and Williams up top.

I wasn't serious about scoring another seven. Happy with any win. Freezing here.

Fair enough. Here’s hoping you get a few Torquay goals to warm the cockles in a bit.
