Ethel The Tree Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 16th November Macclesfield 0-0 Mansfield (att: 2,055) Really wanted Macc to win this one, big time Really wanted Connor Kirby to play out of his skin too, put in a few crunching tackles, score a couple of goals ... Never mind The draw leaves both sides in mid-table, separated by goal difference 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundhopping Owl Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Kirby was named Man of the Match so I wouldn't be too downhearted. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 good for Kirby to have cemented a place for macc …..not easy for young lads in that divison and should give him confidence that he can forge out a career in pro football . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethel The Tree Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 I dunno, another interminable international break - I'm bored I was saving this for Friday but I'll throw it in early ... Nah, never heard of 'em ... No.5 VfL Bochum 1848 Heard of the city though. Bochum is 6th largest in Germany's densely populated western region noted chiefly for heavy industry And that, along with its hilly terrain and proximity to at least one major river, might best explain why it is twinned with ... Sheffield! ... 'ray Obviously has nothing to do with the local coal mines closing down and the subsequent decline in steel production and associated plant works etc As for the club * their fortunes have dipped too. From being a permanent fixture in the top flight, enduring yo-yo years for about a decade (the 90s) To the past ten years and apparently becoming a fixture in 2.Bundesliga They're currently 3rd bottom and play their home games in a half-filled stadium - although they last earned a good away point against Jos's St Pauli Next up for them is JvA & co at home ... * A lot of German sides include the year they were founded in their name This lot proudly claim that 1848 makes them 'one of the oldest clubs in the world' - but it has nothing to do with football In fact, VfL is an abbreviation which loosely translates into 'association for physical education' Which seems fitting as earlier members were more into gymnastics I mean, we could trace our origins back to The Wednesday Cricket Club (1820) Where would that stand us in the world rankings? Or doesn't cricket count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adelphi1867 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 They will better players for their loans. Kirby should come back a stronger character for his time at Maccy, and next season will probably be their breakthrough season at Hillsboro. The worrying thing is that we do not have a goal scorer in our youth ranks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if we did, what then? I'm loath to exhume the George Hirst scenario one more time, but it's the perfect example of where we are With hindsight (that magical commodity) the best thing DC could've done was sell him when he had a chance, and make sure there were enough add-on clauses to benefit SWFC should the player achieve any kind of potential His mistake was to try and keep hold of him - which is what most of us wanted him to do But the only way that was likely to happen was by agreeing to the demands of his agent (and dad) and tearing up whatever wage structure was in place at the time Even then, he'd probably have to guarantee regular 1st team involvement (?) whether the player was ready or good enough or not If we had another hot prospect coming through the same problems would surely apply Except this time I'd imagine we'd be more willing to cash in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRUCE LEE Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Hopefully he starts, especially with it being short term Shaw looks a player, stands out in u23’s, a constant goal threat See how he goes in the dodgy atmosphere at Chesterfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethel The Tree Posted November 22, 2019 Author Share Posted November 22, 2019 22nd November VfL Bochum 1-1 VfL Osnabruck (att: 20,760) Joost van Aken left out of the starting XI for the first time and watched the whole game from the bench Meanwhile, Bochum got off to a flyer with a goal after just 2mins Osnabruck then missed a penalty, but made up for that when they were awarded another in 1st half injury time Second half and it was Bochum's turn to miss a penalty Honours shared but the point was probably more valuable to the visitors Erzgebirge Aue 3-1 St Pauli (att: 14,000) Matt Penney missed this one altogether, presumably still out through injury We know all about the home side, don't we? (p.5) The minnows of the division The crowd figure is probably approximate, but it's not far off a full house And no wonder, this comfortable-looking win moves them up to 3rd in the table, for now Leaving Jos's side looking anxiously over their shoulders 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethel The Tree Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 23rd November Celtic 4-0 Livingston (att: 58,247) Don't know which is the least surprising - Livingston getting thumped or Jack Stobbs' absence from their matchday squad Well until there's something to report, either him getting games or returning to S6, I'm gonna leave 'em to it Salford 0-0 Macclesfield (att: 2,484) No such problems with Connor Kirby though Another 90mins under his belt and another useful away point that keeps his side comfortably mid-table He also picked up another booking though, they'll start adding up soon Harrogate 3-1 Chesterfield (att: 1,710) Liam Shaw was handed his debut and also given the full 90mins He marked the occasion with a yellow card too, but that's probably as good as it got Chezzy actually took the lead on 10mins, were level at half time and then .... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malek Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Had a peak on Chesterfield fans forum. Not much on Liam Shaw there, but one guy who posted said he was head and shoulders above other Chesterfield players (assume it was about how well he did, rather then how tall he is) and how it is shame that they have him only on one month deal. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
