Re: Scarborough Athletic 0-1 Southport - Match Thread

No it should be Deepdale or Bolton or Blackburn.
Then it would be something worth playing for.

Re: Scarborough Athletic 0-1 Southport - Match Thread

What is their reward ? two county cup games in three days.! In Two days time !!! I reckon they are looking forward to the games. Better than boring training. Totally, both matches at neutral venues and Mondays with quite a big crowd, much better than a quiet, windy training session any day. Excelle...

Re: Scarborough Athletic 0-1 Southport - Match Thread

I agree with that but you don’t get injured or sent off and training is paced.
Should be a good watch though.

Absolutely no doubting Heaths commitment he puts himself about actually similar to Carver.
If he can start scoring a few we are onto a winner.

Seriously well done to the team, one thing not Doubted is their effort and that must have had alot. What is their reward ? two county cup games in three days.! In Two days...

Re: Southport 0-0 Alfreton - Match Thread

We have a set of players given striking strikers that should do well. Our defending is good I am not going to name names but we have players who can get up the pitch but to me it’s usually chasing 80/20 long punts or rushed clearances usually Ariel which is food and drink to defenders We are not bu...

Re: Southport 0-0 Alfreton - Match Thread

Dear moderators can a statement go to the club that the vast majority of members of this website forum strongly disagree with the actions of the minority who demonstrate against the Chairman of Southport FC.
Or something like that.

Re: Southport 0-0 Alfreton - Match Thread

This is not a whinge - just an observation that hopefully an attempt to explain one of the factors that has caused us to go backwards. If you cast your mind back to when Keenan and Carberry appeared. Carberry was signed because of his impressive performances. He was energetic. He added flair down t...

Re: Southport 0-0 Kettering - Match Thread

They came for a point?. So they hit the cross bar twice? We didn’t bring a save from their keeper but we passed and threw the ball to him about a dozen times. We scored a great goal against Blythe by a change from the ridiculous monotonous long throw and corner routine. But haven’t learned from it. ...

Re: Southport 1-1 Boston - Match Thread

Some rubbish on here as usual. Quansah hardly put a foot wrong and joined in the attacking second half. Carberry does rush some of the clearances but a headless chicken no way. Heath to me is far more involved and preferable to Archer. The back four did really well. Bainbridge took a knock and shoul...

Re: Q&A with Ian and Liam

I've always been torn about artifical pitches for various reasons, but I'm really coming round to the idea of them being rolled out more widely. One of my big concerns was always losing a "traditional" feel to football grounds, as an artificial pitch may seem to make it have more of a tra...

Re: Southport 2-1 Blyth Spartans

Well done to the team great hard fought result against a team on form.what a breath of cold fresh air. At last some innovation with some short corners free kicks. Oppositions have become so used to our stereotype methods And this completely threw them in the second half. All we need now is for McMil...

Re: Southport 0-1 Hereford - Match Thread

If Miles and Heath had started and played like they did throughout we would have won easily.
Quansah was class as was Anson.
We stand too far way from our long throws.
The attendance was a lot more than 1018.
It wasn’t a bad game just bad result.

Re: Southport 0-1 Hereford - Match Thread

We had enough chances and should have won.
Miles is wasted on the bench.
Heath looked better today.
Quansa defended well and attacked well in the last 20 mins.
We reckon there was at least 1300 there.
