We've had SON tickets for nearly two years and now we can't keep our 100% record at Beaumont Leys. Even an 11 a.m. kick off would be cutting it fine to get to BV in time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lbw 869 Posted October 13, 2021 Stewart Dickson as said that he didn't want to discuss his intention to use a guest against Poole and r/r against Scunthorpe before last night's meeting because he didn't want to be disrespectful to Scunthorpe. Talk about double standards, the club are being disrespectful to the SON! Hey well the Pirates will just kick ass tonight and make the 2nd leg irrelevant! 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There should be ample time, if they pulled their finger out they could be done and dusted by 12:30, there have been many matches this season done in around 90 minutes. Even if it didn't finish until 1pm that still leaves a couple of hours to get to Manchester or the Football with an hour to spare 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was'nt there but I get the impression the riders were going through the motions and who can blame them? Any other time it would never have started. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well I know it's not good form to quote yourself, but if I was slightly upset by this clash before tonight, think how I feel now we're going to beat Poole on aggregate? I guess the only consolation is a final to look forward to..... Not another trip north of the border! 4 times in one season is bit much. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrizHeathen 37 Posted October 13, 2021 Its game on now. In the balance. Should be a nail biting second leg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
