First off, just spotted an erroneous 'not' a few days ago when talking about the eggchasers moving their fixture to accommodate the revised kick off time for Folkestone's visit on Saturday. Should have said 'they've put their kick off time back to 7.30' not 'they've not put their kick off time back'.

Apologies for the rogue 'not'.

Last night at the ARS we entertained a severely depleted Carshalton Athletic and, as we fielded a strong squad on the back of an away win, GFC were strong favourites for a comfortable win. Seems like it was anything but however and we hear that if it was not for Chris Tardif being in superb form we would have been lucky to gain 0 points, let alone 3.

Seems like long hard looks and deep thoughts as to what didn't work and how to rectify it are the order of the day. Do that and dig deep before Folkestone arrive and we may well keep the points momentum going.

Football life could be worse however. Amazing as it might sound the Crapauds still seem to think following Gibraltar to FIFA's World Cup wonderland is the way to go. One of the requirements for admission to that 'elite club' is an 8000 all seater stadium.Bearing in mind the JFA couldn't get planning permission for a 6 foot wooden fence around Springfield, don't expect to see the Crapauds playing the Faroe Islands any time soon.

Despiete a price tag of well in excess of £500k yet to hear a good word about the new artificial Springfield.

Players complain of the burns cause by the artificial surface. Fans moan about the lack of viewing opportunitites. Doesn't seem to be a stadium fit to host the Muratti if you ask me.

Keep it Green

Allez les Verts!!
