Kid Dynamite 7318 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Anyone go last night? On that showing we wont be keeping any of our reserves at the end of their contracts, they were more than matched by a team of cloggers who were nearly just relegated from the northern conference. They ended up scraping a win on penalties. Good atmosphere last night though, right up until blyth scored anyway and all the 14 year olds fron newbiggin hall started to get a bit nasty. Taking their tops off and hoying bottles into the blyth supporters. Plebs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might've been Durham mackem toon fans like you for all you know. Understandable Tyneside negativity from you though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt 0 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 a team of cloggers who were nearly just relegated from the northern conference. "Cloggers" is the sort of description I'd expect to hear from someone who's never seen a game outside the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 The reserves are just basically the bairns these days, aren't they? They were under Allardyce anyway. Can't believe (well I can I suppose) some Toon 'fans' were trying to cause a bit of bother. Sad cunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 0 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I used to always enjoy watching the reserves in the NSC, strutting around like kings of the manor, then turning up a few years later to see the same faces out there for the non-league side.

Kid Dynamite 7318 Posted April 24, 2008 Author Share Posted April 24, 2008 (edited) a team of cloggers who were nearly just relegated from the northern conference. "Cloggers" is the sort of description I'd expect to hear from someone who's never seen a game outside the Premier League. As opposed to me whos seen probably five times as many arngrove, unibond and N.Conference games than premier league games? The majority of unibond and n.conference teams are made up of players who failed at academys or lower league clubs, usually because they were too slow or not skillful enough.

Can't believe (well I can I suppose) some Toon 'fans' were trying to cause a bit of bother. Sad cunts. The majority were under 18 tbh. Same lot that turn up for the carling cup 3rd round and pre season friendlies. All their experience of being a football fan has come from green street and football factory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 0 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Your comments simply make it sounds as though as though non-league sides are filled with players who have no natural ability and just kick people. Now if you think that's the case then fair enough, but with a pretty decent knowledge of the current Blyth squad, I'd completely disagree with your assessment. I've seen enough half decent academy players drop off the radar entirely once they stop training full time to make me realise what a challenge it is to compete at a moderate level of the game (such as the CN) while at the same time holding down a full time job (I guess for those who also coach it's a little easier).

Howay 12496 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 By Premier League standards they ARE cloggers though, amirite? To be fair DJ Campbell turned Boumsong inside out when we played Yeading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14021 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I like going to the odd League One match, there's the right combination of the odd flash of skill and sheer brutality to entertain me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well unfortunately our least cloggish like player, Robbie Dale, had an absolute shitter and should have been hauled off at half time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 0 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Well, you know what's he's like- takes blowing hot and cold to the extremes. I was thinking more players like Gildea or McCabe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
