Another thing to pick up on is the ridiculous amount of time being added on, think it was 6 first half and 8 second half? Games are now going to be atleast 100+ minutes but still have to work off 3 subs from 5 instead of the the league above. Southend vs Oldham was +10minutes. Has to be factored in the volume of time wasting that goes on at this level. Borehamwood Eastleigh Solihull FC Halifax Bromley To name a few last season guilty of excessive time wasting is only going th cause additional minutes to be played

Yes, the fact that time in being added on for everything may mean a change in Mr B's tactics, holding on to a 1-0 lead for the rest of the game may not be so easy now.
As a spectator, am I happier with having to allow 15 minutes more at the end of every game (which can affect travel plans) on the off-chance that I will get more 'value for money', or would I rather see rule changes which eradicate/limit irritating things like timewasting/goal celebrations/dissent which cause the extra time anyway? I think the latter. Yellow cards will get the message through eventually.
Last season at the Silverlake I remember Yeovil and Barnet indulging in a lot of timewasting (sorry, 'game management').

Will be finishing after 10pm for most midweeks now especially on the 25th when we sh*thouse our way to 3pts

Hopefully not, here hoping our embargo lifted we have new additions. Cav Miley scores the winner and Hilly isn’t reported for abusing our commercial guys again. If it goes on till 10pm, might see you there. If you guys bring more than 40 Southend vs Oldham was +10minutes. Has to be factored in the volume of time wasting that goes on at this level.

To be fair one of LB tactics has been to slow the game let’s be honest and time waste, the players did it a lot last season.
What happened? He did look flustered when we played you last season.
Hopefully Cav won’t score against us, but the best team wins on the day.

......But I strongly object when some idiot starts calling our manager a coward and calling for his head after the first game of the season. Who the F do you think you are? Hopefully you will apologise to Lee Bradbury for calling him a coward but I suspect you won't, I wonder why? Obviously not referring to me - I've been calling for his head since the first game of LAST season!!!! But I do think he' scared of losing, and I would say that too his face!!

Frustrating not to win having come so close, but am taking it as a positive & we played pretty well and only got a point.
Hopefully we can do the business in the couple of home games we have coming up.
I think we didn’t drop a point at home from winning positions until right near the end of last season, hopefully a good omen!

Someone correct me if l am wrong but, l thought Bradderz was a striker in his playing days, so you would think he would be a lot more gung ho and adventurous with his forward play , actually going for goal more often. As was often said in days of yore,a faint heart never won a fair lady, ain t that the truth

Although from the games I saw last season I did not think Lee Bradbury's football last season was as defensive minded as others regard it I am not sure that having an attacking role as a player means that teams you manage will necessarily play more attacking football as a result. Arsenal once scored 40 and conceded 38 goals in a 42 game league season and they were managed by someone who was a striker/attacking midfield player in his playing days.
Stewart categorically said at the fans forum where he answered the majority of questions from the floor, that last season lee Bradbury had a lower half of the table budget, but although we did better than our budget would indicate some people are of the opinion that we could have got more out of the players we had at our disposal.

This currently looks like a great point 10 days on

Just looking at the table, Solihull & Barnet won both other games age Wealdstone got a win a draw.
Guess that makes our return so far of 3 points look better than one might think at first glance
