You've now encountered The Tribal Chief. He is based in the States and has firm views at times!

They love their soccer dont they!

Hummus is alright.

Really old boy? I find it makes me fart imposingly and extensively, don't you know? Hummus? Schmummus....

 

[Sandbach Shrimper]

Kendall for Walker the only change.

Yep, although he was a long way from our goal when he did it. Here's the highlights:

Why is Josh Widdicombe doing commentary for FGR?

Anyone planning to be in the city to watch it? And more crucially, anyone know any pubs who might actually agree to show it?

I'll think you'll struggle to get an establishment to screen our game over the Europa Cup Final.

Grass routes football wins over some euro nonsense. We will see a game Wednesday that could stay with us forever. Non glory supporters league!

Stop trying to make friends. Unbelievably, the reason I support Southend is because I was born and raised there, you two bob ponce.

And despite moving to the home of the brave and the land of the free he's lost none of that Old World Cluny Square charm....

I think Goodliffe is important in this game, any one of FGR forwards are big lumps that like a physical game, Goodliffe will be the one competing with them, the second half and all extra time against Rochdale he didn’t lose a header

I've only visited Cluny Square to buy drugs from a very polite Somalian. Would recommend.

Just looked this info up on the offical FA site as no one has posted it anywhere on our forums.

Stephen Cotterill, Manager, Forest Green Rovers FC

Forest Green Rovers FC v Tamworth FC

Stephen Cotterill admits the charge and elects a paper hearing

RESULT

So we will be without the manger for this game also. At half time we will be passing a hat around so please give generously to help with the fine as no one at FGR has two pennies to rub together! Thanks in advance.
