We play on the road at Woking hoping that our good play from last match carries over. It will be a tough match as we are 0-2 against Woking and have been outscored 4-0 in those two meetings. I did cause a bit of a stir by calling out Hodges recently, hopefully that get him going and doesn't backfire.

I have been fined for comments about the last match and the penalty which was awarded. Tanner was injured on the play and was clearly fouled yet no call, instead a call is made against Ayres seconds later.

We host Thurrock in an FA Cup replay. I want to give the team more freedom this time around and hope they can play theirway into the next round. We are the favorites so this should be a good time to open things up. I am sitting Hodges and Forrest and changing to try a 4-5-1.

- We go to the half even at 1-1


2nd half

Penalties

- Tanner up next; he blasts it over the keeper's right shoulder 3-2
- Midfielder Jonathan Davies up next for them; he roofs it into the upper right corner 3-3

- Defender Rob Swaine up for them; he beats a diving Oakes into the left of the goal 3-4

- It comes down to this (I screwed up somehow) as Oakes is taking a kick he must score to keep us alive; he scores into the left side of the goal 4-4
- One shot for the game as midfielder Fola Orilonishe stes up, if he scores they win; he scoresover Oakes' left shoulder they win 5-4 on penalties

I am fined for commenting on a poorly reffereed match. First the offisde that was missed on their goal and then a panalty which should have been called when Hulbert was mugged and injured.


Additionally Hulbert will be out for a month with broken ribs.

We have little rest before we are on the road against struggling Boston United. They are in last place in the league and have not won in 19 games. We beat them 3-0 earlier in the season at home. We cannot let them end their streak of futility. We have a very tired team however which could work against us. I m pleased that Hodson will return and will see limited time.

We are on the road as we play at Stevenage. We tied them 1-1 earlier this season at home. We are sizable underdogs in this matchup however. I am giving Murray another start, I need to see if he has what it takes to start to take over for Oakes who is nearing the end of his career (I would like to see them split time next year). Additionally many of our 1st team starters are exhausted so I am going with a second team lineup. It will be an uphill battle but they need the time.

Thinking about going with a 4-5-1 as my strikers seem to be useless and I have a lot of depth at midfield.

I have been given a sideline suspension for one match for my comments following the match. There were three incidents where we should have been awarded a penalty and nothing was called yet our players were being handed cards in the game like they were candy.

We allow2 late goals in teh 1st half to go down 2-0 at the half. We manage to score one in the second half as Forrest scores on a misplay by the keeper but we fall 2-1 and miss out on important points.

With our loss and both the Grays and Forest Green winning we are going to be relegated and the last match is meaningless.

I have been offered a contract by Macclesfield. They want to pay me almost 4 times as much as I am currently being paid. They are also being relegated from the BSP this season.

I am not thrilled with how this team progressed and a seriously considering the offer.

I have accepted the offer from Macclesfield. I want to improve their defense as they surrendered far too many chances last season. On the positive note we will be facing alower level competition next season than they did this season. I plan on getting the back to the BSP within 2 seasons, though 1 would be ideal.

I may have made a mistake by not looking at this team's finances. I have now been handcuffed and cannot offer a contract of more than $40 a week to a player. This means I will not be able to improve the club. Hopefully we have a good enough core to get through this season.

Macclesfield Roster

GK Jonny Brain (28, England) - Our starting keeper who is quite athletic and should provide us with the confidence to play in front of him. His biggest weakness is the strength of his goal kicks, but everything between the pipes is solid. Has started 130 matches for Macclesfield over the past three seasons.

GK Ryan Moss (20, England) - I brought him up from the reserves strictly as an injury replacement if needed. I noticed in our friendlies that he can make some wonderful stops and later ruin the performance by letting in a soft goal due o being out of position.

D RC John Dempster (28, Scotland) - Very solid defender and team player. He should get plenty of opportunity to prove himself. He is entering his second season with the team and played 40 matches last season for them.

D L Adam Roberts (19, England) - Quick and fit and pretty much a reserve/backup. He played in 7 matches last season with little impact.

D C Shaun Brisley (21, England) - One of our best defenders but his major issue is that he does not have the stamina to play considerable minutes. Has started 82 matches over the past two seasons.

D C Jimmy Eagle (17, England) - On a three month loan from Boston United. He is there to provide depth. Very strong and great aerial ability.

D C Luke Oliver (28, England) - One of out better defenders but he lacks speed. Second season with the team, started 44 matches last season.

D C Michael Thomas (England) - Another player brought up frmo the reserves for depth as I tried to fix a defense that gave up far too many goals last season. He is quick and fit and may see a little playing time.

D/WB R Jimmy Williams (18, England) - Very fit and quick but not a quality defender. Another reserve brought up to add depth. Looked overmatched at times in our friendlies.

D/M L Steven Leslie (23, Scotland) - A quality player, he is quick and good at dribbling, passing and crossing. Throw in a litle flair and he should be our playmaker. Entering his third season with the club. He started 35 matches last season.

M C Scott Beckett (19, England) - Brought up from the reserves to ad depth, if he is playing we have serious injury trouble. He does have speed.

M C Richard Butcher (30, England) - Solid player with good technique. Entering his second season with the club. He played 41 matches last season with 6 goals, 3 assists and was man of the match 4 times.

M C Patrick McLoughlin (20, Northern Ireland) - Fast young player who is one of our core players. He was capped at the U19 level for Northern Ireland. Entering his second season with the club. Played in 19 matches last season.

AM RLC Tony Rigby (17, England) - On loan from Crewe for the season. Quick and a solid player with very good teamwork. Plan on giving him a chance to show his skills, as long as it is helping us.

AM RL, ST Paul Murphy (20, Ireland) - Another quick young star. He is one of our better players. He was capped at the U19 level for Ireland. Entering his second season with the club. Started 32 atches last season with 4 goals.

AM L Danny Thomas (30, England) - Speed, speed and more speed. He can create with his speed. Enteringhis 5th season with the club. Has started 152 matches in the previous 4 seasons with the club.

AM C Dwayne Samuels (20, England) - Anoter of the quick young players on the club. Entering his second season with the club. tarted 39 matches last season with 2 goals and 7 assists.

AM/F C Garreth Evans (23, England) - May be the best players on the club, very good off teh ball, verystrong, has stamina to spare, extremely athletic. Entering his 5th season with the club. Has started 156 matches in the previous 4 seasons. In those seasons he has scored 43 goals with 14 assists and 8 man of the matches.

AM/F C John Miles (29, England) - Has skill but lacks the athleticism. Entering his secnd season with the club (this time around) in his second stint with the club. Started 25 matches last season with 3 goals.

ST Nathan Eccleston (20, England) - On loan from Oldham and is single handedly raising the average value of the players on the pitch when he steps on as he is valued at close to a million. He is quick and determined and I look to give him many opportunities to shine.

ST Francis Green (31, England) - Quick and fit andgood with the ball but nothing stands out about him. Entering his 5th season with the club. In the previous 4 seasons he has started 171 matches and has scored 46 goals (including 18 in 2008/09).

GOOOOOOOOAAALLLLL!!!!! We take a 1-0 lead!
