Sinkov, sorry to see that your lads didn't make it last night although, from what you said on the other thread, it seems that they gave it a good go. Never mind, you can follow Ashington's progress although I don't think that that will extend beyond 15 October, but you never know.
It was a good win for us on Tuesday and all helped by the fact that we were 2-0 up in the first 10 minutes, one of them was a 30 yard screamer from a lad who used to be in Newcastle's Academy. Finished up 3-0 with a record attendance at the ground of 1424.
Off to Kings Lynn they go but I shall miss it because my son and his wife are visiting from Wednesday to Sunday next week so I shall be staying at home , although we may take in the Blyth Spartans v Wrexham tie.

It was going to be done though, BT. Just a reminder of my days in business going off to buy books. Ashington Supporters Club have already filled 2 buses at £28 per head and it is likely that they will try for a third. Good to note that Kings Lynn have reduced their prices quite a lot and admission is £10 per adult, either sitting or standing and £1 for juniors. Chorley play them this week and prices range from £10 for juniors to £19 for adults.

Frustrating Sub, we should have won it, to be honest it was as one sided a game as you're likely to see and we somehow end up on the wrong end of 2-0. Our player-manager centre-half was out injured and badly missed, especially at the numerous corners, the lad who came on in front of us at Stan, a winger playing right-back, who I said is never a full back in this world, he's just called it a day after a re-currence of a serious injury at Rammy, so the depleted squad is even more depleted and Marske rock up on Saturday. Ah well, you never know.

Happy days at Ashington, some serious money being made now, do you no harm as you look like going up this season. Was it the black lad playing just in front of the back four who scored the 30 yarder, can't remember if you said he was ex-Newcastle or not. Will Ken be going down to Kings Lynn ? No more questions.

That is a shame when you have been doing well because players are never easy to replace during the season. Very hard game for you on Saturday although they lost at Shields in the FA Cup last weekend 2-5, this could be a spur for them this week. Good luck, I shall be looking out for your score ---as will Ken!
It was the lad you thought, Yannick Aziakonou, who scored the screamer. He was brilliant down at Stocksbrige in the first game, his workrate was fantastic and he broke up so many opposition moves but he was even better on Tuesday night and that goal after just 4 minutes really set us on our way.
Ken is suffering with man 'flu at the moment and hasn't been to a game for almost 2 weeks although he is hoping to be at Ashington this weekeend. He has not committed to Kings Lynn yet because he does enjoy travelling with me and we have some great craic. The supporters bus will definitely be rowdy and you could be unlucky and have to get on the drummer's bus ----he then bloody keeps hitting it periodically and gets egged on by his mates! Not for me or Ken, I can assure you! I will be happy if he makes this weekend!

Just a footnote. If any of you ever go to Stocksbridge I will heartily recommend Crawshaw's steak pie, mushy peas and gravy ---the meat is plentiful and really good ----I had two! Good luck this weekend.
