Pressure telling on Marcus Law?
Watch his post match interview from last nights defeat to Biggleswade. I'm no behavioural psychologist but he looked really tired, drained and despondent. The look of a man under intense pressure (he should try being Prime Minister). Blamed his centre backs and keeper,claimed his squad were physically too short/weak, and wants to offload a couple( don't mind if Aaron O Connor wants come to us!!!). They are expected to not just get second place but to win this league as the play offs situation will be so much more difficult to win this season. In the next 10 days they have to play Royston, Coalville and Stourbridge. I wonder what state he will be in after that run?

Re: Pressure telling on Marcus Law?
I kind of wanted them to win last night purely to take points off Biggleswade, a fellow play off contender. But the comedy value of seeing them lose and start to sweat is fantastic.
The pressure is on now - the budget and squad they have should be seeing them stroll this league, but they’re in a battle now. Makes for great viewing.
I still expect them to come good and win the league, but they are going to have to dig deep now and show a level of character I’m not sure they possess - guess we’ll see!

Following on from K*ttering selling pictures of Hoenes scoring the winner against could we not follow suit and raise money for our ground improvements by selling pictures of him receiving his Red card for diving on Tuesday. If we open it up to the rest of the league we may have enough for a new stand by the weekend!!!!

Re: Pressure telling on Marcus Law?
I had not realised that Hoeness had been sent off in additional time. Surely it could not possibly have been for cheating. Have refs at long last sussed him out? My best case scenario is that we deprive them of title on Easter Monday and then beat them again in play offs

A miserable second half was summed up when Rhys Hoenes was sent-off in stoppage-time for simulation in the penalty area after he had previously been booked for dissent.

If Elliott Sandy is to be believed on twitter then Marcus Law is bankrolling them.

Re: Pressure telling on Marcus Law?
That was an open secret to be honest - although K*ttering fans refused to believe it! I don't think he's a great manager to be honest, and if you can't win the league at a canter with that squad you don't deserve to be managing.
