Only bad part of Thomasville I seen on game on you tube is up front they are not strong. Seen QB make mistakes if you got good rush on him

O line blocks straight forward, no pulls that I could see. Hard to make holes like that...
I seen Thomasville against Salisbury...but i guess it's hard to look good against them...But they did not.
Do I really think Thomasville’s going to win this game? Not really but it’s definitely going to be close. Weather going to be major factor I’m scared and while the line is improved from years past it still isn’t where it needs to be. I’m still gonna brag on the boys though and say we’re going to win. What kind of fan would I be (or any of us be) if we didn’t say our team was going to win?
I'd hate to be the players in these conditions. Much less a fan on the stands. Better tighten up and wear your cold weather bib overalls.
I don't know what it is about that stadium but I've left the house and think well won't be to bad and feel 10°+ colder once there it's usually a bit windier. Planning of bring my little propane heater might find an additional use of a covid mask might put one on to keep the face warm lol , those young healthy boys running around the field can probably take it better than some of us can sitting in chair.
I played there in 11th grade in playoffs and could cared less about the game it was that cold. Very miserable! And the ride up there in those curves wears you out.
Traditionally, Memorial Stadium in Ledger has been a tough place to play for visitors. The Mountaineers are 42-5 at home since 2015. They are 15-0 since the 3rd round loss to Murphy in 2018.
Sounds like the visitors better apply for the closest hotel room available to get to warmth.
Didn't know that...and that "loss" wasn't without it's controversies.
Mountain weather, mountain football, mountain tough team, Mitchell by 14.
After watching on YouTube some of the East Davison at Thomasville game if that's all that usually comes to a home game I'm not expecting many visitors.
Is it possible that this is a numerical error? A third-round game should include 500-1000 people, except the newborn, elders, and others who do not follow football. What is the level of football support in your area?
You won’t get that many from Thomasville on a trip that long. Ten years ago, but not today. Too many other options, expensive gas, aging of many of the diehard boosters. A shame, but that’s where we are.
And frankly, a lot of folks probably thought the East game would be an easy win. Add to it that tickets were online only, and you get a thousand on the home side instead of a packed house.
Lmao 50???? Lmbo! 50 boy y'all support them dogs!!!! That's sad!!!!!
Kinda sad...cause Mitchell really travels well regardless...but they're home.
Very sad -but it is what is, we will blow this team off the field with 50 fans or 2.
Thomasville lost a lot of community support between Coach Brown and Coach Robertson. Poor play and records, participation down. Behavior issues on and off the field. Throw in COVID, online tickets and the aging of the strong booster group and home attendance fell off significantly.
Add in a long ride and high gas prices. Frigid weather. Many of the Thomasville supporters don’t have a reliable car or money for gas for that trip.
Those aren’t excuses. That’s the dynamic we’re dealing with in Thomasville. The school system has a high poverty rate. The three or four hundred middle class diehards of a decade ago have either died or moved on to other things.
I agree that it’s unfortunate.
Most mountain schools are where Thomasville was ten years ago. The game was the only thing in town. It’s been an eye opener how quickly that can change.

Thomasville slams Forbush
Forbush slams Starmount
Starmount slams Andrews
Andrews slams Mitchell
Any logic here ?

Probably no more the East Davison beats Thomasville, Thomasville does slam North Rowan and North Rowan beats East Davison...and I'm getting into the whole Andrews game again you're welcome to go back and read the other threads on it.
Mitchell must have been in a fog against andrews like Tville was against east. I’m sure it was just as painful as ours was-
And BTW all my smack talk is for fun -
Third Round?
That Mayor, those commissioners, County leaders, Major business owners, and many more should be among those "celebrities" attending this "what should be standing audience atmosphere"
The mayor may be there. The county commissioners don’t give a rat’s patootie aboutThomasville. There are two school systems just within the Thomasville city limits. And at least nine public schools in the county. As for major business owners, few of them live in Thomasville.
That's a shame wait till you see our crowd, probably same Yancey and Avery people too, we're lucky we have community support that's 50% of it
How do you have 14 rings? Taking credit for at least 11 you didn't earn ain't you?
Slams ? What is considered slammed
Starmount beat Andrews by 7 in OT !
Andrews beat Mitchell by 10 !
I don’t call that being slammed
I can’t speak about those other games
I'm still disappointed your season ended, I do think your program is on the up and up gonna be tough next year
