    Isthmian Pub Leagues 2016/17

    Thanks for the answers chaps/chapesses. I had a quick glance at the K's forum and yes, it is very entertaining. At least you have sufficient fans who care that you don't actually know the people involved. That wouldn't be the case at many clubs. We have quite a lot of passionate fans at...

    Isthmian Pub Leagues 2016/17

    Well. This thread is in a parlous state of neglect. So it needs to be bumped. I have very little to say about the Mighty Urchins, other than we are looking OK for a play off place. Maldon are far too good for the rest of us, so we'll be farting about with Thurrock, Brightlingsea and the...

    Isthmian Pub Leagues 2016/17

    My dear Paddy, do not despair. Now it is September, the cricket season is coming to a close and the 'Chins are (as normal) out of the FA Cup and therefore able to concentrate on cocking up the league again, I am prepared (at least occasionally) to crash in on your and PP's personal grief...

    Ah yes. The Lovely Lewis "hmmm, we might win this one, I think I'll get myself sent off" Smith. (Allegedly). Best not to mention him in the presence of a Hornchurch fan. Meanwhile we've decided that touring East Anglia is so much fun that we will try it again next year. Certainly getting...

    Hello my Surrey friends (and yes I include Dulwich in there as I'm old skool). Happy New Year. Thought I'd pop in and say hello, but more importantly many thanks for taking McCollin back as it seems to have firked Cray up big time (mind you, what was he doing there in the first place?). The...

    Hi Aber - long time no speak. Admit it, you just wanted to avoid us :)

    Boreham Wood away. Please cheer me up by letting me know how this could have been worse.

    FA Cup 4th Qualifying Round Draw Live on Talksport Radio on Monday

    We're just delighted to be in it still. But if we're being greedy we'll have Torquay away or Hoddesdon at home please.

    2015/16 FA Cup

    Yep - that's dullsville. We've got Phoenix Sports away - not quite as familiar as Stortford/Sutton, but still the same blinking division and therfore a bit of a let-down. But at least it gives us a reasonable chance of some more dosh before we bow out to Billericay or ETU (whom we habitually...

    Isthmian League 2015/2016

    Can't see us on it though! Report from t'North is that when we score, we score and score. And score again. If we could even out the goals a bit we'd be back up by now. Purcell and Knight are now gelling and, (as hoped but not necessarily expected), looking way too good for some of the...

    Isthmian League 2015/2016

    Yep - amazing isn't it. There were some very nice cars from Cray in the car park that's all I can say. Bit like a poor man's Robin Van Persie really.

    Isthmian League 2015/2016

    Meanwhile down in the Dog + Duck (North), some impressive prescience by PinknBlue ... as the Chins edged out Cray Galacticos 2-1 with goals by yes, Purcell and Knight (with a last minute winner). I'm not sure we deserved it, but last year we used to concede in the last minute so not...

    See also 'ornchurch, Essex - when we are part of LB Havering. And Ilford, Essex etc. Also Romford but we don't mention that place.

    Isthmian League 2015/2016

    Right - Arsenal-Chelsea on TV so I guess football can be discussed again (especially as I had top notch tickets WITH PRIVATE BAR for the 4th day at Edgbaston and am therefore FINISHED with all that willow-on-leather nonsense... at least until the next Test ;) Anyways, Barkingside away for us...

    1FF Challenge: 2015/16 Season Bets

    OK Brabin - as a one-off - will you take on Hornchurch too? (As I need to get even after the Cup defeat 12 years ago... and yes I do need to get over it!). So that would make it a possible £120. If so - I'll take you on.

    Isthmian League 2015/2016

    It was a strange season for sure ... top strikers alongside one of the best three defences in the division until the last 10 or so games... when we managed to lose 6-pointer after 6-pointer. Thing is we had no midfield. Literally (and I use the word advisedly). Still - great signings for...

    Isthmian League 2015/2016

    Meanwhile over in the East, Canvey are becoming Billericay, and Billericay are morphing into the Urchins (5 players Ricay to Canvey, including Poole & Halle, and 2 ex-Urchins [Curley & Bourne] to Billericay - so far). We've not signed anyone. So I don't think the rest of the league needs to...

    Isthmian 2014/15

    Farcical for Enfield. Seems to me they have played a straight bat so let's hope they get the nod for the playoffs. Not that they will have much chance as it has to be between Hendon and Margate. (Cue promotion for DH!).

    We are indeed down though the fat lady has not actually got her songbook out yet. So Ryman North here we come - which appears to bear an unfortunate geographical congruence with UKIP's target constituencies. I think I'll call it the Nigel Farage League. Anyway, been nice knowing you ... we...
