    Isthmian League 2015/2016

    Brentwood beating Staines 7-0? The fuck? Went to Dulwich v Billericay today. End to end stuff, entertaining game, decent ground and atmosphere (over 1500) and an all round friendly little club. Last minute winner for Dulwich too.

    Our real cup final, The Champagne Derby, Jabo v Muggleton (Carlisle v Barnet)

    You can say that again. The Shomotun situation pisses me off as most managers in this league would love to have an 18 year old with that much ability but he has yet to play this season and only made the bench once for a League Cup game.

    Our real cup final, The Champagne Derby, Jabo v Muggleton (Carlisle v Barnet)

    You're the first team we've played in the last 18 months that has been troubled by Muggleton long throws - and that includes the basement Conference teams like Dartford and Telford. Most of the time keepers just watch the flight of the ball and catch it - though your keeper's recoveries at set...

    Our real cup final, The Champagne Derby, Jabo v Muggleton (Carlisle v Barnet)

    I'm usually wary of fans of opposing teams who have just beaten us saying "you played well, don't worry". If you play well and lose then what the hell happens when you play badly? Remember people on TFF saying that to us after every game we lost under Stimson, in the end we had to sack him...

    Our real cup final, The Champagne Derby, Jabo v Muggleton (Carlisle v Barnet)

    They've both been awful in all the games they've played for us so far. I'll admit I'm a pessimist, but they're still both poor signings.

    Our real cup final, The Champagne Derby, Jabo v Muggleton (Carlisle v Barnet)

    Champion is a Conference player through and through. Batt plays like a blindfolded ostrich. Hoyte was a good signing on paper but he's an inferior RB to Yiadom who MA now insists on playing out of position. Lisbie turns 37 soon and was out injured most of last season, and now looks to be out for...

    Our real cup final, The Champagne Derby, Jabo v Muggleton (Carlisle v Barnet)

    Our pre-season recruitment was awful, only Dembele and Stephens are any good. As a unit we're a fair bit weaker than we were last season. Which signings have we made that you think are decent? Most fans right now think we'll be lucky to finish top 17, let alone top 7.

    Isthmian League 2015/2016

    Went to Staines v H&R today. Great game marred by a dislocated shoulder for the Hampton CB in the first half that needed an ambulance called out. Was surprised that both teams played decent football. Have been to many Conf South games over the past couple of years and teams are far more likely...

    Barnet vs Wycombe - First FL match at The Hive.

    For the ref's own sake I hope there wasn't an FA assessor there yesterday as he would get an absolute caning for failing to send Pierre off for shoving a player in the chest when on a booking. Jombati is a scumbag as well, rightly had a foul given against him for a clear push only to then start...

    I agree. Absolutely insane signing for a club on their budget. Would walk into the starting lineup of any other team in this league. BW have got to be a decent bet for the playoffs.

    Europa League 2015/16

    Seems like the youth team put in a better performance than the seniors did when they played. Hope West Ham go down. Very very poor representatives for English football on the European stage.

    Europa League 2015/16

    West Ham are embarrassing themselves and English football. This is the fifth consecutive game in which they've put in a performance well below par. Their discipline is an absolute disgrace and I predict that they're going to struggle badly in the league this season. They're a total shambles at...

    Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2024/25

    He was never really given a chance when with us and it was pretty much over for him when he broke his leg at the start of last season. Tricky winger but lacks end product. Think he would be useful in the Conf South but L2 is a bit much for him IMO. Who have been your opposition in these...

    Europa League 2015/16

    Can't see Aberdeen coming through that tbh. Celtic aside, the Kazakh league is genuinely stronger than the SPL, as are a whole host of other Eastern European leagues.

    Europa League 2015/16

    You could tell that West Ham were taking the piss in this competition when they only managed four in two legs against Lusitanos. Looks really poor when stacked up against how some obscure non-league standard part-timers have destroyed them: To get two men sent off in four games against...

    Europa League 2015/16

    This is genuinely shameful from West Ham. The Maltese league is Conf South standard.

    Lee Cook to Eastleigh as well. He's past it, I'm afraid.

    European Under 21 Championship

    Southgate is a dinosaur and was tactically inept throughout the tournament. He very clearly instructed the team to adopt the same creativity free approach that they have deployed in every single senior and U21 tournament in living memory. I'm fed up with the media whining on about Wilshere and...

    European Under 21 Championship

    Well said. Note how other national teams who copied tika taka have struggled. It's been disastrous for Mexico and hasn't done Japan much good either.

    European Under 21 Championship

    You're fucked if you can't even manage basic marking. A similar thing happened in the World Cup, attacking play was okay but defence absolute garbage.
