    I don't know if I'm making this up but don't Wimbeldon refuse to play on TV vs MK to ensure they don't get any TV money?

    FA Cup 2024/25

    Hardly a surprise Wrexham has been picked sadly, despite it being a dead game. Was half expecting our game to get picked up but we never seem to be favourable in cup tournaments. Our Carabao Quarter Final against Man United didn't even get selected for TV, must be one of the few Man U cup games...

    Never sure what to expect from us. After 3 games in a row looking like the worst side in the division we were excellent against Birmingham. Our dip in form seems to have coincided with Stockport's. Will be a very important game if we want to be aiming for playoffs this season. Conor Coventry was...

    Southend away is a good tie for us, relatively local. Macauley Bonne guaranteed to score for them

    I can understand the desire to play Stansfield up top but it does completely nullify May, whereas at least Stansfield can play that role behind. Was surprised but pleased May went off because he can always get a goal out of nowhere

    Davies will have his first proper challenge as a manager now. The blueprint is there for other teams, mark Paik and Iwata out the game and Birmingham have no plan B, they created nothing. It's easy to call it a rare off day but to get it so tactically wrong against a side off the back of 3...

    Funny how quickly things can change in football. After an abysmal performance midweek against Bristol Rovers, we put in our best performance of the season today. Every single player was fantastic today. Frustrating the standard has been so poor from the same players and manager in the last few...

    Barring a massive change in playstyle, this won't be a tough test. We are woeful all over the pitch. I expect Jones to make a lot of changes but that's likely to just cause more disruption

    When we played Birmingham in the Carabao, we played really well and were unlucky with the 1-0 loss. We've regressed so far since then and I expect us to lose comfortably without much of a fight. Icing on the top of the cake will be when Alfie May inevitably scores

    There's definitely more stability from the new owners who came in last season but you never know with owners it can go tits up rapidly. Things won't fix themselves overnight but to consistently hovering around the clubs worst ever finish is never fun.

    Charlton lose close to £1m a month, we don't own the stadium at yet somehow the club was bought for £12m last season - makes 0 sense.

    Congrats, you're now level on points with the team that scraped 16th place last season

    I've come to accept our status as a mid table league one club now. 8 of the last 9 seasons. Apart from one season with Bowyer it's been a bleak decade.

    Apart from the Bolton game, we've been pretty poor in most games but have managed to hold firm and nick a goal. In the game against you, you score two cracking goals to go 2-0 up. We give up too much space on the edge of the box, allowing teams to shoot. We've conceded a fair few from distance...

    Half the league is our bogey team now. We've been playing like that for a while now so a result like that was always coming. 3-2 scoreline glosses over how poor and unentertaining that game was and us scoring 2 late papers over the cracks of our inability to attack. You definitely deserved the...

    Dreadful game between two dreadful sides but Rovers are much less dreadful than us. We weren’t great at the start of the season but at least there was some fight and energy in the players. That’s completely gone now. I hate football, we are cursed as a club

    We seem to regress every game. Keep playing like this and we actually will be down the bottom end of the table as we simply won’t score. Tactics need a rejig massively. Wingbacks not getting forward, no midfield and aimless lumps to no one is our game plan. We are completely ineffective in...

    We shall see. Our problem all season has been a complete lack of creativity. Earlier on in the season we pressed well, forced sides into mistakes and capitalised to score. Now we have the double whammy of no creativity and for whatever reason we are no longer doing our press. Hopefully we take...
