I honestly have no idea how Tranmere are doing, so really don't know what to expect on Friday. We were decent on Saturday in our defeat at MK, but we seem to be set up tactically as a team that is more suited to playing away. I suspect it'll be a draw, but really I'm just guessing.

This comes back to my point about it having to have a history to it to make it more than a rivalry. Until we got promoted to the Football League in 1999, we played Gloucester City every season - getting crowds of over 2,500 in the Southern League in the 1990s (the Boxing Day game at Meadow Park...

I think the difference between Derby and local rivalry simply comes down to historical factors. I don't buy into it having to be a single city thing - Cheltenham's a town for a start and by that definition our derby would be against Cheltenham Saracens, a team in the Hellenic League. I've...

I've always wondered why Aldridge never managed another team - he always seemed to do quite well at Tranmere.

458 Robins at MK today - many more than I was expecting

I like this idea, two jump out immediately, but there can be a lot of discussion with the other two. The easy two first then: Steve Cotterill It goes without saying that without this guy, we would still be a mediocre non-league team. He took us from the Southern League to the third tier and...

And the other was against the greatest managerial duo ever in the Cowleys. Just give us the title now tbf.

To be fair - one was against a League 1 team. And we've been shite so far this season.

MK Dons away. God only knows what will happen - we've won our last 3 away games, but two of them were Carlisle and Colchester. I'm not expecting anything myself, but stranger things have happened.

We've had 14 goalscorers - I don't think it means shit to be honest.

Bang on

Two points dropped for us yesterday, especially after Bromley went down to 10 men. We got ahead by playing some decent football, then played right into their hands for the rest of the game - lobbing the ball up to George Miller who was playing on his own against two of the biggest...

It was ITV that used to have Central Soccer Special on a Sunday. I remember that game vividly - I watched it at my Nan's house. It's on Youtube I think - in fact, I'm quite sure I've posted it on here or another thread at some point. EDIT: Here it is -

It's a long, arduous task, but kids come round eventually (if they like football). My 18 year old came for a couple of years, but he only liked playing football. He now has no interest. My 14 year old took a decent amount of work though - he started coming at 6 years old as a regular, but he...

No idea what to expect from Bromley to be honest. They started well, then couldn't win, before shocking Donny away. We seem to have found a bit of form now though and the spirit in the camp is the best it's been all season. Not sure I'm comfortable going into a game as favourites though.

3 games - 3 wins against Harrogate.

Bloody love the FA Cup

30 secs in - bald lad goes over Caines leg. Clear pen.

Sounds familiar

I mean, you should have had a pen in the first half and that could have changed the whole outcome. But we don't talk about that....
