This is exactly what we've been crying out for. An experienced big man upfront who also gets goals, and bonus points for having played under LR. Great signing. He might be tall, but I'm not sure he's a stereotypical 'big man'. Last couple of seasons he's only been winning 25% of headers. Even when ...

Sunday 7th September away to Beaconsfield Town

Worst bit of this league is having to remember to check for fixtures

James Henry having a ball at Aldersh0t, 5 goals in 6 games thus far. Got nothing out of the Dale who had Ryan East in centre mid. Josh Barrett came on for Aldershit in last 20. Showed that potential, but was blowing after 2 minutes, looked like a pub footballer and moved at that pace. Shame, as the...

kwik-silva Is Alexander injured?

Yes- should be back in a week or 2

Thanks! Assumed she must be but must have missed where they spoke about it!

Is Alexander injured?

Another 4 figure crowd is good news…obviously we’ll get more for the Chelseas, Arsenals, United etc…but the numbers are steadily trending upwards for the ‘less popular’ teams. Would be nice if there was any cross-promotion between teams at all. Doesn't feel like the club is a cohesive unit, still v...

We have a good squad, but we really miss Rose going forward. Her pace and trickery have been sorely lacking this season. That and the fact we’ve shipped goals for fun at times has made it tough going. Last few games the defence has looked much better. Mayi Kith has looked rock solid in defence in l...

I feel like I come away from WSL matches thinking that we never quite live up to how we could play, but we're at the point in the season where as long as we keep picking up points I won't mind too much!

The "problem" with a six-point deduction this season is it will be water off a duck's back. It's very, VERY unlikely to take us down So, IF we are penalised this season, I think it will be 12+ If it's just 6 points, I think it would be applied next year. There are rules around when a puni...

12 point deduction would be very harsh. What we've done is nowhere near as bad as Derby who lost 21 points. We'll have lost 18 in 2 seasons. It'll be 6 points. The "problem" with a six-point deduction this season is it will be water off a duck's back. It's very, VERY unlikely to take us d...

It shouldn't, because FFP doesn't include the women's team, but they do seem to be using it as an excuse to underfund the women - Dai Yongge could make us into a superpower if he really wanted to

Cheers for that you were a great help as always. So have you read it ? It might avoid you asking questions or making assumptions that are really easy for you to check yourself . No because, believe it or not, I'm not spending my time dissecting the EFL business plan each time I comment, I'd be hopi...

She's already got about four jobs, I think she'll be okay

https://twitter.com/TimDellor/status/1631309501457395715 It’s a bit like a court handing down a year suspended sentence to a crook, and then calling the crook back into court six months later and even though they haven’t put a foot wrong sending them to prison for the original offence! I don't like...

So, we got caught breaching FFP, were docked 6 points and set a business plan to adhere to which if we didn't meet then we were to be docked another 6 points. We are now being docked 6 points for something that happened prior to the business plan being set (a period we have already been punished fo...

But I don't get the part about "not being able to get players off our books"? The EFL have signed off all of our incoming transfers which surely means we are in line with what they've said? If they've signed off some of our signings knowing it was going to go over budget (likewise we knew...

Being discussed on TalkSport now with Mike Keegan of Daily Mail In brief: Revenue coming in is fine (inc. MU Cup tie) Expenditure (wages) is possibly the issue looking at players they have League are currently reviewing accounts Knock on for other clubs (i.e. Peterborough who went down last season ...
