Not in this country, no (played in New Zealand I think). RR sums him up well, would not want to play against him. Interestingly* the referee also ref’d the Torquay-Slough game where Ben got sent off earlier this season.
Very poor performance from Reading, sadly. Didn't really get going at all. It'll probably be a good learning experience, in terms of where it's a good idea to pass the ball around or try little stepovers, and where it's not. The frustrating thing is when they looked to get at Slough with pace, they...
FAO Four of Clubs , loving your work as ever, it's once again been invaluable in keeping us up to date with the comings and goings of the non-league world. I'll be in Truro this weekend, finishing the Slough Town season in style, still with the faintest of hopes of a play-off spot although in truth ...
Windsor 0-4 Longlevens Very poor performance today against lowly opposition. The wind was ridiculous but they beat us 2-0 in each half with and without the wind. No Dan Roberts today - he was playing for Slough. I guess the next (and last) time we will see him in the Windsor shirt will be the Chall...
Slough have signed Tommy Wood on loan from AFC Wimbledon, and Dan Roberts on dual-reg from Windsor (to have a look at him from time to time by the sounds of it). Yep, Dan Roberts is a very decent striker at our level but he’s not in Ben Harris’ class so don’t think he will be good enough for Slough...

I went to Bristol Manor Farm 1 - 2 Highworth Town on Saturday. Its the closet a train line comes to a football ground. The Bristol TM - Sevenbeach line runs almost down the touchline. there is only enough room for one to stand in front of the railway fence. So there was me, poised with camera in ha...
I am probably the only Windsor supporter pleased to see Slough go through. Great achievement. Maybe we will match them one day! Maybe. Absolutely marvellous evening, despite the weather. Cracking game, good crowd, decent sing-song and I finally saw Slough win a penalty shoot-out! (I missed the B&am...
Saw Slough beat Oxford City 2-0. Thought Slough were the better side throughout and should have had a couple before Oxford had their captain sent off for a debatable professional foul just before half time. Impressed with their Lee Togwell, James Dobson and Matty Edwards (?, the no. 9). Thought Oxf...
Mon 7th May BH SLP PO King's Lynn Town 1-2 Slough Town – att 2842 Manny Williams winner on 89’ - start delayed for 1/2 hr to get the large crowd in. Amazing day - it felt like a lot more than 2,800 there, with huge queues to get in, to use the 'facilities', and for beer/food as well. The Heras fenc...
Out of interest, what happened to Ben Harris? Crocked? I notice he never seemed to play full 90mins. ...reportedly bad hamstring injury in 4-0 win over Redditch at the start of last month. STFC website states he may be back in the squad for next week's trip to Bps Stortford. Yep, hammy problems abo...
Slough Town 2-1 Frome Town Slough battered them in the 2nd half and should have scored 4 or 5. Not convinced they will succeed in the play offs unless they get home games. Bit lightweight at the back for me. Nice to win when behind at half time, that’s for sure. Interesting comment re: lightweight ...
As previously mentioned Bracknell have a 3G pitch. I’m not sure how much they cost but they have football on there most of the time now. I think Slough to make big revenue on theirs although I believe they are expensive to hire. Christof would know better than me but I don’t think Slough FC make a ...
3G is the future, the FA need to grasp this, and promote it especially for places that suffer from poor drainage like Biggleswade, St Ives etc. What do you want or expect from the FA? I expect the authorities to see the benefits of football clubs having decent all-weather pitches that can be used f...
Is it correct that all of Slough's 7 games in hand are away? That's pretty remarkable. A while until postponements become less likely :shock: Not quite (played 22 so far, 13 at home and 9 away). The postponements have been due to clashes with Cup games or weather-related, and every weather-related ...
25 Maldon & Tiptree 1-4 Slough Town - Plan B for us yesterday saw us witness a comfortable win for the Rebels at the ‘Jammers’ - original first choice Hayward H v Sevenoaks in the Vase was washed out. Journey OK – ground seemingly upgraded in recent season’s pleasant enough ‘new-build’ on the E...
Best performance I can ever remember from Slough. Gainsborough was nice (very provincial). Now for Monday evening's draw :) What's the chances of getting a ticket for the Rochdale game? Sorry to be a bandwaggon hopper but would like to go to that! Any chance it might be on the telly I wonder? How m...
