He did - there was nothing wrong with his play today. :| He's one of our most improved players. I think he's been one of our better players this season too. Unfortunately, that same detail rather illustrates why we are going down. I don't agree with all the comments about players putting no effort ...

Woodford United 1-2 Godalming Town - Woodford led 1-0 with 20’left. Final season record P42 L42 F 21 A 185 GD -164 – must be the first nil point haul at this level for a very long time (excluding pts deductions etc – I’m sure there’ll be a like-minded Anorak or two who’ve posted up somewhere the la...

St. Brynjar Only a matter of time before Australia gets a world cup.

No chance. They don't have the political clout to make people think its worth their while voting for them.

Sad to see Aldershot like this and they should of never got in this mess. Aldershot had 15 years of being a "big fish", and didn't really do amazingly well with the advantages they had over nearly everyone for most of that time. They get to the league though, and they weren't a big fish a...

like many,football fans in aldershot are feeling the pinch and can no longer justify the expense of attending football matches.it is nothing to do with apathy. Strange that other teams in similar situations right now can get supporters for the big games. You're right though. It's not to do with apa...

Probably a separate discussion but I also wonder how much w8 these online petitions carry anyway. very little because the response to them is usually pathetic. The big one pushing for a return of terracing, an idea that seems very popular among fans, only got about 15000 signatures. That's probably...

Chelsea fans and Turks together.

Could be a fun evening.

Oddly I'd chose the opening day draw with Stoke. Playing a team traditionally poor away, and no more than average overall, we worked our socks off and were still comfortably 2nd best to a team who barely looked like they were breaking into a sweat. It had the hallmarks of relegation stamped all ove...

RedRum I admire and envy German football at the moment.

Very cheap, great atmospheres and great football.

It's not as cheap as people think. Only terracing is cheap. Seats are 15.30 euros at Dortmund, but seats are 29-50 euros.

Secondly with regard to non league, there's an interesting blog post here http://www.thefootballramble.com/indepth/entry/the-myth-of-non-league-affordability which sums it up rather nicely. Is paying £18 to watch Luton, £12 to watch Welling, Sutton United or Hayes & Yeading really better value ...

It's not handball, it's a specific offence. Laws of the game state it to be an indirect freekick, and that's that. I'm not sure why we're arguing. Because some people aren't paying attention and don't know the law. Phil Dowd included it seems. worse still is that Townsend-itis - where the afflicted...

St. Brynjar There's no point looking for a scapegoat.

I'm not so sure. In fact I blame the scapegoat for most of the mess.

As to the money being circulated through the organisation it would be naive to think that doesn't happen.. No. It would be naive to assume losses = money being taken out of the club. just as it does at many other clubs. Really? Which clubs? The issue is that an owner who is a fan of the game has a ...

Well first of all I am not going to address strawmen. I have at no point suggested that SJM personally trousered the money. And I have made clear that I think no fraudulent activity has gone on. What I said was that for SJM his involvement was not out of any love of the game..and he has said so him...

soggy biscuit Genuine pic from tonight apparently.

I'm sure I've seen that before, so no, sadly.

Nope failed to prepare again. We had a better chance/opportunity than 2005/6/7/8 and f/cked it up. I can't see how we had a better opportunity than in 2006. We had a great team that year, effectively a premier league quality team in the championship. It ought to have been the platform for a decent ...

Yellowcoat Interesting that in an earlier report Oliver Holt was there and passing comment on twitter about stewarding. Trust him to stir it up!

He's a Stockport fan, so it's nice to know he's really pissed off this season.

Alexander Litvinenko I do. Typically the pattern would be go with parents and be around the Tilehurst End or the angle of South Bank/Tilehurst End.
.

You could see them at most games, bored with the on-field action, playing there own games of football with a plastic cup on empty parts of the terracing.
