I still don't think any football toilets come close for hideousness than the old Gillingham away end which had a wall with a trough at the bottom that had a partial cover. I remember once being there in the rain and not knowing whether the pool of water surrounding the wall was piss or...
Nope.
Got a frisk from some security types before the gate, then came the people who were meant to be checking print outs/phones but you could just walk past them, as I and many others did, nobody called anybody back or made a fuss about people just walking in unchecked.
The terrace was a right...
In real time I don't think these two tackles are even comparable, the one in the Stockport game is a red card for me, clearly off the ground, clearly makes full contact with the shin of the player studs up.
The one in the Weymouth game he is not clearly off the ground coming in from the side...
Thought we were well worth that win. 1st half dominated, Woking didn't look like they knew a football match was even going on. Credit to their manager though, two subs at half time, completely changed their set up and they looked a different team.
They scored a looped deflection and get a...
Seen him twice in Southend-Peterborough games, went into the games thinking, christ we better not let Tomlin run the show but there was actually no danger of it because he was that unfit. I'd also say you can't count on him to come off the bench and change a game if you want 20 minutes out of...
We've won once at Grimsby - 1987. We've never won at their friends from Scunthorpe current ground, but actually had an okay record at the Old Show Ground, including a 6-1 win in the 80s.
Even when we're stable off the field we very rarely do mid-table seasons. Think I saw as well that over the past 40 years only Bolton have moved between divisions more than us. History says we won't be in this division long, just have to hope we don't sink further!
Can only speak from a Southend viewpoint but I actually think it's been getting worse since around 2017-18. There was a noticeable rise around then in the people I call 'The Children' following the club, the late teens, early 20 something pissed up types, usually wearing all black and not...
I think if Ron wasn't the owner we'd have a chance with Barratt, as it is I think he'd rather go anywhere else. He looked decent for us before he got a terrible injury and look good enough for League 1 when he came back but he was one who suffered at the hands of Ron's lack of funding. If his...
Surely they've just counted extra staff that come along to games and family members, I can't believe BWood have 30 supporters total, let alone 30 that would go to Halifax on a Tuesday night,
Excellent attendance and it seems you have Ebbsfleet's number again, if either or you can't catch Dorking (and please, someone catch Dorking) you must be keeping your fingers crossed to make it to the playoff final and face them again.
Thank christ you won a game before Southend come to you on Saturday!
oh and can we automatically relegate Eastleigh, they lost to us when we were utter, utter tripe and now they've managed to lose to Dover, quite clearly they are the worst team in the league.
More than deserved a point tonight but we just don't have enough quality or cutting edge to get through two banks of four solid lines.
First half we must have had 70% odd possession, did fuck all with it, Aldershot have one attack and score, typical!
2nd half I thought was a bit more even, again...
Pleasing to hear. I'm sure Man Utd will keep loaning him out for a couple more seasons, hopefully he can keep progressing through the leagues, he was solid enough for us in League One, if you do go up maybe he'll come back next season.
I've seen him play twice and in both games he was exactly this in game. I've never ever seen a performance from one player that could be summed up with the words 'a game of two halves' other than his against Southend for Crawley in the FA Cup a few years back. First half he was atrocious, and I...
