Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (h)

Great win and a great performance. Mukairu was a real handful and thoroughly deserved his goal. Defensively solid as well with Bindon and Holmes outstanding. Vital three points given other results. Still not quite sure what Savage offers to the team, but looking forward to Saturday. Savage isn’t a ...

Re: Do you agree with todays pitch invasion and match abandonment?

Saw a Facebook post somewhere that suggested a boycott of a future home game, but protesting to continue outside. How about a partial boycott and entering the stadium starting in the 16th minute?

Ah well if he’s involved that would make the deal simply irresistible.

Re: Football pub quiz questions

I remember this one from a few years ago: British cities that have had more than one team appear in the European Cup semi-finals. Answer was (now) Manchester (City, Utd), London (Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs), Glasgow (Celtic, Rangers), and...Dundee & Dundee Utd :shock:

Re: MATCHWATCH : Swindon Town (h)

I have always regarded Sw*ndon as the deadliest local rivals and got that from my uncles at a very early age. Also, regular games against them stretch back to the late-19th century Southern League days, long before the Sh!ts and O*ford. Fond memories of victories at a packed Elm Park in '67; Archie'...

Re: BTFG Cambridge

Was at the game and my thoughts are that Elliott has to play more centrally. On top of that, I was rather bemused by his substitution as I thought he was a threat. Also puzzled by Wifi's omission as he made a real difference when he came on. The left side concerns me: Carson is just not ready yet as...

Re: The Non - League thread

Windsor & Eton 6 Slough Heating 0. Crowd of 400+ at the Stag. Great atmosphere, very entertaining and W&E well worth the big win. Front three - including a new no. 9 - were just mustard and it could have been more. They will rip up this league if they keep that up.

Re: BFTG Stevenage

There will be sterner tests to come, but Bindon looked as impressive a centre back I have seen since Dariusz Wdowczyk. So calm and collected on the ball and rarely went to ground. A burgeoning partnership with Abbey promises much. Will be a good test for them both at Exeter next week. Wifi deserved ...

Re: BFTG - Cheltenham

Maybe the start of a new era tonight and the kids were great. Vickers is a talent and Carson looks a real find at LB, Bindon was coolness personified; Abbey was exceptional and looks a natural leader. However, our second half performances have been worrying and each of the three league games to date...

Just to be clear, Wimbledon Stadium (also on Plough Lane) was used exclusively for speedway and greyhounds. A big old stadium as well and once held 42,000. Saw the Racers there and also the Wills Internationale, which was one of the most prestigious individual meetings of the 70s. Wimbledon FC playe...
