Thanks Steve for everything you have done for the club. I have been a member for over 17 years. Living in the North of England, it was rare for me to get a chance to watch them. Even rarer for me to get to a home game. So I did it as a way of investing in the club. I'll hold off cancelling my standi...

When I first moved to the North East, it really surprised me the first time I heard when one lass referred to another lass as man, saying "Give over, Man!"

Of course, PLOP rules OK!

I am confused. I had 48 points before Tranmere and 45 points before Bristol Rovers. Surely I am on 51 points before Colchester?

Ooh, discrepancy! I use Google as it's easier to just Google it, and it says 67. I wonder who's correct?! :lol: Just seen a clip of the goal with the clock on the screen and Hutch scored on 65:56, so 66 is indeed correct. A black mark for the worlds most used website and search engine. I am impress...

Draw 1-1 Bickerstaff 64 mins 0 I was only 2 minutes out on the time the goal was scored. Are no points awarded for being that close? 3 minutes out, actually...:lol: But yeah, I missed it. Points added. I did check first on the BBC website and that shows 66 minutes! :-) https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/f...

i agree it was a very poorly worded question. Does it show up the lack of business acumen of the shadow board?

A really good read. He certainly has been involved with a lot of clubs! About 12 or so.

Yes, they were at PRE.

Red Duke

Interesting advice about taking penalties at the Prestbury Road end. I didn't realise how much the slope can affect things as seen by Tottenham's fourth penalty. It went sailing over the bar.

In the 1960's, gettng to the first round of the cup was an achievement. One game sticks in my mind was Cheltenham 3 Enfield 6 back in 1962 as it was the first game that I went on my own. I was 9 at the time. (Would you be allowed to do that today?). 2-0 up after a few minutes, goalie injured (no sub...

I think it was a shot by Taylor, one defender tried to clear it, hit Aden Flint, hit the upright and then over the line.

When I read the headline, I was expecting something about the game against Tottenham! I had forgotten we are even playing but that's a dead rubber and we will field a full reserve team so we are fresh for Bradford. I assume it will be the same as the last game in this competition except Day will be...

I think I should be on 42 pts as I had 36 before Newport and I achieved 6 for predicting a win and a 2-0 score line.

I’d love to know what their business model was. Even if they won promotion there’d be no pot of gold, the stakes just get higher. And part of their £8m loss was attributed to bonuses paid to players per point, so a successful season in L1 would have likely brought bigger losses. It does make you wo...

Just a month after making his Town debut in our late heartbreak at Salford, Alex Chilowicz returns to take charge of our latest, always joyful, trip to Kent this weekend. A reminder that Alex is from the USA and a very experience MLS referee. He joined the EFL list after moving to the UK a couple o...

Halliwell putting all the blame for losing 7-1 on Pell and Angol. Even if they hadn't, it would have probably ended 5-1. Change needed at BBC Gloucestershire. Don't agree. Both were responsible for the defeat or should it be irresponsible? The finger of blame points directly at them. Pell was in pa...

The worse bit was that the Police know they are victims of fraud but have insufficient evidence to convict. So HMRC is pursuing them for the unpaid tax rather than the fraudsters. Standard HMRC practice. Much akin to the 'Loan scandal'. The companies that sold and advised on the schemes (and made m...

Yes sorry Redbridge and co may have been ONLY 7!!! Another bad one was 6-3 home defeat to Enfield in FA cup (4th qualifier I think) Billy Lamont in goal for us was injured They were top "amateur side in country at time and hadn't they just won amateur cup final? 1963 at a guess! For the best.....
