Re: Bromley or Solihull Moors

I remember when we used to play Solihull FC and Moor Green FC in the Southern League 30 years ago. Solihull Moors are an amalgamation of those two clubs for anyone (remotely) interested. Not sure I knew that, thanks. They’ve done very well over the last 10 years or so. Some good investment and a de...

Re: Rumour season opens

Wardy must be in his early ‘70s now?
Thought he’d be enjoying his retirement?
Top bloke who spoke loads of sense even if he did clear off to Carlisle, but he did say he couldn’t take the Robins any further forward back then.

Re: Stats

Who was the team we beat 5-0 in the National League title winning season? Midweek game at WR under lights and the away supporters coach was late arriving.
About 25 got off and by the time they were in their seats we were 2-0 up and we’d only played five minutes. Much amusement prevailed.

Re: Rumour season opens

One man is being forgotten in all of this: Alfie May, he kept us in the league one with his 20+ goals a season, no Alfie no more league one. I think Alfie May owes a lot to Mike Duff. He wasn't exactly setting the world on fire before MD really got stuck into him. Just ask Doncaster. I think most o...

Re: Stevenage v Cheltenham Town

Thought Pardington did remarkably well seeing he’s only played a handful of senior games in his career.
Noted that his contract runs out this summer, as does Southwood, and Max Harris too I believe.
If DC moves on, good luck to whoever sorting out the No. 1 for starters.

There was a fanzine in the mid-90's. Would have been '94 or '95 when I went into school on a Monday morning and my teacher had left his copy from the weekend on my desk for me. Stashed away in the attic somewhere at the moment but the front page was something about "Rushden Anne Diamonds"...

It's definitely lacking and very noticeable how our midfield has improved when it's Bonds/Pett rather than Pett/Kinsella. Would love to see us add big powerful and pacy forward (similar to Jones for Posh) who can give us an outlet and let us play on the counter attack in the summer no matter which ...
