There’s no other way to describe Nestle 0 Rowntree Mackintosh 1 is there? In about 94 minutes worth of play, we had one piddly little effort on target. Plenty of running around, of course, but not much else. We’ve gone from a upper-to-mid-table side to a distinctly mid table one. Only trouble now is, we
A few more random thoughts from Barrow, now I’m reaclimatising to being back down south. – We haven’t heard much from TB about the performance, apart from what he came up with for the Surrey Comet : “I’ll be happy if they continue to produce that level of performance.” I wouldn’t, especially that first half
NOTE: I wrote most of this on the train between Barrow and Preston, and is therefore largely unedited. Although I have had no alcohol whatsoever… Well, that was fun wasn’t it? You can wait for the OS and the SLP for the match report with all the boring details like who scored and what actually
As we get over Millwall and look forward to the long jaunt up Norf on Saturday, SW19 contributor Jampot adds his $0.02 from Monday… In one of those strange twists of fate, I happened to be in Coventry the day after the Millwall game, visiting the university with my daughter.

About this time last year, I sat back after watching us lose 4-1 to Wycombe and thought we were shown a side of football that we haven’t experienced since 2002. Fast forward a year, and our latest first round exit had exactly the same scoreline. However, unlike last year, Cold Blow Lane 4 Plough Lane
Well, there’s the motivation for tomorrow – Staines Town away. Ryman Premier playoff, anyone? I bet I wasn’t the only one thinking “please don’t draw out Franchise”… Of course,we have to get past Milwall first. Before the nerves/excitement kick in at about 11am tomorrow, it’s worth a little reflection on this, the Biggest Game In
Just seen this on the OS: Subject to administrative clearance, Terry Brown is pleased to announce that we have managed to secure the services of Luis Cumbers. Terry said “Luis was a tremendous success last time he was here. He comes on an initial one month loan, which brings us back up to the four
Right, got a couple of responses to my impassioned plea request for any comments from those who went Saturday. Feel free to send a couple more comments in: Firstly, from Chalfers: We came, we saw, we played for 20 minutes. Unfortunately we gave 3 goals away during the other 70 when Chester were playing and
(note to any Crawley Town supporters or that Non League Football Live place who have just discovered this website. I’m not normally this morose. Honest) By the sound of it, I think I might have gotten the better deal by not going to the Deva Stadium yesterday. True, I went to Ebbsfleet v Wrexham instead,
