You know, I’m glad I was covering Southampton against Stockport yesterday, because I’m not sure what I would have made of our loss to Workington. At time of writing, I haven’t seen any match “action”, not that I particularly want to either, and all I can go by is JP’s report below and the various
There’s nothing quite like the sight of a football club owner appearing to lose it, especially in an official publication. On the stroke of midnight just gone, the Peterborough owner Darragh McAnthony delivered this gem of a press release that, ahem, rambled a bit. McAnthony, of course, was the infamous Mr X character who a
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why we won’t be in the playoffs. Whether it was over-confidence, lack of ability in scouting the opposition or just simply “one of those days” again, I dunno. But those expecting anything other than Celtic Crusaders 1 Harlequins RL 0 yesterday can justifiably feel deflated right now. Forget the

Well, that’s put a bit of a spanner in the works hasn’t it? Even up until about midnight last night, while it was cold it looked like the Wankiedust had finally thawed out enough to give us some hope of Mansfield on Saturday. You can therefore imagine everyone’s horror when they woke up this morning
You’re now back at work. The Xmas period has been and gone, the decorations are down and you now face 12 months of travel chaos, indifference at work and the aftermath of the persons you insulted/shagged/try to shag at your Xmas party. The credit card bills have yet to come in, which will curtail any
Yesterday, in an act of avoiding going shopping/spending even longer in front of the telly or this thing than I do already, I decided to pop down to Walton Casuals to watch our reserves play. In case you don’t know already, we beat Bedford Green 9-0. We scored after about a minute, they had a
