So I think I have all the answers, but I canā€™t for the life of me work out the anagram - does it make just the surname?

Sounds like two were 5 yellow suspensions.

In other news, I see we have sold out our allocation for Bromley away already. Not surprised really, think the allocation was only a few hundred or so. I read also that Crewe are expecting a big crowd tonight as well.

Love Friday night football!

Likewise, a point will be a great result right now. Fingers-crossed.

LOL - kind of you to say. After 5 years, and with other stuff going on, I felt it was time to take a break. Maybe one day I might do something along those lines again :-)

LOL - i'm not quite old enough to have been at that one, I came into proto-existence about a month later.

There has been only one other opportunity for that chant, but I think one of the bigger cheers against Leamington Spa in 2005 was when the Brakes got their consolation goal - probably the best goal of the game too.

That game has generated a lot of media/ social media attention so it would seem. What's the general focus, does it follow the theme of the Away Days vlog?

Exiles to be defeated at the JCS by resurgent DC's Blue and White Army
at 12:24 15 Dec 2024

Here's a telling stat - only the top three have lost fewer games, only the bottom three have won fewer.

We're definitely moving in the right direction, but another striker to support Tovide and Taylor must be top of the January shopping list. Imperative if the right offer comes in for Tovide, because if it does he will be sold.

Frustrating - a mucky game we could have won, but Newport stuck to their task and got the point they wanted. If the roles had been reversed we'd probably been just as happy. Still, another game undefeated, another clean sheet - there are some positives.

Vertu Trophy - ball number 3
at 13:00 14 Dec 2024

Wasn't at that one, but I was at our first EFL Trophy visit to Whaddon Road, and it was an equally cold and miserable experience - only on that occasion we lost. Richard McKinney gave away a penalty on the stroke of halftime, so the first touch of the ball for Simon Brown was picking it out of the net. McGleish equalised in the second half, then 'Nam just rolled over us - finished 4-1.

Hope you're right about the score Durham, that's what I've gone for on the U'sual PL. After your impressive Swindon prediction I'm expecting great things!

So the obvious (only?) answer is presumably Robbie Cowling. But surely thatā€™s the one answer it canā€™t be - arenā€™t there rules against owning more than one football club, or is that restricted to just league clubs?

BSM vs Wimbledon
at 18:39 11 Dec 2024

So, our family WhatsApp U's group last night realised there might be a spooky coincidence looming.

Last night was our fourth clean sheet in a row, and as I mentioned on the other thread, the last time we achieved that was remarkably nearly 27 years ago in the 1997/98 season under Steve Wignall.

What's also notable about the 1997/98 season? The last time we achieved promotion out of League 2, and the last time we appeared at Wembley.

Just saying like...

I'll take Swindon away for obvious reasons, and we owe them for the FA Cup.
