Re: Division Three, 2024/25

Interesting point re Luton, they had the parachute payment last year but that didn't stop them freefalling. The stadium itself holds approx 12K when full so not a massive income stream and I can see an exodus of players. Think I would rather be us than them.

I saw it was a full fixture list tonight and started to look at the options/permutations as to what would suit us best. Then I thought bllox we just have to win and let the others sort themselves out and worry about us.

Re: In, Out, Shake It All About: January 2025 Transfer Window

Interesting to read the excellent analysis by DSB above. Whilst saves from shots on target doesn't tell the whole story it is nevertheless quite sobering to read those stats. Some of those shots were undoubtedly in the "almost a backpass " category and not some thunderous effort from 10 yards. Traff...

Yes it looks daunting but Wrexham did not look promotion contenders to me. I can see why Orient score a few but they also looked poor defensively, I would certainly fancy our chances against both these.
Onwards and upwards.

How did Orient not score a third just before the sending off. It's was like the chuckle brothers , to me to you.

I was right first time, Orient look dreadful- particularly defending.

Undoubtedly a big game and a chance to show our true mettle. One advantage we have is that the new management will have the opportunity to work a full week with the squad , and with the match being at home their is no travel involved. I'm expecting a win to keep us on track, this is potentially our ...

If one of Markham’s last acts was getting £750k, potentially rising to a million, for Dion Charles, then he’s had at least one outstanding success.
Good point, chances of it rising to a million are perhaps remote. If we are to go up via the play offs then the bonus won't kick in.

Irrespective of his signings , or otherwise, the best bit of business we did in the last transfer window was holding on to Morley who in my very humble opinion has been exceptional since his return
