Re: North by North West. Away to Blackpool Sat 24th Feb, 3-0'clock
What a shite day. The football gods have decided we will never win at Blackpool again. Today, just to make sure they had that arsehole of a ref to make sure. I can put up with them misinterpreting situations but when they don't know the rules, then we're fecked. That said, we really didn't help ours...

Re: North by North West. Away to Blackpool Sat 24th Feb, 3-0'clock
Very lucky to get a ticket for this one. Like most Wanderers of a similar age, I've never seen us win here. Think I've visited at least 10 times too.
A top two side wins this today.

Re: Red cards and Red Kits, Bolton v Charlton - 17th Feb 2024 3pm
Look at our remaining fixtures and Derby and Pompey’s form. Does anyone in heart of hearts have much confidence in us? To me we have a run of the exact sorts of games we struggle with even when we are at our best. And we are far from that right now. Baxter is in a cast so sounds like he’s a long wa...

Re: A Load of Cobblers. Away to Northampton Sat, 10th Feb.3-0'clock.
Interesting stuff DSB. Along with Rochdale they used to form the answer to the footy trivia question - Who are the only teams, since the advent of the Premier league, to have played all their football in what were divisions 3 & 4? Dale's demise means they're now unique.

Re: Alas poor Yor(i)k, I knew it well. Home v Barnsley, Sat Feb 3rd, 3-0' clock.
The most annoying thing to me about their goal, is that we'd never have scored it. The throw in would have gone backwards and have been back with Baxter 2 touches later. It's my only real criticism of Evattball, it can be too prescriptive at times. Just the occasional mix-up of approach can mess wit...

Time to prove we're not just flat track bullies but can dish it out to the good teams as well. I believe they like to throw men forward so half an eye on us building slowly, followed by up tempo counter attacking when we nick it off em.
2-1 win

Re: Seconds out, Round Four. V Blackpool away Tues, 30th Jan. 7-0'clock.
Meh. Much as I wanted to win, it was never going to match last years occasion had we got to Wembley. First half we should have been home and dry. 2nd half only they were going to win it until that final minute miss of Dion's. I thought it was odd Dempsey didn't take a pen. The ref, badgering Ashwort...

If Collins fails - Cheeky, late, low bid for Clark-Harries? He's going for nowt in 6 months if they don't get any takers.

Reminds me, it's been years since I heard the song

It was a regular feature, sadly, in the early 80s.

Been following the Post Office/Horizon scandal for a number of years with some professional curiosity. The excellent Mr Bates v Post Office nailed it. But there clearly needs people held to account, because some of the statements made are just untenable. I don't for one minute believe, between Fuji...

Christ, that were bad and made the long drive home (cheers BP!) even worse. Wing backs aren't functioning like they were earlier in the season, midfield were bypassed by the direct stuff. Toal and Santos are having more than the odd bad game now, strikers can't hit a barn door. Still fancy us at hom...

I'd not be shocked if Luton put a bid in for young George based on that tonight. Bloody hell, what a talent. And to think we nearly let him leave for a paltry million quid.

Aye, when has prioritising other comps worked for us in the past? Try and win every game we play. It breeds confidence.

Re: The Rest of League One 23/24
Warm applause for Darren Clarke at Cheltenham. They looked a lost cause as early as August when us, and just about everyone else, whupped em at something to nil. They may still be in the bottom 4 but look a much tougher nut to crack now and must be treated cautiously and with respect.

Re: Tall dark strangers at the door. At home to Burton Albion New Years Day 3-0 clock
Only one thing mattered today and that was that we got three points and we did. Granted, we didn't help ourselves in and around the final third but there was only one team in it, and had a couple of delieveries in been a few inches closer it could've been very comfortable. Vic and Tomo the standout...

Re: The Rest of League One 23/24
Interesting that re the fitness. I always felt Warne would get Derby up and running and I'd not have been unhappy if they'd sacked him, when a lot of their fans were clamouring for it in September. A loss for them last night, might have slowed their momentum. Coming back from 2 down to win, well.......
