  1. It's interesting that in sports where current levels of performance can objectively be compared with historical levels, athletes generally seem to be 'better' than their predecessors. I'm thinking of athletics, swimming, cycling where performance is measured against the clock. Seems a bit implausible to me that the opposite is happening in football, despite people telling us it was better in the olden days...
  2. Danny Boshell was on the bench for Bradford (Park Avenue) on Monday, in the division below us. He's 42 in May...
  3. Not sure about this... spent a lot of his career with Everton who for most of the time he was there were languishing in the bottom-half of the division. I'd have thought that hard work, exploiting home advantage and squeezing as much out of fairly limited players (at that level) would be right up his street...
  4. Feels a bit unfair - he hadn't even taken over by the Woking game...
  5. Seems a solid if unspectacular signing. Contract to 2025 seems generous...
  6. I'm convinced that given enough time, he'll come good. Ludicrous to be calling for his head after 9 games...
  7. I reckon Vaughan'll have a couple of largely unsuccessful loan spells in the NLN before being released on a free in a couple of years' time... ...sincerely hope I'm wrong, though.
  8. It was tongue-in-cheek... I don't think I'll be proven wrong. I'd be surprised if we finish above mid-table.
  9. Very much looking forward to being proven wrong when the season gets underway
  10. Dean Furman commentating on the AFCON on BBC Two.
  11. I was quite excited when we signed Poleon. Then I saw him play...
  12. Unfortunate for the lad, quite clearly accidental. What's the rule, excessive force? Not sure quite how it can be deemed an excessive accident... though admittedly it could've done some serious damage - right down the achilles.
  13. These days even on Football Manager you can win without playing 4-4-2. Game's gone.
  14. It is quite disheartening to see teams like Bolton and Bradford leave us in their wake having strengthened in the window.
