Barnsley sack their manager. Rolling the dice with that action.

I will say it again - VAR should only be used for matter of fact things. Ball over the line, challenge awarded inside / outside the box, offside. Those decisions yesterday were all about opinion and pretty much everyone has one. Let's go back to what we know and pretty much has existed before time ...

Dirk Gently WRTTOP, when a goalkeeper makes a routine catch and throws themselves down on the ground, ball in hand. It seems to be endemic now, and serves no purpose I can see other than to waste time.

Agreed - my son did this yesterday

Went to the Basingstoke Town game today, Paul Hodges for Basingstoke scores from 90 yards! Yep, that’s right, 90 yards. Off one post, hit the other and spun in. Sight to behold and he meant it. Hope there will be a video doing the rounds soon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aM1Vv6KOC1o Great clip,...

Totton and Eling ridiculous schedule in the Wessex League continued last night where they are having to play 12 matches in 26 days. Last night they were playing East Cowes Vics, they could only field 9 players where 3 of them were the backroom staff. They lost 6-0. They are away again on Thursday to...

For me, the most positive thing to come out of this season is the re-connection between the fans and the people on the pitch. We all know that you can't expect to see your team every single match, we do however expect to see effort and commitment from the players, and we're getting that now after w...

Benchmark for me are the Portsmouth and Bolton away games. What did they have over us, to turn us over so emphatically. Style of play? Fast wide players? Quality of player in certain positions? Match off against that with what we have now and we would be just fine, if we can find that type of player.

Up there with our greatest win and performance of the season, away game, and i take this to a 6 pager - unheard of! Brilliant first half, battling 2nd half with some fight, particularly those 15 minutes after half time. Well timed substitutions. Other bullet points to note. Wing is just a fantastic ...

Great voices from all the travelling Imps. Beggars belief how Reading are down at that end of the table Reading a good side especially out wide. Have to say Azeez is a real handful - can we sign him, or is he on loan from a higher club? Reading despite their place are pretty decent side with some c...

Plymouth Parkway have to play 8 games over the next 16 days. 5 of them are at home. Good chance tonight's game will be called off. I imagine they will be very careful in players they pick for these games to ensure they get the points needed to stay up. Tomorrow’s match postponed after today’s pitch...

They did move to Taunton( from Plymouth Parkway) but immediately matches got postponed because the Taunton pitch was no better than Plymouth’s. ....if I read correctly the news on NLM is that the National League are insisting TAUNTON'S next home fixture is played at Gloucester City too !! Happens t...

Great stuff. I do worry that we are not as far from the relegation places as the article suggests, especially with any more points deductions. But the article gives me confidence we can survive on merit. I was at the Cambridge game, it was very impressive. OTOH if we do survive, the thousands of di...

Is that like the statement from Bowen that the sale should be complete by early New Year. Or when we should have exclusivity within about a week, three/four weeks ago. And the next thing we heard was Bearwood was being sold to Wycombe and Dai had changed his mind again? Howe's statement is obviousl...

It's the downs in the National League that I find most fascinating. Oxford City in 24th place are as good as doomed, but the next ten points from 42 to 52 span 14 teams, right up to Rochdale in 1oth place, who are only eight points outside the play-offs. In fact, ten teams span the five points betw...

Love him or hate him, trust him or not but Huang Kad has just posted a picture of a corner flag. One of those situations where you don't trust the account but know it has been right on more than one occasion (wrong on others) and hope this is one more occasion where it is right. Typical that he'll ...

Wycombe dont have the money, the owner does not have this money but this Georgian billionaire business acquaintance of the owner does. Surely we are a better proposition than Wycombe - maybe he is buying us. Perhaps the training ground is a quick fix buy to get money moving to settle the club, clear...

From the chap who seems to randomly get stuff spot on @HuangKad Hi #readingfc fans. I am told someone close to dai put an offer to Nigel howe last month for everything ,training ground, stadium and club. Nigel did not pass this offer to dai. pang told Nigel that dai’s plans had changed and the focu...
