Re: Who do you consider to be a rival?

Sw*ndon for me. Oldest rival by far and played competitive games aganst them since the 1890s. The Shite and O*ford are just annoying little arrivistes compared to our Jerky neighbours.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Charlton Athletic (h)

KC Royal Stranded mentioned in another thread earlier in the week about how we've tightened up our defence. One thing that occurred to me today was that this has happened since Andrew Sparkes left.

In the 7 games we've played in all competitions since then just 3 goals conceded.


Best in League 1.

Leverkusen destroy Bayern 3-0. Xabi Alonso has turned Granit Xhaka into a genuine world-class midfielder. Unreal.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (h)

Great win and a great performance. Mukairu was a real handful and thoroughly deserved his goal. Defensively solid as well with Bindon and Holmes outstanding. Vital three points given other results. Still not quite sure what Savage offers to the team, but looking forward to Saturday. Savage isn’t a ...

Re: Do you agree with todays pitch invasion and match abandonment?

Saw a Facebook post somewhere that suggested a boycott of a future home game, but protesting to continue outside. How about a partial boycott and entering the stadium starting in the 16th minute?

Ah well if he’s involved that would make the deal simply irresistible.

Re: Football pub quiz questions

I remember this one from a few years ago: British cities that have had more than one team appear in the European Cup semi-finals. Answer was (now) Manchester (City, Utd), London (Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs), Glasgow (Celtic, Rangers), and...Dundee & Dundee Utd :shock:

Re: MATCHWATCH : Swindon Town (h)

I have always regarded Sw*ndon as the deadliest local rivals and got that from my uncles at a very early age. Also, regular games against them stretch back to the late-19th century Southern League days, long before the Sh!ts and O*ford. Fond memories of victories at a packed Elm Park in '67; Archie'...

Re: BTFG Cambridge

Was at the game and my thoughts are that Elliott has to play more centrally. On top of that, I was rather bemused by his substitution as I thought he was a threat. Also puzzled by Wifi's omission as he made a real difference when he came on. The left side concerns me: Carson is just not ready yet as...
