Re: European Leagues Thread 2012/2013

In the lower divisions, MSV Duisburg - who have been a staple of the top 2 divisions since the Bundesliga was formed in 1963 dropped out of the national leagues yesterday for the first time. They will play in the Regional 4th tier next season - which is notoriously hard to get out of as not every di...

Re: European Leagues Thread 2012/2013

Leverkusen equalled Benfica's unbeaten record with a 5-1 away win at Frankfurt - 48 unbeaten in all competitions. They were unplayable yesterday and with Bochum (a) and Augsburg (H) to play, you would be a brave man to bet against them completing the league season undefeated. You would also expect ...

Re: The Academy/Development squads watch thread 2015//16

Agreed that Carson is worth working with and would tie him down to a two year deal and ship him out on loan next season, ideally to somewhere that will help him work on his defensive skills. You do have to remember that his total experience when signing for us was a few games in N.Ireland alongside ...

Re: Rival Watch

I'm surprised anyone is surprised by the announcement of the Wycombe takeover, esp anyone who paid even a passing amount of attention to the training ground fun. Lomatadze (or however you spell it), was the one financing the deal - he has essentially been finiancing the club for a little while now w...

blythspartan If we can get him on loan from Luton I’d like to see us sign Joe Taylor on loan next season.


No way he plays L1 in my opinion next season.

Re: Squad Watch 2024/25

Any ideas as to when we publish the retained list? I appreciate that the potential change of ownership will cause a delay, but I saw that Bristol Rovers have published theirs in the last day or so (they have released a young left back, Gordon, who looked ok against us last month). I know a number o...

Re: Berks and Bucks Senior cup 2023/24

New venue and date announced for final. Wednesday 15th May at Sandhurst FC Odd they've changed the date and venue, but kept it midweek. Would've thought they'd want it on a weekend to get people in. Sandhurst and Marlow would have finished their respective seasons - so could it be due to us being i...

Re: Euro 2024

Sat in the queue to see if I can't pick up any extra tickets. Ticket website is a mess.

Lucky enough to already have tickets to the Second Round game in Frankfurt but would be nice to get to at least 1 more as they are taking place where I live.

Apparently one of the trialists who played over the weekend is 18yo Spurs midfielder Billy Heaps.

Which may be my new favourite footballer name.

Re: Rival Watch

Seem to be some strong rumours about that Jonson Clarke-Harris will be signing from Mansfield. Have absolutely no interest in us signing him esp as he is allegedly after big money but that could be seen as a bit of a "statement signing" from them if that is true. Seems to be a typo, so fo...

H-T 0-0 we are currently 6th and would meet Middlesborough at home in PO’s B Hodge is one of our trialists. Related to S Hodge? It’s Bradley Hodge- and not a lot about him anywhere. Possibly interesting they he has been named for the several matches he has now played for us - so could he have signe...

Re: Goalkeepers

I've had a look at the basic goalkeeping stats. Despite everyone criticising Button in goal, we've conceded basically as much with him in goal as we have with Pereira in goal. Button - Pld 37 - GA 55 - 59.7 mins per GA Pereira - Pld 9 - GA 14 - 54.6 mins per GA Even without that stoppage time mista...

Re: The Academy/Development squads watch thread 2015//16

Down to 7th before tonight’s PL 2 match. 7th is the absolute lowest we can finish, which in itself is a fantastic achievement. Draw at Forest will see us finish 6th, a win 4th and theoretically give us an easier game in the play-off round of 16. I assume, looking at the format, the home side will b...

Re: Ups & Downs 23/24

Bromley v Solihull for promotion to the EFL - will mean a brand new league club but guess if Bromley win they will need to rip up the 4G pitch and stick a grass one down. Neither club particularly well supported (both average under 2k this year) so will be interesting* to see how empty Wembley is at...

Re: Nelson abbey to return?

Take anything posted on Saturday with a pinch of salt but a loan back deal wouldn't be the craziest move in the world but imagine if he gets loaned any where it would be to the Champ esp if Forest get relegated.
