DJ Mega Party

Anyone know where he's gone?

I assumed it was an unpaid job (an impression I got from when the guy got sacked for his comments before a game against Millwall when McGhee was in charge there).

At first he seemed a bit over the top (hence his nick-name). But now I miss him.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Wycombe Wanderers (h)

BFTG. I think 98% of people are going to say the same thing about this one. Truly dreadful, insipid, weak first half. I remember the slow start being a feature of the Ince era, to the extent he addressed it in an interview - he said he told them not to do it but they did it time after time. For prob...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I have "been there" as a Newport County Fan Going out of the league and bust was horrible and frankly I thought the re-launch was a hopeless dream... We were forced to play outside Wales (at Moreton-in-the Marsh) for a fair while. With four others, I ran the 80 miles to Moreton, raising c...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Thing is about the communications, there was a massive and justifiable complaint that we never heard anything. The club now provides updates regularly, both via Bowen publicly, and from other officials via Star. If they don’t make stuff up and if things are taking a long time, the comms will either ...

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

I just got some troubling information concerning our finances. Basically, if Dai doesn't agree to the sale very soon then we'll be getting the 2-point suspended deduction in April. Even if he does it depends on whether the new owner is willing to give us money before the sale is finalised. Not exac...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Was talking to a friend who is involved in board of a national league team - and he told me what virtually all teams in the league are loss making and need a financial injection of around £1million each year. I found that staggering .. Don't want to be rude, but are you new here? Football's financi...

Snowflake Royal Nationalise football.


I like your long-term thinking here.

Maybe football clubs could be converted in QUANGOs. With charters that require a degree of consultation with recognised and legitimate supporter groups.

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

Hearing that that cu n t Simon Jordan said on talk sport yesterday that paying our tax late gave us a sporting advantage even though we haven`t got a pot to piss in at the moment. Not the first time he`s had a dig at us, seems to have some kind of grievance against us for the reason. I think it's j...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Just a thought, considering that Dai isn`t exactly on the EFLs Christmas card list at the minute do you think if a takeover isn`t completed by the time the fixtures are released in June that they would expel us from the league? I`m sure they wouldn`t want this shambles to continue into next season ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (h)

Obviously, a disapointing result. Although he could have done better for the first goal, it wasn't Button's fault. The referee wasn't perfect, but he was OK, and it wasn't his fault. Mola was nothing like as bad as some people seem to be suggesting, it wasn't his fault. Not Wing, nor Azeez, nor Sell...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Port Vale (h)

That was much more of a struggle then it needed to be. Vale were mostly poor. Persistence and hard work won it for us, even if quality was in short supply. Even before his goal Wing was my MOTM. And what a strike that was. But then he’s my player of the season, so I may be biased. Mbengue, Binden an...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Port Vale (h)

I do till feel we need to try to grab as many points whilst everyone basically is fit. Still scares me that we rely on Azeez who was perma-injured before this year, then Smith who gets a beating every game, plus Wing and Knibbs who have played a lot this season I'm with Hound on this one. We will s...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Fleetwood Town (a)

A lot of us may be suffering from over confidence about tonight, but I expect neither the management nor the team will be. This should be winnable, but it's likely to be anything but routine. Woudn't do any harm to rest Smith - something like Ehibhatiomhan in the centre with Mukairu on the left and ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Charlton Athletic (h)

BFTG. MOTM - for me, Wing. I know most are going for Azeez - goals win games, hardest thing to do is score, etc. But Wing was super-charged, influencial for 95 minutes, non-stop. I did see him having to be restrained from going after Smith - and hope it's just passion and everything will die down. C...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Oxford United (a)

I forgot to give the referee a mention. Several times, for both sides, he waited after a foul to see if there was an adavnatge, and when it was clear there was, called play back for a free kick. Otherwise, he was generally weak, inconsistent and wrong. In a season when most of the officiating has be...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Oxford United (a)

Dorsett struggled all game and looked out of his depth. Azeez didn't put a foot right. Wing, Yiadom and Binden the pick of the bunch, Knibbs and Craig lots of effort but not enough composure. Great cameos from Wifi and Savage. TVP a bit heavy handed I thought. On BBC Oxford their lot were describing...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Leyton Orient (h)

I’m defiantly glass half full about this one. Very even game against a good Orient side in excellent form. Took some good defending and getting their bodies in the way to block to stop us scoring a second goal, although they also created some decent half chances. I thought Wing was excellent throug...

Not a big hitter by volume of posts, but a bit of seniority, as I've been around here since the year 2000.
