Re: The Non - League thread

I'm hoping it'll be a case of short term pain for long term gain. The north/south split was causing problems as it was, and did need sorting out. The step 4 divisions, due to the number of step 4 clubs they've absorbed, ought to be a bit easier to step up to than they are now. In the end, all clubs ...

Re: SV Hamburg- going down.

SV Hamburg, permanent resident of the Bundesliga, has been relegated to the 2nd Bundesliga for the first time in its history. This is another step towards Fc St Pauli becoming Hamburgs dominant football club. As a result I will continue my quest to become Hobnobs dominant Hamburg poster. HAGO every...

Re: Where in the world??

It's been something of a hobby of mine for the past 15 years or so, and I often arrange holidays with the fixtures in mind when planning an itinerary. As a result I've seen football (excluding games in England and Wales) in Austria, Belgium, Cambodia, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France,...

Re: European Leagues Thread 2012/2013

Watching Hamburg v Borussia Moenchengladbach on BT Sport, and noticed the Hamburg manager is called Christian Titz. I couldn't help my inner Beavis saying "Titz...huh..huh..huh" It would be a fine name for a niche interest gentlemen's periodical too. With Hamburg on the brink of being rele...

Re: Don Goodman

In fairness, they were racking up the points and were on course to beat it at one stage. Maintaining that pace over the full 46 games is difficult though.

Also, being worried that they might have broken the record isn't the same as believing they would, or even that they were likely too.

Re: Safe standing progress

Had confirmation from my local MP that he supports safe standing! But does he go to many evening games after a 12 hour shift on his feet? Thought not. What does that have to do with anything? some people have the bizarre idea that allowing safe-standing/terracing means everyone will forced to stand...

Re: Ups & Downs 2017/18

West Brom must be cursing both getting rid of Pulis and employing that imbecile Pardew. Their own fault of course. They certainly won't be cursing getting rid of Pulis. They were playing awful football and losing. Appointing Pardew was the mistake. It was quite annoying at he time, when the fans wa...

Re: Don Goodman

With this though would you agree that coppell was the best manager to manage in the championship. Majorly overachieved with limited funds and resources?? It depends how far back you go. If you are limiting it to an era when the 2nd tier was known as "the championship" then almost certainl...

Hartley Wintney set to be promoted, regardless of the result in their play off final v Cambridge City.

Re: The Non - League thread

That would make for some very negative and boring games though. You may as well do away with the play offs if you go down that route. I'd be a very brave home club that tries to play for a 0-0 for two hours. It'd also mean that any away side that's not in front in extra time would have to push forw...

Yep. The new Ossett United will play at Ossett Town's ground, while Albion's ground will be used for reserves/training.

Re: The Non - League thread

The Wessex League title race goes down to a nail-biting finish. Top of the table Blackfield & Langley will be champions if they can only avoid a 31-0 defeat at Brockenhurst. The tension will be unbearable.

Re: Don Goodman

We had 3 or 4 good strikers that season too. Kitson, Lita, Doyle and Long. God, I wish we had even one of that standard now. Unbelievable to think we had those four on our books at the same time. Mind you, they all suffered from injuries, so Coppell rarely had to make a choice as to who would play....

Re: Back from the ****

0-6, 1-6 in the past 20 odd years.....no Sorry. I meant is this our worst ever season at home since we were established in 1871. It must be very close. It's joint worst. At exactly 1 point per game, it matches the 87/88 relegation season. We've never had a worse record at home (recalculating old se...
