Thread | Moyes To Leave West Ham
at 08:48 7 May 2024
Not exactly a shock, but strange given that the Hammers have had as good a 4 years or so under him than at any time since the 1980's, and look likely to finish in the top 10 again this season.
Now the debate can open about whether we should get him next season |

Thread | Leeds Allocation For Norwich
at 08:37 7 May 2024
They have just over 2,000 tickets allocated and the starting point for Leeds fans wanting to go is 20 away games, tickets are £36, so a little higher than normal but not the £47 that Leeds charged us at the weekend. |

Those of a certain age will remember Boys from the Blackstuff and Bernard Hill who played Yosser Hughes, sadly passed away aged 78.

No problem selling out the away allocation, lets hope that we get a full St Mary's given we have 29,000 home tickets with WBA only getting 2,000.

Thread | AFC Totton Win Play Off Semi Final
at 23:27 1 May 2024
A pulsating game at the Snows Stadium which saw AFC Totton concede a late equaliser and then win it in the second period of extra time in front of a big crowd.
Now they go again on Monday afternoon at the Snows Stadium where they face Salisbury who beat Gosport 2-1
Hopefully a taster for Saints |

Thread | Everton Loaned More Money
at 22:43 30 Apr 2024
I'm getting concerned for Everton, their prospective buyers 777 Partners have loaned them another £17 million which take the debt to them over £200 million.
They also owe £158 million to MSP for the new stadium.
The BBC say:
"BBC Sport understands the club are not taking insolvency advice,, external but are considering ways of restructuring its short-term debt to make it more manageable.
The club owes about £400m to numerous third-party firms, with much of the loans being used towards the building of the new stadium.
It is believed there is currently not a threat of administration as the club remain up to date with payments to stakeholders such as the players, staff, stadium construction company Laing O'Rourke and HMRC.
Everton declined to comment."
It gets worse though
"Meanwhile, 777-owned airline Bonza went into voluntary administration on Tuesday, and the abrupt cancellation of all of its flights left thousands of passengers stranded around Australia.
The BBC is awaiting a statement from 777 regarding Bonza.
In further financial strife, 777's UK public relations advisers have stopped representing the company after the firm did not meet payments on fees and it remains to be seen whether they will re-engage."
Even if they push this deal though I truly fear they will not be good owners for Everton |

Thread | 5 Things From Saturday
at 11:01 29 Apr 2024
1. Russell Martin does not have a clue what to do for the best
2. Those of us in the Kingsland north had the last 5 minutes of the game with a rock band on the stage behind the stand blaring out songs long before even the 90 minutes is up, this is what we can expect going forward.
3. Just a few weeks ago we had spirit in the fan base, now that is all gone, if we get to Wembley I truly expect that we will, have the embarrassment of blocks of unsold seats.
4. Saints fans arguing amongst themselves, it almost came to blows behind me.
5. I still think we can do this if we all get behind the team as we did in 1994 & 1999 when we rescued a dire situation on the last day |

Thread | Stoke Game Matchday Thread
at 07:43 27 Apr 2024
Off we go again, win this and beat Leeds and we could guarantee 3rd place if we over turn a 15 goal deficit.
In simple terms if we could turn over Stoke 7-0 then we would just need to win 4-0 at Elland Road.
Anyone putting any money on that, no me neither.
We just need to get that togetherness and fight that we used to have back |

Thread | Championship Table 2011/12
at 09:41 15 Apr 2024
Just had a quick peak at the Championship table in 2012 when we last got promoted.
We went up in second place with 88 points, Reading were Champions with 89.
West Ham were 3rd on 86 and Cardiff had the final play off spot on 75 points.
Compare that with this year were the top two are already on 89 & 88 & Leeds have 87, Norwich in 6th already have 71.
The dichotomy of this season could be that the much derided Russell Might fail to get automatic promotion despite getting more points than the much loved Nigel Adkins.

Thread | The Proclaimers
at 20:53 14 Apr 2024
Many football fans know that The Proclaimers are massive Hibs fans and that their song Sunshine On Leith is sung at games.
But something a lot do not realise is that many years ago , brothers Craig and Charlie both worked as groundsmen for the club.
They got the sack after players complained that the grass was too long and it ruined their passing game.
The brothers blamed this on DIY store B and Q
They went to branches at Bathgate no mower, Linwood no mower, Irvine no mower, Lochaber no mower, Sutherland no mower, Lewis no mower, Skye no mower.......... |
