I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for Oxford City away for purely selfish reasons

Sounds like a positive reaction from today, despite defeat. I thought the same at guiesley. The fact is a good performance every half dozen games constitutes nothing and further highlights how shit we are. Mathematical it's not too late, but it's going to have to be a miracle of the greatest magnit...

and, sorry Jeff, Reid is one of the most inept players I have ever seen in a United shirt... why he keeps getting the team is beyond me (opinion)

Normally I'd agree, never normally rate him but I thought he did a good job today.

Absolute travesty. Completely undeserved result, a point was the least we deserved given how well we'd played but we didn't even get that. Dagenham fans on the way out agreed that we were the better side. Can't say whether it was a penalty or not as it was down the other end. Play like that in upcom...

Bloody good half. We don't look like a side cut adrift at the bottom at all. McQuoid needs to hang his head in shame - easy tap in and he fires it so high and hard over the bar it was obscene. Davis absolute class at LB. Also liking the look of Evans in front of the back 4. Dorel has had one top dra...

For clarity, I wasn't suggesting Banbury and Brackley should be in the same half of the draw, but the other way round (Banbury South, Brackley North) given that that would then match their regionalisation. The distribution of clubs North and South does throw up some bizarre situations - I was living...

Fourth qualifying round Number of matches: 32 The 24 clubs from the National League, the fifth tier of English football, enter the FA Cup at this stage. They join the 40 winners from the previous round in a two sectioned ~ North /South draw And for those of you interested, the split is drawn in the...

CI've been keeping an eye on the teams left, as I'm up near Northampton till 1pm that day and was sizing up who I'd want us to get (away from home) for me to be able to get to a game. I've plumped for Oxford City as my preference, followed by Hemel Hempstead. Both teams we might be able to get the b...

I think this is a real important step, and send a good message out to the free agents/players out of favour at their parent clubs. Come in, and if you do a decent job there is a possibility of a longer term deal. Dorel has done the business so it's only fair he gets the chance to establish himself (...

Scored 7 in 17 games for FGR last season, that's a decent enough ratio for me.

With him seemingly being frozen out at FGR, I wonder if there is a chance for this to become permanent?

Lowest attendance that sticks out for me was away at Chester in the Atkins great escape season (2005?). The game was scheduled for a Saturday but there was heavy snowfall and it was called off on the day. It was then rescheduled for the following Tuesday (as in 3 days later), so very few people coul...

I think the penalty would have been cheap if we'd been given, but their lad only getting a yellow for that challenge is nothing short of disgusting

Apart from we are unbeaten in one. We lost to Bromley on Tuesday, remember

Can't work out what formation that might end up being. I guess as the versatile Evans could be filling in any number of roles.
