  1. Ref Watch .... Wycombe away (last one for a while!)

    They have quite possibly saved the best 'til last. Saturday's referee is Neil Swarbrick from Preston. A very experienced official who is rated as one of the best officials on the Football League list. In fact along with Jon Moss, he is a firm favourite to join the Select Group of Premiership...

    Sports Journalism Degrees

    Friend's son looking to go to Uni to do sports journalism, I know we have a few on here with experience, would anyone like to give an opinion on where is thought to be the best? They're thinking of Preston or Portsmouth atm. He's a bright kid and has a good work ethic, doing all the right A...
  4. Ref Watch ...... Shrewsbury

    Tomorrow sees referee Graham Salisbury from Preston making his first visit to Roots Hall, despite this being his 10th season on the list. The experienced 48 year old enjoyed a reputation as a steady journeyman official who was never going to make it to the top, but a safe pair of hands at...
  5. Ref Watch ..... Rotherham away

    No lack of experience with Saturday's referee. It is Scott Mathieson from Stockport who I believe is the longest serving Football League referee, this being his 16th season. His early seasons pre-date readily available records but I don't recall him ever appearing at Roots Hall. He has...
  6. Ref Watch ...... Festive Cards

    Festive cards will not be in short supply if Boxing Day referee, Darren Deadman's last appearance at Roots Hall is anything to go by. Deadman, a civil servant from Cheshunt, showed 9 yellow cards in a staggering display of incompetence last season at home to Franchise FC. As it happens, we...
  7. Leeds total disaster tonight

    Leeds 4-1 up at home to Preston after 39 mins final score-- Leeds 4 Preston 6 !!!!

    Burnley V Preston

    If you've missed this game (live on BBC2), then for the love of God watch the Football League Show tonight. Burnley 3-1 down, Preston go down to ten, Burnley score 3 in 6 minutes to go 4-3 up. Currently in 5 minutes of added time.

    Pre-Match Thread Bradford City v Southend United 19:45 K.O

    So, the team have been ooop narf since Tuesday's spirited defeat at Wolves. They have trained at Port Vale and Huddersfield's training facilities and Sturrock has an almost fully fit squad to choose from. The only absentee will again be Mark Phillips who has a hamstring problem. It's time the...

    manor15's Football League Round-Up: Week 1 (7/8/10)

    Boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the football season, and in particular the brand-spanking new npower Football League for the 2010-11 season. After a summer of World Cup action in South Africa, the country, well at least a small part of its', eyes switched to Carrow Road on...
  12. Inception

    Have to admit this film has snuck up on me, but man I'm well excited about seeing it tomorrow. 87% on Rotten Tomatoes Trailers: 1 2 3 Chris Nolan (Dark Knight, Memento, The Prestige) is rapidly becoming a must see director, and he hasn't made a film that's even remotely average. All star cast...

    Tour of Britain 2010

    This year's route has just been announced: http://www.tourofbritain.co.uk/_ns_race/ Bradley Wiggins has just been on Twitter saying that, with no time trial, he is likely to miss this in favour of the Vuelta a España (which is of course a far more prestigious race anyway) Reckon I'll head...
  18. ESB's Masters Preview

    The Masters at Augusta is one of the most eagerly anticipated sporting events, this year given more impetus by the not-so-surprising return of Tiger Woods. At the risk of overshadowing a landmark event in the golfing calendar, Woods has pledged to put his previous indiscretions behind him and...

  20. Robinho: The £32.5m Advert

    When Manchester City pipped Chelsea to the signing of Robinho 18 months ago, it was dubbed as the transfer that would make the whole world take notice. It has, we’ve now noticed just how petulant a footballer can possibly be. The Brazilian forward come winger come child has had what can only be...
