  1. Ballboys today

    Did anyone else notice that the ballboys were only ever in the Leicester half when attacking so they could get the ball to them quicker. Yet when we were attacking and the ball went out not a ballboy in sight so we had to hold up play for a ball to be collected or thrown back to the player CHEATS

    A positive post

    Might as well set up a post where people can mention some of the big positives they have taken so far from this season. My biggest positive is the performance of our wingers and especially Gower. I'm not saying that Gower has overshadowed JCR but I thought he would struggle this season...

    Due to formatting problems the report isn't yet on the front page so here it is BLUES LAND TITLE IN ESSEX ONE-TWO The two Essex sides defied all the odds in League One by claiming both automatic promotion spots – with the Super Shrimpers deservedly landing the title. In fact, it was...

    Working in Southwark...

    I was assuming naively that I'd be able to rock over to West Ham station on one of the commuter trains and then hop on the jubilee but they're talking about transfers and all sorts. Is it really quicker to go all the way to Westminster and then back on yourself? Annoying if it is cos I...

  7. Why have things gone wrong?

    1. Missing Sodje and Prior With one of these two in we clean up everything in the air. They are strong, experienced defenders who organise our defence and make us a much more physical side. They protect a vulnerable Flahavan. The statistics pretty much say it all. Sodje played 11 games (plus...

    Thats why were top the league!

    Just got back from Barnsley - great fighting performance from the team against a very rugged (i.e. dirty) Barnsley. We started OK, though Barnsley had the better of it. After the opening exchanges, Gower had a shot that the keeper fumbled onto the post and it looked like we may be getting a...

  9. Reading and MK Dons

    Funnily enough i was chatting to a Watford supporter last night and he informed me that part of the reason why Reading had become such a success this season was that there ball boys were extremely quick to through new balls back on the pitch. Thus breaking quicker against opponents as they were...

    BLUES DRAW BLANK BUT STOP THE ROT Prior to tonights match, my own view was that it was imperative not to lose again so any sort of result would be a positive.  This was aside from my own optimistic opinion that we would win a comfortable 3-0 of course. Chesterfield are one of the divisions...

    Money burning a hole

    Might not be much by most people's standards but I have about 100K floating around in spite of signing up two recruits for my PM school. I've had a look at coaches and for pretty much the whole lot I can get a replacement coach in who will have poor leadership but solid training skills...

  14. Player Ratings

    So with 1,000+ going to Sixfields and the rest watching on the box what were everyone's player ratings? Flahavan - 9 - Kept us in the game with two great saves and hardly put a foot wrong (after the free-miskick incident) [MOM] Jupp - 7 - Did what was asked of him Barrett - 8 - Solid in...
