    Nerves Jangle As Race Intensifies

    And that is why you can't write novels about football. It doesn't matter how expertly you construct your prose, nor how gripping your final chapter, the human mind is simply incapable of making the implausible plausible on as regular a basis as reality. Who would dare to write a story about a...

    History Will Reward Liverpool

    This week, a friend of mine bound for pastures new bestowed upon me her collection of old football magazines. I can't begin to explain how exciting this is to someone like me. You see, my friend's magazine collection is taller than her and it stretches back through the years to historic...

    Can You Help?

    The BAN List

    I think it would be right and proper to have a running ban list to inform us and stop us from asking who is banned and why. 1. The Big Shrimp - Unknown to me why maybe somebody could tell us the length of time 2. Bucket and Spade - Banned for trying to avoid the swear filter - 1 week ban

    The Facebook status thread

    I dunno about you guys, but I used to love Facebook. Well, for about 3 weeks.

    So how bad is it really?

    For the first time in many seasons, fbm is worried. It definitely now feels as though we have been relegated rather than just not going up, and our total inability to stride past these non league teams in cruise control has me worrying what may happen if we lose heavily at Wycombe on Saturday...
