Just thinking about the squad and I think it's clear a lot of people's expectations are too high for this season from what I've seen and heard since the start of the season (especially on Twitter or on BBC Berks). When we compare to the close of the summer transfer window last season, we've lost Sa...

Would expect a team something like (depending on availability): Stevens Ahmed - Stickland - Burns - Garcia (Ryan) Sackey - Elliott - Spencer Camara - Ehibhatiomhan - Doyle Would play Dorsett and O'Connor at CB if either or both are available. Wouldn't be surprised if we played someone like Fraser or...

Anyone go to the Former Players' Q&A with Rob (and Todd) last night? Thought it was really good, Rob can certainly talk. 76 years old, but still sharp as a tack. Didn't backdown from any question, and Ady chucked a couple of trickyish ones at him. Loved his anger at the media for not properly c...

There's a few you'd want to get out on loan to play regular first team football IMO - Ahmed; Sackey; Spencer and Tuma all spring to mind as those you'd want playing first team football this season. For the record, the outfield qualifying players for the EFL Trophy (notwithstanding anyone who started...

We don’t seem to have a thread for it this season, but my back of a fag packet table (based purely on vibes and no analysis of transfers, etc.) prediction is: ⋅ Huddersfield ⋅ Luton ⋅ Stockport ⋅ Cardiff ⋅ Bolton ⋅ Plymouth ⋅ Blac...

also, a great find some years ago was the Ipswich forum site as they store all English league tables after each game. so you pick a league, then select date range, and you can see how a table looked at any earlier point in the season you want https://www.twtd.co.uk/league-tables/competition:league-...

H-T 0-0 Reading 1 Liverpool 0 Booth 62 mins 2-0 Osho 70mins 3-0 Coke-Miles-Smith 74 mins F-T 3-0 The result of the other semi was Derby 1 West Ham 3. As far as i know the final is NOT 2 legged so presumably played at West Ham or Reading- we are above West Ham in the PL U 18 South table so we should...

WestYorksRoyal Surely any free agent would be well short of match fitness even if we got them through the door in time?

Now we know who it ism I would imagine Tom Carroll will be on the bench. He was at Milton Keynes until last month and was getting some minutes for them.

Another question: what players who a elite now but wouldn't be in the 90s and players who'd be an elite player in the 90s but isn't now? Ooh good question. TAA I assume as olden day full backs were pure defenders. Imagine your Dylan Kerr's and Andy Bernal's of this world just wandering into midfiel...

I guess with Craig out for the season, this makes sense. That's especially the case if Elliott isn't going to be back soon.

My concern is he wasn't playing regularly in League Two for Milton Keynes before having his contract terminated a month ago.

Another question: what players who a elite now but wouldn't be in the 90s and players who'd be an elite player in the 90s but isn't now?

Great win and will be a massive result to keep the women in the division.

Good result yesterday, especially coming from behind and not having Craig, Campbell and Ehibhatiomhan. Fantastic to see Yiadom return, especially as it seems Craig is going to be out for the rest of the season. Rushesha had a fairly solid game though. This was another match showing the importance of...

Starting XI
Pereira
Rushesha - Bindon - Mbengue - Garcia
Knibbs - Wing - Savage
Camara - Wareham - Bodin

Subs: Button; Abrefa; Yiadom; Holzman; Stickland; Sackey; Akande

We are the best southern supported team in what is mainly a northern league. All the big away ends, aside Charlton, are in the north too. Imagine what our average would be if sides like Crawley, Leyton Orient or Bristol Rovers had grounds being enough to allow us to take 2/3k them - like at Wigan, ...

The tactics were very different. I wonder how good the teams from twenty-odd years ago would adapt to the current tactics.

That said, I think football was more entertaining back then because of sides being less refined and there being more scope for flair players.

Peterborough came from 2-0 down, including with a 91st minute equaliser, to take Wrexham to penalties in the EFL Trophy last night - before winning on penalties. Saves us from a Birmingham-Wrexham final.

Excellent interesting work, thanks! I think I found De'Juane Taylor-Crossdale on LinkedIn and looks like he’s “retired’ from the playing side. Looks to be an Academy Manager at Nigel James Elite Coaching as well as a Director of the Transition Football Academy and the head of sports and outreach st...
