Merry Christmas SBT. Like it or not, arguments, trolls and just plain idiotic posters, we are a little community. Enjoy the day, and while it likely won’t be the norm, we’ll all have our proper Christmas Days with all our families at some point next year.

Eva Cassidy - Fields of Gold. It was used on a Cancer Research advert around the same time my Grandad died of cancer at Christmas. A real Christmas cheery one!

Don’t have anything too exciting for tonight or tomorrow unfortunately. The in laws will buy some ale for me, but it’ll be one of those ‘Classic Ale’ type boxes with nothing too exciting, it’s a nice thought though. And of course I’ll drink it, it’ll be rude not to... I had to nip to a variety...

Always fancied getting into this sort of stuff, but never found the time and other things took priority. Anyway, I have a little bit I could play with without the other half realising. Any hints/tips/recommendations where I could put it today?

Catch the train to London, stopping at Rejection, Disappointment, Backstabbing Central and Shattered Dreams Parkway.

The London thing is a strange one; of course they all want to get home to loved ones, and it isn’t their fault the rules changed so late in the day with little notice, it’s a question of personal responsibility again; go home to see family/friends at Christmas and potentially spread the virus...

Things have definitely evolved, it’s only the last couple of years places have started to stock craft stuff. It’s not spread to the smaller corner shop/Nisa’s etc yet though. At least not near me. Same with pubs, more and more offer real ales, and occasionally even a craft. They tend to be...

The local Co-op have a 4 for £7 offer on ales which is pretty good value wise. I tend to head straight to the craft section but it’s mainly “boring” stuff, in the sense it’s nothing unique and are widely available (Meantime, Brewdog, Camden Hells, Goose Island etc) - all good beers but nothing...

One that’s quite widely available these days and has the sharpy hoppiness is Oakham Citra. Haha I do like a flavoured stout/porter as opposed to a plain one. Old Growler by Nethergate Brewery is a nice traditional one.

Saltaire Triple Choc Stout? Sounds very nice, and it’s a new brewery for me too. I thought I’d tried one of theirs before but I don’t recognise the logo.

I like a darker beer (Porter, Stouts etc) around Christmas time, a few of my favourites: Titanic - Plum Porter (available in most supermarkets) Blue Monkey - Chocolate Guerrila DigBrew - Thoughts and Prayers (8% though!!) Titanic - Cherry Dark Brew York - Tonkoko (Milk Stout - vanilla and...

I haven't tried that one, as even though I dont mind Helles/Craft type lager I will plump for ale if I have a choice - and Aldi has a decent enough range of craft beers. What was it like? The Tempest Helles was nice - fairly malty and the usual characteristics you would expect. Still got a fair...

Never a foul and absolutely never a yellow - he’s trying to shoot!!

Dabo off the pace today unfortunately. Time for the enigma that is Kasteneer (joke). It is however absolutely time for Giles to have a go at their RB. He bombs forward leaving space and he’s on a booking.

Yes we are playing a more defensive formation and tactics, but it’s too defensive; that’s my point. It’s not binary, we can do a combination of both. Text Robins? Goodness me, how old are you.

Let’s hope it’s one of those games where we keep it tight and defensive first half, and second half we ease off the brake and play more offensively. We’re good enough to compete and expose their defensive vulnerabilities, while maintaining a solid defence. Sheaf has been too quiet thus far...

You realise we aren’t playing 4 at the back?

Huh? Think you’re mistaking me with someone else. Giving an observation or opinion doesn’t automatically make me a negative poster. Real shame that, I always thought you were a good poster!

Why do we sit so deep, it’s incredibly frustrating. We look such a poor team when we do and then when we attack we have one man ahead of the ball. We can’t rely on a Hamer wonderstrike. As with most games, we’ve seen glimpses of us playing football and we’ve looked the better for it. We then...

People enjoying us playing ‘direct football’ - working really well.
