    Guess the crowd for Morecambe......

    I'd like to see it up around 15k (realistically, obviously I'd love to see it much higher). Making the decision later this week about whether to come back for it. I've got 5 deadlines and a family wedding around the weekend of the semis so I'll miss both legs if we get that far, figured I might...

    F1 2018 season

    What a race. Again. So many talking points. 2018 is shaping up very nicely so far! Hands down his luckiest I'd say, it was almost the equivalent of the Red Sea parting at the end with the Vettel and Bottas incidents and he knew it. Could almost call it payback for Melbourne with the amount of...

    F1 2018 season

    Looking forward to the start of this one with Vettel and Hamilton next to each other from the off. And Kimi compromised his own race before it even started, saving Ferrari having to do it for him! He had a lot of pace again though and the fact he starts on ultras means it could get tasty between...

    Not sure it was 442 in the end but more than happy to be bitten on the bum on this occasion, so to speak. PUSB!

    Match Thread Coventry City at Cheltenham Town Match Thread - Saturday 28th Apr

    433? Or 442 with Shippers and Bayliss wasted on the wings again?

    Things that are wrong with football thread

    I've got a book about football statistics at home, not to hand unfortunately, that talks about exactly this in one section. What was interesting for me was how it appears to be a very deliberate tactic at times. The game with the least "live ball" time on record (at time of publishing) was a...

    Stat of the weekend

    Yeah, non-league only brought them in in the late 80's. Might have been the year we won the cup actually :emoji_thinking: To paraphrase a saying, why ruin a good statistic with facts though!

    Stat of the weekend

    Nothing like a bit of sensationalism to start the week. Even if they weren't able to be promoted/relegated for a lot of it, watching a team in the same league, probably against largely the same teams for that long must get dull.

    Stat of the weekend

    We go on about not having finished 6th or above in any division for 48 years (and counting?), but an even greater wait was ended this weekend. Gainsborough Trinity (established in 1873) were relegated from the National North. It is the first time they have ever been promoted or relegated in...

    Lincoln, Mansfield or Us?

    When I say I'm not concerned with those 2 games I mean in terms of struggling to beat them. We've picked up after Yeovil/Notts C and seem to have got our confidence back, so I'm not worried like the OP. I think we can do exactly what you say and go into the play offs as the form team

    Lincoln, Mansfield or Us?

    Interestingly, seems like a few Mansfield fans think we're out of reach now. "What an absolute gimme tonight has been for Coventry. Think realistically looking at the fixtures now it's Lincoln who we have a chance of catching, massive day tomorrow" "So Coventry are out of the picture. We need...

    What are you doing with your 'day off'?

    Should be watching Salford gain promotion to the National League. Only need a draw at home against mid-table Boston to clinch the title. I’ll be entertaining friends instead though, had the day in the calendar for a while unfortunately and both of the hate football.

    F1 2018 season

    Had to get a train yesterday morning so only caught the first half of the race, then listened to the rest on the radio. Caught up with the highlights last night. Great strategy call by Red Bull yesterday, gave Danny and Max the platform to show what they can do when they've got a reliable car...
