    New Stoppage time

    Excellent news, hate some of the time wasting we’ve seen in the past few seasons, Preston, Blackburn to name just two.

    Luis Binks

    This lad appears to have his head screwed on, willing to learn and ambitious. If he’s joining us, he’s coming for a first team place.

    Denis Dragus

    For a friendly that looked like a pretty competitive game, with a committed crowd.

    Curb Your Enthusiasm

    I think there’s a danger that we are over hyping our situation. I think we’ve brought unproven players in, who have potential. And we’re still short in the squad. I worry a bit about the expectation, Leicester may dampen it a bit (although obviously I hope not!)

    Newcastle

    Not for me Alex, and I would imagine, a good number of our fans would not want to be bankrolled by a country with a poor human rights record, although some fans would not be bothered. I quite like my club being well run, and not taking some dodgy sovereign wealth fund money. Newcastle taking...

    Watching the city game

    Watching the Man City game last night reminded me of our game against Luton. A better footballing team stopped in its tracks by a team that had done its homework and employed a highly effective, aggressive press, that stopped the other team playing. The difference was that Luton were always...

    Devon sky blues. Pre-season, Exeter.

    I’m on holiday in Cornwall prior to this game, so having not been to this St James’ Park, it will be a must!

    First idols

    Willie Carr first and foremost, closely followed by Ian Gibson, Ronnie Rees, Ernie Machin, Bobby Gould etc etc. Come to think of it, just about all of that 66/67 team. To do with how old I was at the time, I guess, and that fantastic period.

    Retained List

    Is there any chance that we’ll go back in for McNally and/or Doyle, who have both been excellent for us. Either another loan, or preferably purchase? Perhaps BNC?

    Play off final ratings

    Just back in Northumberland. A real sickener, but honestly, we didn’t do enough to win. It’s been a great season for our small squad. Thanks to Makala for the ticket, and good to meet you. Next season may be difficult, if we lose players, trust in Robins/Viveash to work miracles again….

    Thread for those looking for final tickets

    Hi everyone! I’m still looking for a ticket for myself. So if anyone suddenly and unexpectadly has a spare ticket, I would be very grateful. I would be travelling down from Newcastle, so perhaps best to meet at Wembley? A long shot, but nothing ventured…….. Thanks - and good luck to the team and...

    Jodi Jones

    Scores a 119th winner for Notts County against Bromley in the National League play-off semi-final. Delighted for him.

    Godden

    Although I think his impact in games has largely been minimal, I haven’t seen a lack of effort at all. At Swansea he worked hard to close down their defenders, as he does in most games.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Swansea City vs Coventry City Match Thread - Friday 7th Apr

    Was it as bad as that? I thought both sets of fans were decent in the first half, second half, both sets of fans more subdued, perhaps the game was very cagey and absorbing, and everyone was too busy watching?

    Coventry Strikers

    I remember one blockbuster goal Gould scored from outside the are. The keeper got his finger tips to it, and had to go off injured, a broken or dislocated finger. It may have been this game, dunno.
