    Burge can still prove he can eradicate them. I have no idea how many managers LoB has had during his career but it appears he hasn’t been favoured by many (probably any) of them. They can’t all be wrong. They also know a lot more than me or you.

    Despite being 26 and having a professional career spanning 9 years O’Brien has only made 59 Football League appearances as well as a few for Eastbourne Borough and Hastings United. He’s spent the majority of his career on the bench in League Two for Barnet and Dagenham & Redbridge. What makes...

    Match Thread MK Dons Coach Travel £12

    Jimbo from TnS is also doing it for 12 quid from the Wallace. Leaves at 11:15. The 15 quid the club are charging is really 16 due to the booking fee. That’s 33% more than what the original poster and Jimbo are charging. They’re a business, need to make money and have filled 5 coaches so fair cop...

    His kicking errors did almost cost us another goal but some of them were down to Stokes and co passing him the ball when a player was already in close proximity. Shipley has been very good but over the last few weeks he’s needed a rest. We’ve got Haynes available and it wouldn’t do any harm if...

    Bad day at the office in all areas. We didn’t look like scoring until injury time at the end of the game. The only time any urgency was shown was when Ponticelli came on. Even the little things like sprinting to get the ball for throws and corners. Defensively we were shocking. Burge will get...

    Agree 100%. Wage caps and FFP are completely pointless at the elite level. There are so many ways round it. If they can pay a player of max of say 50k due to the limit on squad wages they’ll just pay the wife 50k to work in the office for a few hours a week. Even much lower down on the sports...

    Tomorrow

    Last season we went in the fan village. Think it’s open every game and is away fan friendly. Cheapish food and drink including a real ale bar. All locally sourced too. Found their fans very friendly. They’re a fan owned club which normally makes it welcoming.

    Yeah. They were getting very low crowds in that stadium and they were liquidated.

    Me plus 8. 4 of us are doing the PDC Masters the night before in MK and have got an apartment overnight. We'll have some beers in the fridge and anyone that facies stopping by before the game is more than welcome. Even you Nick!

    If I can sneak a barbecue in can you fit a cool box under your jumper?

    Turnbull Recalled with a Permanant Move in the coming days.

    Carry on making signings like that and they’ll be passing Nuneaton soon too. There are many reasons why we got relegated. Selling our best player and releasing a competent & more than adequate centre half to bring him in has to be in the top 3.

    Robert Jarni

    I’ll never forget that Forest game. Despite the score line they were still robbed. Campbell was a class act. Isn’t he the highest scoring player in Europe’s major leagues without an international cap?

    Hartlepool

    That may be true but he’s always seemed like a genuinely nice guy and a man of the people. His speech the other week on the honours system says a lot. It did cross my mind that he could probably stump up the cash to pay the bill but maybe he doesn’t trust those in charge. In fact I’d say that’s...

    Robert Jarni

    Nilsson on one side and Jarni on the other. Imagine how good that would’ve been. Also for a combined cost of 2.7m. I know Roland was knocking on a bit when he came in but you would never have known. How much would a full back partnership of that quality cost today? 70m? I’m think the game Jarni...

    Fit for purpose

    Preston more than had enough funds to cover a takeover at even a vastly inflated price. His old man had significantly more than him and was willing to back him too. They weren’t time wasters and were genuine but when it got down to trying to a deal they realised they couldn’t due to various...

    Another sad story. Only 23 years old. Widnes Viking’s Centre passes away. Widnes Vikings centre Kato Ottio dies at the age of 23
