    Gary Hooper-Guardian Scouting report

    Have to admit I liked Hoops as a player for us though I never thought he'd make the grade any higher than League 1 or 2.The valuation here is pretty generous too I feel. <League OneScouting report: Gary Hooper, Scunthorpe United The 20-year-old Iron forward has a good touch and can play at...

    I would like us to sign Izzy Iriekpen as cover.

    Tilly's Half time Team Talk

    I knew we had performed better in the first half compared to the 2nd half of games this year, however I am staggered by the difference. We are the only team in the division not to have been losing a game at half time, and have the best record, being in front 6 times and drawing 4. First Half...

    The Saturday Alternative: Shrimper in Suffolk

    Cannot quite face the trip up to Carlisle this Saturday? But still at a loss re what to do (and we cannot rely on Blues World)? Well, the real alternative option is here. At 3.00 pm this Saturday 6 September in the Deanery Gardens in Hadleigh, Suffolk, SHRIMPER THE DOG is going for a hatrick...

    Hottest Burger In The World (some rude words)

    This is in Brisbane, shall I have a go when I get there in a months time and report back? Yeah, like f*** I will! was digging around the zGeek forums the other day when I stumbled across one of the funniest post-hot-food-eating articles I've ever read. "Cranky" had heard about the "Off the...
  7. Squad

    I no there are other threads on this but after todays game just wanted to seek other peoples opinions on how many players do we really need. So far we have GK: Mildenhall, Joyce LB: Herd RB:Francis CB: Barrett, Clarke. Sankofa apparently can play across the back four...but i dont feel to...
  8. The ESB Report (Sorry FBM)

    Had to write an 800 word report on the game last night for an assesment, and here it is: DONCASTER held Southend to a goal-less draw at Roots Hall to take a slight advantage in the League One play-off semi final. Rovers, who finished three places and four points ahead of their Essex...

    Frank Rijkaard

    It's a sign of the times that two teams placed third in their domestic leagues can be led by managers under intense media pressure, but Barcelona's visit to Gelsenkirchen, home of Schalke 04, saw two halves of football that went a long way to explaining why. Frank Rijkaard has come in for...

    Official SZ Match Report - Huddersfield Town

    I think Matt & James are otherwise detained today, so I am just going to post my report as a thread on here (instead of it being uploaded to the main page - for the time being!)
  11. BT - OD Match 7

    Massive games for both halves of the BB household today. I'm playing the top-side today and need to win to have any chance of promotion. With the exception of Middleton at Energetic, everybody is Sublime, so it's a full strength side on GFI. Oppo is obviously a bit worried as he has changed...

    Spurs Superior To Baffling Blues

    We all chuckled when Jonathan Woodgate claimed that he joined Tottenham in order to have a chance of winning trophies but, appropriately enough, it was the former Middlesbrough centre-back who delivered the long-suffering club their first silverware in nine years at Wembley Stadium. “Scoring...
  13. All New Line Up!

    It's true! Matt Harrold goes to centre back next to Black. Ok, okay stop yelling! :hilarious: Up front would be Adam & Collis. Yes, yes I know - I haven't forgot the GK - it's Gower, no, no you'll see!?! It will all make sense! :minger: Flavs on the left wing because he kicks it out there...

    McClaren's pre-Croatia match notes leaked

    Shamelessly stolen from another forum, but I don't care :D Mc – Right, Tel, thanks to Israel I can still get us through to the Euros and can’t afford any mistakes. Goalkeeper – who’s the best in the country? TV – Rob Green Mc – Don’t know him. Is he in the squad? TV – No. Mc – Who have we got...
  17. Cheltenham Raings - My view

    Collis - 6 - Not sure whether or not at fault for the 1st as you could blame almost half the team for falling asleep. Not his usual commanding self and a few more games like this and Darryl might be back. Not just yet though. Hunt - 5 - Player of the month?? Do me a favour Tilly and bring...

    Stiff's Tonight v Ipswich: Match Report

    An excellent evening's entertainment watched by a crowd of 415 at Portman Road. The 5-4 defeat didn't of course really matter and it would have been nice to have come away with a point which after good spells in the middle bits of both halves we probably deserved. Oddly despite conceding 5 the...

    defeat from the jaws of victory

    Just back, and do i feel depressed! The game was won by thier manager who didnt appear to be afraid to make tactical substitutions when things were'nt going right! The introduction of the giant striker was a stroke of genius that turned the game on its head and led to instant panic in the...

    Amazing facts, nobody believes

    Following on from the handshakes thread, I once heard that you know everyone in the world through 5 people. Not hard to imagine looking at the thread. 'Know' of course means 'seen' or had some kind of contact with. It's one of theose mind blowing things that nobody believes. Here is another...
