Sad All Over

As we're Non-Leaguers, our FA Cup interest usually begins somewhere around September\October time. And frequently ends around then too. But if we're really lucky we might get to stumble through a couple of rounds, pinch a few FA Pounds for the kitty and get our name in the paper. So when the Final rocks round come May, we've usually already got our feet up at home. And if we're feeling really active, we'll go to the pub and watch it.

2015/2016 Season Review - Part 3

So, in Part 2 we were knocked out of the Trophy and then let back in, the boys really started picking up some points in the league and then front runners tantalisingly started dropping some. Which has made things rather exciting for the last part of our season review for a fucking change! Do we get to Wembley? Can we hunt down Ebbsfleet for the title or are we doomed to the misery of the Play Offs again?

Clicky clicky, findy outy!

2015/2016 Season Review - Part 2

In Part 1 after a slow-ish start and a mildly disappointing FA Cup exit, it's all eyes on the League now. Sadly, that's not gone quite as well as we'd hoped so far and the leading teams are already seemingly miles ahead of us. Plus we've already shed our captain. So it's time to pull up our socks and get on with winning some points! Well, once we've got the FA Trophy and dreams of Wembley out of the way that is...

Here's Part 2 with all the details.

2015/2016 Season Review - Part 1

With the season done & dusted and celebratory hangovers to be dealt with, here's the first part of our Annual end of season filler material Season Review. Like most seasons, we don't start particularly quickly. But unlike last season, we do at least improve a bit over the course of the 9 months. Quite a lot in fact. So much so, it all ends happily every after. And then some.

But that's all to come way down the line in Parts 2 & 3. You've got to plough through all the boring stuff before we get to the exciting bit. Think of it like having nothing but Broccoli for starter and main course, with a lovely bit of treacle sponge & custard for dessert.

Time Gentleman Please

It's six o'clock on a Saturday morning. My dreams of a jelly wrestling competition in a paddling pool involving Jamie Lee Curtis & Sigourney Weaver are rudely interfered with by the Soviet nation anthem, "Soyuz nerushimy respublik svobodnykh" bellowing out at this ungodly hour for a weekend morning from my phone. I would've put the writing in what Mr X calls "Acrylic" for that bit, but couldn't be fuckin' bothered!
