Re: Essex CCC

A disappointing defeat against Somerset and now we are getting a real hiding against Yorkshire. We look very average without Cook, Cox and Walter. This could be a very long season.

Re: Frank Nouble award 2024/25

Must admit that I had completely forgotten about Warrington. Looked pretty poor on the rare occasions that I saw him.

Re: Kelman-RW says fans have cost us £millions

Have to confess that I was one of the people who was slightly less than delighted when Charlie signed on loan for us this season. Very happy to admit that I was totally wrong. He has been excellent for us and I’d be very happy to sign him for next season no matter what league we are in.

Can any bright spark on here work out how many 3.00 on a Saturday afternoon games there have been this season? Seems to have been loads of night games and strange Saturday kick off times.

Re: Teddie Lamb gone for £355,000

Sums up the lunacy of the Premier League. Paying £355,000 for a 16 year old kid who hasn’t played a minute of first team football for a League One side. And if it doesn’t work out, who cares? It’s just small change for City.

Last 20 minutes we simply could not keep hold of the ball nor could we win a second ball. Very disappointing.

Re: Matchday (evening) and exiles thread vs Rotherham 04/03/25

When we played against Charlton their manager stated that they had a fully fit squad to pack from. And a couple of weeks earlier I read that Charlton had been unchanged for 5 consecutive games. So, no squad rotation for them. Is it just that our high energy, high pressing game generates more injurie...

Re: Exiles thread - Charlton (H)

Thought Charlton's two wide players the number 7 and the 25 (who was a huge unit) looked really decent. The keeper looked good too. But the rest of them I thought were very poor. They are just a real hoofball team full of huge physical players - a bit like watching Wimbledon in the late 70s. And the...

Re: Home to Stevenage

8.00 on a Thursday night - a perfect time to watch a game of football. But if you sell your soul to TV you have to accept what they throw at you. Who cares about the fans? They are becoming increasingly irrelevant.

Re: No tickets sold for the Stevenage game

Let's be honest. Stevenage are not exactly the most attractive of opponents. In fact, they are probably the least attractive of opponents!
