I've migrated to Bluesky because I am finding Twitter to be a cesspit of the highest order. However, I've kept the Twitter account because I love to see the odd bit of weird complaining from Richard Keys on there. As poor a reason to keep something as there has ever been.

Scored for Enfield Town in the English FA Trophy today. AT signed for them a couple of weeks ago. From League One to Vanarama National League South... Scored 2 in 2 now. Tbf, he never played for us in League One and had a decent enough spell with Barnet last year. Feel like going from VNL to VNS is...

Yes, it's needed for the people who don't have instant access to Youtube on their tv or those who dont want to watch highlights on VPN.

I think it's a real storm in a teacup. He's been silly and caught out on a video made years ago, probably high off his tits judging by the content. He'll probably get a suspension for the rest of the season, or dropped to the EFL - but plenty of other people have done worse things and returned. The ...

I think that our Summer recruitment was some of the worst I have ever known in my 50 years of supporting the Orient. Worse than *that* Jackett January window? I guess arguably so as the summer window is meant to be when you have better options available so Ling likes to tell us I’d say this summer ...

Watched Wolfs last night. It's just an excuse to have George Clooney and Brad Pitt together, looking very good but slightly older and making quips, which are at best mildly amusing. Not much to write home about, but inoffensive and an hour and half does go by quickly.

Ironically the last decent strike partnership by goal tallies we had was bought by Jackett ending up in an awful season. Which again had a downturn triggered by appalling recruitment in a transfer window. There's a recurring theme here. Just seen the goal, appalling from Brown no pace or even nous ...

Ironically the last decent strike partnership by goal tallies we had was bought by Jackett ending up in an awful season. I'm convinced Wellens can turn it round, but I think the idea of progress this year won't be happening for most fans. I think we have more than enough to stay in the division, but...

Costs money which we don't have because we have spent most of it on crap loanees And Solar panels !! Eventually they will pay for themselves and will be a worthwhile investment. Diallang Jaiyesimi and Lewis Warrington so far haven't proven they've been worthwhile investments, neither have half the ...

The build up from the back is painful to watch, so boring .Back, sideways, sideways, sideways, back , sideways the main reason I havent attended a match all season . Its so obvious we need a proven goalscorer that scores goals on a regular basis for us , wasted money on Solar Panels instead, totall...

My mate peed himself when we signed DJ. Called him a fat, lazy and useless. I like that when I suggested this before people said "oh other fans are bitter". Think he was right.

But its okay guys, buy your tickets at £30 a pop.

Should be about 3,000 more of us tonight?

Yes.

Visiting coffee shops. Tried almost all of them in a 8 mile radius in the last year in my spot in the new forest. Turns out the best ones are always in cycle shops. Used to be a great coffee place off Cheapside in a cycle shop that got lost with the pandemic, but the Woods Cyclery in Lyndhurst is fa...

It really wouldn't surprise me if he's setting up someone with blanks to get more popularity after the last attempt. I think the guys a maniac, and will stop at nothing to win this election.

5 starts in 2 years is an impressive stat.

Why ???? We have midfielders coming out our ear holes has Warrington fallen out with Wellens? We need a permanent keeper and decent striker and who does Ling sign another injury prone midfielder. It’s run by nutters Talking of nutters, you want us to sign a sixth goalkeeper ? Cos the sixth one migh...

For the first time under NT things seem to be moving in the wrong direction, and I’ll hold my hands up and say I’m more critical of the club than most(nah can’t believe that🫢) so we have to look at the positives. We have a good manager,some good young talent a fairly good defensive line an ok midfi...

No, Mondragone is gone. Personally I never liked it. As Keef has said, the Village, for all its pretentiousness, has an absence of decent restaurants. At the St James St end of the High Street (so they'll need to navigate the pickpockets) is a decent tapas place - Don Francisco Y La Luna. On Hoe St...

Wellens completely let down by the owner, I just don’t understand how other clubs like Wycombe and Burton have got billionare takeovers and we haven’t, time to move on and move with the times, sell up Has to be the correct billionaire though. We can't afford another one that would piss us away with...

If I was a betting man I'd be putting some money on it .

Was 3/1 at the start of the season, and now its 7/2. Must be doing something right

Anything above 3 is probably generous for half the side today.

We have fullbacks who pass sideways or lose the ball We have no one taking the ball off centre backs We have no one in CM willing to drive forward and get the ball out to wide players The wide players when they eventually get the ball either lose it or go backwards Donley and Kelman got no service....
