TMWANG50

A lot of ifollow games I've watched use local (very bias!) radio commentary probably to keep costs down so you don't have all the studio stuff you get with Robins TV. But I assume they must pay to use the commentary.

Yate game is in August???

Yeah U23's friendlies mainly, seems odd we don't help promote local clubs via these fixtures especially as tonight's is for charity. One tweet might get a few extra on the gate? I usually go to the Yate Town one but away on holiday this year so was looking for an alternative game to go to with my son as the club seem to have forgotten most people work/at school in July during the day?

Surely no one is running in this heat.....?

Or they will add in a few extra dates *due to exceptional demand, standard tactic from promoters.

Is there a list of u23 fixtures anywhere (the club don't seem to promote them for some reason) tempted to go tonight but didn't know if there were any closer fixtures next week? thanks.

I've still got the shorts from this season definitely green

Its an interesting one, I'd say he shows a complete lack of respect to anyone and even the sport at times so why should anyone show him any respect but then you read about the abuse he receives some even racial and you can see how he behaves the way he does. Spitting towards someone though seriously that's not a great reaction get your water bottle out and drown the fella would have been better . I went to Wimbledon on Day one, the Aussie fans were by far the loudest though so I'd be interested to hear what most Aussies think of him?

They could do loads more just trying to think of some of the old schemes. - Membership pack - key ring/stationary/member card/signed photo of fav player - Junior red day - free match entry or a quid for a kid and a tour of the ground pre match - Birthday card - signed by fav player - Zoom Q&A with a few players/Nige throughout the season (would cater for fans who live further afield and was popular in lockdowns) - Junior reds party - Reduced coach travel - A dedicated junior reds U23 game - free entry/tour of HPC - Junior reds Charity day - get the kids out raising money for a worthy cause or collecting for charity on match day and get free match entry I think the trouble is these days the club just wouldn't put any staffing resource at it or let anyone do it voluntarily but I could be wrong?

Posh 1-1 this season. Why don't I go more? Kids, cost, parking, transport, moved further away, I was only saying a the weekend it was far easier when the attendance was half the size and you could rock up half an hour before and park pretty close to the ground without any worries now its almost like a military operation...

Perhaps we are expecting a few bids for Weimann after the season he has had?

Anyone do the Westonnirt 10k last night, didn't even realise it was on ?

Interesting odds Ukraine 1/3, UK 11/2 second favourites. The UK lad seems like a really decent chap good luck to him just a shame its another year ruined by Politics..

Lee Johnson quickly faxing his CV to Dale from Scotland no doubt... ? Pretty terirble show from Edwards he owed FGR a lot more than that but I guess thats football these days.

Well done mate very impressive... 3 a week is a push for me..

ITV are terrible they will definitely not get the right mix they will just wheel out someone already under contract to keep costs down...

Huddersfield - manager of the season to get them from where they were last year to third place Wycombe - again what a job the long haired one has done, their style isn't pretty but they get results Northants - just to see them play the Gas next year

I did read something saying that Maradonna's family were claiming it wasn't his shirt (I assume they are skint and have another one!) but Hodge could prove it by the specific details. Great pay day for him fair play but probably a lawsuit heading his way...

Plenty of ways already to watch any EFL game without a VPN at a fraction of the cost if you know the right people and have no morals...

That interview was typical Robins TV tripe, more scripted than Made In Chelsea :laugh: He's hardly going to say what he really feels on the club channel..

@phantomDepends what/who the best network signal for 4g is in his area. The best thing to do is get an unlimted data SIM that doesn't offer restrictions and has a decent 4g signal. I bought a Three SIM because they threw in a free 4g router (but you can buy any off ebay). When the contract expired I switched to Lebara (who use Vodafone) as its only £5 a month for the first six months so cheap as chips and no need to bother with your phone! You can also buy a booster aerial to connect to your 4g router and stick it outside or on a window ledge . I've got one of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Poynting-4G-XPOL-A0001-Cross-Polarised-Antenna/dp/B00C1DGFPS/ref=asc_df_B00C1DGFPS/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310776295886&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1240181157949401464&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9045580&hvtargid=pla-562988606361&psc=1&th=1&psc=1 I can now stream off a Firestick to watch Robins TV with no issues other than from the team....so he will have no issues with an alexa

Good to see a healthy return on the £11.1 million investment Team GB put into winter sports for Bejing....

I was a bit underwhelmed the Americans have got to stop devaluing the game, it felt like it lasted twice as long as a normal game but they never will as its all about the money/show. Both teams never really got into gear offensively and there weren't too many explosive plays in the second half. Definitely thought the officials tried to correct the wrong of the face mask but the Rams always looked like getting the score anyway. Fair play to Stafford he's handled the pressure and done the business despite two more picks and a lot of doubters he never would have got their with Detroit (who now get some very low draft picks in exchange!!). Halt time show was a bit of a 90's revival but both M&M and Mary J sounded like they were mostly miming or singing to backing vocals which was pretty poor, 50 cent semeed to be more the size of 500 cent. Still a lot better than the last few they've done but I'd still sooner rather have a 15 minute half time and get on with the game :laugh:. 3 hours sleep so onwards and upwards at work!

It was a puzzling performance thought he had a decent game when he reffed the Stoke home game and gave us a few decisions in that one, including a let off for Scott when he went over the ball with a bad tackle, Klose got away with a similar one last night. It was almost like someone had briefed him prematch that he was a bit of a homer last time he was at AG so he needed to give the away side more of the 50/50 decisions and some! The pen whilst soft you could argue Klose made no effort to play the ball at all and contact although from his butt was made and you give the ref a decision to make. The second one I thought was definitely no pen on the replay Ince clearly just uses his own body to create the contact/downward movment so maybe we need to cut the ref some slack with that one. The standard of refs does seem to have fallen of a cliff in recent times though, I do wonder if its beacuse they themselves are getting over analysed after every game by the powers that be (they can get binned or demoted leagues at the drop of a hat) and this is knocking their confidence to ref how they want to ref...
