    They do it every year. I recall several hundred Star Wars stormtroopers on trains to Plymouth a few years back, There was a picture of one railway platform somewhere that was packed with them.

    Another year they all went as smurfs.

  2. Mark Clattenburg would have been involved in this I would imagine. He is a consultant at Florist.

    A truly embarrassing statement this and they should have the book thrown at them.

  3. Never known a season like this one. So many games postponed and no extension to the season. Also never known as many players on dual registration late in the season. Some have been playing 4 times in a week for their 2 different teams. Paulton had one player who played for Corsham on the Friday night and then turned out for Paulton the following afternoon. Whereas the poor old premier league players moan about playing too many games the poor little lambs.

    Gloucester City relegated today after a 1-6 home thumping from Chester. The return to Gloucester really hasn't gone to plan after the 13 year exile. The chairman's "don't go down, don't go bust" mantra has come back to haunt him. At least they'll be more local away games than being in National League North. 

    See that Owain Brain scored Gloucester's goal from 25 yards today. Signed from Bristol Manor Farm, very good player.

  5. Alex will go to the very top in my opinion. What people are forgetting is that he has had a stop / start season with his injuries. The little run of games, when he first came back, all of the pundits were giving him credit for helping turn Bournemouth's bad start around and then he got crocked by a bad tackle and was out again. 

    Hasn't refound his best firm since.

    Didn’t realise Westbury and Exmouth were in the southern league. How long have they been up there? They didn’t go up through the western league did they?

    Think this is Exmouth's first season up but I went to Westbury last season so this must be there 2nd season. Not sure what league they came up out of though.

    Is that dual registration or has he just left Paulton?

    Presumably can't be dual reg within the same league?

    Can't imagine he'd have been popular in the dressing room after some of his interviews and tweets, but he also made a big song and dance about saying he'd carry on playing for Paulton after being sacked

    No he was released, new manager, Fey didn't want him. 

    Been a shambles this year. Started throwing money at it since Fey came in, although 4 of the new players don't appear to be fit for selection.. 

    Went wrong before Tooze took over, the ex Shepton manager was brought in and he signed a load of their players. They are Western league players and just not good enough.

    But from what I have heard that is the budget that they and then Toozey were working to.

    Western league tour next season.

    You'll be even happier to hear Evesham lost 2-0 at home to Malvern and Cribbs lost 4-0 at home to Bishops Cleeve 

    Here's tonight's table Screenshot_20240401_174746_Chrome.jpg

    Meanwhile, we (Paulton Rovers) are going down with a whimper. Lost 3-0 at Yate today. Exmouth have picked up big time and Westbury have a couple of games in hand. Tooze who was Paulton manager until recently is now playing for Westbury. You couldn't make it up...

    another point firstly why is Max Bird coming to us surely Derby are a bigger club , also is he injured already I have looked at the team sheets for the last month or so and he not in line ups or on bench 

    Yep Bird is currently out injured

    I'm watching this on stream. The second goal has the most comical defending I've seen in a while. Guaranteed fbomb from Taylor in his post match radio bristol I reckon.

    Oh, and their goalie looks a bit shite as well 😀

    The keeper has just signed a new 4yr contract as well 🙂
