Was closed last weekend. Just wondering if anyone has passed through there in the last few days. Thanks

Stoke City at home match thread
Kingswood Robin replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Absolutely. The club needs an injection of enthusiasm and drive. Some match day presence and connection with supporters would go a long way too. We look like a club that's just functioning and nothing more. We need to look like a club that's functioning and means business. -
Stoke City at home match thread
Kingswood Robin replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
We've reached Christmas and that's one home win since August, including getting embarrassed at home to Lincoln in the cup. We know what happens to teams that don't win at home. You can't keep serving that up to your home fans week in week out. A thumping at home to West Brom and Pearson could be for the chop, but then again are the money men interested anymore? Doesn't feel like anyone cares what happens and they are taking me down with them. -
There is that. We won't have to spend the summer being fed up with another England penalty nightmare or a play off defeat. Nothing better than another game straight away to get over a big disappointment.

Sad indeed. As a youngster I loved watching Hi-de-Hi, still makes me laugh now, especially the awkward moments between Gladys and Jeffrey Fairbrother. I also remember watching the entire Hi-de-Hi cast in Dick Whittington (Ruth Madoc in the leading role) at the Hippodrome back in the early 80's and it was brilliant.

What happens if teams finish level on points, goal difference, goals scored, results between teams?

Very true. Could do with subtitles on the big screens.

Are we the biggest underachievers in British football?
Kingswood Robin replied to ChippenhamRed's topic in Football Chat
Indeed. I do wonder if Steve even knew we played last night. -
I really do wish him all the best for a speedy recovery. I've often questioned the safety of the perimeters of football pitches. There have been quite a few of these unfortunate, sometimes tragic incidents. Maybe it's time for a re-think.

Never say never. When they were temporarily housed in the Dolman Stand, I recall a Radio Bristol commentator assuring me that Pearson would never come here, well he did. What will Gerrard do next? Will he just walk into a Premier League job, go back to Scotland? If not what's left for him, Championship or outside the UK? If any of those three want to stay in football, they may (like a lot of players) have to revise their expectations.

What will Gerrards next move be? Championship level?
-
I'd like him to stay, keep us up and rebuild some more in the summer. However, this is reminding me of one of those electric car tests, will it run out of power before getting to the destination? I fear we'll get to a position in the league where he won't make it to the end of the season.

Lincoln City at home Carabao Cup third-round match thread

Might be worth taking a closer look at that list! -

Middlesborough away match thread
Kingswood Robin replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Remember it well. The coldest I have ever been in a football ground. -
I wouldn't completely discount it. There might be someone out there, short term, that's a safe pair of hands (or feet) that could help keep us above the line.

I've seen us 5 times, 4 defeats and a 0-0 draw, 1 goal scored. Apart from a decent run and ball in where we hit the bar tonight, 50/50 crosses is about all I've seen in the final third. Decent effort, but it's not decent football in the final third. Results will not come if that's all we have about us. All the praised effort in the world doesn't hide the fact that a very poor Sheffield United have walked away with 3 points.
-
Far too repetitive and predictable. The same patterns of play over and over. Any competent defence will deal with the predictable all day long. Antoine got in behind them a few times, other than that nothing incisive.
-
I've never been to a game with VAR, but if it meant waiting longer than 30 seconds for a decision, or looking at a big screen every 5 minutes, I think I'd stick to watching my son play on Sunday mornings.

All Matches Postponed Until At Least 12/9/22
Kingswood Robin replied to BUTOR's topic in Football Chat
The EFL statement says it's in line with the approach of the FA, which I think all grass roots football falls under.
