  1. An interesting podcast on the BBC about the financial shenanigans at Notts County , remember Sven and Sol Campbell. 
    Worth a listen. 
     

    For those who don’t know the story. NCFC taken over by multi millionaire who employs a well known Manager and past it players with promise of new ground and the premier league within 5 years. Turns out to be a fraud. 
     

    Sorry perhaps this is better in Dustbin Rovers thread

  2. Whilst I agree with many of the previous suggestions I can add this one.

    Dec 28th Eastville howling gale of against us in first half and gas go in leading 1:0. At my first “away” derby in the muller road end feeling glum as most of my peers at school supported rovers (KLB Wotton Under edge) if there is anyone of that era on here.

    I was down at the front, my dad bless him someway behind me. An Elder red next to me says “ Cheer up cocker, we got the wind this half”. 
    Cue Kieth Fear (twice), Trevor Taunton, and Jimmy Mann and we win 4:1

    Made going back to school in Jan just that little easier..

    That was the team that next season was to get to Div 1

    Still have the somewhat crumpled program. A guy called Durrell played for us in that game but I don’t remember him at all.

    First half reflections:

    A very open game

    We have too often given the ball away far too cheaply

    As anticipated Fulham look very dangerous and comfortable on the ball, helped by our sloppiness at times

    We grew into after 25 minutes of them dominating

    Most of their threat is coming down our right

    Pring showing his desire and physicality

    Decent chance for Wells on 28 minutes

    Good move from Fulham on 41 minutes led to Bents making his first meaningful save

    Chalobah is walking a tightrope, one more bad challenge and he is off, he may be withdrawn at half-time

    Bakinson’s first touch let us down on 45 minutes

    Robins TV commentary is so biased it’s unreal!

     

     

    You ought to hear the Fulham version. Apparently the ‘Bristol’ player made  a meal of the second tackle by Chalobah.
