Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (a)

If Yfeko was the player targeted he should have been applauded as without his dreadful error we would probably have lost the game. Unfortunately when the performances are as dull as ours have been the story becomes about something else such as chanting or the referee being blamed or my personal fav...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (a)

genuine hearty LOL about 'anti Starmer' chants. get. a. f u cking. grip. I was just using it as an example because when the warning was read out some of them started the Starmer chant. We should all be smart enough to understand you mean the sort of absolute oxf*rd wit that sings negative chants ab...

Mid Sussex Royal https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/live/c701dn2y9gdt

The BBC match report covers the background to the stoppage.

To be fair, some of our away following has been embarrassing over the last few years, can't be arsed to go to many away games anymore

MR. CYNICAL FFS, if he's not up to speed, he shouldn't be starting,
We're not good enough to be playing players not fully fit


Then how do you get match fitness without playing? Fucking hell.


Playing some u21/vertu cup games may have helped. Bit odd he hasn’t

Exactly, could of got some minutes on Tuesday

Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (a)

Was feeling confident with Ritchie and OConnor starting but we still drag out another lame ineffective performance. Jacob was poor but OConnor as much at fault for their goal, twice had a chance to put a challenge in and didn’t bother also looks well slow so will fit right in ! You are a serious em...

Re: Exeter City (A)

Royal_jimmy I hate these sorts of games. Very hard to book train travel with the uncertainty whether it'll go ahead or not

Last time I looked, trains looked a bit of a pain, seemed to take a lot longer than normal. Think there is some works going on further down the line.

Re: Stadium

From the Couhig Q&A : 12. Are there any plans to bring Safe standing to the SCL? Following a discussion with other Staff members earlier today, the topic of safe standing was brought up. Rob said it will be explored and looked at. It’s not just the 1871 area of the ground that could see the int...

Re: MATCHWATCH : West Ham United U21

Afraid to say, another reason the gates have gone down is that the football is crap, negative tactics at home games won't bring the fans back.

Re: MATCHWATCH : West Ham United U21

The non first team games never used to be on any TV channel but with streaming it would be interesting to know how many people watch games in that way. ...living in RG1 I'd class myself as pretty local to the SCL - but two or three factors have worked against me of late when pondering attendance at...

Re: MATCHWATCH : West Ham United U21

No, I'm a season ticket holder of over 50 years, only ever watch RFC, wouldn't watch a champions league game if you paid me. Why would you expect people to turn up in their masses to watch us play West Ham u21's in an irrelevant lower league competition? I actually watched the game on Sky as it was...

Re: MATCHWATCH : West Ham United U21

Given how much people claim to care about the continued existence of a club when it is about to disappear, and will sing Reading till I die on repeat all evening, it often surprises me how low the interest is in going to actually watch. Youths will spend hours on social media commenting all things ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : West Ham United U21

I'd like to see us try and have a run in this this season....the league looks done already, we'll likely pull clear of the bottom area but aren't going to challenge the top half. It's only the end of September, how can you say the league looks done already? Nobody is interested in this tin pot comp...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Stockport County (a)

Hunt has turned this team into one with such a soft underbelly. We were so much more solid last season, now we look like we'll concede under every attack. To be fair, we did lose two championship-quality centre backs over the summer. Don't think we've been great defensively for the last few seasons...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Stockport County (a)

Who Moved The Goalposts? The stats on BBC don't make great reading. Especially the one that states we haven't touched the ball inside their box.

That's what I meant by toothless and powderpuff

Hunt has turned this team into one with such a soft underbelly. We were so much more solid last season, now we look like we'll concede under every attack. Is it surprising with our two best defenders injured? We've not looked solid at the back all season, a lot is due to our midfield being so weak ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Stockport County (a)

Last three results against Stockport: 1-5 (1998) 1-4 1-3 So if that pattern continues we'll only lose 2-1 right? Then on for a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture. That 1-5 game in 1998 was just an utterly miserable night; not only was the football dire, but it absolutely lashed down before, during and...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Wrexham (a)

Yes, last season, there seemed to be a special bond between players and fans unseen for years, despite the off field drama and it was great to see the academy lads step up and almost nick a play off spot against all odds, no wonder this season feels so flat.
