I see Ade Azeez is also little more than an impact sub at Thistle. It is a shame to see players like this move to clubs only to get what they could have got with us. I suppose their wages are higher though.

I like the look of Kelly though. I don’t think we’ll miss Callam with him as backup. Less sure about Poleon though from what I’ve seen. The…[Read more]

The first home game of the season always has a special feeling. A walk in shirt sleeves to the ground, a drink friends you haven’t seen since May, and if you’re luck a win. Unfortunately the later wasn’t true yesterday. We played well in patches, even had more clear cut chances than the opposition, but ended up on the losing side. Does this all…[Read more]

I rarely get to read the whole of WDSA from cover to cover in one go. Life has a habit of interrupting. Last night I made an exception. I shut myself away and read it.

Maybe it is euphoria still rushing through my veins, but I have to see a massive “Well Done” to Rob and his team for a thoroughly enjoyable, emotional read.

One stand out article…[Read more]

With the prospect of Lyle Taylor running himself ragged on the wide expanses of the Wembley turf, I’m starting a sweepstake on when he first gets cramp. The smart money is in the first half 🙂

Don’t prevaricate!

On the day we knew we’d get Accy in the playoffs, I looked at the logistics of getting there and staying overnight. The result was a return train ticket for £55 and a hotel a mile from the ground for around £55. Not bad.

I got home after the first leg and checked again. Train ticket up to £150 and the nearest hotel 6-7 mi…[Read more]

Pompey are out, so it is Plymouth at Wembley if we hold onto our slender lead on Wednesday.

Right. Where’s Accrington. 🙂

It’s a good job Neil Ardley and the team are relaxed about the Accrington game, because I’m as nervous as hell. I wasn’t this nervous before the FA Cup final, the Conference Play Off final, or even last ditch game against survival against Fleetwood three years ago. I’ve had butterflies for three days now.

Why? I don’t know. Maybe it is all the…[Read more]

Unfortunately due to a family emergency I didn’t get to make it to Dagenham. I was gutted. I did make it back home by 7:30pm and tuned in to the excellent Radio WDON, whilst trying to catch up with some work. After the first 10 minutes when we could have been 3-0 up, the work was forgotten.

Rob, your analysis is spot on. I was thinking back to…[Read more]

The dream is still very much alive. Akinfenwa may not have been able to work his magic, but Robinson surely did. He was immense all game, as was Darius Charles, Captain Fuller and Master Meades. Bulman had the run of the centre of the park against his old club, and the joker Lyle Taylor ran himself into the ground up front. He even found time to…[Read more]

Whilst I disagree with the tone of Trevor’s comments, I’d back his right to say what he feels. Just saying 🙂

…and that other lot lost 4-0 in a real relegation six pointer. This is turning out to be a great day. Get in!

Adebayo Akinfenwa that may just be your 88th minute swan song, but what a beautiful thing it is. Come on you Dons!!
