  • In all competitions, Brighton have drawn after normal time, 14 of their last 19 games. In six of those they equalised in the last few minutes. They did not draw a single one of their first seven matches,
  • Roy Hodgson is the sixth man to manage Watford since they kept a Premier League clean sheet.
    Love this one

    Dennis Wise met the Pope this week

    And the Pope clearly thought "who is the idiot at the end taking a selfie rather than looking forwards for the actual photo?"


  • Cameron Branagan has scored a hat-trick of penalties for Oxford @ Gillingham today

    He's the first person to do it since Josh Wright for Gillingham

  • 4 penalties for Brannagan now
  • Prior to last Saturday Andrew Dallas had gone 18 consecutive games without scoring. That day his side, Solihull, defeated Southport 3-0 in the F A Trophy and then today they beat Dover 5-0 in the National League. Dallas scored all eight goals. Not sure how Dallas felt though today as he was denied the opportunity to score more as he was brought off after 56 minutes! 
    Following 18 consecutive matches without scoring, Dallas has scored in each of this last four games. In fact, he found the net no less than 11 times in those four matches - and was only on the pitch for 315 minutes in total.
  • Craig Mcgilivray has been involved in 4 Papa johns trophy (and whatever it was called before) finals for 3 different clubs. Winning 1 and losing 3. 
    It could well be 5 finals with 4 teams this season. 
    This post aged well 😉
    Give it time. 
  • Next season will be Charlton’s 9th in 14 seasons in the third tier .
    In the previous 67 seasons only 4 were spent in the third tier .

    Hartlepool have signed more players in this window than charlton despite nearly going out of business 2 years ago, being a National league side last year and not being able to afford a Stats Manager or a Black Box.  Must be the cup successes……..

    All too believable.

    That’s not right. Our season is over. 
  • this was a question on The Chase today. 

    If you score in your own goal from a direct free kick, it is a corner to the opposition and not a goal

    I believe it’s any kick that’s restarting play so if you put it in your own net from kick off or if you can punt a corner all the way back and it went in it would also be a corner

    That's not a question, that's a statement.

    Didn’t see the game, but out of interest, did Swansea’s cross lead to their goal?
