Hello. Us again. As we plunge deeper into the second half of the season, we realised that we were fast running out of the old long haul awaydays and figured that away to Oldham probably warranted some sort of mention on here. And like bollocks are we doing Gateshead away later this week, so yeah. […]
The good news is that Saturday’s game with Maidenhead gave me the opportunity to see Sutton in action for the first time this season. The International break meant there was no chance of my first love Fulham getting in the way, although recently they’ve been proving a very pleasant distraction. Past experience suggests this happy […]
In introducing this blog, I must admit to a degree of personal responsibility for Sutton’s current desperate plight. My last contribution coincided with the high-water mark of the season when a surprise 5-1 victory against Notts County on the season’s opening day sent U’s top of the nascent League Two table. Since then, I’ve brought […]
For reasons that I neither understand nor want to, I offered to blog Sutton’s trip to that footballing, perhaps even, societal, outpost, Barrow(-in-Furness). I compiled one a few seasons back and got criticised for my description of Barrow by one of its proud residents for doing so. Having walked around the centre last season, I […]
Welcome back to a brand new football season which remarkably is Sutton United’s third as a Football League club. It’s still hard to believe even now that they’ve reached such an exalted status and I don’t think they got the credit they deserved for their promotion from the National League in 2020. Perhaps the ballyhoo […]
As a result of our scheduled opponents from the Humber managing to get through to the FA Cup sixth Round and our home league match being brought forward four days to accommodate them visiting the Sussex Coast we were without a match. Stay at home and do those chores that have been put off for […]
I’d been planning for some time to get my rhubarb in this weekend. You don’t want to rush these things or you can end up forcing it and it can wind up a bit flaccid and disappointing . But a combination of the cold snap, my football clubs 125th birthday and some business to take […]
You can tell who the glory hunters are. A bit of a dip in from and the usual Gandermonium scribe disappears to leave yours truly lumbered with another head scratching session, ie. where do I go with this? Then of course, Kebab Belly Bob is a no show too. Some family bollocks to attend – […]
Once more into the breach for the drunks that populate Gandermonium. Apparently, life was an obstacle for the blog’s resident author for the Tuesday trip to Northampton; what the fuck is life when the U’s are playing? Actually, what is it full stop? Is it what you make of it or a Minestrone? The county […]
Amazing what a local derby can do to football teams and people connected to them, isn’t it? For Sutton, the win at Plough Lane ended a run of 5 consecutive defeats in all competitions and – for the time being, at least – consigned concerns of a ludicrous number of injuries causing a genuine relegation […]
