When things aren’t going quite the way you’d hope on the pitch, it seems to serve as a magnet for all sorts of other misfortune and daft incidents to rear their ugly heads and plague you, the poor unsuspecting punter’s already fragile mental state. And we at Gander Green Lane are no different. Take last […]

Euston, we have a Problem
So, Euston train station, we did have a problem didn’t we. A rather big problem when you think about it. As blog titles go, it’s a bit obvious, but otherwise it might have been something random like “It’s a Skip!”. But more on that one later. It was Sod’s Law that it was another North […]
Kipper Tie
My oh my, what about this weather we’re having eh? Winter’s definitely here you know, even I’ve almost followed Totts lead and switched on the old central heating. Eh? What’s that? You think I’m just making small talk to avoid mentioning the current footballing situation in the People’s Republic? Well check out the brains on […]
Do Anything You Wanna Do
Now that autumn is rolling in, the leaves are falling from the trees and me and Mrs Totts are engaged in our annual “Battle of the Boiler” as to when it’s appropriate to turn the heating on it seems only right that we should be entertaining a solid, meat, spuds, sticky pudding and woolly jumpers […]
Physical Abuse With Your Mouth
It was so quiet. So silent in fact that you could hear a gnat fart from ten paces. There is no one else around as I walk to the station in the total darkness that is par for the course for these early morning jaunts this time of year. Luckily the skies are clear. Fast […]
Digger Dagger Digger!
Five minutes from half-time, that’s all that was left. Five lousy minutes. With the match poised precariously at nil-nil, it was only five minutes to go before the boys could head down the tunnel on the back of another half decent performance. And yet once again, a couple of questionable decisions later and it’s like […]
You On Denton Watch?
Hola Senors y Senoritas, bringing a bit of Spanish to you as I missed the last two games whilst being in Mallorca. But this blogger can safely state Mallorca is now well informed about Sutton United and even had some people say I shall will be looking out for our results. One gentleman, named Mike […]
Wrexham Lager
We like Wrexham. Ok, it’s not nearby, costs a fair bit to get to and we’ve yet to experience anything but mild disappointment at best when it comes to the football, but it has one thing going for it. The beer’s really really cheap. Like stupidly cheap. As in “Fuck me I’ve not paid that […]
Tied Up In Notts
So, here we go again me old chinchillas. It really is non-stop, solid gold, easy action in this opening few weeks of the season and we’ve already managed to find ourselves in a full blown injury crisis that makes the Brexit hoo-hah look like a quiet evening in with a Pickwick snide seventies Top of […]
Right in the Brian Glovers
I have a little question. What is the point of the linesman these days? If they’re supposed to do only throw-ins and offside, then why can’t they even do those simple tasks? I doubt it’s just this year, but they’ve seemed to come to prominence recently with some very suspect decisions. Some of the offside […]
