Well I can’t say that I’m a fan of sober football. That’s three pints or less before you ask. But sober football is really depressing, Especially when you factor in a 2-0 defeat at the hands of a team a whole division below us. But at least we can still say that it’s only pre-season […]

Garden of England
The times, they are a changing my friends. I mean, take the last few months for example, where there’s been enough carry on to completely confuse and befuddle even the most clear minded of grown adults. First we lose our manager of 11 years, followed by most of our squad. Then the government try to […]
It’s An Epilogue
They say that a week in football is a long time. Well if that’s the case, then eleven weeks without any kind of football to watch feels like a bloody lifetime. Because it’s been nearly three months since we last saw a Sutton side round off a very drab final third of the season with […]
Robin Friday – The Greatest Footballer You Never Saw
Many footballing superstars have graced the pitch at Sutton United down the years – far too many to mention here – but there’s one player who stepped out of the GGL tunnel as a kid back in May 1972 who really should have gone on to become a household name. A lad by the name […]

¿Dónde está Debbie de Bolton? – Football Abroad
So our lil’ jaunt on the Spanish Main continues to roll on. The moving of our planned match of Chairman Totts much beloved Hercules from Sunday to Saturday at such a short notice had scuppered our original plan.

Cuidado con ese árbol! – Football Abroad
A tough, grinding season’s finally over, the manager has fucked off and so far so has about half of last year’s squad. So you’d think now would be a good time to go and rediscover real life, start clocking up the brownie points with the other halves and generally forget all about the beautiful game […]

2018/2019 Season Review – Part 2
Welcome to Part Two of our annual Season Review! We’re guessing the first bit was alright if you’ve come back for another helping. Still, s’pose you need something else to follow devotedly now that Game of Thrones thing is pretty much done and dusted eh? So, in Part One we made a decent start, got […]
2018/2019 Season Review – Part 1
Following last year’s latest record breaking campaign and somewhat comfortably negotiating that ‘tough second season’ thing you always read about, we had to wonder what was coming next in 2018/19. Would we be even better? Would we suddenly find ourselves, absurdly, a Football League club come May? Or would it all be a proper fucking […]
Where’s the Pie?
So that’s it once again for another season of football for our dear old Sutton United. This has been another one of those campaigns where we’ve had some great highs and yet again, some shit lows that come with our adventures. And of course, it ends on a limp whimper. But now it’s time to […]
