Well there goes another dirty weekend in Dorset. The day started with me waking up around 0645 (so only a hour to get up and ready so I could get that train), it was still dark outside but I knew I had to meet the firm early doors. But only after my phone decided to give me the old gee […]
It’s Bloody Cold – One from the Archives
Having sneaked through to the next round of the FA Trophy on Tuesday with a hard fought 1-0 win at Maidenhead, I’ve been making the most of a day off trawling through the absolute mess that is the old Gandermonium archives to see exactly what we do and don’t have. Not as much as I’d […]
One of Our Magpies is Missing
Yeah, a 1-0 win will do us fine. Finally, at the third time of trying, we get to play at Maidenhead and for the first time in around 12 years we make it to the second round of the FA Trophy. Thus on a cold Tuesday night at the start of December we descended on […]
Please leave a message after the tone….
As you may have read, one of our esteemed contributors Dukey forced us to stick around in gorgeous Staines on saturday after the dopey sod left his mobile phone in the cab from the ground to the pub. Once aware of his little faux pas, he of course then used Juan’s phone to leave himself […]
In the Beginning God created the Duke
Well what a day that was! And next time I might remember to take some photos. What started with a hot cup of tea at Carshalton station at 10 o’clock in the morning, somehow ended at 2 o’clock the following morning in Tapuri discussing ecclesiastical matters with an Arsenal fan. How did I end up […]
Tom Cruise & a Mojito
So Staines away! Big thanks to THS for the lift down to today’s game. Seeing as the rest of the lads had caught the train and arrived into Staines in the morning whilst I was otherwise engaged returning some video tapes, I thought it best to have a quick pre-match drink on arrival before the […]
Cones, Beer, Trollies & Crap Football – One from the archives
Well, this is fun. We start the site up just in time for some typically seasonal weather to leave us sat twiddling our thumbs without any football to talk cack about. The pitch inspection at Maidenhead this evening……probably. So, there’s nothing else for it. I’ll have to break out one of the myriad of old […]

The start of something…
Since yesterdays FA Trophy game was cancelled at Maidenhead. I thought it was about time to start the first of many Blogs to come (Thanks to Taz for setting this up). Gandermonium is now the phoenix from the flames! Due to yesterdays game being cancelled, I thought I would bore you all with a little […]
We’re back. And it’s not got any better….
Perfect. Just perfect. We go to all the effort of putting this shit back online and the first game since we went live is fucking postponed. It’s like we’ve never been away! Proof we’re idiots… Naturally, the postponement was made about an hour after we’d arrived in town and were into our second pint in […]
Private Ceremony, No Flowers
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att: 471 SUTTON UNITED – 0 CAMBRIDGE CITY – 3 [Sheringham 20. Neilson 37. 67] Thank fuck that’s over. A more painful season I could not have imagined, where our form barely raised above the level of ‘fucking diabolical’ and we’ve gone down with the sort of points total that would quite […]
