So our first home game on a Tuesday night since Gandermonium was risen from the ashes and it had to be my turn! Lucky then, that it’s the first match in what some (me) call “the greatest show on Earth” and a cup that has remained important to me since the days after the last […]
6 large ones, Cervezas & Back to the Future 2
So it’s Sunday morning, cup of tea in hand, time to write up the FA Trophy VS Oxford City Blog. So me and Duke had previous discussions in the week as to whether this game would be called off due to the typical British climate this time of the year. However the game was on, […]

When Scotty went up – One from the archives
With tonight’s opening salvo in the County Cup once more postponed, thanks to a wintry drop in temperatures this time, we here at Gandermonium are once more left without content to entertain you, our dear readers with. So, having consoled a distraught Dukey with a keg of cider and persuaded him to put away his […]
Have You Let Jesus Into Your Life?
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 […]
