Well hello there! Thank you for joining us on this rather miserable Sunday whilst I stick on my big boy trousers and once more rake over the coals of another less than inspiring Sutton United effort. Now, this is doubly annoying this time out as earlier this week I stumbled upon a fun, light hearted […]
Tag: Farnborough Town
Bad Irish Whiskey
Amazing the difference a couple of weeks makes. The last time I got to scribble stuff and bore you all to death, it was for the Merstham Surrey Cup game. Which if you were there or merely read my well balanced, quality reportage on it, you’d know didn’t quite go as planned. In the same […]
I Was There When Bignall Scored
Jack and Jill went up the Hill, To have some hanky-panky, silly Jill forgot her pill, And now there’s little Frankie. I’m here all week folks! A man once said “a week is a long time in football”, personally I think that a week is the same time in any walk of life but this […]
Bursting the Farneybubble
Farnborough. Say it quietly and keep it yourself but I’m going to tell you something. I fucking hate Farnborough.

Did you just ask for a Hooch?
Good evening boys and girls and welcome at another edition of Duke’s tired and emotional recollection of today’s trip, the penultimate away game of this season taking us across Hampshire and into the opulent surrounds of Farnborough. Many thanks for Juan for doing the SSC blog on Thursday and giving me the opportunity to just sit back […]
When the machine breaks down…we break down!
Well, well, well…… Where to start with this one! If I’m completely honest I’m finding it a big struggle to put fingers to the keyboard to type this one up! Mainly for two reasons, firstly the game yesterday. Wow it was BAD on a big scale! The other reason, I’ve got a bit of the […]
Another Take Off Aborted
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att : 540 FARNBOROUGH TOWN – 2 [Sestanovich 61. Charles 78] SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Douglas 59] It’s Saturday blah blah blah, league game, yadda yadda yadda, one win in 16, rhubarb rhubarb rhubarb, playing shit, blah blah blah……you know the drill. Right, that’s that out of the way. Still, today […]
Top of the League? AGAIN?
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att : 693 SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Mackie 29] FARNBOROUGH TOWN – 0 If you’d told me in early July that we’d win our first 4 games and be sitting atop the league twice inside that first month, I’d have pissed myself laughing and then demanded a several pints of whatever wonderfully […]
The Good, The Bad & The So So
RYMAN PREMIER DIVISION Att: 781 FARNBOROUGH TOWN – 2 [Piper 24.71] SUTTON – 1 [Boothe 24] Well, here we are. Another New Year with just loads of fun packed Ryman Premier action to keep us amused til May. I don’t think! We were saying before Crimbo that the fixtures in January would make or break […]
