Back On The Rocky Road To The Top
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att : 536 SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Gray p14] BOGNOR REGIS TOWN – 0 Having got the expected first defeat out of the way, albeit in slightly disappointing circumstances, the U’s get back to the business of pissing this tinpot league with the visit of old friends Bognor. Still managed by Jack Pearce, […]
Bloody Seagulls
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att : 562 SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Pitcher 89] WESTON SUPER MARE – 2 [Hogg 21. 24] Bloody early kick offs. What twat at the FA decided it was a good idea for internationals to be played at 3pm on a Saturday anyway? That’s it, fuck over all the teams NOT […]
Magpie Murder
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att : 543 DORCHESTER TOWN – 0 SUTTON UNITED – 5 [Douglas 45. Mackie 71. Akuamouah 77. Gray p79.82] Game number five of the season and at last we get a decent day out! Sadly, unlike last year, some idiot decided Dorchester should be on a bank holiday Monday thus ruining a […]
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 […]
Anyone Seen Alice?
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att : 245 YEADING – 0 SUTTON UNITED – 2 [OG 18. Cornwall 90] Sadly, our tenure as Conference South league leaders lasted precisely 24 hours, with Lewes winning 3-0, ironically here at Yeading, along with Cambridge City’s victory meant we slipped to third. Bloody disgraceful!! RAINS OUT! Still, it was a […]
We’re ‘Avin’ a Laugh!
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att : 475 HAVANT & WATERLOOVILLE – 0 SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Cornwall 79] Right, whose daft idea was it to have the first away game of the season on a Monday? Bloody rubbish! Still, it all worked out in the end. With a booze & nosh up at Chez Millsy on […]
Lukey Ol’ Sutton!
CONFERENCE SOUTH Att : 510 SUTTON UNITED – 4 [Cornwall 7.8.18. Quinton 81] MAIDENHEAD UNITED – 1 [Hughes 75] Right, so this is it then? As the years have passed, my excitement in waiting for the football to actually start hasn’t diminished much, but what has diminished is my interest in pre-season matches. […]
Saving Ourselves Perhaps?
PRE-SEASON FRIENDLY Att : N/A LEATHERHEAD – 3 [Stevens 26.40. Charles-Smith 89] SUTTON UNITED – 1 [Gray p90] As final warm ups go, this certainly won’t be getting an entry into any forthcoming instructional books or videos entitled “How to make sure you’re properly prepared & raring to go for that first league […]
Casually Does It
PRE SEASON FRIENDLY Att : N/A CORINTHIAN CASUALS – 0 SUTTON UNITED – 5 [OG 14. Cornwell 23. Tomlin 26.38. Douglas 37] With the cancellation of two early friendlies, I guess it’s not surprising JR went looking for other opponents to help boost our pre-season programme. Fortunately, our old friends and fellow users of […]
