auntie doris 1,656 Posted January 23 (edited) Bad day for my 5 teams..Arsenal out of cup, Swindon nicked a point at Charlton, Millwall lost, Dulwich and Casuals not in action. Cirencester Town top of league but season may be curtailed. Well played Cheltenham. Edited January 23 by auntie doris Share this post Link to post

Sunderland could go up Bloody great effort from the Robins of Gloucestershire 1-0 up with 10 minutes left against City. Pity no fans there. Ben Tozer had a superb game, with Alfie May, could be snapped up by a club from a higher division. Tozer had couple of games for The Wiltshire Robins at the start of his career. Local rivals Chelts are Swindon's bogey team, never won there. Edited January 24 by auntie doris Share this post Link to post

Newcastle may very well be rotten at the minute but surely we are still way above the level of Sunderland. Newcastle`s march to relegation under Bruce shows no signs of slowing up. I know stats aren't always everything but some of them that are stacking up against Newcastle are very telling. No wins in 10 in all competitions, 8 in the PL taking just 2pts from a possible 24, its now 398 minutes since Newcastle scored a goal in any competition and they have managed just 1 goal from open play in the 776 minutes. No matter how you dress it up those kind of numbers spell only one thing. 1 Share this post Link to post

Assistant Manager Graham Jones is the guy, he is currently at Bournemouth. I was hoping it was the former Berwick rider but it appears not, though he would've been just as good probably.

Personally I think sacked managers should have to prove themselves in a lower division before they get another Premier League appointment. And they can’t move up a league until they get a side promoted. Share this post Link to post
