Re: Cheltenham Town v Accrington Stanley

Amazing save by Evan’s at the death there but what the absolute f#!$ hell is our defence doing giving up a free header in the 96th minute when we’ve got 10 men back, yikes Stubbs was marking Rawson but did a poor job. He was brushed aside allowing Rawson a free header. Luckily Evans did a great sav...

Re: IFollow audio pass for Chesterfield?

Why should I need to use a VPN for an AUDIO pass? AFAIK the audio pass on iPlayer has never been geo-fenced, and was freely available from the UK (unlike the video passes). And I purchased an audio pass okay the previous week (when the audio feed from BBC Glos finally got connected 11 minutes late)...

Re: Success and Failure

When a new team is put together, the first criteria is to ensure that you are defensively sound. So far you could say that is close to being achieved with the games lost have only been by one goal. The next criteria is to control the game for most of the time. This seems to be getting better with lo...

Re: IFollow audio vs Salford

It has definitely changed this season. Last season it was just the Radio Glos broadcast that you heard, their commentary and their crowd noise mike. It now appears to be two different streams that are being broadcast simultanously and somebody somewhere has to get the balance right. With all the cu...

They can, but it’s the fault of the criminals (including the player) not the bookies. Do away with the temptation, the problem is solved. So close all shops to avoid the temptation of shop lifting?

Re: Match Fixing in the Conference - Great podcast

Not sure you can blame the bookies. It’s only because of their investigations and analytics that match fixing gets caught. Having bets on people being booked, time of first yellow card, first throw in, time of first corner can all be manipulated easily by one player. They can, but it’s the fault of...

He gets the year we played Man City wrong. De Bruyne played as well apparently (he didn't). Apparently 3-5-2 was entirely his idea, Duff only wanted to stick to 4-4-2.
