South by Southend

It’s ruddy nice to go to someone else’s place and mess up the furniture, especially when Ronnie Moore is involved. And that’s what we got with our Valentine’s Day delight up at Hartlepool United. It was probably appropriate – or maybe not – that 14 February was the day we …

Carry On Physio – the definitive-ish Hartlepool preview

Have you been injured in an accident at work that wasn’t your fault? It won’t surprise us if Graham Westley has spent the whole week on the blower to Ambulance Chasers 4U making some claims on behalf of them guys who have transformed Paul Dando’s physio room from an oasis of tranquility (probably) into the most …

Shakers: Prattle And Roll

From six games unbeaten to three defeats on the spin – well, that escalated quickly… didn’t it? It looks like having a small squad has given us a few headaches, what with 137 players now on Paul Dando’s treatment table. Yep, we’re now just two knocks away from replacing the …

The Exe Factor

Christmas – it’s a time for giving, so they say. We don’t know who they actually are, but we just hope Boro’ have done all their giving for this festive period after handing Newport County an easy three points last weekend. It is unlikely to be remembered as the best …

Newport – League Two State Of Mind

Oh. What’s occurrin’…? So then. Newport – twinned with Guangxi Province in China, there’s no province finer. We can’t vouch for that specific part of south east Asia, but we can for that part of south east Wales that is so often overlooked by the folk at Lonely Planet and Rough …

Stevenage FC face tough test over Christmas

In recent seasons Stevenage have made massive progress through the football pyramid, establishing themselves as regulars in England’s football league. Having played 16 consecutive seasons in the Conference (1994-5 – 2009-10), lightning struck twice as the team won consecutive promotions to League 1; whence began a magnificent FA Cup run …
