I thought Mary Shelley was the mother of Science Fiction.

She published Frankenstein in 1818 - 48 years before H. G. Wells was even born...

The average time for the ball to be in play, in the Premier League last season, was 55 minutes and 3 seconds: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/61342349#:~:text=In%20this%20season's%20Premier%20League,see%20how%20each%20team%20performs. So the Borehamwood thing is obviously a lot lower than that....

That's not fair.

Nicky conceded 9 goals against Peterborough!

Time to reward players where reward is due. You play for 90 mins you get rewarded. You assist a goal you get rewarded. You score a goal, you get rewarded. I've never been too sure about such individualistic bonuses. Football is a team game - players should be rewarded as a team. So yeah, have goal ...

The move to The Hive, unless I'm imagining things, was supposed to be for a maximum of 10 years, after which time TK promised we'd go back to Barnet. I think that 10th year will be 2023/24, so it's not too far off, and it's not too unreasonable to ask the question on here. More to the point, I think...

There has also been talk of a parallel, "European Super Non-League", which is more relevant to Barnet: https://www.thedailymash.co.uk/sport/sport-headlines/halifax-town-torquay-united-and-stockport-county-join-european-super-non-league-20210419207270?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebo...

I was expecting the Jeff Buckley song...

ELECTION FRAUD!

Saw him at Harpenden Public Halls last year. Really shocked how his health has declined over past couple of years. A real shadow of his former self and carried by his backing band. That’s distressing to hear. He is nearly 80 though. I’ve seen him at one of his Jazz Cafe Christmas shows too and by a...

So sad.

I wasn't really a Barnet fan before the Ray Clemence era. His management and his team won me over to the cause (among other factors of course).

RIP Ray.

It seems to be lots of the big teams that have trained there. It would be interesting to see what proportion of the top-20 ranked teams have trained at The Hive.

Does anyone have a link that works abroad please?

I can't believe the lack of excitement on here. This is a guy won three league championship in three consecutive seasons, in his last job as number 1. Can anyone else name another manager who has won three league championships in a row, in England? Sir Alex perhaps. Anyone else? He's a member of a p...
