why can`t there be replays in the FA cup up to the 3rd round as that is when the premier league clubs enter and its they who say they are playing too many games, so is this an idea from the league bosses to even everything up by making every team in every league play the same ammount of games?

So we can't have F A Cup replays but we can have this pointless ( for us) competition? What level of support have the U21s been getting in EFL Trophy when they've played EFL teams? Presumably it will be comparable when they play NL teams. I don't imagine much support from the NL supporters. Maybe s...

The top 16 clubs from this season ‘qualify’ (hooray! Go us!) for this competition. The big winners are the other 8 clubs and those in the National Leagues North and South, because they don’t have to play in this abomination of a competition but will get a share of the cash the Premier League is chuc...

Chris Plummer departs Scunthorpe - manager Jimmy Dean paid the price for missing out on promotion, and as his assistant Plummer’s on his way out too.

Meanwhile Tomi Adeloye has been released by Swindon

Both looked very tight games. Enfailed’s goal came from a long throw by ex-Bee Joe Payne. Finchley played well in the 1st half but fell away a bit in the 2nd. Massive crowds in both ties. Enfailed’s biggest ever and I’d never seen so many Finchley fans before! Joe Payne, was he the young lad that M...

Awful awful awful. Making National League teams training fodder for Premier League clubs’ kids. Embarrassing.

Like the fact we can name 7 subs, we should always have a GK on the bench! Now we can use 5, this could help ease the workload on players and help reduce injury risk. The festive fixture idea is good as well. It's quite intense playing the same side twice in a week, although we did ok with it this ...

We’ll surely go for another keeper in the Keeley mould, ie one who is very comfortable on the ball and out of his goal. Eg Aidan Stone (released by Notts C) or Harrison Male (turned down deal at Dorking). Or another loan from a big club, where a young keeper is being schooled to be more comfortable ...

Had his best season at Wealdstone under Dean. Definitely an option.

Umerah was at Wealdstone the season after Brennan left (not to say he would or wouldn’t be a good option).

Kabamba and Stead is a very good start for a forward line. The squad was much stronger once we got O’Donkor in and had another option/cover up front. At least one more striker needed, whether on loan or a permanent striker.

Adam Thompson released by Orient. On his way back? Great on his day but too injury prone Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yep, you might be right. I do think DB will be looking at bringing in one or two of his mould though - that is players who have been there and done it in terms of winning prom...

Big post-relegation clearout at Sutton. https://www.suttonunited.net/news/2024/april/sutton-united-announce-players-who-will-leave-the-club-at-the-end-of-the-season/ He’s 32 now but if Brennan is going to stick with the ‘box’ midfield, with two advanced centre mids, Harry Beautyman has always been ...

Talking of Notts County, I expect his wage expectations are far too high but I was seriously impressed with Bostock last season. I remember watching him and thinking ‘I wish we had someone like that, someone comfortable on the ball who always wants it and is always ready to receive it from the centr...
