So, no early Christmas presents for us at the weekend then. And we thought we had been extra good this year too. Not once have we used the word feck or beggar. Much, anyway. A 3-1 reverse at home to Mansfield means we couldn’t see ourselves soar into the festive …
Cor! If Christmas is a time of year that’s ablaze with the roaring fire of festive cheer, hasn’t our Lewis Hamilton done his bit to douse the flames? If anyone caught the parlour folly that is BBC Mainstream Sports Personality Of The Year, our famed Billy Whizz made a silly …
It was a bit of an uncomfortable one last week; Lincoln doing a job on us in much the same way we did to sides when we won promotion in 2011. It was all very well when it was us, but not so much now when someone else is doing …
It’s been so long since we punted a football in anger that we’ve almost forgotten who turns out for us these days. Is that lovely Ray Houghton still in the middle? In truth, it’s not even been two weeks since we were on our festive rounds early; handing out gifts …
Lads, the Checkatrade Trophy may not be a competition we’re all that fussed about, but any record that shows played two, lost two, conceded 12 ain’t gonna look good on the end of term report. And we’re not back out of cup mode just yet, either; the FA Cup grabbing …
Yee. And then as custom goes, hah! Back from the wild, wild west hinterlands of Cheltenham, Boro’ return to the Lamex with a much-needed haul of three points and the feeling of a job well done. Y’know, the one after you’ve absolutely nailed the sorting of your sock drawer, the …
Two games indoors, two wins and six league points in the bank. That’s lovely Alan! STOP – hammertime, and in the name of love while we’re at it, though. That’s not how it all ended up working out. The plan for our double header with Crewe and then Port Vale was rock …
Our luck ain’t got much better since coming back from Wales. What should have been a regulation win on our return indoors all came apart in the time it takes us to squeeze ourselves onto the East Terrace after our last gasp power shandy has us scampering for the loo. …
In this devilish dystopian world of ours, our last two results have been brought to you by the number eight. It’s, as you darn well rootin’ tootin’ know, the whatever you want to call it in our humbling at the hands of Charlton. Athletic that is, not Heston. And it’s …
Call us crazy, but we’ve this strange feeling the Pools Panel may have to call this one. Storm Callum is rockin’ and a-rollin’ around the South Wales coast; bringing with it an Amber warning for rain that’s due to last until Saturday evening. And let’s face it – Dave Parade …
