Lime Tree Heros

As a fan living 200 miles away I was only ever able to get to 2 or 3 home games a season, which meant I never had enough TPP for away tickets either. But.... By utilising Mrs LTH's name and credit card, she is now on the ticketing database of numerous Southern based clubs, so I've no problem getting tix in the 'home' ends to follow the lads. Yes it's a different form of an awayday - but I still get to go to the game and follow the lads, but best of all DC doesn’t get a penny of my money.

Starting to get very tired of the hate being dished out fan on fan - is it some kind of uberfan d I c k waggling competition? If you're 'boycotting' instead of ranting at others buying a pint, why don't you double down yourself by boycotting more? i.e. don't go to home matches. And if you want to go away, buy in the home end.

Dronfield flag just been referred to on 5live - Mark Chapman had to be told it was near Sheffield - then understood why there was an owl on it.

Personally, I see this as 'good' news. Every missed payment DC makes, merely serves to demonstrate further how inept and broken his ownership of Wednesday is. Given the events of the last 3 months I suspect that the EFL are deeply regretting allowing us to start the season. I don't expect them to make a similar mistake next season. I think the EFL will be very clear to DC next summer, put £15m into this UK escrow account and Wednesday can start the season, fail to do that and they can't - and I'd expect the EFL to be making their future position very clear to DC now, so he's in no doubt that without funds next summer the club will be worthless. That's if he can stumble on for the remainder of the season.

This time last season I was watching a Tuesday night non-league match at a Step 4 club and got talking to a fellow spectator. He was a scout for Coventry, his job was to watch and report on every teenager playing first team men's football at Steps 1 to 4. Apparently Coventry employ 2 of them to cover the country, one in the North and one in the South. He was watching his third match of the day, having watched 2 Academy matches earlier. I've since seen him at a few Step 3 matches. Professional clubs do recruit teenagers quite heavily from non-league men's first teams - my own club has 'lost' a player that way in each of the last 3 close seasons.

But the fouls have still been committed in a match and deserve punishment. But it does seem odd that goals scored get scrubbed but cards don't - personally I'd allow the goals to count too (as well as the cards) so Blackburn would have a GD 1 better and Ipswich 1 worse. I watch a lot of non-league where there are far more abandonments than in the EFL. It seems to me that games are always replayed in full over 90 mins, unless both sides agree to letting the result stand (as happened earlier this season at Welling v Aveley when the floodlights failed in stoppage time).

So sad to see.

Yes to Alex Fletcher and it effectively ended his career. There should be serious questions asked of the FA ground graders and the club - a section of the same perimeter wall collapsed earlier this season after a couple of Dulwich Hamlet fans leant against it.

Whilst things are bad at SWFC at the moment at least we're not dealing with this: I watch a lot of non-league football and whilst I wasn't at this match it is the same league that I usually attend (Isthmian Premier - Tier 7 of the pyramid) and I have been to the ground. On Saturday the Wingate & Finchley v Chicester match was abandoned after a Chichester player collided with the surrounding (breeze block) wall. He suffered a significant brain injury and is now in an induced coma in hospital. Thoughts and prayers to him, his friends, family, team mates and all those present.

I'm now at a solid 3/10 1 - for the win at Pompey 1 - for the young academy lads in the first team 1 - for the impending 30th September

Wimbledon don't actually play in Wimbledon - the ground is in the London Borough of Merton - London's smallest Borough.

After the last General election. Bromley is the only football league club in a Conservative constituency. No politics...

Aside from the Cup Final losses / relegation- games which were already emotionally charged before kick off, my worst was: January 2011, the 0-4 away loss to Leyton Orient, what makes it the worst / most depressing for me was how mundane it was, on a dreary grey day we turned up in East London and got battered by Leyton chuffing Orient (I know, I know shouldn't be so entitled etc etc), but there was a huge feeling of 'normalcy' about it, as in, nothing remarkable has happened, Wednesday had fallen so low that getting battered by Leyton Orient felt normal and that really got to me. Only redeeming feature of the match came much, much later - I saw the first league goal of a certain H Kane.

Given the standard of spelling across the Internet, I fear you're fighting a 'loosing' battle... Totally agree with you by the way...

Surely for this to work effectively you need to have a guaranteed sell out on your hands to start with - that being the case, I can't see it working for the majority of British football. Personally, I think we're more likely to see a club get rid of season tickets and move to a seat subscription model first.
