The sun has a fun stat (not for wimbledon fans) Afc wimbledon have lost 8 of the last 10 games ,scoring only 2 goals 🙄🫣

And will nightingale

Yep - a third clean sheet for Spike yesterday, and has only conceded one league goal in four games. At this rate, we will be playing against Spike and Sutton again next season….

Of course most of my Sutton acquaintances are out on the piss in Newcastle.

DAZN decided to put all National League fixtures on this evening despite most viewers tuning in to Palace v City or Wrexham v Birmingham. Only two matches in that league under 100 miles for the travelling support.

Spit - all playing BH Monday 3pm!

The A23 derby, I was in the Brighton end ,(that crappy corner of homesdale terrace)at selhurst back in mid 80s with Brighton friend, that's when I found out they hate each other

Didn't Alan Mullery have something to do with the Palace/ Brighton malarkey?

Is that palace kit a throwback to the Malcom Allison and venables era which iirc kicked of the Palace Brighton feud?. Stupid rivalry if ever there was one.

a4e - there was a Dons supporter attending the event you mentioned earlier today called Big Church. Sadly there was a fatality and the event has now been cancelled. The supporter is very shaken up, and hopefully will see him on Monday.

4 wins in a row and top.of the league for sutton united ,but as carshalton said a couple of weeks ago only played rubbish teams:-)

Jersey bulls got a kit like that palace shirt ziggy stardust away shirt

Another nice thing about them, OI, is the fairytale factor of both clubs. From nearly going out of business to being run well by owners who seem good.

One nice thing about Wrexham and Birmingham is one team with a relatively unadorned red shirt and white shorts playing a team with a relatively unadorned blue shirt and white shorts, no sign of grey and green zigzags or pink lilies

I don’t mind that Palace kit.

Didn’t Buckley say we would be hearing something about the investment this week. Did I miss the update ?

Is that a Palace "Team of the Eighties" homage?

I’ve seen a twitter report that says we are signing striker Donnel McNeilly from Nottingham forest on a season long loan. So reports of Dane Scarlett appear to be wide of the mark. Apparently played ten games on loan at Wycombe without scoring so he’s prolific what could possibly go wrong ?

That diagonal Palace shirt is a bit of a throwback I think.

Haaland scores, surprised he is playing given the death of Norwegian king Harard earlier today

Newcastle’s is worse

New 9yrspodcast up now! Playing on a Thursday messes up podcast schedules, but Stu and I managed to arrange our lives around the League Cup defeat at Fulham to give our reaction to the events of the evening, which included the return of Junior Nkeng to the first-team squad – and the implications of that – and thoughts (and some irritation) about fans’ reactions to the defeat on and off the pitch. Alongside that is talk of the arrival of Harry Cornick, the midweek absences of Marcus Browne and Ryan Johnson, and the ongoing plight of Aron Sasu, as well as thoughts on how we approached the game with Reading. Transfer window thoughts, upcoming games with Wigan and Burton, reactions to changes in the fanzone at Plough Lane, and The 50.1% Club round-off another fun show!

The Palace strip is nasty

Timmy - I wouldn't have put that out when I was running my son's youth team. It's possibly not just proofing - that sort of basic mistake should never have been made in the first place. Given our budgets it may well be monkeys for peanuts. If not, and it's someone young and starting out that's fine but they need someone mature nurturing them. Either way to put that out makes us look totally unprofessional.

It’s a sign I tell you… [Link]
