I went along to the recent fans’ forum, which was well attended. There were lots of valid questions asked and frustrations aired, with most if not all of those present being Red Devils fans who have the interests of the club at heart even if they disagree with...
And so the Hollywood media circus comes to town again, weather permitting, of course (it was lashing down earlier in the week when I was writing this). Another big attendance, I am sure – a far cry from the 737 dedicated souls (just over 100 from Wrexham) who came to...
My suggestion in my previous piece, written for the Charlton match, that I may be wasting my time due to a possible postponement proved to be sadly right, despite getting as far as taking my seat in the East Stand along with many others, and watching the players...
In my previous piece for the Birmingham game I wrote of crazy Christmas scores, fixture congestion and some punishing trips for our part-time and small squad, which was often no more than a core of fifteen at times in the 1960s. And in some ways this Christmas has...
Hopefully the blues will be for our visitors and not ourselves this week, but we know it will be an incredibly difficult task, especially if we give away goals as we did at Peterborough last week. That 4-3 defeat brought back to me memories of the last time we played...
A bit of a mixed bag for this issue as I am away all next week prior to the Lincoln FA Cup match and would not have time to prepare a separate article for that game. While flicking through some cuttings to answer a query from Ivan Noel about our history with Mansfield...
As is likely to often be the case this season, our past history against several of our opponents will be a bit thin, so please allow me a bit of artistic license with Huddersfield and let’s travel to Guiseley in West Yorkshire, just over 20 miles away. As we are still...
You will have to excuse the slightly cynical, confrontational tone at the start of this article but I have just watched us outplay Reading for large parts of the game only for our poor finishing at times, their inspired defending and our poor defending to consign us...
My one abiding memory of playing Shrewsbury took place on 27th February 2012, a rare Monday night game for us, when I watched the away match live on TV in Redz bar. We had already beaten them at home 2-1 (Sergio Torres and Dean Howell) on 15th October 2011, a win...
Looking back to our first meeting with Bolton (The Trotters) takes us back to a Carabao Cup second round tie on 28th August 2012, our first season in League One. Bolton had just been relegated from the Premier League and were looking for an immediate return. Our...
