With the state of the weather lately, my house basically smells like a damp carpet. No matter how much I towel them off after a walk, they’re still shivering or dripping on the rug for hours. Does anyone actually use those drying robes or specialized mitts? I’m tired of using five bath towels every time it drizzles. Any tips?
This season’s doing my head in. We’re on 101 points with three games to go, and Rochdale are still right behind us. Tomorrow at Tamworth feels huge, win that and hope they slip up, and we’re nearly there. But if it goes down to the last day at the Crown Oil Arena… I don’t think my nerves can take it 😂 Has the National League ever been this mad? Two teams pushing 100+ points is unreal.
Finally some big news for Sunderland. Bay Collective (the owners of Bay FC in the US) have just agreed to buy a majority stake in the club. They’re planning serious investment into the Academy of Light and matchday ops to try and get the team back to the WSL. It’s great to see a group that actually knows women’s football taking over rather than it just being a side project. Do we think this is the boost they need to finally close the gap at the top of the Championship?
Planning to see A Midsummer Night’s Dream at the Globe. I usually go for the £5/£10 standing tickets, but not sure I can deal with that for the whole show this time 😅 s the Lower Gallery actually worth the extra money, or do the pillars ruin the view a bit?
After that Easter weekend it really feels like things have shifted a bit. York picking up that late winner feels like proper momentum, while Rochdale dropping into 2nd has made it really tight with only a few games left. Do people think York will hold their nerve against Tamworth, or could Rochdale still turn it around? Feels like it might go down to the final day.
Feels strange that it’s coming to an end after so long. I remember seeing it when it first opened and it didn’t feel like it would end anytime soon. Is anyone going to the final show this Sunday? Wondering if they’ll do anything special for the last performance.
Just seen the semi-final results, AFC Stoneham and Cockfosters are heading to Wembley for the FA Vase final on May 17. Such a great achievement when you think how many teams start out in this competition, especially for a club like Stoneham getting there for the first time. Anyone thinking of going down for it? Should be a great day for non-league football.
