Last game the Goldstone, we lost to Sudbury Town on penalties in the FA Cup first-round replay.
I can't find a match report anywhere.
I'm sure their keeper scored the winner in the shoot-out and a postman scored their goal in normal time?
I'm not just saying this a knee-jerk reaction to him getting a train home, but I genuinely believe he is the greatest player in our club's history.
Consistency, versatility, assists and goals, at the highest level we've ever been at. For over six years. Incredible.
And, the Gross turn.
I love...
I resigned from the Labour Party after Starmer eulogised Thatcher. That's unforgiveable.
I'm proud to be working class and a socialist. If you believe Corbyn is anti-semitic then you're a victim of the right-wing press' smear campaign.
The establishment were shit scared of him and did...
Yep. Palace is utterly shite. Completey over it now.
First time was for the five penalties game as a 15-year-old with a mate. Absolutely loved it.

The venue know how many tickets they sold. They were letting people pay on the door and therefore should have counted the entrants, leaving space for the ticket holders.
They took the piss, simple as...
Bollocks.
I've watched the Albion for over 40 years, including many trips to the Den, Selhurst etc, and Thursday night was shite and avoidable.
It's the not the club's fault, in any way, but it was a total shambles.
Someone fainted, someone had a fit, and there was zero communication, water...
I've been a ST holder in WSU since day one, and back to 1991 in our other three homes.
Last time I went in the North was for a cup game against West Brom a few years ago.
This scroat eyes me up and down and leans in to his mate; "Look at these c*nts. Ain't seen them before."
He must have been...
