    Some thoughts after yesterday’s game

    Championship is a brutal league. Literally anyone can beat anyone on any given day, and games are (more often than not) decided on slim margins. When you open up the opposition - you HAVE to make the most of the opportunity, and you HAVE to take your chances. Not wanting to "pile on" but feck me...

    Glamorgan Cricket 2026

    Tribe looks a generational talent in the making - however, to survive in Div 1 you need to take 20 wickets in every 4 day game. Any one got any ideas which bowlers are going to make this happen?

    Trumper

    Totally misunderstanding who pays tariffs my friend. Tariffs are imposed on the company importing the goods that are likely (but not always) passed on to the consumer. It is idiotic that Trump is raising prices for his own population through tariffs - why on earth would the UK and Europe do the...

    Filip Lissah

    Check out the assist from Lissah - at about the 2 min mark - wow! Also reports are that Wilson made a big difference when introduced for the second half. Lissah looks nailed on for the RB role next season based on the evidence of my eyes. Extend his contract before he comes back!

    The January 2026 Transfer Window Thread - Now Closed!

    When I was home about a decade ago - I was walking down Langland - and who walks alongside me in a track suit is Federico Fernandez. I clocked him straight away and had a long chat with him as we walked over the cliffs toward Caswell - lovely guy. Anyway - he is a well travelled pro - and in his...

    It was nice to see our right winger breaking forward and putting a quality cross on a plate for Vipotnik to score. I have been waiting 18 months to see Ronald do that - Oh wait :cool:

    Summer Window - Who Goes and Who Stays?

    For all those who have been berating Fulton as letting us down and even "stealing a living"..here is a thought Maybe it is the club that has let Jay down and not vice versa. What talent he has (unfortunately) was coached out of him by successive managers. Some of his passing yesterday was very...

    Filip Lissah

    The smart management approach here would be to sit down with him and his agent and lay the following out. We want to immediately extend your contract You will continue your education at Falkirk for the rest of the season Nexct season you will be integrated into our first team squad - and will...

    The January 2026 Transfer Window Thread - Now Closed!

    I wonder if (an I honestly dont know) are the same people who watched Guehi for 10 games and said he would never amount to much, and the called Gyokores "the Swedish meatball". Good job Vipotnik doesn't read these posts as well - he had dogs abuse for ages.

    Funny but not funny (if you know what I mean) Fisher has the least presence of any goalkeeper I have ever seen- to the point where a corner can drop on the goal line and he neither puts his hands up or jumps to attempt to stop it going into the net. We know what he is- but he is branded as being...

    Joel Ward

    When we turned the ball over and got hit on the counter -our RB was exactly where you would expect/hope your RB would be - upgrade for that reason alone!

    Josh Key

    I got warm and fuzzies with Josh when he received that nasty cut to his foot and was desperate to play on. That shows character. Yes his positional sense is terrible but so was (and maybe still is) Tymon - but Tymon showed that you can improve this element of your game with hard work - and...

    The January 2026 Transfer Window Thread - Now Closed!

    One thing that has been obvious to me - and we can debate the subjective merits of individual players - is that Matos and his coaching tem seem to be improving individual players, and we are squeezing more quality out of players who have been terrible under previous regimes. 1. Fulton (I would...

    The Ashes 2025/26

    The only preparation were one day games in New Zealand. These were taken that seriously that the captain was exchanging slaps with a bouncer in the middle of the night on the day before one of these games. You can argue all you like that. This team is well led and has a winning culture. The...

    Trumper

    I live right across the river from Detroit and get the daily diet of US media served up. For thise that have not travelled extensively in the United States, you would be shocked at the general level of education. Coupled with this as a culture that portrays America has the centre of the...

    Joel Ward

    I agree with Andrew that signing a creative player looks a higher priority..BUT I am guessing they think they have that creative player - but he has been stuck filling the right back berth through lack of a decent RB. If we can solidify the RB position - maybe this will add to the team as a...

    What are we really expecting from Matos....

    I find the comparison with shovelling all your chips onto red and spinning the wheel as a comparison with appointing a new manager a little bit bizarre. Even with a short track record - you can see the characteristics of a person, the philosophy of a person, their qualities as a leader, their...

    What are we really expecting from Matos....

    If we had a cutting edge up front we would be playoff contenders. We are defensively decent by all metrics (dont fall for recency bias and quote the Milwall game) We are also getting our wide men into excellent positions to create chances. However, this is where the wheels fall off. On both...
