Just seen Barnsley vs Bristol Rovers highlights, damn is Grifiths in fine form! Plus he set up a goal from a long kick that didn't go out of play like Palmer's always seem too

Josh Griffiths didn't do himself any favours in this 0-4 defeat at home to Wigan!! Very Buttonesque

Yes the free kick for the 4th reminded me of the blues game. Griffiths at fault for the 3rd too.
I'm sure it'll just be a blip for him.

I prefer to call it a learning curve.??

Wrexham’s squad is 90% journey men, they’ve been flying on momentum and team spirit IMO (which goes to show how far that can get you) rather than a great league one team. They are getting schooled by blues.

Blues should urine the league but I don’t see Wrexham getting promoted unless they make moves in January

They've also been handed a fresh transfer embargo apparently. News courtesy of the BBC.

Blackpool have announced Steve Bruce won't be in charge for tomorrows game due to the passing of his 4 month old grandson. Terrible news. RIP

I only just saw this. That is horrible. Whatever anyone thinks of the man's professional capability, your heart goes out to him and all his family. So sad!

Sincerely feel for him
That is terrible loss…
A Milwall player has lost his 4 year old son too
Seems like it’s all bad news lately.

Gareth 'if only I were a bar of chocolate.........' Ainsworth has been appointed manager at League One Shrewsbury Town. His first league game in charge is a home fixture against our big spending nearish neighbours Birmingham City.

Louie Barry has hit 10 goals in 16 games so far this season in League 1. 21 now but finally getting there.

Barry now top scorer in League 1 after a double yesterday

Fair play Gareth Ainsworth. Didn't see a 3-2 home victory coming. Mind you at 20% possession you probably didn't either

Big game on currently at the top of the League Two Port Vale managed by Big Dave take on our near but quiet neighbours Walsall. If Vale win they go clear by 3 points, if Walsall win they go above Vale, Playing for Vale are two ex Albion players in Rico Richards and Rekheem Harper who nearly scored but sent it wide, the Sadlers seem to be growing into the game now still 0-0

BaggieBoy04 · « **Reply #743 on:** December 07, 2024, 01:41:18 PM »

Walsall 1 up Jamile Matt from a corner Walsall currently top

gazberg · « **Reply #744 on:** December 29, 2024, 05:26:26 PM »

Walsall 12 pts clear of 2nd at the halfway point (pretty much) that's real good going for them. Fair play!

According to BBC it was 24 393. Pretty sure the capacity is less than 30k.

gazberg · « **Reply #747 on:** February 04, 2025, 12:46:17 PM »

St Andrews capacity is 29k I think

That's nothing. I saw one of our attendances listed online as 125,000 a few weeks ago.

I kid you not.

We'm massive!!

alex1 · « **Reply #749 on:** February 04, 2025, 01:06:02 PM »

The Hawthorns has a great atmosphere, but even so its a bit sad when it has the smallest capacity in the Midlands. Not counting Walsall, Port Vale etc.
