Goals Galore: Mansfield vs. Harrogate

It’s not often you can talk about an eleven-goal thriller in football, but that’s exactly what happened in League Two this past Tuesday. In a quite simply absurd match, Mansfield somehow managed to take a incredible 9-2 victory over Harrogate – but look in to the story further and it becomes even more incredible. Yes, Mansfield are in the chase for the League Two title – with them winning and leaders Stockport losing, the gap at the top closed to just one point. Harrogate, however, are most certainly not in... Read More

All Together for a Sing-A-Long…

You’ll Never Walk Alone. I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles. Blue Moon… I could go on and on and on. Point is, it’s not a football match without the crowd making noise, and chants are an essential part of the atmosphere. Sometimes they can be for the love of a team (see Port Vale), the joy of a particular player (Wigan & Ireland, West Ham, Arsenal, AFC Wimbledon… the list could go on!), or even as abuse to the opposition or the greatest rival (see Burnley) – can you really say you’ve...

2016 Play-Off Finals – The Last Chance At Promotion

So this year’s season is wrapping up shortly – Leicester made the fairytale come true to win the Premier League, Burnley went straight back up with Middlesbrough returning after 7 years away, Wigan get back on the right path and head back to the Championship having only been in the top tier as recently as 2013 whereas Burton continue to surprise with automatic promotion in their first ever year in the third tier, and in League Two Northampton Town put financial worries aside to demolish the division, with Oxford United...

Promotion Race: Are Northampton about to go up?

You might remember back in October, we discussed League Two’s Northampton Town and their financial battle to fight administration. Despite everything they were going through, the performance on the pitch was still doing relatively OK. What a difference five months makes. Not only have the Cobblers got any financial worries put well in the past, but their performances have been nothing short of dominant – they haven’t lost a league game since December 19th, having gone their last seventeen games undefeated which included a string of ten consecutive wins –...

Record-Breaking Game? Premier League’s Top Two Clash!

When you read this, you didn’t expect us to say the Premier League leaders are Leicester, did you? We had an earlier blog talking about Leicester’s impressive run – but now nearly a third of the way through the season, the Foxes are still up there – in fact, above anyone else! They’ve only lost 2 of their last 22 league games (since April of last season), to Chelsea and Arsenal – consistency which sees them quite deservedly up there. Fittingly enough (for reasons we’ll explain shortly), they take on... Read More

Pleasure & Pain – The Battle of Northampton Town

Rare that you can ever say this about a team fighting for promotion, but it’s tough times for Northampton Town. They’re currently 4th in League Two, with only goal difference preventing them from sitting in 3rd – and thus, an automatic promotion spot, currently held by Oxford United. Having won 6 of their last 10 games with 2 draws, it’s a great run for a team that in recent years has been middle of the road, fighting relegation and fighting for promotion. So how on earth can there be an... Read More

The New League Season Is Almost Here!

It hardly feels like a few moments ago since Chelsea prized the Premiership title away from Manchester for the first time since 2010, and yet we’re now less than a week away from the new season kicking it all off again. As mentioned earlier, Chelsea are defending their Premier League Title against 19 more challengers – of which Bournemouth make their first ever appearance, plus the return of Watford and Norwich to the top tier will make this season, pretty much like every year, a nail-biter from top to bottom....
