25 minutes left and Wycombe have a one howl advantage. Total difference in styles but it's exciting, more so with the presence of Twine and KKH.

I dislike most things about MKD but the ground is pretty good.

Who will get the next howl. (Sorry about that)

Wolfenson, their Danish player.

So if Dean Lewington plays next season he could well break JTs record for most league games for one club.

Currently sat on 739 for MK (+ another 29 for Wimbledon)

Franchise out.

Get the Twine money!

885 total games. 4 behind John Trollope - who I’ve just learnt first name isn’t even John - it’s Norman (according to wiki)

This . . . . . Kerching!  :D

After all that noise about giving Wycombe only 2000 tickets and Franchise only had 11,000 home fans.

Tinpot😀

and lost. perfect

Ouch!

Franchise become first club to lose all 5 of their Play-Offs semi-finals - 2006/07, 2008/09, 2010/11, 2011/12 & 2021/22

Long may it continue. Or even better,they never reach another one

Two different clubs.

If he manages 32 games for Dongs next season he beats Trollope's record, no idea if he will but seems to have played pretty much every league game this season.

Surprised the media haven't picked up on this, albeit its 'only lg 1.

No shit, I haven’t claimed otherwise…

…but he’s still made 739 league appearances for Franchise which is still within a season of the John Trollope record for league appearances for one club.
I didn’t count his Wimbledon appearance in those 739. That’s an addition 29 league appearances on top of the 739 league appearances for Franchise.

Lewington is a fucking arsehole and as unlikeable as the club he plays for.

Glad they didn't qualify for Wembley although it would have been nice to see their 10k fanbase lose int he final. Still, twine can now leave for a better, bigger club in a higher like Rotherham :D.

Whatever you or anyone else thinks of Franchise or Dean Lewington personally.

886 career games and still going is some achievement…

Absolutely it is, could be loyalty or it could be that he wasnt good enough to make the step up at another club.

He will probably go on to be their manager at some point.

Hopefully with a similar effect as Trollope had as manager here.

Talking of the name Trollope where's his son these days as he used to follow Chris Hughton around.

As Hughton was last noted having some involvement with the Ghana national team perhaps there?

Good point  :sherlock:

Assessing referees #ITK

Dreadful crap in the Wendies v Sunderland game.

Rugged and a lot of hoof it up to the big man

Hoof it is right. Very low quality game. Presume neither team play like this on a regular basis.

I think we're at slight crossed purposes here.  I thought Trollope's record is for only ever playing for one club, so the most appearances for his one and only club, rather than just most appearances for one club, if that makes sense.  That was the only reason I mentioned the different club thing.

It might be the mists of time and all that but I quite enjoyed our long-ball game under Macari but I don't remember it being anything like this game tonight. Perhaps I'm getting sophisticated in my old age.

None of them, don’t give a shit about the others, there’s only one I’m interested in.

Think it’s both.
Obviously Lewington can only break the latter.

Cheers.  :)

Then don't post on this thread brainiac?

Anyone know if there are any live streams for the Chippenham game tonight?

[Suppresses the temptation to make any references to missing the first leg]  :-X

 :sofa:

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Chippenham in extra time

Won on penalties:)

Fair play to them, now Ebbsfleet on Sunday at 3pm KO and if they win they will be one game from the National league a great achievement if they make it.

Fair play to Chippenham.

We haven't had a proper preseason for a while but do we usually play them? Probably helps us if they're a higher standard.

Also a perfect place to send several of the youngsters to get experience at a better level too.

Under 21s don't count towards the long-term loan limit, under the Vanarama loan rules those count as youth/training loans opening the door for loans of players like Dabre and Minturn as well as I would send Harry Parsons out for a season to get competitive games under his belt ala Twine a couple of years ago.

Also means they can still train with us whilst being out on loan

Absolutely, so we can keep tabs on them in training and in competitive matches, win win for both clubs.

Disappointing that we dont have an U23/reserve league any more though as they used to be quite competitive.

I suppose Chippenham don't train every day as semi-pro? So yeah training here on the days they're not training with Chippenham is ideal.

Luton v Huddersfield in the POs this night.

Absolutely no reason why that can’t be us in the near future.

Well under Macari we had back to back promotions and then got into the play offs in our 2nd season in the Championship (Div 2 at the time).

Under PdC we were in a great position to win promotion to the Championship in his 2nd season right to the point that Jed came in to spoil things.

Its definately possible on the crest of a wave back to back promotions.

Momentum is huge. Power shit out after losing to Preston. Build, slowly and steadily and overtake the bigger clubs who have overstretched themselves financially.

I know this is the great myth that's built up around that season because some fans hero worshiped the man but it doesn't match the facts.

1. PDC's stated reason for leaving in his press statements on resigning were the failure of the FA to approve the takeover of the club and 3 loan deals.
2. But we all know he set the deadline for the takeover as a means to escape when the existing board cut off his transfer money supply and sold Matt Ritchie in the January window to fund the club whilst the takeover as transacted.
3. Anyone with any degree of cynicism suspects that there might have already been quiet discussions with his agent about the Sunderland job. Because there's no way you sack MO'N on 30th March and negotiate with that shark in less than 24 hrs to appoint PDC the next day.
4. At no point under PDC were we in an automatic promotion spot. Our results all season were mixed. Our average league position under him was 6th. Final finishing position 6th

I know that the run of brilliant results over Xmas and NY made it feel like we had the momentum, but that hadn't been sustained. We'd gone from a run of games scoring 16 goals in 4 without reply to losing Ritchie and a run of 4 scoring only 2 from open play and 1 pen.

I can remember people moaning about some of the results in the run in but a lot of the sides we did badly against  under MacDonald we'd not got results against under PDC earlier in the season.

I look at the way those seasons went and can't help but feel that the way PDC 'managed' the team, the scatter gun approach to transfers, the
Approach to man management, all of which cost a bloody fortune, and the way Fitton allowed him to squander resources probably helped push Black to call it quits.

Tried the same thing at Sunderland in his first closed season; signed 13 players, immediately fell out with half of them, wanted shot of a couple by the time the season started, and they got rid 5 games into the season and he's never worked again.

Never in an automatic spot granted but we were third with 55 points when he left a massive 1 point behind the top two.

Then after the Tranmere game which he’d prepared for, picked the team etc we were top.


Sure, his management & spending did us no favours in the long term - but you can’t tell me that side wasn’t challenging for promotion, we were going up as Champions !!!

I’m with Mansfield today - our Wembley opponents

I agree with you Aud

I'd sooner have Northampton if given the choice.
Just a small matter of getting pissed Vale first 🙏🙏

I will probably watch the Northants vs Mansfield game, because I don't want to watch Eurovision. But, wrt the result, I am ambivalent.

I think too many people are thinking about the final. I am worried that Port Vale are the toughest opponents in the semis. I have a bad feeling about the tie.

Port Vale are going to be mighty though. I have no doubt. it's a real 50/50.

That we are in the playoffs, in good form and afaik relatively injury free is all we can ask for.

I'm not saying we weren't. Challenging, we clearly were. I'm just casting doubt on your final statement. If fans of any other club claimed they were nailed on for winning the league in a season when they had been top for a massive  four days, and were only in the auto spots for a couple of weeks in total, we'd laugh at how delusional they were.

I'm also suggesting we probably missed Ritchie more than PDC, as the goals cried up from his departure and as I said we suddenly went from winning games 4 and 5 nil to a run of low scoring draws and wins by the odd goal.

And stop blaming Jed and the new owners for PDC leaving. He left because Black pulled the plug on the blank check supply for signings and sold his best player at a key stage of the season. Blame Black, or PDC himself for stropping off when he didn't get his own way. If Macari or Hoddle or Ardiles had done the same when a key player was flogged on deadline day we'd never have got to the PL.

anyway, happy playoff eve

I blame black for stitching us up with the first chancer he could get to take over

I get he was desperate to get out. But it stated the sequence of events that undid all the good guys money had provided, with interest

Yeah. Screw it. History.

The atmosphere pre match on the terrace at Selhurst was electric. Lasted about 10 minutes post k.o.when we went 2-0 down!

I missed the first 10 mins as the special train was late with about 800 of us on it so we missed the 1st goal and there was no scoreboard there in those days so we didn't know we were a goal down on entry to the ground.

I prefer to remember the electric atmosphere at Selhurst Park against Gillingham and the unbelieveable scenes during the trip home!

Hell yeah!

Forest should have gubbed Sheffield United

Here's to a 5-5 at the City Ground.

Well so do I obviously but the Palace game was the one PV was posting about.

Was that the one where we didn’t have correct kit and had to play in white? And after we had a penalty given against Calderwood he pointed to the mud imprint on his shirt, nowhere near the arm!

That was a league game there and we played in the youth team kit who had played earlier in the day and it was already dirty.

Chippenham lose 1-0 at Ebbsfleet in the National League South play off semi-final. Still, an excellent effort from them to get that far.

I think that was away against Crystal Palace in the old Div 2 (Championship in today’s terms)

I see Harry Toffolo, Danny Ward, Romoney Crichlow* and Rarmani Edmonds-Green* all qualified for the Championship Play Off final at Wembley with Huddersfield beating Luton who brought on Elijah Adebayo.

and also played Amari'i Bell.

Just realised that Brennan Johnson who has scored in both legs for Forest is the son of David Johnson who if I remember correctly had a fantastic record for Forest and may have even scored against Sheffield United in both legs of the play offs in 03.

Although Sheff Utd won that game and lost to Wolves in the final.
Unless my memory is going…

I can only remember his dad playing for Ipswich

I’m sure he started at Manchester United and then went to Bury and smashed in a few goals and went from there to Ipswich where he smashed in a few goals and then Forest where he also smashed in a few goals

Think he may have retired due to injury after that

Just checked you're correct and he had good soring records at both Ipswich & Forest.

FWIR he played a chunk of a season at forest with a ruptured PCL. Apparently that's not good for you and I don't think he ever properly got past it.

So we go into tonight game which decides our Wembley opponents should we triumph over Port Vale tomorrow. Stags take a slim lead into the away leg with the cobblers, who is going to call it then. I say Mansfield hold to win the right to play at Wembley 1-2 Stags away win.

Stags winning 1-0

Staying the bloody obvious but that’s what we need to do tomorrow - get the first goal and restore the 2 goal lead

I fancy us to score a couple tomorrow

Settle the nerves for everyone!

Mansfield deffo paid off the officials for this one, blatant player offside for their goal and a cast iron penalty for Northampton turned down.

Be interesting to see what the second half holds.

The player didn't play it?

Two things that will happen tomorrow...

We will concede,
We will score...

IF we get to the final and Mansfield get through, that O’Toole is a headless chicken (can’t recall how he played against us). He would certainly lose his rag if anyone was getting the better of him. He has just got a yellow in this game and can see him getting a 2nd so he might not even make it there!

True story bro 😂

Should have been 2 red cards in last 10 minutes now.

No chance Northampton turn this around. They just haven't got it in them.

With the Fridge as Northampton's assistant manager not sure we want to see him in the opposite dugout if we get to Wembley.

Sky commentator just said Darrell Clarke, who got Rovers promoted in National League playoffs, just minutes away from getting to L2 final with Mansfield.  :doh:

They must feel so deflated with how their season has ended…

But he ran onto it, covering the ball for the other Mansfield player, and causing the Northampton defence to stutter as they tried to work out if it was as blatantly offside as it looked or not. Definitely interfering with play, whether he physically touched it or not.

And that foul on eppiah was a blatant red!

Northampton had no real answer to Mansfield's defence mind. Couple of half decent attempts but no real 'unlock', and all Mansfield needed to do was hold, which they did.

I’d have pinnock from cobblers next year in our team irrespective of what league we are in.

Well be is from Mansfield I suppose and started his career there, but Nigel Clough looks nothing like him and is right fucking there in front of him. He's a relatively well known, recognisable face isn't he ffs. Even if you haven't done your friggin job properly look at the bench, "on yeah that's Nigel Clough, what was I thinking".

Poor quality game but Mansfield defended well.

On to tomorrow then. Being a Swindon fan i suddenly have a less than positive feeling about it but hopefully we do the job!

Think he meant Ollie Clarke of Mansfield, ex-Rovers.

Tonight - and the Championship playoff last night too - I thought the referees either ignored fouls or treated the dirtier sides (Sheff U and Stags) lightly.

Not so different to Sunday.

I'd hope for some protection but if it's not forthcoming, we're going to have to be prepared to scrap hard ourselves and IMPOSE our own game.

Ollie must have been about 19 or 20 during that season in the conference. It might have been the first season he got any real games under his belt; he can hardly have been said to have "brought them up". Didn't notice he'd pitched up at Mansfield. Thought he'd drifted out of the pro game.

Guessing the commentator had notes that made the link between the two Clarke's both ex Rovers and both involved in that promotion as player and manager potentially meeting at Wembley on opposing sides and then got confused?

Rubbish game, but played in awful weather; but saw nothing to frighten us, should we go through.

Refs are reluctant to make any big decision in case they get it wrong. Sure, these are big games for all clubs in the POs, but just do your job.

No doubt we’ll get the shitty end of the stick tonight, somehow.

Something did surprise me a little was the size of the play off attendances at Mansfield and Northampton.

Mansfield 7,469
Northampton 7,619

Whereas our first leg was 14,086 so nearly the combined attendance of both those games.

Mansfield think that they will take between 10k and 15k to Wembley (we had 13,132 home fans for the Barrow game) , I would think that if we get there we will reach easily 30k again with the good feeling and extra support this season.

Port Vale would sell out the whole thing :D

Plus 50k in the fanzone outside.

Isn’t that close to their capacities, though?

Not a good look from that lass with chip fat thighs getting up from that grassy knoll when it started raining.

Carolyn Radford?

Isn’t she a bit of a MILF?

To be fair to Northampton, that's pretty much the capacity of Sixfields, maybe 150 off and even sell outs rarely fill all the seats.

Mansfield had a couple of thousand tickets available though.

If you like that sort of rubber faced tangerine look I guess so.

She’s Phil Brown?

Yeah, among the cheapskates hoping for a view overlooking the ground.
The primary thought when the camera panned across when it started raining was for goodness sake get some clothes on!

Carolyn was later pictured snuggling up to hubby, after victory, in the main stand.

The Debbie McGee of football

Grimsby won 2-1 at Notts County last night with a 119th minute winner, and will play Wrexham in the Conference play off semi finals this Saturday.

Halifax playing Chesterfield tonight, the winner of that plays Solihull Moors this Sunday in the other play off semi-final.

bugger, wanted county to come up

I don't care as long as Wrexham and their arsehole fans miss out.

Undoubtedly this. But mainly because they'll make it harder to get out if League 2 next season with their spending power.  Stockport have already been promoted and they also have strong financial backing.

Chesterfield won 2-1 at Halifax tonight so will play Solihull Moors on Sunday for a place in the final

Solihul
Chesterfield
Grimsby
Wrexham

In order of preference.

Solihull please. Stopped there en route to Walsall. Fairly local next season  ::)

Chesterfield or Grimsby please!

I miss the fish and chips at Grimsby, although they weren't up to the usual standard on our last visit there.

Solihull please as a good mate lives there and I may well be able to get a ticket for the away game if we coincide with a visit.

Are the semi finals one or two leg and when is the final as the winner won't have much time to prepared for the new season.

Semi finals are one leg, this Saturday and Sunday, and the final is 5th June. Hardly any rest for the winners at all before the new season starts.

As we're playing in Div 4 North next season, we need every local(ish) game we can get!

Many thanks and what I was also thinking.

It will be interesting to see what the total mileage of away games will be for next season

True that!  Gills, Orient, Northampton, Walsall, Newport, Sutton, Crawley, Stevenage and at a push Colchester maybe (longish distance but Southern) are the only southern based sides we willf ace at the moment.

As it currently looks. A grim vision.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FTcmYccWQAAa-EP?format=jpg&name=large

Grim indeed😅

Division 3 would look like every home game would be a local derby.
Full house with Derby Co Sheffield Wed
What a shame   :doh:

Solihull Moors please.

Only an hour and a half up the M5, M42 or the scenic route up the A429 Fosse Way  :)

Its going to be a northern league next season, only nine teams in the south. :(

Newport County our big derby game.

Well, it would have looked a whole lot better but "spilt milk" and all that eh?

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FTcmYccX0AA0rrP?format=jpg&name=large

While that would be ideal, tickets would be gold dust. We could fill their ground on our own.

Indeed. Although it's quicker to get to Crewe (road works aside) than Gillingham.

Ah come on you cockneys, your noses won't bleed if you have to go north of Birmingham  ;) ;) :D


I'll tell you what, from my geographical point of view that looks much better as well.  :doh:

I'd prefer Wrexham as it's (a) a new ground that I might be able to get a ticket for and (b) about half an hour away from me. That said they're the club most likely to challenge at the top of L2 if they come up...

I went there once, I guess it was in the 90's. All I can remember is Wrexham's a shit hole and their fans are thugs.

Agreed, nasty fans, horrible place and one of the few places I felt scared inside and outside the ground. Its a no from the South Somerset jury.

Think I went to Wrexham in one of Kingy's seaaons. Vague memory of some cigar smoking genius of playing van der Linden up front...but it worked cos he scored.

Remember Paul Evans smashing one from 40 yards at Wrexham in the Dennis Wise season (I think).

i witnessed the young starlet Andy Caton scoring on his debut vs wrexham in 2014. He was aged 16. Unfortunately that was it for goals and pretty much his career!

I went to Wrexham for an FA cup game once. I want to say we won 1-0. 2009-10? Greer in the blue kit stands out in my memory.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHorjFngZ14 Ok I remember nothing specific about this game, other than we were lucky to come away with the win. No names on our shirts for some reason!

Very close friends have been offered Forest v Huddersfield tickets. £1100 each. Hopefully they’re corporate. Thanks but no thanks was the reply.

Yes remember it well.
They dominated for large periods of the game and missed a few sitters.
Bloody diversion before the game and made kick off with my eldest within minutes to kick off.

Was the end of our 6 out of 6 winning run if I recall.
Out on the piss in Llangollen.

I think that was the game where Trigger got stung by a wasp.
We were in a pub garden at the time and told him that vinegar sorted out stings. He started to drink it.
😂😂😂 that is true and we still laugh about it now.

The same lad asking in another place are you still serving the all day breakfast 😂😂😂
Ffs the beer went all over the place.

His hat trick was lighting a fag on a petrol forecourt and the women in the shop howling on the loud speaker to put the cigarette out. He calmly said unaware what’s she shouting about 😂😂😂
I think that was on route to Colchester.

Happy Days and memories.

Heard a few stories about Wrexham but not witnessed any issues myself.
Cardiff a different matter though.

Yep, Paul Ince's debut.

Your right about tickets Chalky, wouldn't be good for us fans.  :headhurts:
But for the team/squad traveling on the coach it would be a short journey and no overnight stay in a hotel required, save a bit of money for the club too. Ideal world of course.
 

‘Go on son, make a name for yourself’

it was up the other end to us but Chris Armstrong appeared to elbow Grant Smith in the face and the Ref gave Wrexham a penalty…

Kinky Tom's finest moment

Me and 3 Swindon mates were chased back to the railway station by about 50+ of their "fans" after the game in 85/86 when we won 1-0, they were throwing bottles at us all the way too. Not fond memories, I don't remember the game at all other than there were only about 1,700 there and we had about 600 of those.

We managed to get on a train waiting in the platform just about to leave for Crewe as the guard saw us running and kept the doors open for us.

I remember the place getting trashed by Town fans when we played them in the League Cup on a Tuesday evening. Probably the worst trouble I’ve seen our fans cause - apart from, maybe, Cobblers away during Macari’s reign.

Special train was wrecked on the way to Wrexham and bad trouble away at Northampton in 85 & 86

Awful penalty decision in Wrexham’s favour for dive by Paul Mullins but Grimsby equalise minutes later with a lovely goal.

Massive game for Mansfield, probably the biggest game since I started supporting them this morning.

🤣🤣😢

Mansfield till half 9, he's Mansfield till half 9!

Wrexham 1 (mullin) Grimsby 1 so far

edit: such a soft pen for Wrexham

bloody hell though, Grimsby got away with 2

Wrexham 1 Grimsby 2 (47)

Nice :pint:

Good, keep it up.

I have watched a bit of this on hesgoals and it looks a typical National league game, lots of endeavour and running around but woeful quality final ball from both sides.

Tozer grabs one 2-2

2-2 Ben Tozer…

2-2 (Tozer, 62)

3-2

Not Ben Tozer..

Hand of Mullin

3-2 (64, mullin)

hand fucking ball

STFC rejects 3 - 2 Grimsby

3-3!

Cheats 3Grimsby 3 😀

3-3

Is it only one leg so decided today?

McAlinden on for Wxm now, a man we made an offer for under Wellens when he was at Halifax.

Yes

Cheers, that's not very fair😅

Yeah, winner plays the winner of Solihull vs Chesterfield tomorrows game at Wembley.

Thanks JJ

Cheats 3 Grimsby 4

3-4

Sounds like a basketball match😀

Not Wembley but London Stadium

what a game

Cracking game this.
My Cousin is there follows Grimsby all over, as fucking daft as my lot.

4-4

4 - 4

4-4

4-4

shades of the sheff u match

Ah sorry my mistake I didnt realise that.

Was thinking the same.

One of the best games i've ever watched. Crazy shit.

Acres of space in Grimsby's defence all the time.

Even after 89 mins its still end to end.

champion league, shmapions league

Don’t mind another 30 minutes of this!

yup

Come on Grimsby

Referee hasn’t got much right in this game

If you combine both keepers together they still wouldnt be half as good as Ward.

Grims getting a grip on the game now, nice to see Palmer is still a thug.

Blimey that was an awful miss by Grimbs with just the keeper to beat.

4-5 can they hold onto it?

4-5 to Grims now.

That’s karma. All the goals Wrexham have scored from Tozer’s long throws

Like many of 'Numbs when he was there before signing for Wxm.

Well done Grims, keep the moneybags down.

You owe me the cost of buying a plane ticket for the play offs that I saved you! ;)

My Cousin in tears - Good lad ⚽️

Well that should put to bed the fears of some who didn’t fancy Wrexham out spending everyone in L2 next season.

Tbh, with flights being cancelled all over this weekend, I don’t think I would have coped if mine had been one of them.

Shitty thing, this. An Everton fan set up a fake coach company and took orders from Liverpool fans for transport to Paris for the Champions League final and, obviously, didn’t turn up.

There’s rivalry and all that, but that was awful.

I wonder who’s fault it will be tonight if the scouse lose and there is carnage during and after the game?

You’re a better person than me because I think that’s absolutely incredible shithousery. “Rich Arlison” the founder of the company… Richarlson also happens to be Everton’s best player 😭

not going to be a better game then that this weekend!

great to see Wrexham's chequebook  being consigned to a different league

if that's true they've got 2 problem's
  1. a fraud investigation
   2. a kicking coming

I did see a story about a shit coach company not turning up until 12:15am agree telling everyone to go home.

Great result in the end, would have been harsh to lose to a dive and a hand ball goal. Hoping for a Solihull win tomorrow

I'm sure Mr. Klopp will be quick to tell us

No Wrexham v Tranmere next season!

Yay. Result one of two today  :toocool:

Another season in the non leagues😀

Wrexham money bags miss out.  :bye:

Splashed the cash and got nowhere.   :smugfu:

I wonder if Daddies boy will still be in charge of Mansfield next season😀

HT.

Solihull Moors 2-1 Chesterfield.  ;)

It’s funny that people want Solihull to win as it’s a closer game, but most of us won’t get tickets as we will probably get a Sutton like allocation

Plenty of stands to accommodate & ample parking 😀😀

FT.

Solihull Moors 3-1 Chesterfield.

So either Grimsby or Solihull Moors next season. :hmmm:

are either of them suddenly rich.

I want the other guys to win if so

I want to see Forest back in the PL, and apparently so does whoever is operating VAR...

Same here no problem seeing Forest back in the Premiership

unlucky Danny Ward and Harry Tofolo

But about time Forest were back in the big time

I’m pleased for Forest, though I wouldn’t have been upset if Huddersfield had won. I used to teach Ryan Yates in primary school so very happy for him.

that's a nice link.

did think Huddersfield deserved a VAR review on the second penalty shout though.

So, which trip is more attractive next season - Solihull or Grimsby? Let me guess.

HT.

Grimsby 0- 1 Solihull Moors.  :)

Grimsby on a Tuesday night in January of course.  :)

FT.

Grimsby 1 - 1 Solihull Moors.

Extra time required.

AET

Grimsby 2 - 1 Solihull Moors.

A cold Tuesday night in January it is then.  :badmood: 

BBC reporting that Solihull won AET, think someone may have had too many beers

Well done to Grimsby, deserved after three away wins at Notts County, Wrexham and then Solihull.

So you keep wittering on about. Talking of making a mistake, you could do with sorting your quoting out.

It was showing the same on Sky SPorts for a while too - so it wasn't the BBC, it was whatever scores reporting system they all use that got it wrong for a while

It confused me for a few minutes at the time as it showed 2 goal scorers for Grimsby and one for Solihull

Do they all still get their feed from the Press Association? If so, the error may have been theirs.

Just to bump this, not sure if he has been injured or just not getting a regular game, but he ain't gonna break JT's record this season, still needs 9 to beat the record, so assuming he plays every game rest of this season will still need to play 6 next season - if they sign him on for another year!
