  • Yeah it did say it was 1-1 with an OG from AAH but that appears to have been deleted?

  • Wait ignore me. Just seen the deleted tweet!

  • haha just shows how much attention admin have on the game !!

  • It's appearances not starts so I think Mehmeti just qualifies.

    Alicia Povey. She has gone from strength to strength as she has become the regular co-comm. I used to just be disappointed if @bluntphil was not on comms, but now it is also disappointing if she is not on co-comms.

  • Alicia is great. A real credit to the club.

  • That's at least the second club AAH has scored against us for

  • Przybek and Forino started the last game. Obita and Hanlan are senior enough. We're fine.

    He must have 10% of his goals against Wycombe then.

  • Poor from the keeper there.

    not according to the rules - starts only.

    3rd that. She’s great. Very at ease. I assume she will get a job in the mainstream broadcast media at some point.

  • Three now. and now four. Not very encouraging at all.

  • 4-0 down to Burton in the Chuckletrade. How will we ever live down the embarrassment?

  • 4 nil...getting embarrassing now !! especially with Holloway scoring a bracel!

  • Sound like U15’s football …. Men against boys

    Agree - good delivery if a trifle brand

  • Imagine banging a tenner on this one.

  • I always thought AAH looked to have goals in him and him except it wasn’t for us and it wasn’t when it mattered

    Chuckled.

  • This is hilarious

  • Also, we haven't beaten a non-U21 team at home in this competition for eight years.

  • Someone get one the phone to Grant Holt. He loves scoring 5 goals at Adams Park in the paint pot trophy. We can still win this thing!

  • And Gaz said we would field a full strength side!

    You're right - Sky said it was appearances in their summary of the rules. Maybe Mehmeti will be starting against Portsmouth!

  • burton to issue a commemorative video??

    Thanks - heard Phil mention her name a bit earlier and had a quick google where I realised she’s also fronting the Our House videos the club.

    Seems to still be playing for the ladies team also from what I can see? I’m no expert but I think she’ll have a career in broadcasting/commentary at this rate. I’d pick her over some of the commentators on MOTD already.
