Well, that was awful. Stevenage came and played well to take all three points with them. End of a good run onward to Grimsby Saturday.

Lots of games off because of the snowy conditions. It actually snowed a little this afternoon here, just flurries, didn't stick.
This weather won't break soon, and I believe that most of the fixtures in league one and two and national league will be off.

My god that wind! Glad I'm not sitting in the stands! (No, I don't!)

Stay safe and stop building snowmen you lot!

Sheffield Wednesday have now climbed out of the relegation Zone. They started the season with some minus points. I have to admire them they have battled well.

That is .now six wins in a row.
Beat (played them off the park) Port Vale 3-1.

Onwards to Tuesday night.

I think that you have enough to avoid relegation John.

Stay safe


Well done mate. Cheers I hope we have enough to avoid the drop.

Good luck, on the odds, you should win.

Onwards to Tuesday and Oxford in the pizza cup, tin pot cup semi-final away.
Beat city and going to beat United. Oxford that is!

Well it's Arsenal v Leeds this weekend, so I'm torn. I just hope it's a win for someone, a draw is just both of them losing points. I think Arsenal need the points more than Leeds at this stage. Leeds just need to stay up this season, Arsenal really need to be higher up in the table.

Be watching that.

It is actually snowing here this afternoon, it must be warmer in Moscow?
And that wind, must be minus 10 out there!

Dog walk is postponed, because of snow and covid.

yeh, it was minus 4 C here this morning, then there was an icy wind chilling it even more. So, what a great time to have a power cut!! Thankfully it was only off for a couple of hours, but was worrying at the time.
We have had a few snowflakes here daily for a couple of weeks, but thankfully nothing settling on the ground. I might need to concede that hubby's 'It's too cold for snow' comments might actually be right this year!

Argggh we went and lost 2-3 :( We were 2-0 up at half time. 2 postponed games below us keeps the gap at 5 points. But it means they have a game in hand. We are up in Smoggy land (Middlesbrough)on Tuesday night. Need to win.

The unusual event of getting snow sticking on the ground and its about -5 out there, with wind chill about -10, gonna be a skating rink in the morning.
Not been as cold as this for many a year.
Glad I wasn't in Braemar the other day, -20. Now that is cold!
Hope it thaws out for Tuesday night down Oxford.

We do get snow here most winters as we are high up, probably as high as FGR, but a different hill.

Talking about being as high as FGR!

We are on the way to wemberleyyyy again, this time in pizza pot cup.
We beat Oxford at their place 2-0.

Cheered me up no end.
On top of my covid jab, not a bad day all round.
Captain Tom, was right, there are always better tomorrows!

Woo hoo!

Well what can I say. Just seen us on telly and we really ought to have had 6. But we settled for 4-1 win so I'm well chuffed. We are now 7 points clear. Lets see if we can bag 3 points from Derby on Tuesday night. UTT.

Drew 2-2, a bit of deja vu. Leading 2-1, they have a man sent off, and we settle for the win. Sit back and they scored a beauty to equalise. Third time or is it fourth time, that we have dropped points, with having the extra player.

Not a good performance, I have never heard reds fans so quiet! The bluenoses were very happy last night.

Onwards to Carlisle Tuesday, really like my trips to Brunton park. (@Cumberland) should be a good game.

Carlisle away and would be a good result if we get anything.
The weather might have a say in proceedings.
