  1. Goal for Wycombe
  2. 4-0 Accrington! Wycombe losing at Cheltenham though
  3. 2-0 Accrington
  4. Molyneux scores again for Accrington
  5. Why would they need to rig it so two of the best teams in the world (one of them with home advantage) meet each other in the final? The path through the knockout stage isn't exactly straightforward for Brazil: assuming they win their group, they'll probably have Holland or Chile in the second round, followed by Colombia, Uruguay or England in the quarter-final, and then France or Germany in the semi-final. Argentina's path is easier to begin with, but still very tough... assuming a group win: Switzerland or Ecuador, then Belgium or Portugal, then Spain or Italy. Any team who gets to the final will have deserved it, difficult to see any of the top teams failing to get out of the group stage.
  6. Ah, good, the old "there's a problem with this site" thing again. You've been claiming there's a problem with this site for years, and yet look, you're still here, with your 11k+ posts. Some problem. And yet people seem incapable of just ignoring anything they deem to fit that bill. "Indulge him" As if anybody on here is even remotely important enough for the rules to not apply.
  7. Not by me, no. It's a standard feature of the software we currently use. Any extension of that would take up hours of my own time for the benefit of a handful of people who can't seem to control their own eyes and need the forum itself to tell them what is and isn't a valid post. What, like the 3-post limit for registered users, you mean? How is it more difficult to ignore a thread started by someone whose views you have no interest in when that person has started a number of threads? There are FIFTY threads on each page of the forum. At a rough count, they have been created by around 35 different users. It really isn't difficult to just not click on a thread started by whoever you happen to dislike this week.
  8. Also, there's a MASSIVE level of hypocrisy in play from those who whinge about GS derailing threads when you look at what those same people have done to this one
  9. Rather than have me or another developer use more man-hours than it's worth for such a minor piece of functionality, you could just use your own eyes and see when the user you don't like has posted and scroll on past. It really isn't difficult. People seem to look for an excuse to get wound up and/or angry these days.
  10. A novel concept. It'll never catch on.
  11. I find it very difficult to believe there is anybody who genuinely stops using a forum because they don't like what one person is posting. This forum comes equipped with a handy "Ignore User" feature, which you are all very welcome to use. It seems many would rather whinge about somebody having far too much time on their hands instead, though. Meh.
  12. I must have dreamed that Vaughan did a runner halfway through a series against South Africa and broke down in tears in the press conference to announce it.
  13. That's my assumption as well.
  14. :lol: :lol:
  15. As per the thread title, Lloyd Isgrove has been loaned to Peterborough for the rest of the season. As a result, he'll be eligible to play in the Johnstones Paint Trophy final later this month. An interesting development considering Les Reed's comments on the Footballers Football Show on Sky a few days ago.
  16. The ticket system was upgraded a matter of days after Cortese left - difficult to tell whether there is any link there, I guess it depends on whether the contract between SFC and the software provider included updates or whether they were a chargeable extra. The booking fee seems to be a bit hit-and-miss. For some away games, I've not had to pay one, but for others I have. I suspect it's a case of whoever in the ticket office sets up the "event" within the system forgetting to add the fees occasionally.
  17. :lol: :lol:
  18. I assume the most obvious thing would be that the middle of our shirts is probably worth a bit more than £300,000 a year. Many Championship sides get more in shirt sponsorship than we do at the moment.
  19. Where's the watch?
  20. Surprised it's taken them so long to do that - I know it's a trivial matter in the grand scheme of things, but the original name was just a sequential "placeholder" name used by the law firm ML appointed to oversee the takeover. It had absolutely no relevance to anything, really.
  21. Everything he said in that BBC article a while ago suggests he knows he's got to keep his distance (except if/when MP asks for his input), so that would suggest he's got a pretty good grasp on what's going on.
  22. Fulham are being charged £37 for their game up there, two weeks before ours and a Saturday 3pm kick-off.
  23. For those with Sky, it's also available On Demand
  24. Statistically the safest mode of transport
  25. Fair enough Regarding the bolded bit, I'm sure there was an Air Crash Investigation or Seconds From Disaster documentary covering that one on Nat Geo. Waited for the co-pilot to go for a **** and then locked the cockpit door. Bugger all anyone can do about a situation like that.
