Just before the closure of the Russian transfer window, it was announced that the "money-no-object" Russian club called Anzhi Markhachkala had signed the Blackburn Rovers centre-back, Christopher Samba, for a reported fee of £12million.

Who?

Samba will be missed I feel. He was one of the most underrated defenders in the Prem.

Apparently this Russian bunch make man city look short of cash.

A mate of mine went to two of those games today. He didn't exactly enjoy either !!

Well, I watched one on telly and went to another, so I probably saw him!

Conference North

League leaders Hyde FC played their best match for some time and they consolidated their position, with a 4-0 home win over Droylsden in the Tameside derby match. They are now eight points clear of Nuneaton Town with both sides having played 30 games.

0-0 'basement battle' indeed at Argyle today, Argyle had a good few chances to kill off a poor D & R side but didn't take their chances :roll:
On a happier note The Celts move 23 points clear in the SPL

Scunthorpe 0-0 Brentford .... I also saw a tweet earlier about Scunthorpe United.

See that on the day #Scunthorpe lacked a goal threat, names like Hayes, Hooper, Keogh, Josh Wright all scored. Even Jon Forte got in on act!

Even Jonathon Forte, the man who did the square root of bugger all in front of goal for Scunthorpe managed to score today! :roll:

Little old Reading go 12 wins from 14 games today with a superb away result at Middlesbrough. Now I see why Wolves wanted McDermott

I think this has got to be the most minor mention this thread has ever known.

I once played at an Essex Senior League stadium - if you can call it a stadium - without permission!

I will probably always have a soft spot for Southend Manor. 'Twas nice when they had their moment in the sun on this forum (this thread).

They are having a very good season, being joint top of their league with Witham Town on 56 points....9 points clear of Takeley in third place.

They were Clapton's opposition, when I first went to watch the Tons a few weeks ago. A 1-1 draw, with both goals being debatable penalties!

Even at County Level? hock: Howard Webb has got competition!

I'll be giving it a listen although sod's law will dictate a cautious game

More than you think at non league level!

Not ESL, but I have played at a Sussex County League ground, when I played in a charity match at Peacehaven & Telscombe FC.

A great game with both sides contributing to a magnificent spectacle - spectators got their moneys worth

 

[Ivo]

So close :cry:

I've said this before but owing to a certain video game (not FIFA) I have a very soft spot for Cardiff - they are probably my third team. And to see them lose to my main team's arch rivals just makes it that much worse...

2008 all over again I guess. Now watch the Bluebirds plummet in the League

...Adam missed...

That was a lot more than just 'missed'

Thought that was a meteor that was heading towards my back garden then, turns out it was Charlie Adam's penalty.
