The Fans are Turning?

Good day one and all. We got into the game against Chelsea this weekend in a weakened state, both squad wise and mentally. The mood is flat and the rampant optimism of pre season has retreated like the turning tide. We have been playing poorly, losing regularly and all hope of improvement and revival is […]

A TRIP TO THE SAN SIRO!

Hello, and hope you’re well, despite the Arsenal blues, or is it more like how Holly G describes her emotions in ‘Breakfast at Tiffanys’: the ‘mean reds’? Anyway, red, blue or placid green, the mighty cannon makes another trip over the channel and onto the San Siro Stadium in Milano for a Champions League clash […]

THE TOON!

Hail fellows, and well met! How are you? Saturday 2nd of November at 12.30pm ( western European time) sees the mighty cannon take on Newcastle United up at St. James’ park. Aside of the early rise its sure to be a high octane clash? Unless its not. Anyway, its the clash of the ‘dark arts’ […]

CLASH OF THE INVINCIBLES!

Hello! How are you, hope you’re doing well? Tonight at 7.45pm (western European time) sees the mighty cannon take the train (etc) up to Preston, Lancashire, to take on Preston North End in the second of our Carabao Cup games for the 2024/5 season. So it’s back to Deepdale. I lived (suffered) on Deepdale road, […]

MERSEYBEAT 

Hello, and how are you? Sunday October 27th at 4.30pm ( western European time) will mean a visit to the southern realms by Liverpool FC as they take on the mighty Cannon.  Liverpool, as you know are a team with such a vast and decorated history that needs no introduction, so I won’t give them […]

Our Mole/Miner visitors are currently 27th in the […]

Awful Football = Awful result.

Hi all. There we have it, our first league defeat and well earned it was. We kicked off with three defensive midfielders with little or no creativity between them ,and low and behold , we created nothing, zilch, nada, nowt. The first half hour, 11 v 11, was awful turgid stuff which resulted with zero […]

Bournemouth FC v Arsenal FC, Back at it.

Hello! How are you? Good to be back from the lull of the international ‘break’? On Saturday the 19th of October 5.30pm (western European time) the mighty cannon takes up positions against Bournemouth FC down at Dean Court, Dorset. Hopefully all our players will come back from the international scraps with no scrapes and will […]

DAYS OF SNOOZE AND SLO-TIME LULLDAYS

As we say goodbye to the the warm sunshine for this year, and head into the gloaming of October and worse, the next inter-lull (oh joy of joys), I think we’ve all got a bit of an idea how things are moving this season for the mighty Cannon. It might not be what we wanted […]

MEETING SOTON ON THE CROSSROADS TO THE INTER-LULL?

Hello, how are you? Hope you’re doing well? On Saturday Oct 5th at 3.00pm (western European time) sees the mighty Cannon entertain at our shed the Sotonists of the deep south for target- practise and manoeuvres. A match-up which at this moment of writing gives Southampton a 5.9% of winning, so I’m sure ye old […]
