Scores the winner for Sheffield United at Sixfields this afternoon. :clapping:

Well no he didn't.

My mistake, he only got an 'assist' on the winner. :blush:

What on earth is going on. He has only been there a few months. He should return to Solihull and sort them out after losing 9-0 on Saturday.

Player revolt according to TalkSport. Several players approached the Chairman about something, not entirely sure what however I've seen it said online that he had the players spending 'hours in the classroom' and a training regime similar to Graham Westley!

They surely can't have expected to be any higher than they are, comfortably in mid-table still in with an outside chance of making the play-offs in their first season at this level for a good few years. I'd consider that a good season if I was them.

Jake Beecroft's Dorking Wanderers reached the Ryman Div One South Play-Off Final yesterday. They can feel even more hard done-by than Witton in not achieving automatic promotion - they amassed 105 points but still lost out to Claudiu Hoban's Tooting & Mitcham.

I wonder if any eagle eyed Diamonds fan has spotted a reference to a former R & D player in last nights Witton programme?
I'll leave it until tomorrow to reveal if no one else picks up on it.

No missed that, though I did find myself at a slight disadvantage having not purchased a programme.
