The German Left Party did particularly well in Sunday's election. Much to the surprise of more or less everyone....including themselves. My take on why is here via the American-German Institute Die Linke americangerman.institute/2025/02/the-su…

It feels like it's do or die for Salop. Team Hough travels to Peterborough in hope rather than expectation. Breathe on 'em Salop!

Well, Birmingham lost this evening. So that's surely evidence will go to St Andrews and beat a flagging side. You're all with me on this, right? 😕

I am not even sure where to start with this. - What are his aims over these nine games? - Is the plan for him to stay on longer? - How on earth has this all moved so quickly? I've have more Qs, folks, plenty more.....

The morning after the night before. I've no idea whether Michael Appleton is the right choice for Salop. But I am at least now looking forward to going to St Andrews on Saturday. We may well get hammered, but at least the page has been turned. Breathe on 'em Salop!

The latest episode of Salopcast in glorious technicolour! Have a watch of me, Dan Hough and Salopcast chewing the fat on the arrival of Michael Appleton. #Salop 🔷🔶 youtu.be/hiF8jJcdF-E?si…

I'd just like to let everyone of a Salop persuasion know that last night at Wycombe was (according to the spreadsheet) officially a 'free hit'. So, given that we got a point, it was officially a good night in the battle for survival. Just sayin'.......

Latest episode of the Ascot United FC podcast now out. Plenty of coverage of 1st XI's fight for a play off place, the Ascot United Women & Girls FC's promotion and the U14 girls' contest with some visitors from the USA. Plus, the saga of the lost kit gets explained..... pod.fo/e/2c5de2

Your club goes up, your club goes down. It remains your club nonetheless. Never in our history will Salop end with fewer points in a season than will be the case in 2024-25. It's been dismal Wagons still just about to roll towards Northampton's Sixfields. Breathe on 'em Salop!

I feared that my (hastily stolen) son's headphones would look ropey. And, crikey, I was not wrong..... youtube.com/watch?v=rlXRXQ…

On 20 Dec 1985 I was mascot for Salop against Blackburn Before the game Chic Bates came up to me with a stern look on his face. "Look, I need Perksy (our keeper) for the game. You go easy on him, ok? Promise me?" That was nearly 40 years ago, I still remember it. What a legend.
