Russ and Pete went 🎵 Daaaarn to Margate 🎵 along with Pete’s American friend Eugene to tick off yet another ground and dip back into The Isthmian League scene. It seemed timely with the furore over the PL / FA decision on Cup replays freshly on topic. We ranted somewhat and also gauges the view from Margate fan Graham(sp?) on this rather emotive issue. Srand or fall! UTA! Masters and Bullingham…enemies of ‘the little guy’! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The season is petering out, which seems appropriate on a week when Peter was out himself, due to prior commitments but Russ instead had the pleasure of Turf Moor attendee Andy Bass to give his take on the give and take of the defensive possession errors that marked this blustery affair. In Part 2, the boys then cast eyes over the exciting run in up and down the divisions and pondered the improving prospects of Albion hanging onto RDZ for next season’s campaign. Stand or fall! UTA!

Yes another game vs Fulham, another frustrating performance and result as a still injury ravaged Albion rotated in prep for Roma Part 1 and the rather curious starting 11 couldn’t muster a goal.
