What’s the point of a football club? If we look at the motives of its owners, we’d get some strange answers. It could be a millionaire’s pension fund, a property development opportunity, a shot at a capital gain, a millstone, a tax dodge, an ego trip, a nest egg,...
Real Madrid v Barcelona at the Bernabeu this was not, but to Poole Town and Weymouth fans this was the big one, 'El Jurassico'! Ok, I know its a bit different from eighty thousand Spaniards roaring their team on, but two hundred odd fans, on a cold Tuesday night...
Poole Town stretched their lead at the top of the Southern League South West Division with a resounding, if not convincing 3-0 win over their Gloucestershire rivals Shortwood Utd. The Dolphins never really got out of second gear in the first half, and yet they still looked the most...
