There are 2.5 million millionaires in the UK... There are 512 players in the Premier League... And you all want footballers to donate or take pay cuts during this? And I agree. But there’s also a lot more rich people out there. Easy targets for people to jump on the bandwagon.
Anyone got Klopp’s number? Played two 90’s in 48 hours. Wondering if I could pop into the training ground, get a rub, use the cryotherapy chamber, jump in the jacuzzi and have a protein shake? Mrs won’t give me a massage, don’t have a bath and only have a Diet Coke in the fridge
A picture that’s worth a thousand words... You throw an 18 year old into a game where your team are struggling, and expect him to shine. Then to take him off 👎🏼 Piss poor management. Should’ve been the best day of his life, yet he will go home feeling that it’s been his worst.
I might be 35, balding ever so slightly (quite a fair bit) but I’ll back myself to hit a free kick every now and again. 😅
The celebration with the lads. Love em to bits 👊🏼💙
Serious question... Those lads that don’t go to football on a Saturday, what do do you instead... What makes you look forward to the weekend cos I just don’t know?! Just heard some lad in the petrol station say he’s going ‘sofa shopping with this girlfriend’. Ffs
A club told me they had to get rid of their welfare manager because they couldn’t afford them. 30k a year. Maybe a weeks wages of their top striker. I don’t care if you pay someone 300k over 10 years, if they save one player, it’s worth it. Priorities are wrong. Help is needed.
Today = 4 years bet free 🙌🏼 I was tearing my family apart and having to accept that I’d lost the career that I dreamt of since childhood. It took me a while to do that, but through talking I managed it. Talking is powerful 🙌🏼

@epicpgc
I’ve just had to witness my girlfriend celebrating as though she’s won the lottery when I told her there’s no football on tv for a month. Had to count to ten. Heads gone.
“Exposed Bracknell’s weakness in the right back spot”, said Lee Dixon. These lads will watch this back with nothing but pride until the right sided players hear him say that. Absolutely piss poor in my opinion. No need to dig out lads on the biggest days of their careers.
3 years today without a bet 🙌🏼 to all the people that have helped me along the way, thank you. If you have an issue then talk about it. It’s powerful what talking can do. I’ve helped a few people and hope to help many more.
#AProblemSharedIsAProblemHalved
This time 5 years ago I was driving on the M25 in my car sobbing like a heartbroken teenage girl... 😂 I hadn’t had my heart torn apart though, I was driving to rehab for a month. Rehab wasn’t on my bucket list but it definitely turned my life around. ‘Look back, don’t stare!’ ✌🏼
🤥 Real players have a bacon and sausage roll, a Lindt chocolate bear and a Diet Coke for breakfast, followed by turkey and gammon with all the trimmings and 8 pints, and then have to act like everything is okay on Boxing Day at 3pm.
These are the type of people who shout ‘f*^king rubbish mate, you’re useless, get him off’ every single week up and down the country! 😂😫 If you have two minutes spare today then watch this twice, cos once isn’t enough!
Management has arrived a lot sooner than expected, but here we go! For people that know me will know that I’ll leave no stone left unturned in the pursuit of success. Extremely fortunate to have

Emotional mess right now. Come on Eriksen, the whole world is with you ❤️🙌🏼 I couldn’t care less about the Euros continuing after witnessing that. Terrifying 😔 As for BBC, I can’t quite believe they thought it was okay to show a man getting resuscitated live on TV.
One thing I’ve learnt from tonight is not to waste your time when it comes to football. Don’t sit around picking up cash, go and play games. I say that as tonight I was the oldest player at training when what feels like only yesterday I was the youngest. Enjoy every moment! 🙌🏼⚽️
I am seeing kids in non league with football agents. And I mean kids! Playing lower than a snakes bollocks and being sold the dream. The worst thing the FA ever did was get rid of the exam you had to pass to become one. This has to stop! 😩
Gambling should only ever be entertainment. We are delighted to release our 'Stay In Control' series.

People come to your house, you let them know who is boss. Tell them to take their shoes off. Chelsea have just walked into Tottenham’s gaff, gone straight to the fridge, changed channel on the tv and left their car parked across the end of your drive so your mum can’t get out.
Next bit of advice to young players...
Do what’s best for your career, not what looks best on Instagram or snapchat.
Don’t waste a year being affiliated with a club when you’re not going to play.
A year later you’ll drop even further down the ladder having not played.
✌🏼
Over the moon to commit to the club until 2026. Massive thanks to the board for offering me the deal, the management team for their continued support, the players for the performances they’re giving us and the fans for the efforts shown at home and away every week.

@sloughtownfc
. I’m extremely proud to manage this football club, with the staff and players that we have and the supporters that follow us. It’s a huge thanks from me 💙
I’m glad that my ‘lack of class’ and being ‘very inexperienced’ has resulted in us getting the 3 points. Tell the truth and you won’t go far wrong and in this case that’s proven to be the case. Credit to the league for coming to the right decision. 👊🏼

The National League has now determined the outcome of the abandonment from the National League South fixture on 2 March.
The match has been awarded to Slough Town in accordance with League rules.

Well that’s me not sleeping tonight..😅
I honestly couldn’t be any more proud of the lads after that performance. We can’t play football as well as Ebbsfleet, but one thing the boys can do is run through brick walls for one another. We found a way, we did it, together as one.💙👊🏼
THE FIRST ROUND OF THE FA CUP AWAITS! 🙌
A comfortable 2-0 against Ebbsfleet United confirms our first-round tie against Grimsby Town!

#EmiratesFACup
Getting hammered (7-2) in the replay at Grimsby was a highlight of our season, regardless of the result. We had two incredible days on the road, our fans in great voice and some of the lads playing in the biggest games of their lives thus far. Memories created… 🫶🏻

To everyone involved at every level of football on my Twitter, enjoy the season ahead. May it be a happy and healthy one, with a sprinkle of success 🙌🏼 Wives and girlfriends that don’t get involved, see you in May. It’s been a pleasure shopping with you for the past two months 👍🏼
It’s too easy for people to say they’re depressed, anxious, suicidal and so on. It takes away from those who really are struggling. Mental health is not a joke. You wouldn’t choose to have it. Makes me furious that it’s almost become trendy to have a condition of some sort. 💭
I’m football obsessed but if the league gets paused, which it looks as though it’s, then let’s not get bitter. It’s been a terrible year for thousands of families, and as much as it pains me to say it, there’s more to life than kicking a ball into a net. A little perspective 💭
200 not out 👊🏼 Enjoyed every minute of my time at the club and feel hugely proud to now be at the wheel at 36 with so many great people on board. Too many people to thank, but thanks to you all 💙👊🏼

@epicpgc
A Yr10 class of 30 students, 25 told me they want to be professional gamers when they’re older, and that people, is where we are going wrong.
I actually worry for this generation and the next. What happened to wanting to be a footballer, scrum half or a batsman? 🤷♂️
What a fucking day! Unbelievable to be a part of. Atmosphere was incredible! The parents even got involved in the celebrations!! WE ARE GOING UP SAY WE ARE GOING UP!
@sloughtownfc
All I want from today is for the lads to make the club proud, can’t ask for more than that. We know it’ll be tough but as long as we give it our all then I’ll be pleased. Whatever will be will be! Get there safe and enjoy the day. Let’s go! 💙👊🏼
@sloughtownfc
Just wanted to wish the fans a safe trip up north for what should be a great occasion for our football club. It’ll be a great experience for some of our lads and one we are massively looking forward to. It’s days like today that make football special. Let’s go! 👊🏼
@sloughtownfc
Firstly the fan is fine and was fine after 5 minutes 💙
But, the lengths some people will go to to get a game off when they’re under pressure… 😅
Then there is us just enjoying our season with zero pressure at all…
Dignity still intact our end, as it always will be! 👊🏼
Match abandoned.
Due to the ongoing medical emergency, we must inform both supporters that today’s game has been abandoned. Updates to follow.
#OneSlough
This absolutely amazes me. Just spent 30 minutes on the phone to
@pidge40
after a team mate asked me to call him. I didn’t realise there was a convenient time to have depression. The most narrow minded tweet I’ve ever seen. Sometimes well-being comes before football.
Arguably the most heartbreaking tweet I’ve ever read. I’ve mentioned it before, when you get released you immediately lose your identity as ‘Scott the footballer’. Support is needed in this field. Im not qualified to do it but would happily give up my time to talk to youngsters.
Nothing but positive things to say about a fantastically well run and supported club
@sloughtownfc
It’s been an absolute pleasure and loved every minute of it. Onto the next challenge 🙌🏼⚽️ Scotty x
What a feeling! What a group we have. Staff, players and fans. We keep defying the odds! So proud to be a part of a special night. Bring on round two ⚽️ 🏆
@sloughtownfc
What a win that is! To come from behind 4 times and to find a way to win shows incredible character. The boys give the club all they’ve got every single week. Thanks to those that travelled, first class as always. Get me on that party bus back to Berkshire! 🍻
@sloughtownfc
And just like that it’s back again… Good luck to everyone starting their league and FA cup campaigns tomorrow. Let the emotional rollercoaster begin…
@sloughtownfc
What a year it’s been! I wouldn’t even know how to describe it, but I’d go with stressful, rewarding, challenging, emotional, enjoyable, tiring, eventful, but most importantly I’ve learnt a hell of a lot with help from many people along the way. Onto the next one 💙
@sloughtownfc
Mickey Lewis... 😢 Can’t quite believe. I know it’s easy to say nice things about people once they’ve departed us, but what an absolute gent of a man. Will be sorely missed. Thoughts are with his family and friends. RIP 💙💛
Why is it that people who ‘hate the police’ are the ones who get on the wrong side of the law? For someone who has never been on the wrong side, I think they do a great job. Strange that isn’t it?! 😂🤷♂️
Trying to find content for matches ‘on this date’ in the past is sometimes a struggle on certain days.
March 3rd, though, is not too difficult.
Making a point of this
@scottdavies1988
goal at Torquay, 12 years ago today, will never get boring
“There is to be late drama”
When I took the job at Slough I didn’t know danny to speak to, but his words to me were ‘take my number, as a young manager I want to help you’, and we’ve spoke twice a week since. The man is an absolute diamond, heart of gold. So to read this I’m gutted. 👊🏼💙
Welling United can confirm that Danny Bloor has left the club with immediate effect after being relieved of his duties as First-Team Manager.

I wanted us to give a good account of ourselves and I think it’s safe to say that we just that. Could’ve been 2 or 3 to the good at half time but Grimsby came out the traps second half. A replay it is 🤝 Will be a great experience for our lads, let’s embrace it.
@sloughtownfc
Full time here at a sold out Arbour Park. It ends a 1-1 draw, with everything to play for in a replay at Grimsby on Tuesday 14th November. Well done boys!👏

#EmiratesFACup
That was tough to watch Harry Maguire then. I hope to god he clears his name so all the sadistic bastards in this country get on with their own lives. I’ve never seen a nation where people love one of their own to fail.
7 wins and 3 draws in our last 10 home games is an achievement that I didn’t think would be possible after losing 5-2 to Tonbridge in early September. However, these boys give us/me absolutely everything and I couldn’t be more proud 👊🏼💙
@sloughtownfc
Full time, what a game! A brilliant Slough performances sees all 3 points staying at Arbour Park, thanks to goal from Goddard, Minhas and Platt!

9 wins and 5 draws in our last 14 home games, 29 scored, 8 conceded and 9 clean sheets in that time.
We’ve got ourselves into an extremely good position to get to that 48-50 point mark asap.
Hugely proud of everyone involved on and off the pitch 👊🏼💙
@sloughtownfc
I came across these photos earlier which are taken one year apart, both in pre season. Most people think that gambling just affects finance but it certainly affects a lot more than that. The self care completely disappears and it’s only looking back that I can now see it! 😳

wasn’t something I had planned for. It’s definitely been a whirlwind of a year with football, but I’m excited of what’s to come with this group in 2023.
Merry Christmas Rebels! 💛💙 See you at Oxford on Boxing Day 🫡
What. A. Win!
A great turnout from the fans and a huge 3 points against a strong team.
15 unbeaten at home, 5 months…
So proud of the boys, management and supporters that helped us across the line today. 👊🏼💙

I’m grateful for you in so many ways and always will be. Hard as nails on the outside, soft as shit in the middle. You’ve supported me as a Dad, a mate, a critic, but also my number one fan, far and wide, from Germany to Sholing. Love Ginge 💙 x
If the majority of players in non league had a night out planned tonight I can assure you they’d get there… By trains, planes or automobiles, whatever it takes! 😆 Why games are getting called off is beyond me 🤯 Ridiculous!
Great day spent
@ManCity
talking to the 16’s, 18’s and 23’s on the dangers of gambling. First class engagement from the players and the staff couldn’t have been more welcoming. We hope you enjoyed the sessions. Good luck for the rest of the season ✌🏼

😀👍🏼
We have all broken lockdown rules in some way or another. However big or small, I guarantee we are all guilty of it. It’s no different from celebs getting their life plastered all over the papers. I know some people that are lucky you don’t have yours publicised the same way 👀
Seen a lot of tweets saying ‘we have to finish the season’ or that this and that team ‘deserve to go up’. The 30,000+ people didn’t deserve to die. Be grateful you can read this tweet. I love how much football means to people, me included. A promotion is great, but it’s not life.
