Yep after the final whistle. Think he went up to the ref and said something. Bolds was head in hands

Trump: ”If somebody is doing a bad job and if I feel there's unsafe conditions, I would call Gianni, the head of FIFA, who's phenomenal, and I would say, let's move it to another location. And he would do that,"

FIFA / Infantino = MAGA lapdog.

Frustrating night. Started really well but Ossett scored at crucial times. We switched off for their equaliser. They kept battling. Not many chances. Clements' sending off after final whistle will cause us problems. Ref never seemed in control. Good #PatheticCasuals attendance.

Steeple Sinderby FA Cup news....

View from the Allotment End @vftae.bsky.social · 10d

Where are Steeple Sinderby in the @EmiratesFACup today? In a literary quirk, JL Carr did not have a 4R Qualifying, and so they go straight into the draw for the 1st Round Proper on Monday 👌

Cheers Jan. Really glad you've enjoyed it. Would love to give THE poster of that world cup a Ferriby makeover. Amazing graphic with so much energy.

Darren's done the fab Olly Reed ones. Am sure I can get some. Can do the logo ones too.

Was so excited to have a nosy around @bpafcofficial.bsky.social's former Park Ave ground during the week, and what remains of the old covered terrace behind the goal. So evocative. Painted floodlight concrete blocks, counted c. 41 steps, toilet block & pre-decimal pricing.

The Ferriby lads were on fire last night. Kept 12 match unbeaten BPA at bay. Game of few chances but we pushed well in the 2nd half. Charlie Clements once again added another dimension. Stars across the pitch and we kept up the tempo. Most enjoyable night.

Game of two halves, today. Absorbed pressure in the 1st w/ top defence and were class in the 2nd. Charlie Clements was inspired coming off the bench. Top performance all round especially Sam Aynsley, Louis Kirk, Josh Whiteley and some fancy footwork from Lewis Dennison. 💚

It's Steeple Sinderby FA Cup action today...

View from the Allotment End @vftae.bsky.social · 25d

Steeple Sinderby are away to Tampling Athletic, from the Southern Prem, in the FA Cup 3rd R Qualifying. They take 4 coaches. Tampling fans "bellowed disbelief at incompetence" as they went down 0-3. Here's some of the action. Goals from unknown, Sid Swift and R. W. Hutton.

Football Fanzine Culture @fanzinefc.bsky.social · 29d

Today's #FanzineoftheDay is one of the big Sheffield Wednesday fanzines, Spitting Feathers. Some things never change, we join the gang in a dudgeon with Danny Wilson sacked and the club seemingly in freefall. You're still in the premier league lads, just but lighten up a bit!

For tonight's Ferriby game it's got to be this by @bobpetesarah.bsky.social @rockingbob.bsky.social. Rare opportunity for apt lyrics

There's a fixture on Friday night
I hope it won't rain
Gonna be there for 7:45
Will I see you again?

Though, we're not at Halifax.
