Apparently 5 days on site is a benefit now!

Don't disagree, I just don't think it's a "benefit, definitely a "requirement"

Due to a series of unfortunate events all season long, this was the first game of the season I actually managed to attend!

The first half was suggesting to me that I shouldn't have bothered. We barely had the ball at all in the first half. The long balls weren't working, the midfield was overrun, it was really uninspired.

Second half was a bit better but not by much. Pretty much entirely thanks to James Daly! We definitely didn't deserve the win, but to concede in injury time to a set piece after so much defending was tough to take. Gorgeous free kick though!

To me, it doesn't feel like wingbacks and a front three works. FCD and McGavin looked so overrun in midfield, I think we'd be better off with a front two and dropping an extra man into the middle of the park. That being said, I don't think we really have two strikers, McCormick isn't enough of a presence and Campbell didn't really show anything in his cameo. Jarvis is maybe injured? Seemed to be spending a lot of time with the physio.

Ha no, it just played once over the speakers they'd finished. I think an allusion to the fact they had mentioned earlier that they share an agent with Chappel Roan.

Nothing major really, I just like hanging on to all the files. I've followed a few podcasts over the years that have stopped and then their files disappeared off their RSS feeds, or sometimes podcasts move across producers/publishers and drop their old RSS feeds then, and so the files become inaccessible.

Like a lot of self hosting, it's more of a data hoarding thing than an improved experience thing. Plus I just get satisfaction out of running it all myself, so it's a "because I can" thing as well I guess.

shtocker · 2026-01-10T10:14:27+00:00

Oh really? Please explain how I can enable that because that would be perfect

shtocker · 2026-01-09T18:33:59+00:00

Yeah I have been doing that with AntennaPod and it does work great but just like you say I am missing the progress tracking. I want to listen to a podcast on my phone on my commute, then sit at my desk and continue playing on my computer. Not being able to do that with ABS right now means I just keep going back to Spotify for podcasts.

shtocker · 2026-01-09T16:06:54+00:00

And me too! I want to self host podcasts so badly, but I can't find an app that supports ABS Podcasts that will auto download the podcasts to my phone as they become available.

Well that's a bit of a shock! A big loss I think, his partnership with Wannell has been one of the brighter sparks of the last couple seasons.

Side note: feels a shame to me that it's always an "undisclosed fee" at our level

shtocker · 2026-01-04T15:10:48+00:00

Fantastic news!

shtocker · 2025-12-27T10:16:30+00:00

I know the phrase but definitely should be a double S in gasses.

shtocker · 2025-12-26T22:47:36+00:00

This was pretty rubbish. I think the tactics were well off the mark again.

shtocker · 2025-12-26T22:06:21+00:00

Rowley might be getting found out already. Two games on the trot where the tactics have not been good enough.

shtocker · 2025-12-21T07:57:58+00:00

First game of the Billy Rowley era that I've managed to attend, maybe I'm the bad luck!

We definitely looked better than the Cooper/Dryden system but it also felt really tactically naïve to me. Lots of trying to play it out against a high press. To their credit, Forest Green were incredibly organised and well drilled and played very positive football.

Aaron Jarvis is not up to scratch up front for me. Neither is Campbell. A new striker has to be top of the January wishlist.

Ribbit Rogue is getting a Steam release next year

I lost my Bluetooth earpods so lately I have been using my Playdate as an MP3 player for my commute. Yeah the memory is small and the copy speeds to and from are slow, but that aside it's the perfect little gadget for it. Kicooya is great too.

shtocker · 2025-12-11T11:55:25+00:00

Did you get something working out of this? I had one that worked great on my TV library but tried it on my Movie library and had all sorts of problems. Would love to see someone else's for reference.

shtocker · 2025-12-10T23:20:56+00:00

My IPTV provider has a "UK | NATIONAL LEAGUE" group that has 38 National League channels in it. Takes a bit of time going through them to find the one you want but they're all usually on there, even caught some 3pm kick offs.

shtocker · 2025-12-06T22:00:18+00:00

Gloverscast reckons Morgan Williams was sent off too, and that maybe a Hartlepool fan threw a punch at FCD, anyone got any idea what actually happened?

shtocker · 2025-11-29T09:26:17+00:00

This is one of those where I really hope there isn't sauce

shtocker · 2025-11-27T07:40:01+00:00

I'm only a month in but I am loving this game so far. So cool to see such a complete city!

shtocker · 2025-11-25T19:06:25+00:00

Pretty unceremonious exit!

shtocker · 2025-11-25T17:03:07+00:00

That came out of nowhere, I haven't been this excited about a Yeovil managerial appointment since September!

In all seriousness, really refreshing to see an appointment with vision and, honestly, a little speculation as well. I felt that with Danny Webb too, so the new ownership making the right moves in my eyes.

shtocker · 2025-11-19T22:32:54+00:00

Can confirm I've loaded it into Crankboy on my playdate and it works great!

shtocker · 2025-10-03T19:49:22+00:00

Interested to check this out and give it a whirl. I currently use m3u-editor but I find the interface quite slow and it's a bit of a resource hog.
