Fair result! Point apiece v high-flying Stockport who had majority of possession. Notts under pressure for much of the game but battled, worked sox off w/ quality. Notts 1-0 Robertson strike 10’. Equaliser 81'. Either way in frantic final mins! 4pts in wk. W2 D5 L4. COYP! Avanti!
Fantastic win! 1st H v Owls since 1991. Dominance, hunger, appetite. 1st clean sheet since Wembley. 2-0 does not flatter! 4 or 5 deserved! Weds not a shot on target! Kanu 1st goal pen 38', Lipsiuc's 1st 81' strike from a glorious Finneran pass. Up to 18th. W2 D4 L4. COYP! Avanti!
4th Lg defeat on run. Pattern: resolute defending, little creativity, some fight, nothing on target, concede poor goals 44’ 86’. Heading back down. Poor recruitment, too many injuries. Odd lineup. Next goal/point? Brothers twitchy yet? W1 D4 L4. 23rd. Great support! COYP! Avanti!
Today I'm giving thanks on my 20th Anniversary as Rector of S. Paul's, Deptford, (17 Oct 2006, Feast of S. Ignatius of Antioch). Always glorious & challenging but never dull. Thanks to family, friends, comrades & the faithful for support, prayers, & solidarity. Mass today at 10am

Very sad indeed to read the news of the death of Professor Peter Thomas, (History of Political Thought at Brunel University), one of the great Gramsci scholars. Condolences to all his loved ones, comrades and colleagues.
3rd Lg defeat on run. 1H: Woeful. 0-1 poor Belshaw pass out. 2H: better w/ Sanders, Finneran (90+1 consolation) Tsaroulla on. Hard work no end result. Oxford’s 2nd showed their quality. To stay up must win H games & score goals! Bottom 4 by close? P8 W1 D4 L3. 20th. COYP! Avanti!

As we celebrate the Franciscan Jubilee Year, let us perseveringly ask for the gift of peace and sincerely commit ourselves to building harmony among peoples.

Today — on the eighth centenary of his death — I wish to recall a laborer who worked with great fruitfulness in the Lord’s vineyard: Saint Francis of Assisi, whom Jesus Himself asked to repair His Church.
Lg1 reality check. Back2back defeats. Copy of last week, 1H ok, 2H poor. Conceded 2 moments of Reading quality, Marriott 49', 72'. Notts worked hard, good openings but no final 3rd quality. Who will create / score the goals? Back to drawing board. P7 W1 D4 L2. 20th. COYP! Avanti!
Notts unbeaten start to season ends. No complaints. Battling 1H played well. 2H Bradford much the better team. Notts created almost nothing, were disjointed, not at it, & slightly hit & hope balls. Who will score the goals to win us games? 13th for now. P6 W1 D4 L1. COYP! Avanti!
