Following the Shaymen: Wall of Sound

http://followingtheshaymen.blogspot.com/2012/02/wall-of-sound.html

Thursday, 23 February 2012. Obviously, this really is a football blog of mine, and nearly as obviously, it's quite dormant at the moment due to a more hectic life. As with most people, things outside of football often stun, inspire and incense me at least as much as on/off-pitch shenanigans do, but for more personal reasons this matter catches my attention. After 25 years of trading, Wall of Sound has now closed. A massive thank you to all who have supported me and shared my love of music. LP And unlike ...

Following the Shaymen: Hinckley United 3 – 2 Halifax Town; 10/09/11.

http://followingtheshaymen.blogspot.com/2011/09/it-takes-some-thinking-to-reflect-on.html

Sunday, 11 September 2011. Hinckley United 3 – 2 Halifax Town; 10/09/11. Hinckley United 3 – 2 Halifax Town; 10/09/11. That sound you hear is Lynne Truss screaming. It takes some thinking to reflect on summat like this, and I'm not going to claim to have each solution to every problem dealt out from a neatly-stacked deck of strategies. For the benefit of the hapless reader of FTS, let's go through the whole wreck of today and pick things out from the rubble. You should try to score those six goals. Tell ...

For the interested Town fan, there's the elevate...

Super Town of course, managed 20th that season, honourable given the awfulness of the situation, but were liquidated. So–! Altrincham retain a lifelong rivalry with the locals at Macclesfield Town. Fortu...

http://followingtheshaymen.blogspot.com/2012/01/vauxhall-motors-1-3-halifax-town-210112.html

Sunday, 22 January 2012. Vauxhall Motors 1 – 3 Halifax Town; 21/01/12. Vauxhall Motors 1 – 3 Halifax Town; 21/01/12. 163;3 student. Excellent! One of the two clubhouses at Rivacre Park, this being the dry (and therefore deserted) one with '70s caravan décor. I somehow doubt this TV blasts out Soccer Saturday but it's worth remembering your roots sometimes. St Juste breaks into area, Phelan covers. More match "action.". Ellesmere Port and district that we've met, but much of this game was lacking. Halifax...

http://followingtheshaymen.blogspot.com/2011/09/halifax-town-1-5-vauxhall-motors-170911.html

Wednesday, 21 September 2011. Halifax Town 1 – 5 Vauxhall Motors; 17/09/11. Halifax Town 1 – 5 Vauxhall Motors; 17/09/11. I'm writing this on the Wednesday, having seen Town take on Guiseley the night before. It's odd how that's happened, as I felt like writing this report as soon as I got home from the match, but even by the morning after I was pretty much speechless. From then on we were heads-down and didn't allow ourselves to make any semblance of a comeback. Our defense stopped short of rolling ...
