Another year, another goal scored from our own half.

Strictly speaking that was 19.6%, but now we're over the hill to 20.4% with the 11th. When does @TheKnowledge_GU intervene to find out the highest number/percentage of injury time goals in a season? #pusb

Still doesn't compare with Juventude's December 1994 run of 10 matches in 12 days. rsssfbrasil.com/tablesr/rs19…

I'll raise you 12 in 16 days!
(Boston United 1963/64)
In all the Pilgrims played 18 games in April to finish the season, a task made more difficult by the fact Sundays were out of the question back then.
This included two weeks that saw games on Mon, Tue, Wed & Thurs...

Asian Cup quarter-final, 2004. Japan 1 Jordan 1. First two Japan kickers Nakamura & Santos missed pens. Japan captain Miyamoto asked Malaysian ref to switch ends & he did. Jordan were 2-0 up then missed 4 pens in a row after the switch, Japan won & went on to win the tournament

@TheKnowledge_GU featured my question about penalty shootouts moving to the other end midway through, but no response has been submitted so far 🤣Maybe this actually was a first.

The big question is is this the shortest time between a coach winning Manager of the Month and getting sacked? Nuno took the award on 10th September and 52 days later is out of a job - one for @TheKnowledge_GU

Torns IF’s international launch is off to a flying start. The award-winning football pages of The Guardian @TheKnowledge_GU have brought our long-range goals to attention: theguardian.com/football/202…

@TheKnowledge_GU a late entry for "footballers with food names"

We’ve selected @OhioStateMSOC’s @Jaxon305 with the 52nd overall pick.

So, @TheKnowledge_GU, has any side got a worse points/distance ratio than Carlisle to Plymouth? 1 point in 10,000 miles seems about as poor a ratio as you can get in the Uk.
Since I wrote this tweet four years ago it's now 1 point from 13 league visits and 10,140 miles of travelling - roughly Carlisle to Adelaide. Can the wait end this Saturday? #cufc

In the @EuropaLeague match I commentated on for @btsport today between Astana & Partizan the captains were the two goalkeepers. I’ve never seen this before - how common is it? One for @TheKnowledge_GU perhaps. Would appreciate any answers.

We know! We know!
Thanks @TheKnowledge_GU and @alasdair_brooks (if this is you - if not, hi)
We'd love to get a home following too now at our new venue this season!
#WFC160 #WanderersWay – at Whyteleafe, South East

Wales Women vs Russia Women kicks off shortly, which reminds me of Peak Niche @TheKnowledge_GU from c.2003

Wonder whether @TheKnowledge_GU @StatsChristian @jonoblain can help me out with this? xitter.cf/johnrodercomm/status/9…
Having been on loan at @LaticsOfficial for first part of season, @ivantoney24 presumably gets a @SkyBetLeagueOne winners medal, now on loan from @NUFC at @SUFCOfficial he can also be promoted via the play-offs. Anyone else done this in @efl ?

For colour, let's add needing to win by 10 clear goals in their final game of the season to lift the title and 'only' managing 8-0. As they say.. you couldn't write the script. footballinbracknell.co.uk/ne…

Dorking Wanderers got 105 in the Ryman South last year. Second. Did win the play-offs though... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016%E…

An interesting story about the very first English player abroad! What a pioneer! Taken from @TheKnowledge_GU’s first book #EnglishAbroad
