  6. Attendances were down all over the country in the early 80s. Even at the Sags who, at one point, we’re getting lower crowds than us when they were a division above. 36 years later and they haven’t managed to get themselves a division above us since.

  7. I bet he was telling the young girls all about the 40,000 crowds they get at the Mem every week. And I bet the young girls were thinking “piss off grandad, even we know your average home crowd is roughly the same as the population of Frampton Cotterell”

  9. Saw quite a few Plymouth fans in various service stations Northbound and Southbound over the weekend. Fair play to them for doing that trip.

  11. Danny Greaves (Jimmy's son) played for them, I think? Actually it must have been Southend game, as he appears to have never played for Millwall.

  13. They never cease to amaze me with the amount they take, they`ve got 80+ miles to go before they even really get anywhere yet they still take 750 or so to somewhere like Accrington on a Tuesday night. The travelling they have to do was summed up for me in our League 1 promotion season. If Swindon had gone up with us and Argyle had got promoted from League 2 (both of which were distinct possibilities with a couple of games to go) their closest game the following season in League 1 would have been Walsall!

  14. Think how annoying it will be for them if they remain unbeaten for the remainder of the season. Only to find those above them have as well so that Rovers are relegated with a record number of points!

  15. I've wondered if this is the case Dave. Dealing with one club on isolation could make a rod for their own back. Hit Brum really hard creates a precedent and what if; say, Villa announce eye watering losses? If they give the same penalty as Brum; then Birmingham would be up arms. Treat Villa more severely; say an even more swinging points pebalty; it could put them in danger of relegation and you would probably then see Villa getting lawyers Involved. I thought one of the reasons for using projected year 3 figures was so that they would all be available at the same time - irrespective of club's actual financial year end. Perhaps the reason for The ELF addressing Brum now is that they have been managing their finances under the eye of the EFL since their embargo.

  19. Went there boxing day 1987, a load of us in fancy dress. COLD? Bugger me it was lucky we were pissed! The days of away 'cages' in the bad old days. A word of advice to the young 'uns, don't wear a toga to an away game on boxing day!

  21. I believe the German Alz Heimer has created that but also I think a Spaniard Senor Dementia can do the trick. not sure about the mamories after googling it seems that all experiments have gone tits up.

  22. Given their huge reputation for having such loyal and true fans, I feel like they'd get incredibly offended at a simple 'your support is f*****g s**t'.

  24. It is far too late this evening to reply in detail to your amusing post, although I have read (and enjoyed) Mary Jackson's article - Lynne Truss wrote a similarly humorous and interesting book. As a matter of principle, however, I am tempted to insist that, in so far as it concerns the late Sir Bernard Lovell, and especially in the context of the book extract quoted, it may (as opposed to might) well be considered pedantic to argue whether he was an astronomer or an astrologer.

  25. Being correct is not pedantry. One is an evidence based, peer reviewed science, the other is a snake oil salesman. Next time you’re in The Three Lions why not buy a copy of my new book, ‘Which Tyler, and the Pedant’s Revolt.’ Price 1 pint?

  26. 2 things - is the young lad unhappy at being pictured shaking the hand of a young Lembit Opik or, wearing that hideous polyester training top that could combust at any moment of physical activity?
