Gutted.

12th is top half!

I feel their pain. We will never win the Watney Cup again.

Can I get back to you on that?

Football grounds are full of middle aged blokes shouting 'come on then' from a distance of 100 yards behind several lines of police, I don't think Millwall are any different in that respect. My cousins on my mum's side are pretty much evenly split between Palace and Millwall and with the exception of one of the Millwall (I was with him in the open end at Ashton mid80s? where it went absolutely mental ) most of them are just your normal everyday blokes who like football and follow their local team. They definitely do attract a 'type' though, I've been to Millwall games with cousins and ended up talking to several 'geezers' with strong mockney accents who turn out to be from Slough, Hertfordshire, Basingstoke and the like. They aren't the only ones Rangers, Chelsea and West Ham do and on the other side of the coin I've bumped into a few weapons at Celtic over the years. If you think about it logically, Andrew Tate must get his followers from somewhere

I like your confidence.

I thought I read- possibly on here- that , in the case of something like a football stand, temporary just means it can be moved if required. So if we wanted to take it to any new stadium that we may be moving to/talking about building/releasing a picture showing what it 'could' look like for the Evening Post to put on the front page, then we could take it with us.

I had missed that. It was of course 'The Bountyhunter'. I seem to remember Gary Penrice's tash coming in for some stick.

That was a great fanzine. I remember seeing the Mansfield poster/cover and it taking me far too long to work out what it actually said.

That's what I'm worried about!

Please don't joke about things like that.

I'd have that over The ******* Wurzels any day.

I honestly do want to stay at the Mem , for reasons I have said so on here before, although as the fruit market is fairly central I could have been happy with it. I've stopped worrying about behind the scenes stuff long ago and just enjoy a weekend with mates and occasionally seeing a good game- which tbf we have seen a few of lately. Sometimes I do think though 'FFS really?' . I have lost count of the number of new grounds proposed and promised, we must hold some kind of record.

Yes, and improvements have definitely been made. I mean, we almost , but not quite, broke our transfer record, and we talked for a couple of years about building a new stadium that had almost started to get me to believe it might happen. I blame the ref.

No, we're still coming, just not down the Feeder And we maybe slightly late.

I'm disappointed that so many have given up the fight. That competition needs sustained attendances of less than 100, then there may be a -slim- chance, that we get listened to. Unfortunately (in my opinion) football's fanbase is changing and the matchday experience is becoming a very different thing, although I do accept that this may well be one some people want. To go slightly off topic, I still find it absolutely incredible, that many Champions league games are played in front of less fans to allow bigger advertising boards, I mean, FFS take that in for a second, what on earth is going on there? The one thing that hooked me as a youngster and I suspect did most people- certainly of my age, was the atmosphere at a game and the advent of things like B teams with a separate identity taking part in senior fixtures does,in my opinion, devalue the whole matchday experience. We are fighting a losing battle of course, but that still doesn't mean you should roll over and have your tummy tickled.

1184 too many.

I've spent all night trying to come up with a witty post about how many Tillsons in a Clarke-Harris and now this! I blame the ref.

Prove there is then

Well obviously I turned off pretty quickly after the goal.

I watched this on TV and the cameras were shaking. I don't think it matters what level a match is, when the atmosphere is rocking, its a very special feeling.

I'm surprised and a bit disappointed to see people encouraging your club - and you are by no means unique in this- to limit away allocations. I always thought part of the atmosphere at games was helped by a big away following. Be careful what you wish for , one day you'll be sitting in a sterile stadium, loud music blaring over the PA and a total lack of edge about any game.

I remember the BCC councillor who turned up to a meeting in a City shirt during a discussion on planning proposals for Rovers new stadium- don't ask me which one, I've lost count on that one- incredibly unprofessional but it had no bearing on the outcome whatsoever. I would imagine plenty of councillors support one or the other (glad that they do) , but the perception by some City fans that BCC is pro Rovers and by some Rovers fans that is pro City really simply isn't true. The same goes for the imagined bias of the Evening Post and Radio Bristol. I spend a bit of time in Glasgow where fans of Celtic and Rangers accuse organisations of bias toward one team or the other and fans of Partick and Queens Park accuse them of bias towrds the old firm. I suspect the same accusations get made in Sheffield, Liverpool, Stoke, Birmingham etc etc. Mind you, just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they aren't out to get you

Ahem, I'll have you know , one had to qualify for the Watney Cup by being one of the top two scoring sides in one's relevant division ! Clearly Ashton Gate was the home of dull 0-0 draws and scrappy 1-0 wins back then whereas, as the old saying went, Eastville for entertainment

Have you ever won the Watney Cup though?
