I blame the change in kit

On Monday 22nd January, the day before our away fixture at Bristol Rovers, we received a request from BRFC to sell South Stand tickets to home supporters at a discounted price of £10 up until kick off.
This was in an effort to hit the 75% capacity requirement for the match to be classified as a ‘test event’ as part of the opening procedures for the new South Stand at The Memorial Stadium. Despite the short notice, we decided it was right thing to do to support Bristol Rovers with the ‘test event’, and given the circumstances, that our supporters would understand the resulting price disparity.
However, in the days after the game and without consultation, Bristol Rovers have offered a refund to home fans who had purchased tickets at full price in the South Stand. We have made representations to both the EFL and Bristol Rovers proposing the that the same refund should apply to Exeter City supporters who were seated in the South Stand that night.
We are yet to reach a satisfactory outcome with Bristol Rovers but we want to resolve this inequality for our supporters as quickly as possible. As a result, Exeter City Football Club, with the unequivocal backing of the Supporters Trust, will be issuing refunds to all those affected. An automatic account credit for any supporter seated in the South Stand who purchased a ticket at a cost higher than £10 (all age categories apart from under 14) will be processed in the coming days.
For example, a full paying adult who purchased a ticket for £26, will have £16 credited to their ticketing account for future purchases.
We thank supporters for their patience as we have tried to rectify the issue as fairly and quickly as possible.
Sorry didn't realise it had already been posted, but nice to see again

How many home kits have we worn in the last 2 seasons, that weird patchwork one, the Arsenal one, the pin stripe one and then this heritage one, any others?

It's one of those situations though where because there's so many teams fighting for the spot, there's rarely going to be a weekend where none play another one.
It has split a bit now because it was even more open a few weeks ago.
But because of that, going on a good run like that will more often than not catch up on 2-3 of those sides and pass 1-2 more
So are you saying it could happen?

I would say that Nigel and Liam were both responsible for this excellent performance.
"We're both good in our own fields. I'm sure Nige couldn't run and manage a successful counter attacking team, and I couldn't do what he..., well, I could do what he did and I think he knew that, even back then. Probably what spurred him on'

I think he is the next Diedhiou.
Not necessarily as a player, but more because none of our fanbase will be able to spell or pronounce his name.

On that penalty save didn't Basso say after the game something like 'I asked God which way, he said right, I said thank you' or something like that or have I made it up? I used to love the crowd copying the point to the skies behind him, great relationship between player and fans
I knew it apart from it was left not right!
"To be honest many people don't understand or don't believe," the Brazilian, who is a devout Christian, explained to BBC Radio Bristol.
"But I ask the Holy Spirit where they're going to kick.
"He said 'left' and I said 'thank you'. I went to the left side and I saved the ball, so today I was very blessed."

I loved his philosophy on luck. If a journo suggested we were unlucky, Basso would always strongly refute it & say you can't blame things on luck as it suggests your actions don't determine the outcome.
I've no time for organised religion but Basso had a fantastic attitude which was clearly steeped in his faith. When he saved the penalty from Darius Henderson, heck, even i almost believed in a higher power!

8 years before my time but can anyone remember the reaction to the introduction of Red and Yellow cards in 1970?

Is this how you old ones used to listen to the football every week??
I listened to the Bristol derby in the 89/90 season on the radio, the one we lost I thin 1-0 at Twerton, was horrendous!

I thought we played well enough and easily matched Forest but as many have said, we didnt have the quality where it matters. I thought the Cuty fans were great all night and kept supporting the team, Forest fans were very quiet, I can't remember hearing a chant!

Hi all,
A Forest fan in peace. I’m looking forward to the game tonight, it should be a good old fashioned cup tie with no VAR to ruin the match. I see some are speculating on injuries - we’ve got a few. We are down to one striker, Wood with Callum Hudson Odoi on the wing. MGW I believe is still injured, Elanga is out and of course Awoniyi. We’ve also lost 6 players to AFCON. Other than that, we can’t defend and all our goalkeepers are crap. Nuno will play a strong team, mainly cos we don’t have much option. Probably 4231:
Turner
Montiel - Omabamidele - Murillo - Tavares
Yates - Mangala
CHO - Danilo - Dominguez
Wood
I have fond memories of BC matches - the 2 v 1 win in our promotion season is the moment we started to believe something special was happening. Lyle Taylor had his only good match for us and his penalty gave every Forest fan a heart attack. Good luck and let’s hope for a rip roaring entertaining FA Cup tie.
I don't have fond memories of that 2-1 win, I literally couldn't believe what I was watching!

Longest-serving Manager
The longest-serving manager in Nottingham Forest’s history is Frank Clark. He guided the team for over seven years and etched his name in the club’s folklore.
Great MDT as per, but wasn't Clough the longest serving manager at 18 years?

Yes but the huge extra revenue from the thousands buying tickets for the state of the art new stand means they can start paying millions in fees.
All the extra shirt sales with Cont eh? In the back
