Tinmans Love Child

When he was sacked he was the current manager of the month and they were top before the hammering weren’t they? I still think it was a stupid sacking and unnecessary regardless of whether they go up in playoffs, they were fighting for auto’s under LJ

My mate was at Sheffield Uni 97-99 so when I went up to see him we watched Wednesday in the Prem, they beat Arsenal 2-0 in the year Arsenal won the double (first league title under Wenger I think) and then they beat Man Utd 3-1 in the year Utd won the treble!

https://www.football365.com/news/farewell-quest-treated-efl-just-right-respect-colin-murray-john-nicholson Nice little story on Colin Murray’s EFL programme on Quest, and the move to EFL highlights on itv4 next season. I think Colin has done a great job, he really shows that he gives a sh*t about the lower leagues, does his homework, and I always get the impression if you met him and said who you supported, he would know what’s going on with your team. Hope he moves to ITV4 with the show!

Northampton should have objected when Scunthorpe’s team sheet was read out. Complaining after they didn’t get auto promotion just looks like what it is, which is sour grapes. I assume Northampton wouldn’t have complained on behalf of the integrity of the league if Rovers had only won 6-0 against the same team of teenagers?

This forums so inclusive, a Rovers fan and a Swindon fan mocking each other on a City forum!

And that bloke from Egypt!

I can’t see any of the 3 teams winning anymore games apart from Everton beating Watford, which would keep them safe, and Burnley would stay up via GD meaning Leeds down. Will see what happens!

It’s amazing how much racism is still around, even if the blatant everyday racial slurs have reduced since when I was younger. I worked for one of the Big 4 consultancies until last year, and we had some training on D&I, and some 5 or so grads from Malaysia said that in their first week, one of the trainers said to them all why can’t we just give you all a number as you all look the same!

Just emailed you, don’t know if what I have is of any use but happy to donate!

So predictable! Do people still buy this rubbish? They completely engineered a story, absolutely ridiculous

Is this a wind up? I don’t want to get whooshed!

The Daily Hate is defo the worst

“What’s the best thing about coming from Switzerland?” ”Well the flags a big plus”

This!

I posted this previously, seems an apt post to include again: New kit bingo goes as follows: 1) I don’t like the shade of red 2) I prefer a proper collar cause it looks well smart when I wear it out on the town innit 3) I don’t like the badge position 4) I don’t like the sponsor 5) I never buy the kit anyway 6) It looks cheap 7) It looks tacky 8. I like it 9) I don’t like it 10) Modern kits look crap in XXXXXL 11) I can’t believe they’ve run out of the 3rd goalkeeper kit socks

Agreed, they would be better off selling shirts or whatever in agreement with another retail store and save themselves the hassle and costs of running a shop

I remember going there in my first season 89/90 as a 10 year old, and it was like being on the terraces, you just had to squeeze into the shop and you sort of got moved around by the crowd without moving your feet!

Surely by now there has been some analysis done on how much food and drink is sold on a match day, including how often they sell out, and therefore they can adequately stock all of the outlets based on the expected crowd? I’d also have communication channels with the outlets open at all times (I assume there is somebody in charge of the outlets?) so they can talk to each other and if stocks are running low in one, they can share stock with each other to keep sales going. It’s not rocket science but it’s always seems to be the same.

They had a pop up shop in cabots at Christmas a few years back, I guess rental for a shop in town will be very high so might not be worth it?

During the week when no games on I can’t see an issue with all 3 teams merch out, but on match days for City have all City stuff and match days for Rugby have all rugby stuff, wouldnt take that much effort to sort out surely

Agreed, my daughter was born March 2020 and I had to buy a ‘City Born and Bred’ baby grow from some eBay site as City had nothing much apart from the mini kit, which is crazy really as there’s so much stuff they could stock including clothes, baby bottles, plates and bowls, dummies, bibs, which I’m sure would be a popular range for those with kids or those buying for new parents etc

I was chatting to a friend last week who was in America recently and in the same arena he watched an ice hockey team, and the next day two different basketball teams who played one game in the afternoon and the other team played in the evening, and he said the stadium including the shop completely changed stock and branding depending on which of the 3 teams was playing. He even went in to buy some merchandise for the ice hockey team when one of the basketball teams was playing and they said come back when they play!

I wasn’t sure if the t shirt was being made and sold somewhere, glad to hear they are not!

Did they get them made? Embarrassing!
