  1. Covering all bases, just in case.
  2. No idea if I count as silent, or a majority. Under manning, to date, the football has been pretty awful to watch, slow, predictable, and not adjusted to compensate for the many weaknesses in the squad. We don’t have anyone who is good as a lone striker, and no idea why we are playing Knight in a forward, nondescript role. He might come good, but equally, if he left tomorrow, I wouldn’t be sorry.
  3. I’d prefer not to spend big this window, January signings can be over-priced desperation signings. We look reasonably safe, and it would take a lot of money to be anywhere near promotion standard, with no guarantee of success.
  4. Hate to spoil the Fleetwood bashing, but the slump is mostly related to off field problems, and the Chairman being jailed for fraud
  5. Felix, the famous Huddersfield station cat, died this week.
  6. How did you know? Used that from work pre-Covid, always trying to use a HST set
  7. It was a Class 165 Turbo set. Most GWR 158 sets are 2 carriages, usually running as a pair. Just looked it up, set 165112 I’ll get my anorak
  8. Top top top top top top top post
  9. That’s really saying something
  10. It ain’t what they do it’s the way that they do it
  11. That was a late sub appearance against Hampton & Richmond in August (I was there). Not appeared since then, and not on the bench at Braintree yesterday
  12. Well worn path, spend money you don’t have, fail, massive cutbacks, relegation.
  13. Or we could ‘go for it’ and take the well worn path to League One…
  14. Think I’ll take stability with SL ahead of an unknown owner, spending big and crashing even bigger. We’ve only just recovered from the last mad spending spree, and look to be on the right track with the Academy. Rather be stable in the Championship than broke with the Gas
  15. It’s Welsh Government money, in the form of a loan, and seems a far better investment than throwing money at Party Donors in exchange for very little
  16. As confidently predicted on the way back, a thread about Max. He’s been good since coming in, made a rare mistake today, what’s the issue. Happens to all keepers at this level.
  17. So I take it Max is the latest scapegoat, despite some pretty decent performances this season?
  18. Glad you’re not manager! He’s been hugely consistent lately and the one part of the team where there is no concern.
  19. Sadly, after 45 years of watching City, I would not dismiss the flying seats as fantasy.
  20. I think that if I paid for a seat and found it occupied by some self-entitled youth, or my view impeded, I’d be a tad cross. The selfishness of some, and lack of respect for older/ less able fans is really poor. There’s also policing to consider, quite sure the ‘atmosphere’ will involve flying seats at some point. The intentions may be good, but the manner it’s being done is so wrong, and so little respect for other supporters.

    Who?

    Maybe the issue is this constant change of strategy, rather than seeking continuity. We also have to accept that we will always be a smaller Championship side, and don’t have the resources to try and buy promotion. It’s a pity we tried that a few years ago, de-stabilising finances, and meaning the quality youngsters are coming through at a bad time. Doubt NP will be around long now, let’s see if we look for a sensible, long term strategy, or just go for another ‘usual suspect’, as demanded by this Forum.
