Shame, must’ve missed it. Cheers for the reply though.

Were there / are there any free games for season ticket holders this season at the rugby?

There are loads of examples of pro footballers who don’t like football. Carlos Tevez, Battistuta, David Batty, Christian Vieri and Benoit Assou Ekotou are some of the famous ones but there must be hundreds/thousands over the years. Fair play to them as long as they gave their all on the pitch. Millions of people don’t like their job after all.

Was going to say. It’s not as though we’re playing like Barcelona at the moment is it! I wish we had the ‘game management’ to go with the style a la Preston tbh. May have a better chance then. We’re just powder puff at the moment but we have been for years tbf.

No not quite mate. Bit younger than that (first game in 1988 aged 10 so not much mind!) but interesting you think that. Of course we’ve all seen worse and I appreciate that, I appreciate the progress we have made these last few seasons, and those cup runs were great. But we’ve had such fantastic chances these last two seasons especially (forget the last play off for now - too far gone although the pattern is the same) to make real real progress in the league, where it really matters and we haven’t made those final changes to the squad to make a real difference. That’s the frustration. But it’s not over yet this season. We could still do it. But nights like tonight aren’t going to help and there is naturally frustration as a result.

Hear hear. Burton got to the semis of the League cup this season. Millwall are in the 6th round of the cup this weekend. Nice as it was it means absolutely bugger all in the grand scheme of things. League is the bread and butter. Still a chance but it’s fading at the moment. Maybe the break will bring a new winning run.

With respect I’d much rather have done ‘a Pompey’. Recent FA Cup winners, trips to Europe (did they beat AC Milan - can’t remember!) Premiership for a good while and all the good away days and experiences that would’ve brought, then a fall through the leagues admittedly, but pretty much straight back up and the crack of winning again. Give me that any day over what we’ve experienced in the same time period. Fair enough they could’ve languished in Div 3 but they haven’t. Much rather have those days to look back on as a supporter to be fair than what we’ve had.

Very very very poor unfortunately and really unfathomable to be honest. Like the two January transfer windows we’ve had in the last two seasons it’s yet again a massive case of ‘what if’ at the moment. Just a few more points and we’d be flying. Maybe booing is out of order (don’t do it myself) but you pays your money etc. And we’ve been served tripe at home this season. Still fighting though, still in with a chance and 6th as it stands is undoubtedly a fantastic result this far, but home form needs an almighty bastarding jolt from somewhere if we are to have any chance at all of top 6. Still hope.......

I’ve met this bloke a few times and he’s really sound. This sanitisation needs to stop. There’s a kids section for a reason. It’s the football ffs. Getting ridiculous now and City want to be careful I think how far they take this ‘anti social’ behaviour malarkey as they really will be in danger of alienating their core fan base soon. Maybe that’s what they want though. Who knows anymore!

What a blag. Think I’ll give up for the week now!

I did. And Hardline. Oh well. Still well up. For now at least!

Snap! Lovely start to the week!

Going on Friday. Can’t wait. Klassical Dream for me in the first.

Indeed Archie. And I’d suggest all those down as far as Sheff Weds are still in with very much a fighting chance.

You mentioned the draw - not me! Anyway. We all want the same thing tonight. Here’s hoping it happens. Believe it will.
