Warwickshire Red

Apart from Anglo Scottish cup game v Patrick Thistle in Glasgow in the late 70s, this was my first game I saw after moving back to Bristol.

Remember was in the Rovers enclosure with my City scarf on and being asked “ are you drunk or something?”

Brilliant day!

Can someone explain to me how a hypothetical arena and a stadium for them are the same thing? Surely the footprint / floor space of an arena is far too small for a football pitch? 

Maybe they’ve given up all hope for playing in the EFL and going to join the 5 a side league instead....

Here's a nice distraction. The UK Top 30 singles chart on 26th April 1977, the last time we won a League game at Loftus Road, http://www.officialcharts.com/charts/singles-chart/19770424/7501/

So, "going in with my eyes open",  "have I the right" to expect a win? City, "you don't have to be a star," but "don't stop" til you get a win? "Oh boy", "gimme some" wins and play "free" and LJ won't be a "lonely boy"!

We don't wanna be "rock bottom". City fans, "stick together" and"enjoy yourself" but if "red light spells danger", you could be saying "good morning judge".

"I might be lying",  but "Knowing me, knowing you" we'll stick "together".

I have a feeling we'll sneak this, maybe 1-0.

Positive noises coming out of the camp following last week's result so fingers crossed we can take advantage of Leeds weakened line-up.

An LJ talking to at HT, more energy and a comeback second half (hopefully).  

We really could do with the 3 points to regain the momemtum and put Saturday well and truly behind us though a draw wouldn't be a bad result.

Apparently Villa not playing too well recently despite winning at Boro, so if we have the energy, I'll go for 2-1 to City. 

Have to say that Barry Douglass’s deliveries were top quality. Hit post from one free kick, scores from another and superb free kick at the end. Shows what a quality dead ball specialist can do. Would love if we could get a player with that sort of quality delivery.

Derby look like the real competition for 2nd place.  They're keeping the pressure on.

Game not over yet though and I'd still fancy Ipswich to get a draw.

Can we replace Johnson with Owers please.

Owers certainly talking a lot of sense. Really good co-commentary.

Team - Fielding; Little, Ayling, Flint, Williams, Bryan; K.Smith, Pack, Freeman; Agard, Wilbraham.

Subs - Richards, Cunningham, Tavernier, Saville, Elliott, Wagstaff, Emmanuel-Thomas.

With 27 and 37 goals to score, really?????

I agree it's not going to happen but not mathematically impossible yet (which was the claim).

mathematically certain of playoffs now, even if we lost the rest...not that I'm expecting that!

Nope - need 1 more point. Rochdale/Bradford could get 83.

If results stay the same, then we are guaranteed a play-off place!

 

Boring, I know, but....

 

Sorry, I have just seen that Cornish Branch has said the same thing.

 

And, if results stay the same, 'only' 4 more wins guarantees promotion.

 

Still boring, but....

Technically, we'd need 1 more point as Bradford and Rochdale have 11 games left/33 points available + 50=83 points, though on massively inferior GD. But not mathematically guaranteed yet  Will be very soon though. 

If SL decided he was willing to open his cheque book big time, I'd like him to try to persuade Martin O'Neill.

In reality I know this is pie in the sky so would be happy with Dave Jones.
