the red rules

Taking over the 6 to 10am Mon to Frid spot from September 25th.

I haven't listened for years but will probably start. with somebody so enthusiastic about our club and city on. Think it might wind up a few gasheads though.

BBC site has attendance wrong. They've recorded 29,359 which is above capacity. Anybody have the actual attendance and the numbers from Preston? 

23313

I have heard it said we only really appreciate Matty James when he's not playing.

With no rating the Post didn't even seem to realise he was on the pitch.

Seems utterly ridiculous to only give STH 2 days to buy their seat, for a game that's over 4 weeks away & will be a relatively low crowd anyway.

Why..?!

 

They didn't even do that as they didn't reserve any seats. They gave season ticker holders two days to buy a seat before others could.  Admittedly most will have taken their own, but I could have bought virtually any first thing  on Wednesday. So if I fancied an aisle one I could have and it would already have  gone when theactual  sth tried getting it two hours later.

Unfortunately the Cup has been awarded to Scotland , as England fielded an illegible player , as Naisnith is %100 Scottish ! 

He might have an English Granny.

He also said there had been some interest in some of our players that we don't particularly want to move on          I'm guessing that's Scott Weimann and Semenyo.

Would rather be playing on a Friday night rather than Monday. Monday must be the worst day of the week to have a game scheduled for.

Totally agree luckily it something that rarely occurs for us.  I remember having mixed feelings when we were in the playoffs and realised that I would miss quite a lot of non Saturday games if we were promoted.

Am I right in saying it's being aired for free tonight on BT Sport?

 

If so how can I watch it? I neither have BT Sport or am very good with technology.

If a virgin media customer should be free access on bt sports channel 527 for the duration of the match only.

And the England DJ nicked Sweet Caroline from Northern Ireland.

Stick with The Wurzels. Be proud. Be Wurzel!

Yes always associate Sweet Caroline with Norn Iron and the 2016 euros.

Your right my first 2 games were a 2-1 loss to Rotherham and a 3-3 draw with Bury, last 2 games of 66/67 season.      I was however hooked and couldn't wait until the start of the next one. 55 years on fed up and disillusioned at the moment, but I'll still be exited and unrealistically optimistic come August.

 

On reflection just a sad happy clapping b.st..d

Fortunately most young kids going to their first game don't care about the result or the quality of the football!

Not sure if it has been mentioned elsewhere but just a heads up to anyone who parks on the road alongside the Dovecote Inn, now called The Ashton, this week No Parking signs have been erected along the entire stretch, so beware your usual parking spot is no more.

Still the smyth arms to me, there again I've got to start calling the enclosure the lansdown.

Amazing what a win will do, i enjoyed studying all these photos.

Loads of good memories khere but that Mansfield 5-4 away was top for a match I didn't  attend. Before mobile phones, with my mrs broadmead shopping, I would go to the tv department in Debenhams at 4.45 to watch the teletext updates. Down up misery and eventual elation. Me and a few others must have put off any potential tv purchasers. Another favourite was the 3-1 win at Hereford when we were rock bottom of the fourth division 1982. An evening  post Christmas match with all day drinking, many in fancy dress. Every goal was followed by a pitch invasion mostly led by several dr marten clad nuns.

Thought we could have had a good old keystone cop chase with accompanying music.

I just wanted to moan about the role and perceived priorities of the police outside after the game.

Walking along Ashton road by Duckmoor road there were quite a few coppers standing by the zebra as about 4 or 5  escooters, at least 1 double manned, charged straight through the middle dodging several people as they crossed. They were all in high spirits and It looked quite comical with nobody hurt, but could easily have had a different outcome.

There is nobody that gives 'Colin' more dogs abuse than me, from the moment he enters to the moment he leaves the gate.

But I do sometimes wander  'what and if'.

The chant I would like to heard revived is the "BAAAA-RISSS-TOLLL" that used to boom out from the old East End. 

Come on Section 82, get it going

 

Particularly when we play another  'city'  team.

I hope they get a good reception. They were part of the best time of my life supporting City in 17/18 (well, more just 17) ; JB scored the winner against Rovers as a kid ffs, is that not enough? 

Good reception getting off the bus.
