Redtrojan replied to Finley_Smith10's topic in Football Chat
Derby are not the Derby of the 1970’s -
Huddersfield Town at home match thread
Redtrojan replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
City 13/10 on bet 365 looks pretty generous on current form. -
Yes it was a dump,but I have mainly good memories of it compared to the crap that was going to Bath to watch the derby games ,when Nigel Martin usually ensured we had nothing to celebrate. At Eastville I can so easily remember that 1-4 victory ,the infamous 1-0 down 2-1 up cup game(possibly my favourite ever),and the many and varied shenanigans associated with derby day and the precarious walk back to near Stapleton road station where my dad usually parked the car. I liked going to Eastville and although we haven’t played them much since they left ,the mem i associate with watching Bristol(rugby),is nowhere near the same. Glad I saw those times ,happy days.

Cardiff City at home match thread
Redtrojan replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
Very reminiscent of the S’OD,days ,for those of a certain age Joe Burnell would look like an outrageous maverick in this side. -
Your memory is poor ,as he didn’t attempt to trip him ,he did actually trip him ! Paul Hartley wasn’t very impressed as I remember.

Saw wales v west Germany in Cardiff in 1976,the kaiser scored in a 2-0 victory. Just looked at the team sheet on internet,a good few of that great west German side we’re playing that night,surprised they didn’t win by more.

He really did leap like a Salmon...

Did the double over Arsenal that year. Also vital wins home to Leeds and Liverpool in the last 5 or so games set up that classic at Coventry.So lucky to have been around to see those few seasons in the promised land.Disappointing to think so many on here have not had the opportunity. -
Xmas day games finished in England in 1965 and in Scotland in 1971 My dad tells me he always went and they were very popular. Different times I guess.

Redtrojan replied to spudski's topic in All Things Ex Players and Managers
I reckon I saw all all of the home goals and about a third of the away. So many on here don’t think a bit of height up front is useful……I think it’s essential. Gives the defence one more thing to think about and cover ,as long as the team doesn’t resort to lazy long ball lumping. Loved the Cheese ,what a gun forward he was. -
Is Scott still injuried

I hope we did,no actual confirmation of the exact fee. -

Now Max getting a chance to join in the mediocrity . So many parts of the team need improving if we want to do more than just stay up. -
Rotherham away match thread
Redtrojan replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
The ref suits the teams ,they are all putting in a dreadful performance. This is likely to end 1-0 ,just not sure who to. -
Rotherham away match thread
Redtrojan replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
I am struggling to remember a less physical City team in my time .Little height ,no nasty aggressive b***ger ,every team needs some feisty players. I wouldn’t mind if the skill level was top drawer,but this has been so poor. Time for Conway. -

On sky red button as well ,froze just before the goal!!! just seen that one though. -
No ,they are well paid professional athletes and will be fine by Tuesday.

Cornick reminds me a lot of David Clarkson ,not fast ,not very good in the air and not particularly skilful.But every so often he does something good. David Clarkson was a disappointment overall unfortunately .I think I’ve seen enough now to suggest Cornick is likely to follow a similar trajectory . Be nice to be proved wrong,but not expecting it. The more worrying thing ,is with limited funds we really need our recruitment to be spot on,the scatter gun days are behind us.

Swansea City away match thread
Redtrojan replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
I have no idea how we’re going to do today. We seem a bit of a toothless mess at the moment and the Swansea win odds of 11/10 look like an easy way to more than double your money………..however away from home we can chuck in a Millwall like performance and look decent. Overall a lack of a cutting edge makes a draw probably our best outcome, although those Swansea odds look very tempting to ease the pain of another defeat should it happen!
