100% I'm sure it held 4-4.2k not so long ago.

That is the stand capacity, it isn't the capacity for what the SAG allow in there

I'm sure those away supporters visiting us now can thank our visitors from South Wales for that

Such a shame, especially when you consider the fantastic home support the team has had this year. 

I would be surprised if we keep similar numbers the "Lioness" impact and "named" opposition clearly added thousands to crowds

@BigTone there's a possibility our meeting will be moved after what I said as it clashes with another event that's not been announced yet

But as above @shahanshahan will advise when it will be

As you’ve just done by the way, if you disagree with a post, view or opinion then why not offer a response? I didn’t use the ‘P’ word and those two games did actually happen earlier this season which is a fair and valid response to the main point of the CNG post.

You know exactly what I mean, it's yet another Manning Vs Pearson diatribe

During that excellent showing in the early stages of this Oxford season we put nine past them over two games. Still one of the football worlds biggest ever mysteries why we then decided to swap our coaching team for theirs???

Do we really have to detail yet another thread FFS!! 

Talking about Taunton I see former Rovers CEO Martin Starnes has got involved with them this week, they must really be desperate 

Joey Barton will be pleased

Ben Acey number 11 for Taunton, on loan from City. Looked alright and has something about him, but difficult to make an assessment in such a poor game of football. 

How was he able to play after getting sent off on Saturday? 

Weston drew this evening with a stoppage time goal, with 4 games this week they'd planned to play a weaker side this evening, and go with the strongest available for the last two games. 

Was an interesting game in the NWCFL this evening. Bury FC were looking for promotion back up the ladder after restarting a phoenix club. 

They had been due to play Padiham at Gigg Lane on Saturday but it got called off at lunchtime on Saturday, so to guarantee the game got played tonight their "home" fixture got moved to FC United of Manchester

A crowd of 3521 watched them lose 2-1

If Bury had won this evening and Saturday they'd win the league. 

Now it goes down to the last game of the season 

Top of the league are Wythenshawe with 92 points (GD +63)

Second are Wythenshawe Town also with 92 points (GD +48)

Bury FC are third with 91 points (GD +59)

Saturdays fixtures 

Ramsbottom (18th) Vs Bury FC (3rd) 

Squires Gate (21st) Vs Wythenshawe (1st) 

Wythenshawe Town (2nd) Vs Skelmersdale (24th)

Their trajectory is a bit like Yeovil’s.

Disappointed to see them go down. Their training ground is here in Chippenham - it’s also used for youth football, my son plays there a lot and often interacts with the players. So we have a bit of an affinity with them here.

Both eventually found themselves where they ultimately belong?

Proper club and proper football ground. Looking forward to it. Good to see Pack doing well.

Fought hard to basically start from scratch after being completely financially mismanaged

Nothing is free Robbored. But some people may pay £40 annual subscription for Sky Sports, Robins TV, Netflix, Amazon etc etc.

Yeah that's basically a Firestick, Apple TV, Chromecast, etc. You plug them in and they give you access to all of your subscriptions, which you still have to pay for. They've been around for about 10 years by now I'd imagine.

They're handy if you have an old TV with no apps on, or if you want IPTV or something.

Not exactly true they are available freely now

This very important question has been asked many times on here already  

A thread was started in Feb 2023 by @Jerseybean and had lots of suggestions for some great pubs.

Unfortunately I can’t seem to be able post the link to it here (maybe someone else can?) but it was a thread for ‘best pubs for away fans’ as per photo below

Will he mention his time here?  Could be worth a listen, amazing to think we binned him off and he's now top scorer.

On the basis he only played 4 games for us, he'd do well to remember a game he played for us

Rather than many with rose tinted glasses pining for him & thinking we messed up by letting him go, he didn't exactly set the world alight when he was here and rather it was an opportunity HE missed.

Good luck to him, sometimes it just doesn't work out. I would like to think that he used the disappointing experience he gained here to re double his efforts elsewhere. It certainly should make for a lucrative transfer for him this summer.

Exactly this, I am amazed so many don't realise he was a different player when passing through

Anyone that wants to get a decent position I'd advise leaving the game at least 5-10 mins early. 

I wouldn't bother rushing, due to the lack of an end of season awards evening the club have so far not mentioned that after the game there will be all the awards that we've been voting on being presented 

Then the players will walk around the pitch, once everyone is outside The Wurzels will start in the fan village 

They won't be on stage for a long while 

Additionally I'm not sure if there's anything to see on stage, make sure you're near a bar / toilet

Sorry to be pedantic but you could renew the morning of the first home game and still renew in time

Phantom, are you a genius? Let me ask another question. Does the fact there is so much football on TV every night make you more or less excited about watching City's one or two games a week live? Answers like Robbored and 22A are different but offer their opinions, whereas yours.....

I have no interest in any other team than us, I couldn't care less who is on or not and how often

No need to worry about what everyone else is doing
