  1. Thanks ever so much for the advice, much appreciated
  2. Morning I’ve been to the Hawthorns a few times but I’ve only ever driven. Unfortunately I can’t go next weekend so my son (17) has decided he’s going to drive with his friend. Unfortunately he only passed his driving test a couple of weeks ago and has never driven on a motorway, I don’t think a trip to/from the West Midlands is the best way to learn to drive motorways. he says that the club coaches are full, so what I wanted to ask is what’s it like by train? Getting to New Street is easy, but how do you get to the ground? Is it walkable, are there buses or trains? I tried to work it out but couldnt anyone able to advise?
  3. Yes, we went to those, things I remember other than Carl’s goal, going through the away turnstiles and joining the home fans the other side (with flower beds) walking around the back of the stand to a terrace that took up half of the end, with home fans the other half. There was a cage tunnel in between and a white line painted on the floor about 6 foot from the cage. The coppers warned us if we crossed the line they’d not only throw us out, they’d put us in with the Aldershot fans for a few minutes first! not sure they did though
  4. Now I’m torn...Saturday at the gate or at Winterfield?
  5. I guess if you’re double jabbed you can feel a lot safer about covid. They should maybe worry about all the other disease he’s bringing to the club and keep away a bit
  6. https://amp.theguardian.com/sport/2021/aug/07/german-modern-pentathlon-kim-raisner-coach-thrown-out-of-tokyo-olympics-for-punching-horse-annika-schleu Doubt she’ll get to Mansfield in time for kick-off though
  7. Lampard on his way, Wallies Chelsea connection paying off, John Terry as his assistant and Tammy Abraham signing in the summer
  8. Superb, congratulations to all but especially Mr Landsdown
  9. Pitch at the Mem looks in better nick than recent times
  10. But, if we don’t build up enough of a herd immunity this thing could return in the Autumn
  11. I don’t want ‘em coming here!!!!!
  12. Looks like the atmosphere was really in tents (I suspect it’s not the first time that jokes been used)
  13. Was browsing the gas forum for giggles and saw the ‘quid a kid’ topic, didn’t read it but assume it’s a thread about the new striker they are signing
  14. Yes, went up on coach from Plough and Windmill, got there at 5:30, got very messy
  15. Bradford is my favourite too, what was the name of that pub we took over?
  16. I want a tee shirt with this on for Saturday (we'll 3, son and nephew will want one too)
  17. I wonder if there's still a contract between Rovers and Bristol Rugby? Would make me chuckle if as a result of losing appeal Rovers go into administration and Bristol Rugby pick Mem up for £1.00
