Went out for smoke and returned to find ' 53 new replies ' !!! Could only mean one thing Cmon boys

Yep 9000 for a midweek trip !! Biggest City away following ever (Save For Wembley) ? Coventry ? Amazing night - truly electric atmosphere !!!

Dopey will be out of a job soon Only a matter of time before the new owners appoint a 'name' Ha ha

There is an argument for that but t no points for MK fine by me - as long as three are below us come May

Blimey - got to think fate is smiling on us for a change Burnleys and Readings winners both came in 2nd minute of Injury time Blackburns came in the third of injury time

Wow What a great result and a crazy afternoon with all the games relevant to us had goals flying in everywhere !!!! What a great outcome Think we looking safeish now

Could have been a cracker beating three men in the process Does it matter - Can't you just be pleased for the lad (And DJB) - he's one of OUR young players trying to develop his career Very supportive NOT For what it's worth I understand a diving header

Corrected that for you

As an interesting comparison I also e-mailed Mr Higgs at the Minimal He confirms their plans are also progressing well and like MA was kind enough send me an artists impression

In case anyone was wondering what they looked like (MA just emailed me this and says it also demonstrates the ' pathway forward ' (I think the 'step' idea is a new twist with the appointment of Lee)

While the brickies are constructing the 5 pillars can we ensure at least one of them concentrates on the actual building aka ' First team squad ' Sounds like a job for Moxy, Bomber, Nev n Co.....

What does concern me is who is going to get the goals to keep us up Bryan, Ayling, Freeman, Pack , Reid zero goal threat JK raw and seems to have stalled a bit (Asking too much in his first season ?) Wilbs - a season too far ? KA ? Wes - Young and acclimatising Cant see where we are gonna get a goalscorer from at this stage hmmmmm

First shot on target pfffffff Fancied us today Still - enough time left COYR

Ha ha My eyesight is ***** and if I had a quid for every time I'd had a change in blood pressure as a result of Brechin Bloody City !! Glad I'm not alone

Bolton 2 up on Dongs (Pratleys 3rd goal in a week)

At least Pearce is on bench !!!

Poor ole Greg Cunningham puts thro his own net shame

Suggested that after SCs sacking I could see them playing with a bit of freedom - no slur on SC - just a natural reaction

What a great performance and a wonderful end to the week played with spirit and freedom For first time this season I fancied us to nick it late on not chuck it Respect to all the lads

Been happening every time we concede since September and I've pointed this out several times but been shouted down This side lacks character or characters and a leader or preferably leaders

Roflmao priceless simply priceless

Totally agree and Having listened to SLs interview a couple of times I think he's thinking along similar lines if that gives you some comfort Whether that actually happens........ ( TBF he didn't say nothing was planned - said the management are finalising their wish list which he expects to get soon )

Roll on 20 years and ladies and gentlemen let me introduce you to....... Mr Darrell Dopey Clarke ........

I think it's fair to say you don't 'get it' I don't have a problem with that, you certainly won't be alone in that or disapproval of some of what went on However I don't think you have any hope of any real embarrassment from those who were involved - most have fond and predominantly funny memories of those days - but again I give no hope to you understanding this Theres actually something a bit special when abroad with England having a laugh with lads from other clubs , rival clubs with even a history between the two, having a beer and laugh together knowing they've got your back and you theirs- because you're English (You won't get that either) These are the sort of lads who are the sort that will come to your aid in a back alley in Marseille if you need it next summer. You have now got the sterile football experience that many apparently wanted - it's not for me so much these days - just my personal view - but I don't drone on about the crap,sterile atmospheres at football these days - that's just the way it is - it's a different era Hopefully with the efforts of Section 82 and the Ateyo Lads some decent atmosphere will come back to football, and to keep,everyone happy with limited aggro (I think you are very naive if you think that football will ever be a true 'theatre' the experience - thousands of people , predominantly male in any location - always going to be a bit of male posturing and occasionally a flare up - that's life , not just football) If you don't like the banter - ignore it

You are entitled to your view and are always vocal but consistent on your views re this but Firstly you need to understand football has gone thro many phases and eras and the 60s /70s and 80s were ones where at various times going to football was a 'whole experience' for MANY not just one or two - certainly many City away followings were predominantly lads who liked a beer and a laugh - often it was no more , and sometimes a bit of 'aggro' Most people knew where to draw the line and for all the numbers and games actual proper violence was rare It was a crack and many many people from all walks of life participated to some minor or major degree - that's what happened no one can 'defend' it of course , but it happened, Most never did anything they'd be ashamed of as you suggest we should.... Oh ..... And the away days with your City mates - it was fun , real good fun Some of the 'lads' I knew and still know from City and across the country thro England travels have been the nicest lads I've ever met, loyal as **** and actually real nice top lads. shame you missed out on it !!! I do respect and understand your views tho
