  1. That was a great night around 6k there , and others mentioned Coventry , Chester etc but my best away day goes back to my first away day many years ago , and although includes some ‘aggro ‘ it was just mind blowing and I thought all games would be like this in October 1971 only about 13 I guess a friend called early on a Saturday and said they were going to go to Swindon did I want to go , wouldn’t happen now but just said sure and we caught a bus to temple meads , just got on and went , basically all morning train after train went with hundreds at a time on , I guess looking back we had a couple of thousand there , we got there and piled out of the station, shouting and chanting, as we emerged , around 200 Swindon came running up the road , I had a moment of worry then a huge roar and a huge mob of City went past me steaming in and Swindon ran for their life , City were everywhere , we took over the Town End , as we did every time in those years , and won 1-0 to cap it off , got the bug that never went away that day , great memories
  2. Was also at the game , god you’re miserable , great day out , great result and a very good performance , 16 shots , 6 on target says we went for it , both sides looking to attack so obviously some worrying moments , the spirit is fantastic well done lads Also got to say our fans were brilliant today from minute one , never shut up , worth adding especially away but at home too the players and fans are building a bond that is helping everyone. PS. All the Peterborough fans who assured you it was handball for the winner were nowhere near it , it was up our end , with just a few of their fans behind the goal , behave ?
  3. Appealed , wonder how quickly they will hear it , before next Saturday?
  4. Obviously it was the little you saw , we certainly were not second best , especially second half we were good , we were organised and competitive which will get better , decent entertainment for the first time in seasons
  5. No definitely Emmanuel, it was crazy outside , went off all over the place that day , City lads held their own but United everywhere
  6. Agree just some perspective please, and Saturday wasn’t shit , big improvement from last year, shit late goal but not performance
  7. Season only ended a few days ago but have any of the players flown out to Spain for hols in that time ? If so Two weeks quarantine?
  8. On the subject of season tickets the deadline for renewing your seats or lose them is on Monday , with massive uncertainty for many and just a small global crisis I notice the caring sharing club has not done anything to acknowledge this by perhaps extending for at least a few weeks , many people I know including myself and family have not done so as yet, I suppose depends how many sold , if not so many might do , but nothing in the PR dept of this club makes me think they give a shit
  9. Really good , noticed Derby pretty much fielded second eleven at Barnsley in EFL cup, so recovery vital for Weekends game , but yes come on let's see a big crowd behind the lads on Saturday
  10. Blackburn and Burton results make the people on here stating we can stay up with 40 points look like incredible optimists
  11. How's it very poor ? Leeds had 600 more than forest of which the crowd was 19,500 , was that poor too ? We are increasing the crowds well, will take a while. Lot of people who didn't go saying it was poor , get a ticket
  12. On reflection a day or so on , although you have to say they kept going to the end it was written that these jammy sods would score another last kick winner as so many times this season but hey ho shit happens. But asking myself why I hate them is not on the pitch but off , the delusional idiots that ballshit for England , taken this many here or there , always rounding it up to the next thousand or so , where our media tell us we had 1,997 instead of 2k, the recent crap where they let it be quoted they took 40k to the conference final where even officially by them a year ago it was just on 30k, all they will care about is how many we took somewhere next season compared to them , and results that better ours against certain clubs, although be aware we did take 99 points the last time we were in that league , I know a few gas fans and although decent lads all live in the ' we got to show we can be better than them ' camp. And by the way can someone start a new thread as it does seem we are obsessed with them as it reaches 200 pages BUT it's a year old !
  13. He actually said on Twitter " we have our lists " so it sounds like they know what they are after by now, so please get on with it asap , unlike last years nightmare
  14. ODonnell has been brilliant since coming in, all keepers make odd mistakes but he is different class to Frankie, and has been a big part of the revival including a vital,save early on today when it looked odds on to go one down, if you are watching the games live you can see him marshalling the back line excellently, back off.
  15. Truth is that is was a very good performance, most players had a decent game and we definetly should have the penalty, nailed on , had a perfect view, the defender caught Tomlin , ref was an absolute disgrace all through and it's fair to say Birmingham are the most obnoxious team I have seen all season, in the refs face all match whinging and moaning which I think influenced the knob on the penalty . Tomlin and goldbourne were excellent , very composed and in Tomlins case oozed class, definitely could be the X factor, BUT please get a striker in by Monday because for all the good build and chances it was hard to see us putting chances away.
