No, you do have to leave a few minutes early. I can do it in 16 minutes with warp drive enabled. Maybe it will get reinstated at some point, or the Down London, just after, gets an extra stop put in (here’s hoping?).

In guessing GWR could also do their part and actually check tickets on trains before and after matches, because they are generally very busy, but all we have seen is a Saturday afternoon service at a few minutes after five, heading to Taunton pulled from the timetable.

And not for you EA, because you’ll do this anyway, but differentiating a kit with hoops, stripes, halves, a diagonal stripe etc., can really help for us to tell teams apart. As does a good contrast of shorts and socks between opposing teams.

Without dragging up old arguments, the location of the singing section isn’t particularly the issue, it’s the fact that everywhere els you have to sit in the allocated seat. Generally that means that unless likeminded individuals are in the East End if the South Stand then they are going to be too separated to make a difference. with regards away fans I think t he current layout was decided on as when they were given the minimum allocation and shoved to one side the Atyeo Stand is so small that they were behind the goal anyway. I think the current idea is at least they are done distance from the pitch rather than allowing them to create that claustrophobic feel when fans are right up to the pitch.

Interesting! I wonder if Gordon suffered a similar fate!

I don’t disagree but it would have been nice to watch that outcome without having to rely on the colour of a players shorts to tell what team they were. And as others have said the names and numbers were completely unreadable.

And also we would never be allowed to take penalties at Ashton Gate as they are strictly forbidden in the referees secret code of conduct.

I think I have come up with a solution that satisfies all parties. Firstly, allow Derby to keep stringing everybody along. Secondly, all Championship teams fail to field a team for every fixture with Derby thus forfeiting their matches and ensuring they get promoted automatically. Thirdly, when they are gone accumulating a new record low points total in the Premiership, to beat their existing record. The EFL, via their members pass a new rule that any club with outstanding and unsettled P&S issues,or other points deductions are banned from entrance to the EFL. Et voila, Derby get to be in the Premiership (for one season), and the EFL and it’s members get rid of a club that has no respect for the rules. Of course, readmission could be allowed with a 30 point deduction for each of the first two seasons.

You could also add “Did Derby get refused the loan/aid to help with the loss of income from COVID, and if they hadn’t cheated, and were eligible for that cash,would that have staved off administration?”

They are just so damned unlucky. Look what’s going to impact there crowd next week. Coupled with Bristols first ever sea shanty festival…….they just can’t catch a break with competing events conspiring to tear their supporters away.

And our ex-third choice goalkeeper had a blinder?

They are never responsible for being shit are they?

There was also mention that there might be less there than normal due to traffic jams on the M6 caused by a junction being closed in Staffordshire?

Ah whoops didn’t realise it was purple and lime thought they were ripping off the blue and white famous quarterz. Colour blind ness trips me up again

So even less unique than that non-unique design was previously

Fek me! You could wear a replica jesters shirt when you visit your sister and see how you get on?

Well no, because that would involve some money from those ***** and they don’t have any.

I stand corrected. Didn’t realise they lied about ALL attendances. Having no idea what Tokyo World is or involves I’m afraid I naively took them at face value!

Roll up! Roll up! Come see the latest hilarious excuse for shite attendances. The 2,000 odd at Tokyo World don’t you know. Poor, poor victims to circumstance yet again. mftc First Team about an hour ago Quote In the scheme of things, this is no buggy, but we all know when the balloon fiesta is on City don't play home games. Tokyo World may only be 2,000 attendance but if affects traffic and I am sure I saw one Rovers shirt apparently decide to follow the girls and go there instead of the game. He may have been wearing the shirt to go to the festival but seems a strange thing to wear. My guess he was persuaded by seeing more attractive sights than Pittman. I wouldn't have been surprised if quite a few decided to go to the festival rather than the game. Would a more professional sic club have looked to change fixtures and played away? I seem to remember Peterborough changing the ko time/ date when we played them for a similar or perhaps even smaller festival.

I’ll vouch for it. He did! As well as the usual stuff about owing the fans who travel in massive numbers etc…?

Won two to Scunnys one? Or alphabetical?

Before it’s right and after it’s right??

Why would we see you tonight? We’re not playing Ipswich are we Mark?
