Ska Junkie

Yep, first time I've run out but I'm a miserable bugger so may have been limited for some time and not known.

Personally, there are many things about the gas that I despise but their support pales into insignificance compared to ours so it's irrelevant! Even Sky said on the tele, during the 'Boro match (I watched it again, how sad am I), that our support is loud so why would we be jealous of 7,000 people getting wet watching hoofball on a quagmire, in a sh1t stadium when we regularly have over 20,000 enjoying Championship football, on a bowling green, in luxury?

Essentially, £93M helped. There's the difference in a proper football club and the methane snorters up the road! They seem to have overlooked the financial aspect.

As for matching our level at the Mem? Yeah, right, of course they would!

Not bad but Ill raise you... Until the 12th of never, Johnny Mathis. 'Until the Twelfth of Never and that's a long, long time'.

This makes for a decent read. One of theirs has it spot on, 'protesting because City are near the Prem'! http://gaschat.co.uk/thread/11269/mk-dons-brfc-crossroad They won't get a Stadium MK, probably not even the hockey stadium Mk used to play in as THEY COST MONEY! At least some on there realise it's not just about the seats and capacity, moreso the additional revenue streams MK (and us now) have which is probably what made the UWE a crap deal for them. Without the non matchday stuff, having the UWE would have made next to no difference to their revenues apart from having a shiny stadium, just to play in while UWE reaped the benefits.

Erm, aren't they the same place? I live close to BI, not in it, and there is one staunch gas boozer on the island suggesting the estate is predominantly blue. I would suggest it's one of the few blue areas left but in Barrs, next door, it's virtually ALL red and long may it continue! @Cheesleysmate lives near me so I would assume he agrees? Kingswood was pretty blue when I was a nipper with one shining 'bastion of red' boozer. While there's still a lot of older blues, I would suggest there are an awful lot more reds in BS15 than there used to be, maybe not parity yet but it's not far off!

Holy crap! All joking aside, I wish the gashead well. It's a game after all.

??

He missed out ' with the points'!

You missed 'all being well' off the end potw.

That is brilliant! They've got one 'player' that looks like a down and out meth head and could have used anyone else for that pic but, no, not r*vers! Another beauty...

I see Henbury plum is at it again. Some joker posted on facebook that they would sell their City v Man Utd ticket for £1,000,000 (that's ONE MILLION POUNDS) and numbnuts started a thread criticising City fans saying they would never do that as they're 'faithful and true' (unless they're playing sh1t when they don't bother). He fell for a blatant wind up! Thick prat. Is the guy ill or just very, very stupid to be that gullible? I understand delusion but this is off the scale IMHO. Pillock!

Seventhly, it's the gas, what did you expect?

I was sent a link to a match vlog from a Rotherham supporter whose dad works at my place. I sat and watched it and thought my broadband had died as it was so slllloooooooowwwwww. It was like a shit football video on frame by frame. You know the sort where a nine year old is waiting for the ball to stop before kicking it, just slower. Utter garbage. Championship at the Mem, my arse!

2,000 under their previously quoted break even figure (although that's gone up to more than their capacity IIRC) at say £15, that's nearly a whole Tilson they lost on Saturday!

Plus, they can't sack him for speaking out as the fans love him. He's playing them as much as the board are playing the fans. All good stuff! UP THE CITY!!

That's where it came from!! Thanks James.

To me, that came across as a right 'pop' at WAQ TBH. It seemed to be a 'I can't make a silk purse out of a cows ear' to me. I would imagine WAQ won't like it at all. The thing that grinds my gears is the 'how successful they've been for 3 years' crap! No, if you hadn't been utter shite beforehand, you wouldn't have dropped out of the league and all you've done is bring a lower league 1 / league 2 club back to their supposed proper position. Hardly successful, more righting the abject crap that went on beforehand. They blatantly have problems, big problems and it all comes down to financial backing, or in their case the total lack of it. 'See you in Waitrose? More likely sat outside rattling a tin. Hey ho, up the City!

If he's saying 'total spend', the bloke's obviously talking utter bollocks then GC. No change there then! Looks that way. Good innit?

Is there a poundland on Oxford St then?

We gave them £300K for Matty though so maybe it's a net spend of £135K. We've spent loads but have a very low net spend taking into account monies received. We might even be in profit on transfers for all I know. What I do know is they are absolutely shite, want 4 Championship players, a cat 2 training academy and a new stadium even though they haven't got a farthing to scratch their arses with. There's a slight flaw in their plan TBH.

I wouldn't know as I was a baby!

Exactly, some of us were born in 1967.

I see they're banging on about Billy Bodin on slagchat again. Is he actually any good / good enough for the Championship? Apart from their drivel, I've never heard of him but he plays in a problem position for us and with COD's injury etc, is he worth a punt or not?
