Be nice to get 10 days off work and the likelihood of me dieing is very slim.

Thanks for that. My dad contracted it and shook a seven.  Mum and I had to watch him pass away in hospital via Skype as we weren’t allowed in.  Your confidence fills me with.............  I refuse to engage any further with a *****.

Haha I would definitely be going in disguise given some of the posts about Derby! More sensibly, yeah whatever corporate area dresscode is, no display of alliegance etc.

This might interest us all. The usual q's and special pleading but in amongst it, reference to suspension of withdrawal of membership. Wasn't aware it was even on the table!?

Question 1.

Am I correct in recalling that the 'old' club shop used to stock subtle BCFC ties?  Tried to buy one online before heading to the Riverside but had no joy.  If anyone can find a source (I can't) i'd appreciate a link.

I used to fix them a long, long time ago! Bloody nightmare they were as well, vacuum tape readers.

These bad boys too...

The height of technology they were, had about 50MB storage, solid coil n all.

Fits in nicely with the gas as it's from the 80's.

Ah, 1973, Barclays Bank in Dursley, Burroughs TC500.  The banks were just starting to go 'computerised' so any counting errors I made, I would just say that it was a computer error and the customers fell for it every time!  

As this is the BRFC dustbin thread, I'm happy to get back on topic………………B011ux2em.

Stick to the red wine!

I no longer do the red wine @Red Bill. Last time I supped a bottle of that stuff, I found myself toasting the signing of Nicky Hunt as the answer to all of our problems!        

If I must do the grape these days, it has to be a bottle of Verdejo from Consum

Really? I thought the new stadium on the fruit market site was due to be finished and fully functional by now? Surely Wael hasn’t been caught out telling porkies again just to keep the blue few salivating ?!

I had a meeting at a small development site on Feeder Road last week.  I must say, I'm well impressed with the stadium development that's going on at the Fruit Market.  They've kept disruption and inconvenience to the local businesses and residents to an absolute minimum.  I'm minded to recommend the stadium developers for the Considerate Contractors scheme.  One would hardly know that they're knocking up a massive sports venue.  Flawless and non-intrusive drinks all round, I say.

My own urine if that what it takes for a win, however, I much prefer Estrella.

Yup, this is the one…………best €1.50 that can be invested in the Campillo local.

For the last 10 Then Ashton gate was proper 

Can't remember the last time we won at the Gate, but I think this was the kit we sported at the time!

I can remember Yeovil coming up to Worcester City en masse in the very early 80's for what was probably a Gola League game, during my spell at St George's Lane.  They all appeared to be heavily armed with sticks of celery.  Odd lot imo.

But I do ******* hate football sometimes and to see that ugly bastard Cooper run down the touch line. Was the winning goal handball? 

Yup

Bloke took the lace out twice there.  It was a clear handball even from bloody Spain!

I wandered lonely as a number nine in a 5-3-1-1 formation

And another one who suffered English Lit for his GCE’s, eh.

Parked up about an hour away from the ground. Just booked a driveway parking spot a minute from the stadium.  The old knees don’t cope with your grim British weather too well these days, so a short hobble back to the car after the game and then get me to the sunshine! Thanks for the match preview @Jerseybean  COYR

Aaahhh yes - The Thatcher years, two divorces etc etc.....

Gas 5 points adrift at the bottom now  

'HMS PissTheLeague' is adrift, and the current Cap'n has done his absolute best to deliver on his pledge to get those tw4ts out of League 1.

Now Gash, go **** yourselves

I can't help thinking that business must have been up and down?

 

But they've got 5 games left.  5 wins gives them 15 more points, taking them to a grand total of 71 points* for the season.  Upper mid-table finish in my book.

I tried to listen to the 'game' on Talk Sport 2 whilst driving down from the North this afternoon.  I gave it my best shot but had to eventually switch to Radio 4 Extra as the commentary left me completely perplexed.  No matter what names the commentator was saying had possession of the football, I just didn't have a clue as to which team they played for.  Totally impossible to enjoy for me, mind.

That's semantics really.

The biggest demand for tickets in a season would come in a game where we were playing the Rovers.  That would be the most important game of the season for us.

We have competitors within the Championship but there is only one genuine rivalry for City and it isn't with Cardiff, Swindon, or Plymouth.

just to backup your reasoning here @Eddie Hitler I've just looked up the first round attendance figures for the 2013 Tinpot Trophy, Southern Section (South-West Group).

Exeter 0-2 Wycombe.                           1654

Cheltenham 3-3 Plymouth.                  1236

Torquay 0-0 Portsmouth.                     1951

Bristol City 2-1 Bristol Nomarks.        17888

You've nailed it my friend.
