  1. "Upwards and onwards," says Big @Never to the dark side on Radio Local. Upwards and onwards, or onwards and upwards, it's all the same to me, up the City and (come) on you Reds ....
  2. They drew the first half v Mansfield in 2014, tbf. And a lot of the second half. Right up until Mansfield scored, in fact.
  3. Man Utd visited Eastville on Good Friday, 1975, so clearly the attendance was less than it might've been what with the Tote End being at mass that afternoon.
  4. If I recall kreckly, Man Utd drew 28k at AG that season, and 19k at Eastville. We are the Many, they are The Few.
  5. It’s almost exactly like Tommy Doc's Man Utd and the Red Army rampaging around the Second Division in 74/5.
  6. Joey might need to draw upon some of that Nietzsche he used to read over these ensuing ten minutes or so ....
  7. Manchester is defiantly independent and separate and also assuredly confident in their own independence (from London/the rest of the country). And confident in their own cultural equality, or supremacy over, even, London. Liverpool the same. It wouldn't enter their thinking to hear a chant at Chelsea or Arsenal and then adapt it for themselves. I see the fellas in our singing bit - and in previous years/decades - and, bless 'em they do try, but they do not have this independent state of mind. They don't have the confidence. Or the wit/imagination.
  8. JET and Baldock were third top scoring "duo" in the country that difficult season. Joe Bryan's goal v Man Utd is a class above both goals you mention there, though, in my humble ....
  9. Grounds were empty and most people were preoccupied with the pandemic when LJ was fired. There wasn't even a 'Johnson Out' bedsheet to be seen. What did for Lee was 1. Going backwards (down the table, not improving) 2. The dismal spectacle and dire quality of football, especially at home, and 3. The players were no longer responding to Lee, as close inspection of the drinks breaks brought in last summer when the season restarted revealed (Lee spent them berating the 4th official while his opposite number was amongst his players giving them instruction).
  10. A lot wanted Pearson now everyone criticising what he is doing. What a shock (if we win)
  11. They will keep coming from looped crosses to the back stick, where Chris Martin will inexplicably always be in acres of space, and where he will power headers back across goal into the far corner of the opposition net, past the despairing dive of each and every Championship keeper this season.
  12. It's not much of a town, is it?
  13. Nice to see the old Bris rugby club hasn't been completely lost ....
  14. That does ring a bell, Phil. That could be him ....
  15. There was one, about six years ago .... Les someone or other ....
