  1. My thoughts exactly. He obviously loves the challenge but I feel for his family too who must worry about him. More and more it feels like a young mans game (managing).
  2. Well done Exeter for looking after their fans. As for Rovers, not the behaviour of a 6th richest club I would expect.
  3. I think the options in the OP are fair. I would love promotion but losing in the play offs would be really tough. I would take top 6 though. As stated, to make good progress would be the minimum. I do find it stressful to have to fight relegation so I am grateful we don't seem to be heading in that direction.
  4. Ha! Thanks. We haven't got Apple TV so haven't watched that series but looked it up to understand what you mean. If she was ringing a bell at corner kicks that would be perfect.
  5. A protest? I am going to buy shares in tennis balls...
  6. The maths per game etc gives me a headache but what I would say is that with 8 points covering 9 teams around us (from Cov down), there is plenty of potential for those teams to take points off each other which should make any climb up the table a little bit easier.
  7. ^^^ Is that the Man City supporter with the bell from years ago?
  8. I predict they will change this later in the year. If they don't, 1883 on the badge will refer to the attendance in years to come.
  9. I just think it is an age thing. The photo of my boyhood heroes in the old kit and more importantly, invited back into the club, is what matters here, to me anyway. I totally get that a younger person would not understand the Leeds game even though the history books show that Revie side as one of the best club teams that ever played.
  10. So, the big question is, with these shirts selling so fast, will they do another production run? Once produced, it must be easier to make more? One of my favourite shirts was a red polo shirt with the old club badge on. As it was low key, smart casual, you could wear it at times when a match shirt was not appropriate and only those stood close to you could pick up the name on the crest.
  11. Photos from their matches suggest a lack of youth attending already. I guess many will give up the ST and buy occasional match tickets instead. I am not a commercial person but surely they need a 'loss leader' to hook people in, then they become ST holders in later life? Good news for City I would think.
  12. The use of the term early bird (catches the worm) might give them catering ideas....
  13. There must be pillar restricted views on some of those new stand seats? (If they are lucky )
  14. I found out when I got home from school. The match was played in afternoon daylight mid week which seems really weird but someone else on here recently said it was because of power shortages.
  15. Here is some context for you. I don't know your age but for Leeds in 74, think Man City at their best, full of internationals. Some great photos in this report. http://www.mightyleeds.co.uk/matches/19740219.htm
  16. You should focus on the club getting some of our heroes from the past back into the club and into a retake of their old kit rather than the anniversary.
  17. Reckon Trevor could still run the midfield and pick out Conway with a through ball.
  18. Wow. The old badge too. A clever video, I have to say when I get dressed in the dark like that it doesn't usually end well.
  19. If I was to guess it might have been over watered but it looked fine to me. Here are a couple of images courtesy of the City official site, hopefully ok to post on here? No sign of any cabbages to me. Are the Saints players sat down looking for them or planting them? A bit early, still a chance of frost?
  20. More moans on there about the crap pitch? Geez, if you can't play football on that..... Apparently they passed it but we played on the break, but 2 of the goals were not on the break. It reads as though some never actually saw the game and picked their comments from the Losing Team Excuses Handbook.
  21. Vibration and resonance are not something you want in a structure. It may start to sway like bridges sometimes do.
  22. I am a bit worried about the new stand. If the club shirts 'weigh heavy' and the supporters are all wearing them, should the structural engineer redo his calculations?
  23. If you are going to make contact, might as well go all in! Nearly kicked him out of the penalty area.
