Barrs Court Red

That must be it for him I would have thought.

Yeah that does seem to be the high water mark. I’ll give him a pass for the contracts debacle when the wage cap was reduced, but that can no longer be an excuse.

Was that the season we started well, then got walloped by Blackburn at home?

Yet Pat keeps his job regardless. A change is desperately needed, and has done for the last 2 years.

I know your being flippant, but no. Still, this doesn’t take away from it being a hugely unprofessional tweet imo.

Have we entered a new period? Well yes, it always is under a new manager. Hopefully the old trends don’t hamstring Manning - and that’s something we’ll have to wait and see.

So is the stadium making a loss? And I guess if yes, is it a bigger loss than pre-rebuild? My assumption is that it’s not and never will be a yes/no to either question due to the tangled web of corporate financing. With ticket sales in excess of £6m that still only equates to £115k p/w which isn’t a large sum by any stretch to spend on wages and the club has to get more out of its asset - if the asset is loss making that’s a huge problem, given we’ve had 20 years of chasing a sustainable model and the rebuild was supposed to be a huge part of solving that puzzle.

TBF the Tombliboos were proper pricks of the highest order.

Blokes a ***** and his dads an oddball. After our goal they had a spell where they were well on top, but once Connolly went off I thought they looked 2nd best, following the logical route of trying to sew the win up through a counter. So all in all, and being generous, they probably looked the most likely for 30 mins of a 90min match. I genuinely hope he steps on some Lego over the Christmas period.

Great result. Well out of it after taking the lead, but a cracking comeback.

That was such a great night. I missed their first goal lighting a cigarette - no replays to watch in the ground in those days, or online afterwards. Possibly, though Murray crossing to Goater when we beat them 2-0 to go top is certainly a challenger.

Well your English is better than 99% of posters Swedish, fair play to you

In fairness, it’s an improvement when he dismisses fans views as “noise”.

Interesting, UEFA have said that they won’t oppose the proposal. I wonder if they have a rather high degree of confidence it’s dead, despite what Barca and Real are hoping.

Oh I have no doubt that this particular carrot would in no way last - that’s a huge revenue stream.

Stick away fans in the Dolman corner blocks, allow existing season ticket holders equivalent pricing in the Lansdown for 5 years and make the Atyeo safe standing filled with home fans.

It was great seeing some of the memories of this game pop up on Facebook memories. A quality night. Sure, some losers will say we shouldn’t celebrate mediocrity, but one off cup games against a global heavyweight are so rare, and to win it in the manner we did would be hard to better.

I still think the end goal is for some form of world league. interesting that they’re saying it will be shown for free.

Bizarrely that’s what mine actually wanted a few years back.

Looks like the EU court has given an early Christmas present to those clubs still trying for a European Superleague.

I’m not so sure on the ownership (I think they do own it) as that football club has seemingly taken over what was an open public space over the years and it’s a while since I lived round there.

Could be worse…I bought two from a local butchers today. Horrific. I tend to do homemade ones with quails eggs, as it’s easier to cook the sausage through on a smaller egg.

A lot of non-league have installed 4g to get round this and also use it as a 7 day income source - Longwell Green are a good example. I wonder at what point in the pyramid you have to have grass pitches.

It very much looks like it, and I would agree, this seems a good strategy. I’m certainly interested in what they’re going to announce - I just hope it doesn’t clash with the Euros.

I wish I had tried smoking it that way…it would have turned out better than my epic fail. Turns out the Yanks brine theirs first…lesson learned but I can’t be arsed to try again.
