Yes, how dare a football fan, on a football forum start a thread relating to one of the most critical days on the footballing calendar and his emotional reaction to it.
If you don't like the thread you don't need to contribute.
Harsh.
Just like Billy Sharp getting us over the line to the Premier League and then being discarded. Sometimes in business individuals are sacrificed for a greater whole.
I always thought we looked best with Fonte and Yoshi at centre back that year, like in the Liverpool game when Jos had to be subbed due to injury in the first half. And yes, he did look good alongside Jos too, who deserves a little more respect then he often gets
Credit where due to Yoshi, he has reasserted himself well in the side and recaptured the form that saw Fonte and himself contribute towards our comfortable survival in 12/13.
Hope he continues to play this well when called upon.
I agree with the sentiment, but there are a lot of reasons why, the chief of which is maintenance costs, the old wooden stands at places like Blundell Park are horribly expensive to keep, hence why many are just left to go derelict. (Mansfield's old Bishop Street Stand for instance.)
Cortese wasn't here.
He had the ambition, regardless of whether he was the predominant power, he was a driving force in the club. He went, the vision went. It is that simple, image can mean a lot. Now our current powers that be need to build their own vision. If we have an exodus on the final day their position will be untenable.
Considering how he was jumped on by the media for posting a picture of a training pitch it seems perfectly sensible that he would scale back his activity on there.
They have a clear plan B, just sell more 'shares' to property develo..... erm, errrrr, fans, clearly fans, who also have a sideline in construction. More 'fans' can pour endless quantities of money into their local building opportunity.
Why did they rip out the terracing from the corners at Blundell Park?
All the best for the new stadium, but all these moves to soulless out of town locations are killing the character of the English game. At least our identikit modern bowl is walking distance in the city centre.
