I like the sound of this guy. He seems to defy the usual metrics.
Also reminds me of that joke about being sent to the store room for a “long weight” on your first day.
Anyone know if there is a way of checking what your ‘balance’ is on any tickets exchanged.
Just seems to disappear into the either after a game and not clear if any money is credited until next years renewal.
I think Grainger only played twice. From memory let in 6 at Everton and the following week 5 at spurs, with Shilton missing a rare couple of matches.
The game at spurs (5-3?) was my first ‘run of the mill’ away game. Went with a mate who knew Keith a bit.
Barton was my guess too. Hadn’t heard the bouncing cheque story.
I thought it might be interesting to track our excellent manager’s reasoning when (or if) we lose any competitive matches, to see if any themes emerge across the season which might indicate where any problems are within the side.
So far there’s nothing to report.
An advantage at the very start of the season, when you have a better competitive edge, and thereafter a disadvantage due to reduced recovery time, I should think.
When Saturday Comes, an average of a fan from each club, has us on 12.95 (14th best).
Man City top on 1.05 (I’m guessing, the United fan maybe?) Cardiff bottom on 19.40
I agree, especially if the u21’s defeat somehow changes the remaining first team fixtures so they are much easier and that gives us an outside chance of a trophy.
The loss of momentum would be particularly important in that scenario.
