  1. we seem to be bleeding players, unless the youf is stepping up. hope we dont get rushed into having to buy toss players come august.
  2. I would say the same against rotherham in the carling cup of 2008, but we had a couple of decent players in that team. Svensson, Perry, Cork, Surman, John. That's the problem of pre 2009. the whole regime was gutless, and without pride.
  3. This. As lovely as they both are I don't want to see them playing for the national side. Then again we have a dirth of quality all round.
  4. Perhaps he thought you turned into a keyboard bully. Love that phrase. I think we should invest in a 100,000 seat stadium asap so we can outdo Arsenal, Man U and all the rest of them, while we are on a roll.
  5. Considering he wants regular football so am I. Imagine he will go out on loan if a decent offer comes along. He wasn't as bad for us as some make out, but yeah, he isn't a worldbeater.
  6. fancy dress at cricket is acceptable but football it is not. That's the way it is.
  7. I wonder if that soppy sod with the wig and multi coloured bow tie from the middlesbrough game will be going like that again. Hopefully they have learnt their lesson. As for Smedley at Lea Mills. it's had it's day now imo. Too commercial.
  8. Hopefully your mum will bring us luck, but in your own ever appearing catchphrase "we'l see!!!"
  9. Yes they were difficult games on the TV, but you would still expect a team in the top two all season to win more than we have. A defeat against Coventry and I think we will need to employ a white witch to rid the demons. We can't have that going into the televised playoffs.
  10. It's very backwards. Hope you enjoy it, but not sure I would go there again, when Sheffield is only a few miles up the road. Depends what you're looking for I suppose. If saints win then anywhere's going to be class.
  11. Football matches attract weirdos. there's no evidence for this but it is a scientific fact. Best switching off and focusing on the game or the mates you are with. Otherwise god help you. Strange freaks apart good result today, and back to reality again. Win-Win.
  12. Leaving here soon to go to the game. Nervous excitement. Come on boys. Need to be winning tonight and hoping forest can do something.
  13. Good call. Any Scottish club. Total irrelevance in the world of football. I was amused by the description of Reading fans, especially as they know it too. I would say Wigan too, although I love their Chaiman and manager. What the hell they are doing in the Prem is anyones guess. Can't believe they still remain there.
  14. Setting off in half an hour. Excited. Been waiting a few weeks for this one. Hopefully i'm not going to be so drunk I can't remember any of it. Lets cheer them on to victory tonight.
  15. Correct, dont know if they still are, but first half of the season, including against us it was 2 for 1 on tickets regularly through groupon. In my opinion you can't really have more than one true derby, so to me this isn't a derby, but in a different category somewhere on its own.
  16. Superb information. I've just done exactly the same. Hopefully on the back of a good result against Reading we will take a few.
  17. The banter about having received tickets or not is what sets this forum apart from other clubs. God bless the ticket office for assisting with the pandemonium.
  18. I was planning on asking the stewards to go in the terraces. I would guess they are in a better position than anyone on here to say what is and what isn't fine.
  19. Ditto, except i phoned them up. couldnt be bothered to call again for terraced, so just got seated. i wonder if I will still be able to get into the terraces with seated tickets though?
  20. Trekking down to this one, and out on the razzle before and afterwards with a few Reading mates. My one and only home game of the season. Would be fantastic to win, but Reading have looked decent lately so would take a draw. I will make sure I have my face paints and bright red balloons at the ready to impress Turkish.
  21. Things going rather well for us today. lets hope we get another 45 mins of the same.
  22. Stream died two minutes into stoppage. Mare. Are we home yet?
  23. Very very good. Quite camp to boot.
  24. When we went in for him we had next to no backup in the striking department. If he never plays for us again but we go up it's still money well spent in my opinion, due to him being quality backup and adding to the competition for places.
  25. They bring an american style spoting support from Asia. Give me them over the Turban crew at old trafford any day of the week. Difference in Asian culture is they are loyal to a fault when it comes to their own players, where as we love knocking our 'stars'. I can see both sides of the argument, I try to blend in when i watch a game abroad, but then it is a free country.
