What went around did come back round that very day, because we shouldn't even have been at Wembley that day!
That was another season throughout which we failed to be awarded numerous penalties (admittedly without the help of VAR), with Johnno receiving a few bookings for diving and developing...
That’s the first social media post from Twitter that I’ve supported this week, and I’ll support whatever action they decide to take. Too many people are still happy to sit back and take it - so much for the ‘rebel city’
I’d take the lads off the pitch at this point. The powers that be are going to make sure we go down anyway, so we might as well make a point about the corruption. Sky Sports would kick up a stink because they’d be left with 30 minutes with no football to broadcast.
I watched the Oxford-Stevenage game tonight, and during the first half the Oxford fans whipped up a round of ‘stand up for the FA Cup’ which I liked. As fans of a Premier League club playing a ‘big 6’ club next Sunday I wouldn’t be averse to a round of that for the cameras at some point - it...
I don't know whether that's true or not, but it must have been very lucrative for them however they spent those additional funds. That was one of the first examples I gave last night whilst discussing this issue with a mate because it was brilliant wasn't it; I remember watching the first game...
Yeah I suppose I’m just annoyed because I had some interest in one of the sides. Brice Samba would thrive on that wouldn’t he - push his luck all the way and take a late yellow during the game, then carry on with whatever he could get away with during the shoot-out and pick up another yellow...
Bugger! Villa win it, and it turns out that yellow cards earned during the game don’t carry over to the penalty shoot-out, which I didn’t know before now. That gives goalkeepers license to f*** around like hell during the shoot-out knowing that they can do it until they get booked even if they...
Very frustrating (although I’m pleased for Matty) as it let Villa back into the tie at the death out of absolutely nothing. Nevertheless, Chevalier has redeemed himself somewhat with a bit of a worldie of a save from an almost point-blank header into an almost open goal. Les Dogues fight on!
I agree with this quite a lot; I’ve been surprised by how much disagreement there’s been on here and other social media platforms (notably Twitter), but then people do have different circumstances I suppose. The arguments have often been pretty angry and personal though from both sides. Whilst...
Oh I don’t know; French labour laws are much stricter - and more in favour of the worker - than ours in the UK, and I think that can largely be attributed to the fact that, in previous times, the French got to work lopping off bourgeois heads whilst we were rolling around having our bellies...
That's exactly where I am. I'll renew my season ticket because going to the football's a family thing for me (and a social thing generally) and I've never known any different, so I've got no choice really, but they'll not get a penny more out of me now.
I've seen plenty 'fellow supporters'...
My Brian Clough lower adult season ticket has gone from £538 to £700, whilst my Dad's senior ticket has gone from £385 to £500, so both have increased by around 30%. No doubt they will work to improve the facilities in the concourse to make them 30% better though, and I expect the team will be...
