I've left early. It's usually been when we've been absolutely terrible and have been poor for a long run of games and wouldn't have got anything out of the game or if I've had somewhere else I need to be so I'll stay at the match for as long as possible until I have to go to wherever I need to be, t...
Arrived late to a few games over the years but the one that really sticks out was Villa away in 2006. Stuck in horrendous traffic all the way to Birmingham, missed Doyle's opener early into the game and arrived just as Sonko got harshly sent off and Angel scored the penalty. Barry scored in the seco...
https://tucanafinancial.com/wp-content/uploads/Pinchofsalt.jpg I can't see how given the last two years figures the owners would be keeping us at or borderline 100% against the edge of FFP. With the profit last year, it's more likely we're trying to create as much room to spend in future. I would b...
I think if we do manage to stay up it will be by the skin of our teeth, but we are definitely in serious danger of ending up in the bottom three based on our recent form. I put £30 on us to be relegated at 8/1 a couple of weeks ago as a contingency plan if we do go down to go towards a cheaper seaso...
Yes, we (wife, daughter and I) will renew ours, we always do. It will be tough to do it if Stam is still manager and the football is shit, but it's something I like to do and something we now do as a family. I go because I support the club and the team, not the manager or anyone else. It would have ...
Nigel Pearson wouldn't cost much, currently managing in the Belgian second division (Oud-Heverlee Leuven owned by his former Leicester employers). He knows the league well and more importantly how to get out of it.

So I’ve just received an email telling that I have won the meet the manager prize draw. (I don’t know how to make a new thread so thought I would post on here) I there anything that people would like to ask Jaap through me? Still a bit shocked I won tbh!!! Why is he insisting we played better again...
The name Jamie Hinton seems vaguely familiar...... Did he have a thing about sandwich bags or am I thinking of someone else ? :lol: :lol: :lol: Sandwich bag suicide definitely rings a bell. I do think he has a very valid point about Madejski being removed from the seats and replaced with Reading FC...
I can't remember the last time I actually heard something racist at football. Bristol City away last season. Mad celebrations and a bit of goading and banter to the city players (why they thought it was sensible to have the tunnel going right through the away end I'll never know). Unfortunately som...
I hope he does well and puts one past Villa tomorrow night if only to stick up two fingers to the racists who abused him during his time there. I was speaking to a Villa supporting friend last night who has heard him referred to as Leandro Baboona by some other Villa fans because he's black and like...
I've bought the £5 match pass for this game to see how it works and everything. I'm abroad at the moment so don't need a VPN, but will try the last 10mins or so with one to see how well it works. If all is good I'll probably sign up and use it with a VPN back in the UK, as I'm at uni so can't get t...
We have had some rare possession. Huddersfield are pressing us all over the pitch. They are calling it a gegen press. What does that mean anyone? Usually heard in association with Klopp. The whole team pushes up and presses their opposite number, before the opposition have the chance to structure a...
We'll be ok. This squad is a work in progress who I think will improve as the season develops. We do however need a new defender, left back and a striker if not two strikers to make us competitive. If we can bring those players in I feel confident we'll be around 12th come the end of the season. Any...
I think it should be the Maurice Evans stand as it already has a plaque dedicated to him on the North Stand wall by the ticket office and he is actually a club legend. According to my dear old nan RIP and wikipedia he was a skilful, thoughtful player without an ounce of malice in him, playing 459 fi...
