Re: FA Cup 1st round draw Monday 14th October

Sad !!! I was distraught on 31st January 1968 when Man City beat us 7-0 at Elm Park before a crowd of 25,969. :D Yes but what a fantastic match at Maine Road - drawing 0-0, with all their stars such as Francis Lee, Mike Summerbee, Colin Bell, Mike Doyle etc. Still can't imagine how the hell could g...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Cheltenham Town (a)

Looking at dates and I don’t know when this could be played. Don’t know what the rules say, but would be good if the tie could be reversed and played tomorrow. 20 November is the latest date for fulfillment of Group Stage fixtures. Assuming it’ll be a Tuesday the only options look to be 15th Oct, 5...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Cheltenham Town (a)

We got as far as just before the M5 turn off to Cheltenham when we found, just hopped off the motorway, turned round and straight back on the road back to Brum. Only 45 minutes each way so not too bad overall. Was a pretty wet trip down the M5, although the rain eased off south of Worcester as we he...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

What was with the pitch invader at full-time? Looked like a kid trying to be big and clever in front of his mates. Stewards didn't take kindly to him trying to evade them in the stands. Hopefully he gets a ban. Yep, Big Clive had to wrestle a few of the kids in the stand out the way as he piled int...

Birmingham will falter. I saw their CEO yesterday saying something like "we're too good for League One and will go up" or something. It adds unnecessary pressure and ironically he also said about remaining humble. Insulting and many clubs will feel provoked by this kind of thing. They'll ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

Enjoyed the trip down last night. Reading pretty good in the first half, probably should have been 4 up at half time. Aided by Burton neither pressing nor sitting deep and allowing us (combined with good movement between the lines) a lot of time and space to exploit. Second half Burton actually turn...

Re: Royals anthem.

I think it's more difficult these days to try and assign a new song as a club anthem - look at all the famous ones, YNWA, Bubbles, MOT etc they're all from the 60/70s. Has any club successfully launched a new club anthem that's been adopted?

Colchester also allow you to buy parking (£7.50) at their ground on their OS as, in the usual twattery with new stadia, the ground is right by the A12 to encourage car travel but then there's naff all other parking around so you're caught by the club to be fleeced at whatever they charge plus h...
