Yeah, "BusBus" is the new name for "Event Support Team/EST" that used to be officially endorsed by the club for away coach travel. Not sure why they still aren't, but I think they were dropped when the Arena did coaches for a season or something, don't see the club advertise a particular coach...

Didn't think of that. I usually just become needlessly overwhelmed by the ordeal, get the amount of tickets I need in my basket and checkout before being completely overcome by paranoia that we'll somehow sell out minutes after going on sale... It's tough being fucking huge.

Hope Rochdale do it for Perry, and Ebanks-Landell and Rodney and Hiram Boateng...well, not so much Boateng

I think it's fair to say a lot of football fans have no shame or humility, especially on social media, so I would say yes they probably would.

(Eccles giving Torp and Grimes a nickname but not Jamie Allen reminded me of Mike Bassett) Lampard: Torpy and Grimesy in midfield Allen: Torpy and Grimesy? Lampard: And upfront we've got Tats, Simmo and EMC, and Allen, you're on the bench. Allen: Yeah, but Lampard: Well, what's the...

A historic injustice doesn't justify the actions of a club, romanticised by Sky Sports, to the detriment of others and the sport, though?

I think this is probably the root of my slight antipathy towards Wrexham. To make an exception of them for spending big would be ignoring precedent, can't say I dislike the owners particularly, Wrexham bandwaggoners will be bundled together with the others who partake in that particular...

True, but what I'm trying to get out is there is now a lack of subtly to so-called "game management" in modern football. I always found things such as time wasting to be more of an art, but now it's just so blatant and referees sit by and allow it to happen. I wont give away my exact age, but...
