Anyone else remember the cheesy big band / saxophones version of the Sky Blue Song they used to play over the loudspeakers as the team ran out onto the pitch? 1970's and probably into the 80's as well. Ended with a climactic baam-baam parp-parp 🎷🎷.

Very talented but ran like a duck.

You forgot to mention building an entire unified fanbase almost from scratch after years in the wilderness.

I'm sure we'll all enjoy that Tom, before you are rugby tackled and escorted from the pitch with a copper's helmet strategically placed.

The abuse you were posting about Haji a year or so ago was an absolute disgrace, and now you're giving it the double sad face at the prospect of him being sold.

Is that Kerching as in the sound of a cash register?

The weird thing about Dasilva is how he ever became a full back in the first place. He just doesn't have the attributes. He's neat enough with the ball, and I can picture him playing centre mid in a possession based side, ferrying it around and playing little one-twos etc., but only against...

It's not erratic, it's consistently pretty poor and always has been.

Some people seem to get embarrassed very easily on here. Every bloody thing is "embarrassing".

Yeah, goalies used to get some stick in the West End. "One fatty Rimmer, there's only one Fatty Rimmer". He took it well enough tbf!

I think he wants Wright left right on the left.

This sophisticated golden oldie just popped into my head for no good reason 🤷‍♂️ Oh we'll fight fight fight for Coventry 'til we win the Football League

I'm certain that the song (at least in theory) was modified for every home game, with the words to be sung for each match printed in that day's programme. For example, I definitely remember it saying "Wild Wolves or Bolton..." Of course in reality, people weren't going to follow that, and...

Really? Never realised that. So are you saying that 'Proud Posh or Pompey' was a reference to three teams, not two?

I'm astonished how many people are putting forward multiple ideas for signings, and not listing LB as top priority! Bring in an outstanding guy for that position and half the team's problems would melt away IMO. (And no I can't suggest who it should be, that's the recruitment team's job).

Never been on there, and have no intention of it. Sounds grim 🤣

You too. I was never as bothered about this as it may have appeared in print!

No, only Derby was what I'd call freak. Those other games you mention could have gone either way, although if i remember rightly we were pretty dire in the first half against Wednesday yet went in 1-0 up. These days it does feel as though the team with least possession is the one most likely to...

We've got lost in the bushes here. Enough.
