    Fickle bunch

    As did Swansea! To be fair, I would be happy with our season provided we avoid any kind of relegation battle.

    Gary Mabbutts Foot

    Just saw this also. I remember reading Stuart Pearce's autobio where basically said Mabbutt was a two-faced cowardly knob which, it must be said, goes against everything you see about him when he is seen in the media. Psycho said that he'd been told by an official before a game (possibly an...

    I think Swansea went up pretty quickly too, just checked Wiki and it was 3 promotions in 4 years

    Oxford Away Tickets

    I think that standard allocation is 2k ish. If thereis sufficient demand then the rest of that stand, which is nornally shared with home fans, can be allocated yo the away side. I don't know if they'd allocate another chunk of seats without gi ing us the full stand, but i do not think they would...

    4-4-2

    Problem is that you sometimes have to adapt to circumstances; if you're being overrun in midfield you may need to move to a midfield three, with a lone man left ahead. Or if you're finding the opposition attack streaming into your box, it makes sense to move to a flat back 3 with wing-backs...

    I think you mean "The Man U 1994 FA Cup winning side's 442"

    The diamond again is another "442 in all but name"

    4-4-2

    I agree. Though in reality, 451, 433 and 4231 are all variants of 442, so much so that your number 10 pushing up forward creates that straight away. It's the same thing but for a very subtle difference.

    P45 for Nolan

    Hadn't realised our fans hated him like this. Couldn't care less personally, just another whiny manager.

    P45 for Nolan

    Nolan was wrong to blame decisions against them...we were the better team by far over the two games.

    Party boat for Charlton away

    I've done the party boat thing in London for a work Christmas Party a couple of times. Good fun - not sure how "in the spirit of it" you'd be at 10am in London but then this is boozy football supporting so anything is possible! Another idea would have been to hire the boat to pick up from near...

    Match Thread Coventry City at Gillingham Match Thread - Saturday 25th Aug

    Sounds like a positive enough day. A point should shut up the moaners for a little while.

    The Coventry Telegraph

    Yes when he had an exclusive on who we had released and who we had retained and it turned out to be 50% wrong - same % as you'd get through sheer guesswork. "I want to see who I've beaten"...said my granddad everytime he scanned the obituary section. Jordan Willis recovers from knock.....live...

    Robins has to go in the summer / 02476 555 555

    Genuine question here - what do people think would represent failure this season? Bottom half finish? Relegation battle? Failure to challenge for top 6?

    Biggest Embarrassment of the Night

    From your post, do I take it that the individual was not thrown out? If so, any idea why not?

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    If so then fair enough but personally I must have missed that. I genuinely understood/understand it to be the case that she's in the uber-rich class and far beyond the means of your typical fund manager / EFL club owner. If I am wrong then it would possibly partly explain, if not excuse, some of...

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    I've never seen it as accepted as fact that she isn't. Quite genuinely. The fact/perception that Joy has the financial means far beyond your typical lower league football club owner has been one of the most galling aspects when it came to lack of investment in the team e.g. when we were...
