People are entitled to their principles, fine, I get that. Logistically it might be difficult for some, but for those who drive 34 miles is down the road really, and there were free coaches the other day so if people wanted to go they could. It's 35 mins away. I suspect people are staying...

To be fair, the Sixfields bubble does sound a bit more enticing than the pool of self-pity you seem to wallow in.

I don't think I've ever been this disappointed with a City away following. We got so much good press and positive coverage when we were taking big away followings (the fact we were taking more away than at home was very significant), but all that appears to have gone. Average at best turn out...

That was Dave Mapp wasn't it? Now he no longer covers CCFC I suspect that twitter account won't be updated anymore, could be wrong though.

Truth is, nobody is really doing anything. Not the people attending Sixfields, not the people sitting on their arse moaning, they're not making the slightest bit of difference. The only people who deserve any credit are those that stand on the hill, although there are so few of them that their...

Actually been told we've only sold 850 tickets so it will be 1000 at most, with up to 3500 going to Barnsley - a crap away trip we've made a million times before. Don't get it.

Way after that. That was 87/88 against Liverpool from what I can tell.

That's true for most I am sure (why risk it). Got my tickets, but my brother doesn't know if he can go until late on Tuesday. I have emailed Rotherham to ask them to clarify if tickets can be bought on the day. If I get a response I will post it here.

Every time a game is said to be 'all ticket' in the past couple of seasons you have been able to pay on the day - the only exception was the last game at Swindon (but that had a lot to do with the police I think). Pretty sure you will be able to get in, Rotherham fan I spoke to said they always...

It was just a general point I was making. And by boisterous I meant more high spirits, the sort of stuff most of us are not averse to at an away cup tie when we've had a few, I wasn't alluding to the potential for trouble because there won't be any. I actually spoke to PC Mapp before the...

Ah yes, I did recall hearing that. Some people will do anything for a quiet life ;)

The first part is fair, I'll concede. But I'm not sure where you get the idea that I feel persecuted. I really don't.

I can understand their reasoning to an extent, but surely it is about effectively policing large groups of people who (for the most part) reside within their jurisdiction. Anyhow, I hope we see his return sooner rather than later.

What, an Everton supporting yam yam? Seriously, PC Mapp is a good bloke and it is a real shame he won't be traveling with us any more. Makes no sense really. What faces will the Northants OB know to look out for in a large and boisterous following at Barnsley? Crazy decision by WMP.

We get the message. Jesus. This could have been a light-hearted thread that harmlessly dropped-off the bottom of page one in no time, but as per usual is hijacked by the usual suspects who cannot pass on an opportunity to make the same point they have made a million times in a million other...

So had we played Rotherham when they played in Sheffield you would still have gone to Rotherham? I understand the point you are making, but rocking up at the Ricoh today was pretty dumb not matter how you look at it.

As far as the viability of the Ricoh is concerned, we're all guessing. Even the accounts to be filed next year will cover a period when the club were still playing there (no rent of course, but there were matchday revenues), so it will be February 2015 when we get a real insight. I think the...

Rumour is that the Ricoh has not secured any summer concerts in 2014 which I guess will pose a problem for them (although they do have that SpringFest thing).

I think you're probably right. My point is, the 7000 who went berserk at MK Dons clearly feel that this is still our football club. It is the fact that it is still our football club that makes people care so much about what is happening. To say it is no longer our club is borderline bonkers...

Without wanting to get into an argument, I think I am right in saying that ACLs last set of accounts filed were for the financial year ending 31/5/2012, which is about when the rent strike started is it not? So it is not true to say they made a profit net of football income. The accounts to be...
