    What will they cry about

    I think there had to be more there than the 17k reported based on the fact that reported attendance for Morecambe was 15k. The attendance for NC was obviously several thousand more including a far greater away support than for Morecambe. One of the attendance figures was wrong,

    Worst Away Days

    I think that was the coldest I have ever been, not just at a football match.

    Just f*ck off Burge!

    Walsall keeper in the cup springs to mind straight away. I am sure I could think of more if I tried.

    Just f*ck off Burge!

    I have loved watching Thomas this season. I think he is a tremendous little player.

    Cry babies

    I can certainly confirm this. My dad was a miner in Binley Colliery. Very proud to be a miner’s son I am too!

    Disallowed goal

    Was he? I may have missed it but I didn’t see the flag go up for offside.

    Match Thread Doncaster Rovers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 4th May

    I went to the Checkatrade game at Cheltenham this season. There would have been around 400 City fans there. As a spectacle, the game was a waste of time as it was literally men (Cheltenham) against boys (our U23s. It was a waste of time and money as the game was barely competitive. I hope we put...

    Willis to Luton?

    I will be sorry to see him go. I think he has improved year on year and has always seemed an honest and level headed player. He also gave me one of my best footballing moments when he scored that goal last May.

    Will it be harder than first thought next season?

    I just caught the tail end of the promotion season in 1967. Like most fans on here I have never seen us have a championship or runner up season in full. That level of consistency, where you are winning most games and losing very few must be hard to achieve but great to watch. Being in, or close...

    Our Best Ever Keeper ?

    I loved watching Bill Glazier, a spectacular and exciting goalkeeper but Oggy would still be my choice for number one. Sheer consistency and all games played in the top flight. Glazier would be my second choice and Jim Blyth third. I never felt Hedman was that good. Certainly when it came to the...

    Bolton Troubles

    I think what most fans want is an owner who cares, who is transparent in what they do and who communicates with them. Yes, there are idiot fans at every club, yobbos who think it is okay to throw stuff at other fans, or those who come on to a forum calling for the manager's head after a couple...

    Heading to L1

    Followed up a week later by coming from behind from a Jim O’Brien goal to win at Barnsley in the FA Cup. A Yorkshire double. This was the high point for me of Presley’s time as manager. I loved those away wins as the view from the hill in Northampton was crap so most of the “home” highlights...

    Heading to L1

    Nice memories of Rotherham last time we played there, coming from behind to take the lead, Murphy saving a penalty and Baker scoring from inside his own half. (We were also given a penalty which was for a foul later confirmed as outside the box. All of this made even better as Steve Evans was...

    Don Mackay

    Really dull, safety first (which wasn’t very safe) football. Sillett and Curtis were a breath of fresh air and the shackles were off players like Regis and Bennett.

    With Next Season In Mind ?

    I went to Plymouth for the first time this season. I have to say that I was impressed. Home Park will be a nice ground when they finish their new stand. As it was, the ground was full with an enthusiastic and vocal support. I was also impressed with the team. Although overall I think we were the...

    Doing a "James Maddison"

    He was sent off for it earlier in the season. He apologised then, obviously didn’t mean it.Its cheating and it shouldn’t happen. As an aside, just watching MOTD, as both the Leicester and the Man Utd games were coming to an end, I was amazed at the amount of empty seats from people who had...
