That's one way to spin it.

In a promotion run-in, a result that sees you lose ground on 4 of your promotion rivals can't be seen as a good result. It's a point at a tough place so you take it and move on, but all this talk of draw tonight, win Saturday often doesn't work out. When was the last time we won at Bristol...

Looking at the live feed, pitch looks in great condition.

Bizarre reaction really. It's £18 for ST holders. The lowest they can charge is £15 anyway. Is £3 such a big deal. I spill more than on my way to the toilet most matchdays.

Yeah, it doesn't quite stack up. 5.5K sounds to me like it should be the whole bottom tier which is pretty much exactly what we had for the cup tie a few years back (I don't recall us having the top tier that day). Either way, it is enough tickets I think, still doubtful that we will take that many.

Not sure the GM holds 8K, though it was 7K with every seat. Suspect there might be one block netted off and the front couple of rows which may explain the difference. No logical reason why they would close the blocks closest to the Kop Stand for this one.

But that will not happen. No way we'll go up with 77 points imo. Go back over the last few years and the teams that go up will all have kicked on. Last year on Jan 20th the ppg for the teams that finished top 3 Luton 2 Barnsley 1.92 Charlton 1.82 From that point to the end of the season Luton...

Which is what I said, 2 points per game is 82 points which I think it was we need, so about 12 wins from 19 plus a couple of draws, or 10 wins and 8 draws, but no matter how you break it down it's a tough task. What makes me think a couple if teams will emerge is that it always happens. Out of...

Surprised to see some say they'd be happy with a draw. If we're serious about automatic promotion we have to be looking to win every game we play. This is the stage of the season where a couple of teams always emerge, go on crazy runs and roll over teams. It happens every season. A draw isn't...

Yeah, ever the optimist!

Where's the animosity to Madders? His twitter feed is full of fawning City fans. Quite right that we are proud of him. Tbh, whether a handful give him a bit of stick on the night would probably be the least of our worries.

So I checked anyway. Last train 22.56, which is tight with a 20 minute walk.

Not good that

Quite possibly, just haven't checked the train times. Don't want to jinx it, will worry about if it happens!

Depends on the trains to and from Nuneaton. With the prospect of extra time (slim I know) it might rule out the train anyway.

Yeah, missed that game as was overseas. If I recall correctly the game was live on ITV when they had the TV rights. Was just after the Cardiff game I think when our season started to derail.

Ah yes, I've tried to forget about our trips to the King Power/Walkers. Couple of decent draws but otherwise pretty grim. That Marlon King goal caused all sorts of shin injuries. Lots of good memories from FS though.

It hasn't, he's making it up.

Yeah, been a while. Almost twenty years since we played Villa too. Where the fuck did that time go?
