    So,when was that deal done?

    If we had drawn 0-0 last week and won 6-1 yesterday, not only would everybody have a stiffy today but expectations of hammering Notts County would be unrealistically high. Our season has been inconsistent and why does anyone expect anything different now?

    So,when was that deal done?

    There wasn't passing between the sides, in fact Bristol City hit the woodwork. Yes neither side bust a gut but it wasn't as blatant as passing to each other. Alan Dicks, the Bristol City manager, was of course Jimmy Hills assistant during our glory years. What is overlooked about the delay is...

    George Hudson

    I was at that game and my dad said watch the HUD destroy us and in the replay he did. You can't say Hill was wrong to let him go though as he didn't set the world alight with Northampton in Division one. I remember him getting a great reception. The name George Hudson evokes memories of the...

    Leigh Jenkinson or Tommy Hutchison ?

    Having considered the conundrum I have decided on Jenkinson, who must be in his mid forties against the best player ever to wear Sky Blue, who must be approaching 70.

    Celebrations

    Because if you don't make the play offs, you can't win in the final, like if you don't win your quarter final you won't get to the final. It is a milestone, maybe an open top bus parade is too much but its a stepping stone on to greater things.

    a tear, a linen handkerchief and a secret fist clench.

    Legends Day Line Up Announced

    I sort of get your point, yes is it an ex players day and some of them are definitely stretching the definition of legend. Given that the title is legends day and is part of the CCFPA calendar they are not going to grade their own members in a derogatory fashion. It is what it is and as long as...

    I’m hoping for a boring 0-0 on Saturday

    I I'd prefer to thrash a team in the play off final

    Matchday programmes going?

    I buy programmes and flick through them. There is nothing much to see really but I get them out of habit. Would be missed I think.

    Legends Day Line Up Announced

    These ex players are part of the CCFPA and represented the club with varying degrees of success. That's why they are invited. Yes some are footnotes in the history of the club and the names of some will echo in eternity such as Dennis Mortimer, ian Wallace and Bobby Gould. Why do some look at...

    So how does this work?

    Find your groove, don't shake your head when someone says that McNulty is better than Salah, nod your head when it's said we have the best fans in the world and if you like Wasps keep it to yourself. Oh and when we lose Robins out, when we win "walking in a Robins wonderland.

    I worked in Hamburg from 80-82 and was a regular at the volkspark stadion when Keegan then beckenbaur played for them. It was weird as they would play to full houses versus Bayern but have 12000 gates for games against the Bielefelds of the bundesliga. I also periodically went to watch st Pauli...

    McNulty's Goals

    Biamou is likable, he has something about him whereas JCH is gangsta and I can't warm to him at all. For me Robins has to decide on mediocre v mediocre but I hope he chooses someone higher up the food chain than either of them if we go up. McNulty will go if we are in league two and Ponti should...

    glass case in case? so two glass cases Otis, like the Russian dolls?

    Joint favourites

    Likewise. This would be a great final, good crowd but tickets all round, 1-1 each in games and a point to prove. Big motivation but not as great as the prize.

    Exeter

    Get real. It is 103 miles from Coventry to Bristol and 83 miles from Exeter to Bristol. What possible reason could they have to forfeit home advantage? Exeter are under no obligation to to do anything other than play at St James Park. I hope they fulfill that obligation and play in their...
