    10 minutes until kickoff and Clive has said Akin-fenway five times already. It’s not that hard surely, to learn how to pronounce the name of a high profile player who has featured against us now in a number of games.

    Winter Break for Premier League (Not Football League though!)

    Hardly any English players in the top clubs anyway and those that are in the international squad are mostly makeweights in the prem. Funnily enough no one is claiming that the lack of a winter break in England is harming the French chances of winning the World Cup

    Should we name and shame

    Worst atmosphere I’ve ever experienced at a city away game. Plenty of fights among the City fans at half-time and then as the injury time goal went in during injury time a large number waded into the Man Citeh fans after clambering over two blocks of seating. We were kept in for a lengthy time...

    After he scored for England in the Maracana. He earned himself a move to Italy and an almost ever-present berth in the England line-up until his lack of goals ssaw him dropped after two games in Mexico’86 in favour of Peter Beardsley. Lineker and England never looked back.

    Signings for next season

    If we don’t go up there’s no way we would keep some of the existing squad. McNulty most obviously but also Bayliss and depending on suitors probably two from Willis, McDonald and Davies.

    And Clive would find it even harder to pretend to be excited abt our chances against his beloved Tranmere (I swear his most animated moment yesterday was when the ColU goalkeeper made a save - I’ll watch highlights expecting to see the reincarnation of Lev Yashin - he never did tell us who had...

    They actually chanted “You Sisu bastards/ you let your club die” I didn’t really understand the point they were trying to make although their other chant “From Premier League to Forest Green” did strike a chord. Our fans responded with “we’ll never play you again” and “ you can stick your...

    Cyrille Regis Tribute for MK Dons FA Cup Game?

    In fairness the club tried to do something along these lines w the Garden of Remembrance and the Walls at the Ricoh. I can’t even remember where my ‘brick’ is to be honest and haven’t found it the last few times I looked.

    Cyrille Regis Tribute for MK Dons FA Cup Game?
