It was something like that yeah. I don't know if it was some kind of weird 'earn your stripes' incentive but it just smacked of an us and them kind of thing in the writeups.

Who was the fairly recent manager we had who'd keep the youth players completely away from the first teamers or make them 'earn' the exalted position of training with David Bell? I've embellished a little but it was something divisive and counter-productive. I want to say Boothroyd?

'Despite the off-pitch controversy, Coventry have made quick work of their points deduction and are looking the most potent attacking force in the division. They’re taking at least 2 shots per match more than any other Football League side.' Weeeeeey!

The worst part of listening to the games is that until the commentators confirm what's happened you have no idea, as you can barely differentiate between home and away fans by noise level.

I can't imagine you'd get many people willing to commit two and a half years' worth of cash to the same people who've just moved the club miles away. The trust is gone.

Blimey, that's comprehensive. Found the specific one I was thinking of, although it's not as fancy and pizazz as I'd recalled: https://twitter.com/experimental361/status/389779306894737408/photo/1

There's some statto Twitter feed that has infographics of all kinds of stats, and for League One we're way out in front when it comes to creating chances. Although not the most prolific in converting them, the sheer numbers make up the difference. I wish I could remember the page, it was all...

Don't get me wrong there was plenty of negativity banded around, but I never got any feeling that it was that concerted or overwhelming at any point, except maybe for McSheffrey. He got some real shit.

Not sure where I'd stand on it. I'm not going to Northampton because it defeats the object of supporting the nearest team but obviously a Wembley trip doesn't fall into that rationale. I'd feel a bit of a cheat going to nothing whatsoever and then sidling in for the glory though, it's a bit John...

I remember that being one of the main points we heard when Pressley took over, that he was keen on blooding youngsters through at Falkirk with the idea being that he'd have little choice here. There's truth in that with the average age of the squad surely dipping quite drastically since last...

I think the whole hostility of the Ricoh is a little exaggerated, perhaps as an odd way to excuse the relocation. There were rarely enough people at games to sustain that much of a concerted anger, even the 'Sisu out' chants were sporadic.

Eh? The people still going to Northampton aren't the people in question as obviously they're not breaking the habit. It's those who've got into a groove of shelling out hundreds of pounds each year to see mild disappointment mixed with familiarity who are now being denied that, and by...

In another accent it'd sound intimidating and abusive but in Murphy's voice it's firey and charming. What a man. I wonder how his penalty record compares to Westwood.

Ah, like when you play on an American pool table after a classic one. It's like rolling cannonballs down a ravine, it's harder to miss.

He used to phone Hussey in the middle of the night, call him a bollocks and hang up laughing. True story.

We've scored some peachy goals this season, as if to twist the knife in further. I can't remember too many in our whole time at the Ricoh.

Does he concentrate his shouting on anyone else now that Hussey's gone?

I know what it means, and more importantly I know exactly how you meant it also. If it doesn't take effort to break a long-term habit and suddenly stop going to games, you should tell everyone here to stop whining like girls. If the idea was that people staying away were literally not...

http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/37936-Tonight-at-the-casino?p=566628&viewfull=1#post566628 In which you call out former season ticket holder torchomatic for 'literally not doing anything', despite him making a conscious choice to withhold the funds from one or more season tickets he'd...

There's an obvious direct crossover between those no longer going and those not protesting, unless we're actually only down around 50-100 season ticket holders or however many people turn out to these protests. And no, Northampton fans have done nothing so it hardly fits into the whole people...
