    Leicester At It Yet Again!

    Comments from where? Twitter? Facebook? Most Leicester fans i know personally, once you step past the local rivalry, are genuine football fans. Same with Blues and Villa.

    Premier League thread

    Trouble is most neutral fans don't really give a fuck about Newcastle's owners. In most people's eyes they're just a little bit more abhorrent than whoever owns most of the big clubs nowadays. Football sold itself long ago, so Newcastle's owners are just the tip of the iceberg. I suspect...

    30 Years ago Today

    Was also my first season ticket. Despite having been going to HR since the end of 92, this was the first real big memory. Although looking back at the footage, it looks fairly dreadful in a half-empty stadium.

    Please don't talk with any sense or logic..... We're averaging a point a game (over the last game), thats relegation form whichever way you look at it.

    Yes, and its looking bleak at the moment. But they've got a run of more favourable games now, so might pull themselves out a bit. Its a shame the ground is being redeveloped as it was proper iconic. Same thing happened at Atalanta, i'm glad i went there before that got redeveloped. And it looks...

    Unbelievable that this World Cup looks nailed on to be worse than Qatar.

    Going to Florence in February. Hoping to secure tickets for Fiorentina vs Pisa, which is a pretty spicy derby..... but Fiorentina are redeveloping their ground in time for the 2032 Euros (i think), so capacity is reduced. Livorno are playing at home that weekend which is my backup plan...

    Attendances

    I haven't read the entire thread, seems like another tedious argument. Crowds are fantastic considering where we were such a short time ago. But lets not try to justify £45 for a ticket whatever the circumstances...... if it was another club we'd (rightly) be up in arms about it.

    Personally i've always preferred the larger away allocations. Even back to the Highfield Road days..... didn't matter who the opposition was, if they were bringing a full 4000 it just made it better.

    Busy few weeks. A couple of weekends ago we were in Mansfield for the National Cross Country Relays. 4 x 5km legs. I ran 3rd leg for the B Team, running 19:08 on a tough course. Our 1st team came 24th which was highest finish at this event for about 15 years. Then the following day did a...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Exactly. I don't recall Sunderland getting preferential coverage last season. If you go on their forum i suspect they'll claim they were/are on the receiving end of inferior coverage (which would be equally incorrect)

    Should Robins get a Song from the SBA at Stoke?

    It bothered me when i was 15 and Dion scored against us at Villa Park in that 4-1 If its bothering someone as a grown adult then i despair.
