There were one or two England Schoolboy internationals in the early/mid 90s

Their fans were absolutely brilliant. Loudest i've ever heard at Highfield Rd. I remember they had a massive striker (Karsten Jancker) and he ko'd some poor woman in the East Stand doing shooting practice in the warmup....

Midlands Road Relays tomorrow at Sutton Park. One of the best races of the year. All the local teams have at least one men's team running, and all the local teams except ourselves and Nuneaton have women's teams present (which is a shame as Godiva and Nuneaton are two of the stronger women's...

The quality of the goal itself. The quality of the opposition. And similar to last weekend, the fact that a couple of minutes beforehand, we had been 2-1 down.

I think saturday was our best moment since leaving the Premier League in 2001, considerably over-topping Manchester United away in 2006/7. And its probably up there in my top three with the two below.... However my favourite city goals are always likely to remain Huckerby 97 and Moldavan vs...

Didn't we (as a fanbase) completely write off Maidstone United after they'd just knocked out a better team than us in the previous round? Are we now demanding everyone puts us on an even footing with Manchester United? Of course we're being written off.

They may well be "fragile" but tbf they've just beaten and put 4 past Liverpool who we widely accepted we'd have no chance against.

Well, indeed, that is the point really... Clubs of our stature are now just playing to make the semi final now really.

The issue with the semi's being at Wembley is it completely undermines the final. Say we beat Leicester/Chelsea/Man CIty/whoever in the semi at Wembley..... the final is a bit of an anti-climax after that. regardless of what happens.

I understand that point.... but its probably no more or less realistic on paper than us beating Wolves. (on paper) Chelsea are a better side than Wolves (despite league position), and Leicester better than us.

Am i the only one who wants Leicester? Obviously if we were to lose to them at Wembley it'd be pretty devastating.... but surely Leicester at Wembley is a dream game after all those years of shit.

Wolves away..... shit draw

It is if you're an idiot. Someone posted something the other day with a list of teams we played in league one a few years ago. They are now all in non-league, and it was more than a handful. We should possibly remember where we've been next time we're crying about getting Wolves away in the Fa...

Football fans in being arrogant shocker. We were pretty respectful of other sides during our woes.... decent season last year and every other word on here is "tinpot"

Absolutely grim training session with Godiva at the Univ Of Warwick track tonight in the wind and rain. 9 x 400mtr reps. Starting with 2mins rest, but rest period decreasing by 15 seconds each time (so between rep 8 & 9 there is only 15 seconds rest). First three reps with the longer rests...

I know some Forest die-hards. They don't like Leicester one bit tbf. But the real beef is obviously with Derby.

Aren't we forgetting a little something called the Johnston's Paint Trophy....?

That must've been "there and back" to make 5 miles??? I like running Tamworth/Radford Road.... once you've got to the top of Corley Rocks (i'm coming from Bedworth side) and heading towards the city centre its flat/downhill nearly all the way into town

I've probably mentioned that i'm training for the World Masters Uphill Mountain Champs in the Pyrenees in September. All arranged now, flying out 5 days before in an attempt to acclimatise a little prior to the race. Race is about 4 miles, but starts at approx the height of Ben Nevis, then...
