Was a very memorable evening. It was obvious the club was on a downward spiral, and seemed a massive "show of force" that City could still take a massive following. Similar feelings when we hammered Blackburn 4-1 as well.

Club session with Godiva tonight. 4 x 5 minute hill efforts on the grass. Still feeling stiff and sore from the wwekend, i intended to keep everything steady, and took the first rep at around 4:00/km pace. This loosened me up and on 2nd rep went 3:53/km. Getting into stride now, the final two...

Who gives a toss quite frankly. It's a no-lose situation. If he comes good then we potentially have an asset to the squad. If it doesn't then no doubt Robins will get rid. Bright is hardly "wrecking team sprit" at the moment is he...?

Myself and a couple of other Godiva Harriers raced at the English Fell Champs in Shropshire today... 14.3 miles and 4150ft of climb/descent... course really suited me as whilst it was very tough, it was relatively un-technical... so i was able to push really hard on the long uphill sections...

To be honest, as i would do in most races, i'd had a look round at the start and saw the hazard... also i started in the front couple of rows, so had a clear view... But there were a lot of inexperienced runners who wouldn't have taken a look at any issues, and i could imagine being in the...

Good luck Rich.... Great Expectations hasn't reported on his Nuneaton 10k, i think he said he was expecting to run with a raging hangover... i hope he wasn't the guy who crashed into the bollards 30 yards in....! I've got the English Champs fell race this sunday over in Stretton.... 14...

Yes, as someone mentioned above, it was Brentford away... was an absolute disgrace from City fans, whatever the feelings and circumstances... pure bullying.

My nephew's pack (which was a birthday present from me) was delivered last week. I ordered very early in August (obviously it didn't arrive in time for his birthday, but that was expected)

If i recall correctly, it was widely regarded as a good appointment.

Without wanting to bring up the past (which seems an everyday occurrence on here)..... people got so entrenched in their views on SISU etc during the real bad period (ie Northampton era), that i think they find it very hard to make any kind of concession when things start to head in a different...

Hope everyone enjoyed Nuneaton this morning. I had a bad day at the office. Very inconsistent. felt short of leg speed, and managed 39:00....... still it was my first road 10km for the best part of a decade, and i'd sooner have an off-day today than in the English Fell Champs next weekend...

:D Yes i'm pretty sure that was me... i recall standing near the start having a look round to see if i recognised anyone, and yes i think there was someone in a Northbrook top!

@Great_Expectations @Rich i'll be in the red&yellow vest of Godiva, and most likely wearing a baseball cap.... say hello if you spot me!

Nuneaton 10km on sunday. After last weekend's exertions on the fells i've been very tired this week. Attempted a bit of an interval session last night which didn't really go very well. So another easy day today (4 miles AM, 5 miles PM), and a couple of 3 or 4 mile runs tomorrow, should see me...

I've often parked at Watford Junction rather than Stanmore. Guaranteed a parking space, slightly shorter drive, and regular trains into Euston taking about 15-20mins. Can also get on the overground, and i think there's an underground connection in Watford too, should you need them.

Yeah a day pass on the tube was in the region of £12 last time i was down there (sometime in 2019)

8 is an achievable target. Any more than that would be dreamland.

Yeah i'd just run steadily for as many weeks as you can bear it it, before setting any goals re speed/time. It will be of massive benefit in the long run (sorry for the pun). I always say, until someone is capable of running say 4 times a week for a fair distance (say 10km), you will gain more...

Raced in the British Fell Champs today up on the North Pennines. It is usally a 4 race series, over varying race distances, but due to covid this year was a one-off, winner takes all race. Finished 95th which i was very pleased with, having never finished in the top 150 before in an...

I'm on a music forum, actually the forum closed and the regular posters moved onto a Discord server. Some of the content is well over the line, and there are regular flare-ups between members.... one of the rules is you have to have posted a photo of yourself... if you're going to chuck it...
