    4th Round draw

    I think that something along these lines is the only way to revitalise the competition.

    I posted this thread a couple of days ago. I did so under a new pseudonym, MrMagic as I wanted to keep responses to this separate to my normal alter ego on here. The thread disappeared and although I have no message to tell me so, I am assuming that you can only have one username. Anyway, here...

    Thread for the Oldies

    Good to see the old kiosk again. I used to love Black Jack sweets and would stop there if my mum had given me any pennies on the way to school at Corpus Christie to buy them. I also remember the cake shop just down the slope behind those lads.There were always wasps flying about in the shop window.

    Wasn’t it Jordan Clarke away at Derby. He was sent off I think.

    West brom attendance

    I don’t think that you can look at the top attendance by home fans (say 20k against Peterborough) and then make a case for that being our maximum number of attendees. You will always get the fans who come to most, even every home game and I would think that these make up the core of our...

    This forum - perspective

    Same people making the same comments week in week out. No context given to any criticism, no leeway given for the fact that Robins has brought us so far and might just have more of an insight than some bloke on a forum. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I have just given mine on the way...

    This forum - perspective

    I tend to avoid reading match threads these days. I never look at them or contribute to them at the time of the game as I am too wrapped up in proceedings on the pitch to look on here. I have just read through most of the Bournemouth match thread which was a big mistake. The negative comments...

    Match Thread Bournemouth away

    Reading all of this back it sounds like the boo boys have started on Dabo.

    Time to go Robins

    Bournemouth just sat back? Taxi for Parker! There are some real eejits on here!

    Scab?

    I went to most games in Northampton and stood on the hill. I didn't see any of those going in getting abuse. However we did receive some once from someone leaving the ground early while we were still looking at the bit of the pitch we could see. This guy objected to us being there and told us...

    One of the greatest games?

    My favourite too. We would have beaten Brazil that night we were so good.

    Crowd trouble

    I noticed them on the way in and didn’t really pay them much attention. On the way out they were a major obstruction to the flow of the crowd, also very difficult to see in the dark and also the crush of the crowd. I’m not sure what they were supposed to do.

    Crowd trouble

    You need to look back at the late eighties, have a look at the average gates of even the top teams. Football was on its knees and one of the biggest contributing factors was the type of moronic behaviour lots of us witnessed yesterday. We were trying to leave after the game yesterday with my 6...

    Reality check

    I think that is way off the mark. A foul is a foul, it's not dependant on how long a player holds onto the ball. Anyone who has watched our games this season knows that O'Hare is targeted by opposition teams, often for rotation fouls. His treatment at Barnsley and Blackpool was shocking. At...

    Derby crowd

    Although it's not showing as open, they still sell tickets in block 31. We usually sit in block 20 but because my second son is using one of his match package tickets tomorrow and also my grand daughter is coming to her second game, we swapped our ST plus 2 more for seats behind the goal, Block...

    David Speedie comments CWR

    I was at that too. He didn’t come across as a very nice bloke, in contrast to Pickering and Houchen who were both there and who seemed really decent people.

    Blackburn forum

    Well I’m not privy to the workings of Blackburn’s recruitment process but then again I don’t think you would be either. I’m pretty sure that Mowbray would have a very big say in the players that Blackburn bring in, just like Robins would here. If Blackburn had won yesterday they would be 7th as...

    So who was responsible for putting together the quality players all over the pitch?

    They are my top two coldest games too.
