  1. Irish Sky Blue

    Outcome

    I don’t think I have ever been so down and pessimistic about the future of our club. There have been so many down times in the past few years, the sale to Wasps, relegation to the fourth division and exile in Northampton. This feels far worse than anything that has happened in the recent past...
  2. Irish Sky Blue

    Outcome

    It sounds like this is going to take years to resolve. What will be left of the club if they are forced to play outside of the city for 5, 6, 7 years or more?

    Saturday, 3pm, Jimmy's Statue

    I’ll come along but I think there needs to be a definite plan of what happens. Standing around in Sky Blue but with no plan of action is going to be a bit lame. I like the flyers idea. I hope that all those calling for action at a Wasps game on other threads now commit to being there.

    The Next Statement

    I hate the fact that Wasps are in our stadium. I hate their logos, their flags, their club shop ( that used to be ours), their ticket office. I hate the fact that their games are on CWR, that their stories and reports are in the Telegraph. I look for their results and it pleases me when they...

    The Next Statement

    If you read some of the posts from OSB then the season in Northampton cost millions which Sisu had to cover, no doubt helped by player sales. I would imagine that Wasps are not blind to this and see it as their way of distressing Sisu in a way that Sisu are intent on distressing them with legal...

    Rule Changes for Next Season

    A few occasions last season the injured player still had to leave the field.

    Rule Changes for Next Season

    Also, what is supposed to happen when a player goes down injured after a foul which results in the offender being yellow carded? I thought that in this circumstance the injured player was allowed to resume without the need to go off. That seemed to be the case for a while but seems to have...

    Rule Changes for Next Season

    I understand why they are tinkering with things like this, but the easy way to stop any sort of time wasting is simply to add the time on. Why don’t referees do this? If time added on regularly 8, 9 10 minutes in stead of the current 3, 4, of 5 it might make teams stop doing it. Perhaps...

    Yawn yawn...

    I liked listening to Danny Baker. I thought he was a clever, entertaining presenter. ( not so clever with his tweet this week admittedly).

    What will they cry about

    I think there had to be more there than the 17k reported based on the fact that reported attendance for Morecambe was 15k. The attendance for NC was obviously several thousand more including a far greater away support than for Morecambe. One of the attendance figures was wrong,

    Worst Away Days

    I think that was the coldest I have ever been, not just at a football match.

    Just f*ck off Burge!

    Walsall keeper in the cup springs to mind straight away. I am sure I could think of more if I tried.

    Just f*ck off Burge!

    I have loved watching Thomas this season. I think he is a tremendous little player.

    Cry babies

    I can certainly confirm this. My dad was a miner in Binley Colliery. Very proud to be a miner’s son I am too!

    Disallowed goal

    Was he? I may have missed it but I didn’t see the flag go up for offside.

    Match Thread Doncaster Rovers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 4th May

    I went to the Checkatrade game at Cheltenham this season. There would have been around 400 City fans there. As a spectacle, the game was a waste of time as it was literally men (Cheltenham) against boys (our U23s. It was a waste of time and money as the game was barely competitive. I hope we put...

    Willis to Luton?

    I will be sorry to see him go. I think he has improved year on year and has always seemed an honest and level headed player. He also gave me one of my best footballing moments when he scored that goal last May.

    Will it be harder than first thought next season?

    I just caught the tail end of the promotion season in 1967. Like most fans on here I have never seen us have a championship or runner up season in full. That level of consistency, where you are winning most games and losing very few must be hard to achieve but great to watch. Being in, or close...
