    Why our crowds are awful

    Please expand. You honestly believe that if we had much larger crowds at the Ricoh we would have still gone to Sixfields to a smaller capacity stadium? Very odd.

    Cheers for that. Good luck for the rest of the season.

    How can SP say this squad is better????

    Very true. Completely different team this year and we have changed the system too. Bit unfair to compare it to last year. Comparing how SP is doing of course is a different matter. You can look at how he has done over a period of time, but players wise, we almost have a new team out there this...

    Why we are struggling....

    Another thing you need to factor in is the ability or inability to get the crowd going and on your side. Perfect example on Saturday. Preston came out of the blocks all guns blazing, we were all very negative, hardly had any possession and the crowd were then immediately alienated. Crowds...

    Forget Rugby

    Each and every to their own, but I would say that American Football is at least 10 times more exciting than football. How many exciting games of football do we get a season watching the City? 4? 5? Less? I would say about 60-70% of American Football games are very exciting. I love the game so...

    What Happened?

    Thanks, Nick. :D Wasn't trying to say he was fast, just not a slouch, but maybe I haven't seen enough of him. Don't think we have too many slow players I would have said. Webster .... Johnson ...... Tudgay? Can't think of any others at the moment. Maybe I have missed someone.

    Forget Rugby

    Washington Redskins. Flatter to deceive for the most part. Stayed up til the early hours Friday morning to watch them play the NY Giants with great hope and they got totally slaughtered. :(

    GMK Glitch or GMK Gone?

    Not true. They had to roll up the pages into rolls to swat Wasps with.

    How can SP say this squad is better????

    I wouldn't say Baker is better than O'Brien for sure.

    Why our crowds are awful

    I don't think anyone was that good against Gilingham, it was still a special night though, a great atmosphere and we won. What more do people want to come back to a game other than a great time and a win? Not much else besides an exciting game, but the atmosphere was so brilliant it made the...

    What Happened?

    Well, have to put my hand up and say that with us at Sixfields and my not doing away games, I didn't see him at all last season. Can only judge on what I have seen this and at one point in one game he had the ball in our half and sprinted (or maybe have been half-sprinted :D) into the opposition...

    Why our crowds are awful

    That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. I am delighted the City are back and immediately went out and bought a season ticket. But because I am embarrassed that more people aren't going, you suggest that I don't go?

    Why our crowds are awful

    Well it did for me. Seemed like the start of something special. Made me think if we had 20,000 every home game we would win a lot more games than we would lose. Great atmospheres like that can really spur players on. After the Gillingham game quite a few people were talking play-offs.

    What Happened?

    Think he is quite quick to be honest, but can only do about 15 yard bursts and then he's knackered. Think it was either Gillingham or Yeovil where he had the ball in lots of space and he ran straight at the opposition defence, and definitely at pace, weaving his way as he went. He started off...

    Ex Player Watch

    FA Cup - Saturday 27th September 2014 Arguably the best individual performance of the round was at Terrace Road, where veteran striker Iyseden Christie, 37, scored six goals for Halesowen Town in their 7-1 win at 10th-tier side Ellistown & Ibstock United FC.

    What Happened?

    You may well be right. Not been overly impressed with anyone yet to be honest, O'Brien apart. Hoping Johnson will be a boon to the squad and that Nouble and Jackson will start bagging us goals with regularity, but McQuoid doesn't impress me much, Alsop and Tudgay and Swanson, not at all. It...

    What Happened?

    We have some degree of pace (Haynes is quick, as is Clarke, as is Jackson and Fleck is no slouch either. Not seen Coulibaly much at all, but he's supposed to be fast), but we do lack strength for sure. We've been here before when we have got outmuscled. makes me wonder why we went for players...

    Why our crowds are awful

    I still maintain however that the feel good factor of us coming home after all the pleading and begging, would have resulted in more interest than just that first game back. Was said then by many that the Yeovil crowd was down because it was two games in a week. Well on Saturday it was 2 weeks...
