    Changed my outlook too. To be truthful, first two weeks of the season I kept going on to the BBC Championship tables to see where we were, before realising I was looking at the wrong league. Now I don't even look at the Championship results. No idea who's top and who's bottom.

    Linesman beten to death by players during match

    Just seems to be a bit of a trend, arguing and jostling officials. Have no idea where they have got that from. i mean, it's not as if professional players do that is it! :( Need to go to the officiating of the likes of Rugby and American Football where you don't answer back and the referee is...

    Linesman beten to death by players during match

    Linesman beaten to death by players during match In Holland. A match between 14 and 15 year old's. :(:(:(:(:( http://www.sportsnet.ca/soccer/2012/12/03/linesman_killed_soccer_players_netherlands/ Hope this never happens here. Already been a few reports of increased violence towards officials.

    Was for me at the start of the season. For many other City fans too. Very hard to get used to a fixture that is Colchester way or Bury at home. Very much embarrassing I would say. We need to get used to it though.

    40,000 the previous season when Carlisle won it and the season before that, there were over 70,000 there for the Southampton final. Anyone who says City fans won't be interested in a trip to Wembley for the JPT final is completely deluded.

    Chesterfield v Swindon, final last year at Wembley ...... 50,000 fans there. Season before 40,000 when Carlisle won and season before that when Southampton won it, 70,000! What a joke this trophy is eh!

    Last season at Wembley for the final of Chesterfield v Swindon there were 50,000 fans there. But let's just forget about the joke cup right ...... cos it's embarrassing. :facepalm:

    Fact is of course we don't mix it with the other clubs we used to mix it with! It may be embarrassing but this is an embarrassing league for us. It's embarrassing to be playing Carlisle and Leyton Orient and Bury every week, but that's just the way it is. For the Premier League you have the...

    Yeah. If we get to Wembley us supporters should just not buy any tickets and not turn up and then refuse to accept the trophy should we win it, despite the competition bringing in a wad of money into the club and creating a feel good factor throughout the city. Fook the poxy thing! :whistle:

    But Spurs are historically a very strong cup team and you have to just wonder how much of a hindrance the JPT is to a Sheff Utd who really do have such a great chance of automatic promotion. You look at the two teams tomorrow and you would have to say that this competition is much more important...

    There was still a big problem with the language. To be fair though, they don't half talk funny in Nuneaton don't they.

    I couldn't have been that bothered had we been knocked out either, but we are at the stage now that if we can get past Sheff Utd tomorrow then the light is at the end of the tunnel. Win this one and we are just two fixtures away from Wembley and the difference with the Sky Blues of course is as...

    Each and every to their own, but i think you are underestimating the impact of any potential trophy. This club has been starved of success for over 25 years. Any supporter under 30 probably isn't going to even remember the FA Cup win of 87. We get to the final of the JPT and you just watch how...

    Thing is, we are not in the Premier or the Championship. Had we been in the Prem then you could say we had a chance of the FA Cup perhaps. In the Championship. then maybe at least a good run in something. In League One the only chance of a trophy in reality is this! For us this is the trophy...

    Yep. Totally agree. And if they could totally fill the Tesco Stand just think how good the atmosphere could be and how it could help spur on the team. This game is massive. Win this and we could be well on our way possibly to a Wembley final.

    Good lad! It is so true though that many of those who show no interest whatsoever now will be wanting to be at the front of the queue for any Wembley visit.

    Straight knock out I think. Think it is two legs when it gets to the area finals.
