    Tonights league 1 watch thread

    Draw would have been better, think our real league position will become apparent in the next couple of weeks as games in hand are played. Yeovil a point ahead with 2 games in hand, Notts County a point behind with 2 in hand, MK Dons a point behind with 3 games in hand.

    We've had some

    At a fiver a ticket, with 45% going to Crewe and 10% to the Football League, with matchday costs we're probably losing on the game.

    Takeover...

    How big a name in football globally are Coventry City? Not that big a name in Coventry most weeks, let alone in the rest of the nation/World. That's what big investors are looking for, a team that can give a global presence, Liverpool could give them that. Don't know why the fuck people would...

    Takeover...

    With football you can't predict how any money spent will deliver. Can spend millions and millions on players and managers, but if not the right ones then can still end up nowhere. Can spend very little on players and managers but if the right ones can have great success. Can often be just...

    Pleased about that, they can go on about Norwich for the next 25 years instead of us!

    Football must reform or face government intervention

    He was never Minister for Sport was he? Couldn't really be helped him being moved if he was as Labour lost the last election.

    Football must reform or face government intervention

    It does try a little hard nowadays. Wish The Framley Examiner would start again. but still have the odd look at the archives.

    Matt Smith

    The Time lord Matt Smith was actually an apprentice at Forest I think. The silky skills in the episode with James Corden were all his own work.

    Cwr call in

    You keep saying that we had a squad funded in the bottom three of the league last season. Any proof for that at all? Doncaster, Peterborough, Barnsley i'd imagine had less funds than ourselves. Even if we were in the bottom three for squad funds, we should have still mananged to get out with...

    The pet hates thread

    I don't know on Heroes, should have been cancelled after the first series, awful after that. Thought that Angel finished fairly well,a natural end and not dragged out too much like some can be. Agree on Firefly and Dollhouse, Carnivale is another that should definitely have been given more time.

    Crewe match. Anyone else got tickets but not going ?

    Club could make a fortune by "overbooking" like airlines do. Sell more tickets than there are seats available knowing that there will be cancellations and no-shows. After the game(after selling 50,000 tickets), announce that only the 15,000 who actually turned up are eligible for Cup-final...
