This one seems to have sneeked up on me. As always I'm not at all confident about this, but what's new?

I've gone with 1-1 as we do better with the Promotion/Play-Off contenders - even though CUFC are outsiders.

1-2 away win!!  Come on, got a good feeling about this one!

I've had a right touch of luck this morning so hope it carries on throughout the day. Us to sneak it by one goal.

expand ..........................

Took the car in for new tyres this morning, but they couldn't get one of the wheels off because the locking wheel nut was fucked. It would just so happen that the wheel they couldn't get off had the baldest tyre and would more than likely fail my MOT tomorrow. They were fairly certain it was the nut that was rounded and not the key and advised I booked it in to a mechanic to have the fucker drilled out = £££.

Drove home with only one new tyre on and dug out my spare locking nut key, just to try it like, and with a bit of brute force (whacked the wrench on and me jumping up and down on it) it came off! Took it straight back to the tyre place and had the other tyre fitted. Result.

I am about to have have two new tyres put on the Flashmobile in ten minutes.

£61 all in each...very good...i only go for cheapos.

Im off at around 2-30ish........i have a good feeling about tonight.

2-1 away win...

Going to Leeds with a win would be great (I'm dreaming).

Tonights Fixtures

Brighton v Southend
Carlisle v Leyton Orient
Colchester v Swindon
Hereford v Bristol Rovers
Leeds United v Yeovil
Millwall v Northampton
Franchise v Huddersfield
Peterborough v Scunthorpe
Stockport v Hartlepool
Walsall v Crewe

2-1 to us.  I'm going to predict us for a win every time we play now, on the basis that we're going down if we keep drawing all the time.  (Outstanding piece of logic there, I'm sure you'll agree.)

In all four divisions, only Swansea have drawn more games than we have so far this season (with us tied in second place along with Morcambe, Cardiff and some other team that I can't remember.)

i've gone for 1.1 but as we performed well on saturday, it will probably be an awful perfomance and we'll get stuffed.,

and I get to go spinning tonight! woooooo

another draw I reckon

2-1 win to us tudur Jones scores on his debut

I'm going for the Town to nick it by 1 goal.  Doubt that we will keep a clean sheet either.


Those are the key matches tonight elsewhere for us tonight, IMHO.  Only really Leeds have a chance of the playoffs from those 3, so they will be going for it and should turn Yeovil over, but Carlisle need the points and have played more games than others around them, so hoping they do the job against the O's

2-1 town after a late Colchester surge.

To be honest I don't give a fuck about the other teams. Aslong as we win our games, then thats the best we can do.

3-1 Town.  Easy, easy, Easy.

At least you will win £3+ 

How's Things Arriba?

Delightful optimism! I'm going for a draw, sadly.

good fella.yourself?

Looking forward to this. Leaving work at 4pm to get up there. (all on my own)

You'd think a draw would be a good result but we desperatly need a win tonight. IF we play like we did on Saturday i can see us sneaking it. It's a big IF though...

this is big. If we play like we did saturday we'll win 2-1 I reckon, play like we did against Cheltenham and we'll get beat. Draws are bno good any more, so let's go balls out and try and win it.

I fancy it.

[url width=320 height=240]http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HN3tigaU1Bk/RjnZ0MGgtNI/AAAAAAAAARI/NhsYLYHsLEc/s320/smallviolin.jpg[/url]  :D

I have a feeling Tudur Jones will do well during this loan spell. No basis for this opinion, just a gut feeling.

Happy days here. Sun is shining, work is finished and im contemplating a bottle of red wine to go with my evenings entertainment of listening to the town draw tonight.

alright for some.i have an evening of driving in our shitty british weather to look forward to.

Hahaha thanks for understanding!

hehe couldn't resist - sorry :D

Luci you are on a role today!  :D

Starting to wonder if i'm leaving too late at 5, particulary as i have to navigate the dartford tunnel! If you see anyone wandering in flustered at half time it will probably be me.

Ah fuck it!  2-1 to us!

4-1 colchester.

Talking to a Swansea fan mate of mine today...and he reckons Tudor Jones has not really recovered fully from his ligament injury sustained at the CG.  By which he meant he's lost teh zip, that made him look a decent prospect.

Your Swansea fan chum has nothing to do with my gut feeling Reg.

I think Bury could go up - do you have a Bury friend to rain on my parade aswell?

:)

I'll do it. Bury are shite.

Some could be quick to point out that shite Bury could be in the division above next season!

;)

Today is shit,therefore we're going to lose. someone,probably cox,will break they're leg so our season will definitely be over.

or we will win and i'll be put in a better mood for the rest of the week.

I bet you a pound that they aren't.

I've got a good feeling about tonight, which is totally unjustified given the fact that I have piles of work which stopped me from actually going to the game! On that basis, 2-1 to Town

Yeah, doubt we'll get a draw. again.:)

i hadn't thought of anything to say if we draw...maybe we wont.

I'm staying in a shitty hotel in Dundee..... but the last time I stayed away in Scotland Town won.... so lets hope for a repeat of that....

(Well, there was also loud shagging coming from the room next door as well..... that coupled with Ed Hadwins commentary was a disturbing combination.... lets hope theres not a repeat of that)

Can't ever recall meeting a Bury fan...club I've a bit of time for though.

Give it another half a dozen games and it will be time to focus on the possible make up of L2 for next season.  A cursory look indicates it being horribly norvern.

Hold on, isn't fatbury also a Bury fan - hence the name...?

It's past my bedtime.

I want to wake up tomorrow to the news of a win.

I insist.

Good night Bangkok. Sweet dreams.

I'm in a grumpy mood now. Bad day at the office and all that. Pleeeeeeeaaaaaassseeeee STFC, put a smile back on my face........

I'm hoping Bournemouth have enough to stay up.

Looks like they might Deev. Only a point behind now I think.

I have a feeling tonight will be a toughly contested draw.

Swindon Town: Peter Brezovan; Kevin Amankwaah, Gordon Greer (Capt), Sean Morrison, Jamie Vincent; Hal Robson-Kanu, Owain Tudur Jones, Michael Timlin, Anthony McNamee; Simon Cox Billy Paynter

Substitutes: Phil Smith (GK), Mark Marshall, Hamdi Razak, Lilian Nalis, Jerel Ifil

Macca in away from home. Surprised by that but he has been ace recently.

hmm team seems ok. something doesnt seem quite right that I cant put my finger on.

fingers crossed and hoping for the best

Hamdi Razak on the bench - WHOOP! Headless chicken turned hero I hope.

I want him be be ace so we can sing Razak, Razak, Razak instead of attack, attack, attack.

Razak on the bench..maybe thats wrong. we'll see.....dont see us wanting to defend for much of this game

COME ON TOWN! The shit is incredibly close to hitting the fan we need 3 pts draws arent good enough anymore - Macca's inclusion is a positive sign of intent.

2-3 us - last minute winner from Razak, Cox and Jones to get the others

Do we sing attack attack attack?
Havent heard that chant for years and years.

It sort of started in the town end for the Scunthorpe game.

Maybe we should start the 'Razak' replacement version. I'm sure it'd go down well.

I like it.

Sound a bit crickety to me!!!

Does anyone else think that wednesday night games are better than tuesdays?

Im still hungover on tuesdays, but wednesdays are much better.

I'm not fussed either way. Mid week games tend to be a bit shit, it's all about saturday for me.

Is it just me - or is the STFC World stream silent?

And right on cue - it's got sound :)

Can hear the town fans already.

HAHA

Ballbag

fuck sake fuck off

48 fucking seconds.
Cunts

Goal, 1 - 0 down.

here we go then

Ace

What a load of bollocks, we are fucking shit!

Can't fucking get on STFC World..... so I can't listen at all!!!!!

Bastards.

Absolute fucking joke. Why don't we just bend over for the remaining 89 minutes and then forfeit the rest of the games ... it'll be less painful.

Nearly 2-0. We are cunts.

Jesus Christ! Should have been two

Good start then.

hahaha we suck.

how often do we come back from going behind?

Ooooh. Another chance for Colchester.

Lets make 'em pay for their misses. Or do nothing at all...

I predict we get butt fucked!!

BBC can't keep up with our shitness.

At least we won't have to worry about the last 5 mins - cheers  :doh: :bye:

Oh dear :(

We normally take the lead first. I wasn't ready for this.

Oh dear

I dont believe it, all season I've said we wont go down but we're fucked now.

I cant believe we're going back to L2.

I let the lady check her e-mail and we fall behind. Coincidence?

It ain't over 'till it's over DV.

Malpas would have kept us up.

start praying...

Only two teams in this division not winning games and we're one of them.

I'm quite relaxed now. Tends to happen when we fall behind early.

That's called resignation Rich.

1-0 liverpool

Scousers scored :(

ah ball bags! swindon are down thats for shizzle!

I'm like that wherever we are. Today however...

It's important that we don't get a right pasting as goal difference is currently in our favour, relative to the others around us.

torres has been watchin cox celebrate...exactly the same as cox at leicester if memory serves me right.

C'mon chaps - smile :)

Is it wrong that i'm not overly bothered we are losing?

There's that resignation again.

juve score against chelsea

we only win when i'm in norway...

what john said..

Now that was definately Dave is towel throwing shock.

Finally some good news!

Here's positivity for you. We can only drop one place tonight.

Only one place? FUCKING GET IN!

:)

of course, what goes on below us is of little relevance.

24th, 23rd, 22nd and 21st are all the same.

No we can't not unless we let in quite a few and brighton score a few as well.

Dunno if you're listening to the game, but I find it easier to detach myself when I'm only following on here.

I never listen to Town.

Vey wise, this is horrible listening at the moment.

Yes it's an elitest comment but the thought of being in a lower league than Exeter City saddens me greatly.

I am listening. Even when im there though i dont get as riled as i used to. Just sort of accept it

Fair point.......ever better news then, we're unlikely to drop a place tonight.......

penalty in liverpool game...

we are however, likely to end up further away from the teams above us.

and?

BRIGHTON LOSING, YES!!

Angry Dave is gone? Nooooooooooooo. Red and ginger is a good look. :)

I know what you mean though.

I turnt off after the first 49 seconds, have things improved yet?

2-0 Scousers

Gerrard, pen

Just thought I'd quote that Dan.......

it shouldnt have been a pen,and it was scored.

YEOVIL LOSING!!

We'reeeeee doooooooooooomed!

Angry Dave has gone and been replaced by ironically criticising those around him dave.

HEREFORD LOSING!!

WAHOOOOO! ;)

Beat me to it DV. Good stuff. Hopefully we can nick a draw.

Optimism - YEY!

That would move us up a place at the mo as well.

Lets hope Orient, Crewe & Northampton lose to.

Paynter misses sitter from 6 yards. But was offside anyway. Probably.

Did they say on the radio how many swindon fans are there?

Orient winning ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

paynter you stupid cunt

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

cunting leyton orient are cunting winning

I can't do my normal report the goal first game because I'm in brizzle having to watch the liverpool game. Come on Madrid

It seems as though we've missed a lot of sitters recently.

around 250 apparently.

that leaves the gap between being below water and above water to 3 points...

We need a new striker badly

I'm beginning to feel sad now. It's kicking in.

I told a lie as well. A point would not move us up a place at all.

We should be 2-3 down, and we're not and it sounds like we're getting back into it. We could still get something here.

You're right, Cox has missed loads.

Tudur-Jones sounds like he's getting involved.

Rickie Lambert has got his brace against Hereford.

...is he?

2-0 Orient. Thats a bad result for us

Penalty for Swindon

pen pen pen

penatly, oh dear....im shtting it

get in!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAY cox is going to miss.

Cox takes it and SCORES

Come on Coxy!

thank fuck for that.

PENALTY!!!

yipeeeee.....Now lets hold on and win

Get in

you lot are all at least a minute ahead of me...

ARGH. PLEASE.

THANK YOU!

[EDIT] It took ages to post that!

wooooooot!

Woooooo

C'mon Town - Don't fuck this chance up.

"sends the keeper the wrong way,down the middle"

how can the keeper go the wrong way if the striker doesnt go any of the two ways.

but hey...yeeaaaaaaaaaaah...we gave them a head start ;D

we're staying up as fucking lower midtableians.

hurrah!

and on other good news- i flicked to the chelsea game and saw obi mikel get landed on that whacked! good times

We might just be doing the butt fucking now :)

We go above Orient if we win. 17th place.

simple really, which ever way the keeper goes is the wrong way as Cox hasnt hit it either way.

Get  innnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

whoop

Gary Alexander has put Northampton 1-0 down

Well done lads.  But it's three points we need now.  Only three will do.  On the basis that we're bound to choke again and let one in in the 98th minute, we need 2 more goals.  At least.

hooray!

cox's 20th as well, top stuff

Shhh.... We've as good as won.

We just scored for fuck sake!! Some optimism please.

Edit. Apologies, continue with the truth.

I know we need 3 points, but if we get a point after that 1st 20 minutes I'll be happy.

All the players are shit and shouldn't be playing professional football

Ive betting on (in order of returns) 2-1 to us, 3-1 to us and 1 - 1 draw... looking good. :D

Chelsea 1-1

Sweet. I missed that reading the Franchise (I promise not to swear again) thread.

My internet drops out every five minutes so it was nice to come back...its gone again...back again...to see we'd scored a pen. Bet I've missed something else now.

Essien gets one for Chelsea. I really dont want them to win but Essien is a quality player

Yeovil 2-0 down

oh, do fuck off Brez

oh ffs.

fucking brez....

i could do better

2-1 down. Cuntty cunt. Brez at fault dodgy punch

crap.

oh FFS!!!!!

brez is shit. get rid

OK I was looking good for about 5 seconds.

Does anyone know the Slovak for 'Catch it you fucking prick.'?

Yep, new keeper in the summer please.

why wait till the summer, new keeper in at half fucking time.

oh, that's two in two games then.

I wonder what league Brez will be playing in next year,he really is shit and im having no arguements.

i hope danny kills the keeper

what happened?

did he try to punch it instead of catch it and fuck up again?

Get rid of brez and smithy and get 2 new keepers in the summer and and get rid of that goalkeeping coach too, i bet he tells brez to punch the ball.

Brighton 1-1 :(

We can't get a break can we. Jesus.

oh dear :suicide:

New goalkeeper on loan please Danny.

we've got a goal when according to the bbc website we've had 36% of possession, i'd say we'd caught our break..

I've just been watching cox's goal against fenerbache to cheer me up. Wasn't there another ace one he scored recently? Can someone tube me up?

Sad thing is - Phil Smith could have easily done the same!

Bad punch to edge of area. Headed back in and Platt scored simple header. As far as I can tell.

Leyton Orient 36 - 39
Northampton 34 - 38
Crewe 35 - 38
Yeovil 35 - 38
--------------------
Swindon 35 - 35
Brighton 34 - 33
Hereford 33 - 30
Cheltenham 34 - 22

how's Owain Glyndwr getting on?

It's looking bleak.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtM8Zh1DQzc

It's looking very bleak.

[James May]

OH COCK!

[/James May]

They had the gall to raise our hopes by getting back into it :/

I was only expecting 1 point from Dongs, Col and Leeds. Not sure why I feel so disshartened.

Even if it pans out like that we still have to play Yeovil, Brighton, ....., etc. It is not impossible. But I am braced for impact from the bump to league 2.

Oh I LOVE this song on the radio now :)

To quote Patches O'Houlihan from the excellent and often under-rated Dodgeball (2004):

'Holy hell, Son.  You're about as useful as a cock-flavored lollipop.'

If someone could provide a translation to Slovak, I'd be grateful.

The Killers are fucking wank.

Sadly i am too  :(

So are we at the moment but this song is cheering me up

Thats a bit harsh. Who do you like then?

something like 'you son, are a cunt'...

just a guess mind

New goalkeepers please, preferably by Leeds - how many points have our 2 keepers cost us this season?  

Ha ha I love that quote

what killers song was it.

Liverpool make it 3. Real are being torn apart

Spaceman

    
Sväté peklo syn. Chystáte ako užitočné ako kohút-ochucená lízátko.

That's Babylon Zoo

nothing against there top quality earlier stuff

No modern stuff really. It's sooooooooooooo boring. Last new band that was any good was The Music or The Bees.

Can you write that out phonetically please?

No, he can't

get fucked :-)

The colchester commentators are bumming Macnamee. They reckon he's been our best player.

:D

come on Swindon, Southend, Carlisle, & Walsall

Don't they only have 2 albums, 3 max? I thought you needed at least 5 before fan boys start talking about "earlier stuff".

But even I'll admit that the singles off the first album are some quality pop fun.

We'll win 3-2.

Cox with another and a goal in the 85th minute from Kanuuuuu

They are talking about climbing all over the back of him now. Its getting pervy  :eek:

3-0 orient bollocks :doh:

I've started watching the cricket.

come on town. corner.

I went to "Budget Boozer" across the road from Ally's at half time, some dude thought he knew me but I didn't know who he was.

True Story.

Sounds like we are having a go at least.

I find it really hard to get engaged with games when i'm not there, i've paid no attention to this whatsoever (should i break that up with hyphens?) really.  The result will matter just as much as normal but the the games from which i am absent just seem so distant to me, it's probably the wine...

come on!!!!!

Walsal beating crewe 1-0

Thats what you get for being an adver media whore

Just got back from work, it's 2-1 to them yes?

That's my prediction on the prediction league and I'd win money off it. It'd be nice if we won though...But I agree with KT, I don't care us much as about us getting the points back as much as I would at home or an away game I was there. Not sure if it's apathy or just because I'm not expecting anything from this.

I think I get more cheerful about Swindon when we're shit. I enjoy it more, less pressure or expectation. I think it helps that I seem happier than everyone one else for some relative joy factor action.

Compared to mid-table that is, not when we're doing proper good.

It's a sign of my growing celebrity. Reality TV here I come!

crewe going 1 down means we're not 2 points from safety....a win for us...well thats never going to fucking happen is it.

Stop dreaming DV - keep the pessimism.

I'm not sure I can handle recession and relegation all in one go.

Why do all the bad words start with 're'?

Leeds 4-0 Yeovil.

Roll on the weekend.

repossession. regression.

Hereford 3-0 down, Yeovil 4-0 down.

if it goes down to goal difference!!

I always say I enjoy a relegation battle as opposed to mid-table crapness. But I'm not actually enjoying it now we are in the relagation zone.

Also Lambart, Platt, Beckford all scoring 2+ goals tonight so also my "Cox top scorer E/W" bet is looking crap.

Redundancy.

revolution!

realism dick!

regret, retaliation

incidentaly including today i will miss at least 4 games in a row, 4 games at this stage of the season is a lot, especially when one is dirty leeds, why is the ski season during the footy season in europe?  with better organisation the world could be so much better...

Reading.  (That's the large town, not the activity.)

Retard

retardation

-gay. beten

My apologies :)

Keep the faith, supporting Swindon requires a certain level of masochism.

Keep the faith - we've got plenty of good results against top 6 teams so far

reproduction...

regurgitation

reape

2-2 get in Robbo-Canoe

bloody hell robbo kanu

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Kanu kanu kanu

oh yes

ive changed my mind...sign him up

yessssssssss

kanu is my best mate.
he's a legend in my eyes

woopee

fucking happy days! i may have to revise my opinion of him....

Marvellous.

Three points, lads.  Three points.

always said he was good

Possession:

66%     34%

This needs an exorcism.

fuck yea

draw is still not good enough, still below the line

heres a novel idea, lets fucking win

Again please, please, please, please don't fuck this up.

Get the fucking hell in

Lets get a cunting win COME ON

woot

Haha me too!

goal machine. woot!

Brez noooooo. ooooh. Got away with it.

I predict a Smith appearance Saturday, brave aren't I.

I cant get excited about us scoreing knowing we will conceede again :cry:

and brez nearly fucks up again

hes awesome

reoffending (peados)

fucking brez nearly fucked up again

Mr. Consistancy.

Brezovan is on thin fucking ice!!

This goalie need an exorcism.

What the fucks he doing :doh:

Kanu scored - exactly as i predicted

Smith is worse.

What score did you predict Bob?

Bringing Phil Smith into the line-up at such an important stage is a big risk though.

no he isnt,hes equally as bad but not worse.

oh i timed that well to come and check the score! go town!

Well kindly predict a fucking win as well, then, and put me out of this misery.

now predict something else good.

Maybe. He's made just as many if not more errors than Brez this season though.

at least theres one positive with him then

Brez is only doing what he's coached to do..... He never used to punch and prick about, he always went through players to catch the ball, now he's punching and prancing around.

Saying that I can't hear whats going on, as my internet connection here in Dundee is shite....... he could be punching five year olds for all I know.

Remember when we said we had two of the best goalkeepers in the league?

Yep, they were the same two players.

Brez is now making Smith look better than he is. We are doomed no matter who we put in goal. I suggest Mcnamee has a go.

go bennettio!

I think he punches more because of the injury a few years back.

uhh No, at least Smith commands his box unlike Brez, I know we don't want to keep swapping keepers but the last few games Brez has looked dodgy.

Cunts. OTJ cocks up this time 3-2

NOT AGAIN

[ he could be punching five year olds for all I know.
[/quote]

Why am i laughing at that  ;D

3-2 fucking joke.

fuck sake.

what the point?

I predicted we would win 3-2 and Kanu will score - Cox is going to get the other one. (Although I predicted the scorers the other way round)

Cox will score in 85th minute....so hold on!

That is 2 goals that Tudor Jones has cost us.....is he fit ?

We really are doing our best to help Colchester to win

:(

That is that.

bullshit

Cunty fuck fuck cunt fuck

I like this betting against us thing, it softens the blow a bit.

109-8

powell b anderson

I have gone past the indifferent, through so bad it's funny and now I feel the rage building.

Fucking useless cunts fuck off every single one of you mother fuckers. Just fuck off and don't come back.

3,827

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

Ignore my last post.

Unless you want to believe we will win 4-3 (cox and Timlin)

oh.

3827 attendance? That's shit.

there all cunts

right, im switching off on some bizzare reasoning it will make us win....

I'd rather be 10th and getting crowds like that than 21st with 6,000 every week.

Liverpool on telly though

:D

3827....Jesus christ, we had bigger crowds in pre-season.

They thinking about playing at Leeds......all goals have come from mistakes - crazy

Will we get that many next season? In League 2!!!

But they're winning.

Yes

Just a thought....but it's a small town and Col U are punching above their weight?

Fair play to them.  The fact that they're doing as well as they are with a sub-4,000 fan base is quite an achievement if you ask me.  (Which no one did, I know.)

We want Razak.
We want Razak.
We want Razak.

Kanu off, Marshall on. God 'elp us.

Why not. Might aswell.

Didn't they just get a new stadium built? How many does it hold?

Marshall on for Kanu

Kanu off, Marshall on. God 'elp us.

cunt off, cunt on

10,000

3,827

Lovely stuff.

Meh. Relegation isn't the end of the world. Might help rejuvenate some spirit at the club if we can put in a reasonable campaign. God knows we need it.

Natural right footer on the right, Marshall plays more direct as well, cant be any worse than some of the others on the pitch

mr miage directs porn?

Possession
70%    30%

Chelsea 2 - Juve 2

Offside.....gay

with so many players out of contract - no one will come here and we'll be a wank L2 for the rest of my life...

Anger, denial, acceptance, ...........and then two teams above us go into administration

cunt!

Bayern Munich 6-1 Sporting (agg 11-1)

Jesus Motherfucking Christ.

Yeah maybe. Not bothered.

Even if we get relegated I see the players out of contract thing as more of a plus.

Is that 4-2, or just a general venting of frustration?

I agree as we don't deal with agents and had difficulty getting new players in the summer, it would prove even more difficult should we go down but these bunch of clowns need to fuck off!

I blame the credit crunch!

That's my worry. No guarantees we'd come back, we aren't "too big" for league 2.

Ahh but they will as we will be one of the few stable clubs, and Wilson is a big enough name for players to want to play for him

bunch of clowns? i presume you're not referring to the board?

I think the fan/board relationship is going to take a bit of a knock shortly.  Will be interesting to see how Fitton, Watkins at al respond.

Possession
74%    26%

Is that a record?

Didn't the recent agent fee table thing show that there's not much connection with position and willingness to pay agent fees? Although I guess any difference gets hightened when you have to sign a lot of frees.

No of course not, i was referring to these useless cunts that we have playing for us.

How long left?

I dont think so...

I do

have we thrown on a 3rd striker yet?

Akanni-Sunday Wasiu is on for Platt.

I think we will go on a 3 match winning streak during our run of "6 pointers", all will be forgotten as we will be safe enough then we will just bumble into some more inconsistant form.

It's the "re..." effect. All bad things start with re  ... or have re in them. Brez, credit crunch ...

long enough for a 4th

I think it will too. The new boards biggest mistake hasn't been Malpas or taking too long to appoint Wilson, it's the "Championship in 3 years" nonsense they spouted when they first took over - stood against all there other signals of running the club as a tight, leak-proof, ship.

No don't be silly we don't do that

Nope, and no movement on the bench, according to Ed.

IF we can bounce straight back it wouldn't be the end of the world by any means, it might put us a year or so behind our plans but in the grand scheme of things a choice between season of mid-table obscurity in league 1 or a promotion from league 2 i'd probably go with seeing us win most games - unfortunately it might not work out that way, although i suspect it probably would, especially if we could keep hold of our actual football players

Bayern Munich 7-1 Sporting (agg 12-1)

This is amusing me slightly.

Annoyingly, much of what they have been doing is right.  I'm not going to turn on them myself, but I expect many others will.

1 minute to go. Razak to come on. This annoys me. Why fucking bother.

Razak coming on

Brighton losing 1-2

1 minute left and now he decides to bring Razak on? Surely that shold have been done 10-15 mins ago?

Which helps.

I just remembered that i had £5 on Swindon to go up this year, what a cunt i am for believing that pre-season hype. :doh:

4 mins.

I think I agree with everything there. And whilst I see it worrying that we'd have no safety net from the non-league, I still think I've got enough fan arrogance to keep the belief that it could never happen too us.

Big Club small league might suit us for a few years, even if we can't get out straight away.

cunty cunt off, cunt face on

Why does Wilson never throw 3 up earlier?

Razak on for last 4 mins...too little too late

Go on Razak! Do 'em!

I think the fans took one season of L2, almost like a hitting rock bottom, cant get any worse, bottoming out before we start rising up.

A second season in the basement within 4 seasons isnt fucking good enough and I wont be paying to watch L2 football next season, thats a fucking fact and you can quote me on it.

Well said, I agree! 

Edit - apart from the paying bit....I'm a fool and will still go :cry:

Thank goodness he's not Rezak

That makes things better then. If we can't win our own games everything else is useless.

Knee jerk

Other than Orient winning, results have been kind to us tonight - one postive at least! By the time we hit the big games after Leeds we could have been playing a lot of catchup

DV don't bother then. If we go down so be it. I'll still be going regardless.

crewe 90th minute equalizer, perfect...

Done. You'll be there

I'm more likely to go if we get relegated which means that DV has to buy me a season ticket. Silly glory supporter.

Cunts. Fuck off. All over 3-2. Wankers the lot of 'em.

Crewe equalised.

Which makes things worse. If we won tonight we'd be better off.

Final whistle.

Balls.

FT.

FUCK OFF YOU BUNCH OF GYPO CUNTS

Winding up DV after we lose might almost make up for it. Let's send him over the edge.

So........ Let the carnage begin.

You don't say...

Goodnight all

Keep re out of football!

the difference in class can't be much more that when utd dicked all over roma a couple of years ago.

i think the champions' league suprises teams sometimes, the last thing most teams expect in the competition is for teams to be so open and gung-ho.

people will state it but the competition is brilliant, absolutely no two ways about it

I'll be no where...

One win would take us out yet.

It just pisses me off. So what if everyone around us lost. So did we!! I've said before, I don't give a shit about other teams. All that matter is us, its in our hands. If we can't win games then what hope have we got!

You'll be dead.

I wasn't expecting any points tonight, same as against Leeds. A point would have been nice, but wouldnt have made a huge amount of difference.

Other results have gone "OK" so all in all I think i'll quickly forget about tonight.

For me, the serious shit starts against Southend at Home and then onwards.

Are you still here?

a win would take us out of the relegation zone provided yeovil and crewe don't pick up any points.

I hope not...

Think tonight proved that the old adage "It's in our own hands" is completely fucking REdundant in our case, as when its in our hands we tend to gift goals.

This.

Although I'm going to Leeds and therefore we'd better do okay.

Sorry, that sounded a bit threatening. Star wars quote.

Can see us getting a good beating at leeds saturday just like yeovil did tonight.

leave it out dan, that's like top four prem club fans saying they wouldn't follow their team if they didn't qualify for champions' league.

if you fucked off you'd be no better than an Franchise fan - we stand for real football fans not the plastic invasion of the last 10+ years

i actually thought better of you

i'm not saying we shouldn't care what happens to us but if i ever here you sing 'where were you when you were shit' to any other team in a few years if we bounce back i'll give you a piece of my mind don't you worry

giving up is all the rage!

Come on. I want Danny Wilson preferably unleashing much rage and fury.

Goal difference may yet be a factor...although we haven't had a real thrashing yet this season, you can see this lot chucking the towel in sometime soon.

Incidentally Wilson will have had the same number of games that MM had on Saturday, 14, and there can be no chance even if we win that he won't have got as many points.

Strange, that no one is calling for his head.

im not going again until we are in the premiership.

kinky tom has turned into DMR


i'm not going again until northampton away

Come on danny, go fucking mental!

Too calm. I want limbs torn off with his bare teeth.

I wouldn't be suprised if it happened soon. I wouldn't be one of them though.

no reason to! he has inherited a shit team and it needs a revamp

Wilson out!

I've sort of presumed in my head that Wilson will stay even if we get relegated. Odd that it hasn't come up in my mind.

We still have to play most of the bottom teams yet. It's not all doom and gloom.

DV gone nuts this evening (this will end up as another tef classic moment)

Some have more anger now, than when Mikey d was in charge.

haha, someone texted in as jfw's earmuffs

The teams that normally beat us. I maintain, we'll know our fate by the end of March.

i have?  seriously i thought at least us lot would be above that shit, i saw us from a box in the prem at old trafford and on the terraces of accrinton & stanley and as far as i'm concered there's little difference; we're not above rochdale or macc town fans, just like sheff utd or bolton fans, or even chelski aren't above us - that is unless we throw our toys out of the pram and behave like spoilt shits.

i don't want to see us go down again but if we do and fans that i thought better of give up on us i will be more disappointed in them than the team to be honest

The general consensus under MM was that we had a decent side , but a shit manager.

The bald fact is that in the same number of games, Wilson has achieved less wins and points.

haha i was hoping they would get a mention!

seems we were wrong and didn't want to admit we were just plain shit

Danny Wilson was the first to dismiss the "it's not MY team" thing though.

We've had plenty of time to sort things out. Safe or relegated we need to radically change this squad.

The one thing this club has not had over the past few years in its management is stability.  Since King we have moved through Iffy, Wise, Sturrock and Malpas rather quickly.  My opinion is, whatever happens between now and the end of the season, this is Danny Wilson's team and should be for at least the next two years.  Let him build a team that he can really call his, then judge him on that.

100% agree

Relegation or not it's a total rebuild.

me too, we have to find a future from somewhere and i trust him to find it for us, it's about time we had faith in someone other than the 'step up the ladder' folks we've had recently - MM excluded naturally....

You wouldn't call the SPL a step up?

;)

i think the wink means i don't need to answer that...

Indeed. He did alright though didn't he!

jason drysdale may have been the greatest vacume cleaner repair man ever, some things we just don't hear about...

Touche Kinky.

3 poor peices of defending cost us again, the 3rd a right rickett from Sean i think, not sure whther its because they have no confidence in brez, but panicing cost us dear, oh and shooting practice wouldnt go amiss, some shocking shooting tonight god knows how many times we hit the back of the stands, if we could have got some more on target their goalie didnt look much, didnt think anyone had a stinker as they def put the effort in, but no one really stood out, disappointing as they were no better than us and were there for the taking.

Oh i forgot they must have the worlds shortest footballer, he could have been 5 foot at a big stretch, and the little bastard still scored!

Albino cunt.

Poor performance all round from us, not sure I would have thrown Tudor straight into the midfield like that without at least a couple of days on the training pitch with the team.

At least now backwards logic dictates we will definately win at leeds.

Just got back. Most of the team were shit today. Brezovan specifically never caught one ball in the first half and was to blame for one of the goals. Would like to see Phil Smith back in goal to see if he can get the number 1 shirt back. Brez was shit, Timlin was shit. Cox appears to have given up. Macca had his moments, Marshall dove as soon as he came on as he did against Frecklington on Saturday. For the first 25 minutes none of the team knew what they were doing or seemed to know where they should be playing. Its going to be very difficult now so stay up but not impossible. If we can limp through this season and stay up, we need a massive cull whether we be in L1 or L2. Doesn't matter, The players simply dont seem to care. We will play well Saturday as its against a decent side. Next week is an absolutely massive week. Lose the next 3, then we are well and truly down. I think Wilson will neeed to look at bringing his own backroom staff in, in the summer but will it really do anything??? We just looked completely clueless and there didnt ever really look to be a game plan. Players didnt run for anything and just stood there blaming each other half the time.

does anyone on here still rate Brezovan? - Granted I've only seen him about 10 times but I haven't once felt confident with him in net. It is so frustrating to have to read 'from a Brezovan flap' or 'from a poor punch from Brezovan' etc. We should have cashed in on this fella when we had the chance and got a proper keeper in.   

Frecklington is'nt at MK Gazza, and as for Marshall diving, that was a definite foul as was saturdays from Lewington.
Brez- Shaky first half, too much punching which cost us, second half he caught everything and looked better.
Manky, started v badly and only a bit better after that
Vincent, average
Morrison, clear error for the 3rd and pretty sure it was him leaving platt unmarked for the others, long throws not much else.
Greer, steady.
Macca, good outlet but didnt do much damage, and shock of shocks a bollocking for a bad tackle!
Timlin, crap
Tudur jones, i'll be polite and say i didn't notice him doing anything rubbish.
Kanu, good goal and was looking our most threatening player, not sure why he was taken off.
Paynter-huffed and puffed, missed a sitter of a header 1st half.
Cox, not very good, poor shot/pass selection, played too deep.

Ground not bad, steps very steep and a little breeze blockish but not as bad as leicester.
Car park!!! Appalling, needed a boat to get to the stadium, they need to look at that sharpish.
Programme statto needs to be sacked littered with errors on us, and even had Nardiello playing for us!!
Result poor, and could have gone either way at 2-2 they upped their game, we sat back, game over!

I kept faith in him to recapture his form. He hasn't, and neither had Smith. Brez has had a chance and can't complain if he is dropped.  Would still like to know whether the attempted punching  is down to coaching or an individual descision. Either way I don't blame Granville really.

We have gone from a situation where we had 'two good keeper with one needing to leave sooner or later because they are too good to sit on the bench' to where we are today - they can both sod off!

Honestly though I still don't know why we have gone backwards so quickly. Sure we lost Miguel, Robbo and Zaboub - is that all it took to send us into shittyness? Or is it all abot confidence? Or what?

Oh fucking deary me!  What a disaster!

Danny Wilson told the team to keep it tight for ten.  They did.....for about ten seconds.
Goal down inside a minute and if Colchester could shoot we could of been 4 zip down in ten minutes.
We got back into the game with the pen, looked as if we could score (glaring miss from Paynters head) and then conceded a shit goal in the last minute.
Second half we looked better got the leveller and then threw it all away with another balls up.
Heres my sum ups for what its worth:
Brezovan:Punches everything and doesnt seem to be able to catch a thing...big ironic cheer in the second half when he came out and caught a cross.
Amankwaah:Still prefer him in Midfield but he did ok.
 Morrison: Not great....clear your lines son!
Greer: Solid enough.
Vincent: Not good for me and shaky.
Robson-Kanu: Nice goal but needs to run into that box a bit more.
 (Marshall 77): First time i have seen him play since Malpas last game away at Brighton and i thought he did well as he attacked from the off and he was chopped down at every turn.
Timlin: Pants - really poor - the end. :bye:
Tudur Jones: 'missing' for me and a huge fuck up miss kick for their last goal when he had about ten inutes to take nine touches before clearing it. :doh:
 (Razak 90),: Not enough time to see him.
 McNamee: Played better but needs to run into the box.
Cox: Indifferent. Now hes got 20 goals i hope it helps his game.
Paynter: Won alot of headers and held the ball up well but never seemed to be in the right place at the right time - woeful miss with the free header in the first half. :(..alot easier to execute than the MK goal he nabbed.
Subs Not Used: Phil Smith, Ifil, Nalis.

Summary - gifted a mediocre team (who have taken 6 points and scored 6 past us) a win. Town allowed a five foot midget to boss the game. How many headers did that cunt win for fucks sake? How he never got MOM is beyond me.
Couldnt defend again and i lost count of how many clearence kicks we spooned into the air inside the penalty area. Brez punched no further than the edge of the box.

Said it once or twice and i will say it again:

'Relegation is a cup and our name is on it'. ??? :1st:

Not taking three points of Cheltnumb was enough to suggest that the end is nigh.

I am sorry to say that i predict a real spanking at Elland Road on Saturday and I will be there to see it. :spank:

Yep training this week should be Brez catching, Forwards shooting on target, find someone who can take a free kick round the box (how many did we waste?) Utilise Morrisons throws ( doesn't matter how long and accurate they are if you only put 3 in the box with no follow up from midfield), and sort the corners out, near post every time/short corners dont work! I bet they only had 2 or 3, 6 footers in the whole side, did we take advantage, no!

Flattest away game I've been to this season, players weren't up for it and neither were 99% of our supporters. Why go all that way to support the team if all you're going to do is sit there?
Relegation is now rapidly approaching and while I agree that the majority of our team aren't good enough, they don't even appear to try half the time.
The albino midget that played for Colchester last night epitomised what we lack: a midfielder who doesn't stop running; who tackles; who links up play; who never gives up.
Our players lose the ball and stop running; we never close down the opposition; we don't create space; we never look for the ball and we're afraid to get in the opposition's box.

I left my house at at 12.30pm yesterday and got home at 2.45 this morning. I am slighty pissed off that I didn't even see my team make an effort.

Ed raised the point last night that Cox is too much all over the pitch. He then asked Wilson his thoughts on this and Wilson was saying he liked that and mentioned something like Wayne Rooney.

Anyway, the only player who does all that is Cox, but as you say Hertha we need that from a midfielder. It's problematic with Cox because he's forever out of position.

Its also obvious that we are not getting any luck and rebounds always seem to go to the opposition.

We need plenty from now on if we are to beat the drop!

a point at leeds, 2 wins next week job done.... the games are running out... :(

A-haaa!!  An excuse that didn't go down well during a previous manager's reign.  I reckon you make your own luck, it goes against you when you're not in control of the game.

With any luck the Leeds palyers will go on strike and they will have to stick out the Yoof team.

We would then scrape a draw!

No doubt it will be classed as reptitive, and a pessimistic post from myself.

The main reason was the loss of Sturrock, Blackley and Summerfield. The way we're going we'll never get a backroom team that strong. I see about the boards people are saying let Wilson bring his own people in, which is more than fair enough but it doesnt appear that Wilson has 'his own people'

The dream would be for us to send you lot down on your own turf, owe how i'd love that!!!!!  :D

GAS UNTIL I DIE!!!

City sent us down last time. Still trying (and hopefully failing) to follow in your neighbours footsteps? Caught in their shadow more like.

Well that was worth registering for.

Couldn't really care less about that load of scum.

Robins= Scum, the lot of em (and you come to think of it)  ;)

If you've got gas til you die, shouldn't you go for a big shite or something? Might be more productive than posting bog standard drivel!

I could, but then i could wait then dump all over swindon in late april... :D

Fuck me, we've got a witty one here

Certainly have. I will be with you for the foreseeable future to constantly mick take and annoy you about your pathetic club and dirty Shithead manager!

what about your 'dirty' swindon manager?

Are the schools shut in brizzle?

What a silly little boy.

Trouble spelling Bristol then?

genius

Bet he's still posting away, bless.

I'd go back further and suggest it's been down hill since Wise left (and in actual fact it only went uphill for about 2 months following a previous 2 year decline).  Sturrock's organisation and ability to get his old pals to come here for a bit managed to stop a rot (Wise going was the same time as the club's off field capitulation) that was likely to be onset in any other club.  Wise managed to get a system of play that worked for the players we had at League 2 level, not sure he would be doing much better at this level once the initial confidence begins to wain, not with the same players anyway.  Cox & McNamee apart, we have not signed a permanent player who would be much if anything above League 2 level.  Easton is ok, was a stand out player for Leyton Orient in League 2.

If we go down, I think we are better placed than we were in 2005/06 and we bounced back with more problems than we have now.

i will cut you

IF you send us down i do hope you laugh as long and as loud as i did when you blew it in 2000/2001 - you only had to beat mighty Wycombe (who finished 13th) at home to send us down and save your bacon....but oh dear....

I remember going to Stoke to get spanked 4-1 on the final day knowing we were safe and enjoyed reading all the banners put up by the City fans on the junction of the M6.

'Totter down , Bedminster down and Gas down'  loved it.

What goes around comes around....enjoy!

Absolutely frustrating night.Memo to CUFC-GET SOME FUCKING SIGNPOSTS MADE UP!after driving about another 20 miles after actually seeing the ground,finally found it,just got in and Platt scores after 40 seconds!I've never seen such a disorganised rabble as our back 5 and,as Flash said, we should have been 4-0 down after 10 mins.Vincent will never have a more shocking start to a game.Is that disorganisation down to DW?You decide.Platt v Morrison was quite literally "man against boy"-the lad had a game to forget and was badly at fault for their second.OTJ horribly responsible for the winner,he understandably looked rusty.MacNamee,once again our most creative player,how Paynter missed the header only he knows-it was an easier chance than Saturdays.I dont agree that Cox seems to have given up,he looked full of it to me.I think we missed Jack Smith,Amankwah's distribution from the back was just route one.Kanu,brilliant goal but little apart from that.Greer was our best defender but that's not saying much.One thing I have to say,I dont hold with all this "DW inherited a shit side"-he's now signed 5 players,nearly half a team,two of which he obviously doesn't trust, and we haven't improved since MM.

Brez 5-I would stick with him,just!
Amank 5
Greer 6
Morrison 4
Vincent 4
Kanu 5
Timlin 4-games just seem to pass him by in midfeld
OTJ 4-reserve judgement,but not impressive last night
MacNamee 7
Cox 6
Paynter 6
Marshall 6-looked quite lively  

We drove from the North (when I was living in Edinburgh) and there was a sign City had put up saying 'congratulations Swindon Town for relegating the gas'. Made me chuckle a little.

Anywhere where it's said how many we had there last night? I would guess at about 220.

That was awful last night. And it was cold. And whilst the game was on, the concourse TV was showing an exciting end to a cricket match with wickets falling every 15 minutes or so. And then there is us celebrating a 3rd equaliser whilst the flag was up for offside and the entire home support just laughing at us.

The last time I felt like such a dickhead was precisely 2 minutes after joyously singing "2-0 and you fucked it up" chant v Plymouth whilst sat right next to their fans.

I haven't been much in the last couple of seasons for reasons I will not bore you with but I did go last night so here's my two pence worth..

I'm not a doom and gloom merchant, not even close. I think of myself as an optimistic realist and don't see the point in seeing the down side of things just for the sake of it.

Having said that though, on the evidence of last night (and a quick glance at the league table) I do genuinly believe we will go down. That's the first time I've thought that this season. We're just not very good really are we? We're not that awful either - I've seen far worse Town sides but ultimately we're not good enough to get ourselves out of the position we've got ourselves into. We played ok at times last night and gave Col U a reasonable game, although the first 15-20 minutes were abymsal and embarassing and we could/should have been 3 or 4 down (then again, Paynter should have scored so I suppose it should have been 4-1)

If we had had those same players plus Wilson as manager since the start of the season I think we would be doing a lot better, i.e. not setting the division alight but not in danger of relegation. It sounds like we have played much better than that (MK on Saturday) but even when we do play well we still can't win so I can't really see a way out.

I'm certainly not a Fitton basher but it's clear he is going to have to invest some money to get things going on the pitch, whether that means getting out of Division 3 next season or getting back into it. Success on the pitch will obvioulsy lead to better crowds, cup runs, TV money etc and once that happens he can go back to his ideal of the club being self supporting. He's going to have to get the ball rolling though by putting (even) more money into the club. I can't see how else the club is going to move forward.

I really hope I'm wrong about us getting relegated because another season back in Division cunting Four is really, really, really unappealing, especially after getting out of it so recently. I'm afraid if that was to happen, my support of STFC would just amount to looking out for their results on Final Score/Soccer Saturday etc..It will just be a season wasted. I just could not be doing with it. I so hope I am wrong though.

   

Is this DV ranting to JFW about last night??

We might be better placed off the field, but I cant see Danny Wilson and Dave Byrne providing the same appeal Dennis Wise and Gus Poyet did.

OST, I think if you went to the first game of the season and saw 11 lads really giving it everything they had, getting stuck in, I bet you would want to come again.

I know I would.

Im sorry, but I think this team has done bad damage to our support. We need a team we look forward to watching the week. Know loads of lads who said fuck this after just 2 months of Malpas and the players just not giving a fuck.

If there is just 11 blokes out there just doing a job and collecting a wage in the lower leagues, then Im sorry but that is not good enough for people to pay money for it and get excited about it, no matter how talented you may be. Not good enough, never ever will be.

If that's JFW then I might just be tempted to come back ...

Her rack's got bigger

Is it me or should Breadvan saved the first?

http://www.football.virginmedia.com/page/Football/League1/VideoIndex/0,,12555,00.html

What a shit winner-I didnt realise at the time that it took such a wicked deflection

Fucking shit defending for all three goals. Terrible.

Oh dear. I can see why people are irate with Brez and the punch.

i'd say the first two brez should've done more with, he wasn't helped by some really bad defending for all three but....eeesh

Bloody hell, their third looked as though it went straight in tuesday, how bloody jammy was that? Think i blamed morrison yesterday but clearly otj fucked up.

I was a bit disappointed that the geezer from the Town End who makes the sqwuaking (sp?) noise wasn't there on Tuesday.

That doesn't look right. How do you spell sqwuaking?

Squawking.

Thank you.

I'm sure he'll be at Leeds on Saturday.

I myself am having a day off so I shall listen out for him on the wireless.

One of the reasons I moved more centrally in the town end was because of him. I never actually found out who it is who does it though, but I have my suspicions. Is it a tall chap?

Quite a big fella yes.

Quite intimidating looking, but actually nice as pie whenever I've spoken to him.

Why does he squawk?  does he get a trill out of it?

I don't think Brez was not at fault for the first, would have been a brilliant save if he'd pulled that off.  But what the hell was he playing at for the second?  Jesus Christ what a shite flippin punch.  As for OTJ's error for the third, my word we need some divine intervention to avoid the drop if we continue giving away goals like that.

I don't really blame him for the first one. Even if he had saved it that horrible little tramp Gillespie would have had the ball at his feet and 8 yards by 8ft worth of empty goal to aim at.

Notice how Cox is the one busting a gut to get back and close down their man for the first goal. If he gave the ball away in the first place, fair enough, but if not, where was our fucking midfield? Ambling back no doubt. Fucking shambles this lot. From a Colchester perspective I'd be annoyed with their goalie for conceding a soft second.

It was, but it has been coming. His shit punching has looked dodgy for a few games now. I'm no keeper, I don't know if he can catch them, but he has to do something else.

Their third was indeed a fluky goal, though clearly OTJ should have humped it up the field.

Cox's workrate is immense, but it's taking him into the wrong positions on the pitch!.

Just watched the highlights.

First thing I noticed was all 3 of Colchesters goals come down our right hand side and I dont think for any of the goals Robson-Kanu is even in the frame.

Really shit shit shit defending. How can you let Clive Platt stand inbetween the centre backs for the first one?

Second was was utter Gash by Brez, he wasnt even challenged and still couldnt catch the thing. Other keeper however would have been given the free kick for obstruction but not us.

Third one was a complete cock up by the Welsh lad. Bastard deflection but lets be honest if he didnt get deflected it would have gone straight at Brez and he would have punched it anyway!

"Really shit shit shit defending. How can you let Clive Platt stand inbetween the centre backs for the first one?"

My thoughts exactly!!  He had a free header, terrible defending indeed.

What about the laughable attempted clearance by Morrison for the second?Blame Brez if you like but that was the real howler that led to the goal.

Whilst it was a crap clearance (Ifil would have at least got it into the stands) you expect a 6ft 7 goal keeper to be able to catch the ball.

Its as simple as that.

For one of the goals Cox comes steaming back to cover, points to the space behind him for Amankwaah to cover and then he doesn't cover it and they get the overlap.

As others have said where was the rest of the medfield?

Rather than blame individuals, it's quite clear it was a poor team 'effort' overall which did us.

It's been apparent for the past few games that Cox is getting back and doing a central midfielders job far too much. It shows he can read the game better than any of our other players.

It's great that he puts the effort in and never stops running, but it leaves Paynter isolated and we lose the ball too easily when it's pumped up top.

And Wilson said on the radio that if thats what Cox wants to do its fine by him.
With tactics like that we are fucking doomed.

Thats Wilts who stands near me.....he doesnt go mid week as he goes to a spiritulist gathering. :soapy tit wank:

Disagree, yes it was a mistake by Morrison, but putting the ball ten foot in the air, giving the keeper plenty of time to clean up, isn't exactly crime of the century.  OTJ's miskick was fair more costly, as it gave no one time to react.

More worryingly for me watching the "highlights" was the sight of some of our defenders ambling around and seemingly not giving a shit.
Only Greer seemed to be bothered by it all.

And if a 6ft3ins centre half cant kick a ball far enough to clear the area....well,its also as simple as that.What I'm saying is both players are equally culpable

Let's face it most of our players know there's no contract here for them next season, and are quite happy to see out the next 7 or 8 weeks before a long summer holiday. A number may start to panic around early July, when they realise they'll be joining the dole queue.

Their degree of interest has been in steady decline all season.

But none of the team that is playing reg so pretty pointless saying those out on the pitch dont give a shit

Has anyone got yesterdays programme to hand to let me know if my estimate of 220 awayers at colchester was correct? i need to fulfill my anorak needs, Ta.

234

Cheers CS, i can wear my anorak with pride.

In slightly related news, Brez celebrates his demotion to the bench by coming to watch the Wildcats take on the Basingstoke Bison in an exhibition match on his own, he looks well bored :P

On that subject, my friend reckons he saw JPMs missus walking through Old Town earlier today, pushing a pushchair.

No sign of any dog food though so personally I don't think it was her.
