Interesting to read that Barnet thought we were the worst fans whilst Bradford the best.

The reasoning given is a bit odd. We're bad fans because we're too good for this division?! Surely this should be based on numbers and noise, which we provided in abundance.

The best/worst fans overall was as I'd have expected it.

Plymouth, particularly taking into account their club's plight, get a lot of credit. We get a number of positive mentions and everyone hates Crawley fans.

Also interesting to see the Morecambe fan saying we didn't take as many as they expected. I don't think 800+ is too shabby for a 450-mile round trip! That was roughly 1/4 of the attendance, and also around 15 times as many as they brought down here!

The Rotherham fan doesn't seem too pleased with having Evans...

Click onto the league 1 blog and read what the Colchester fan says about Michael Rose!  :D

Thought this was quite from the burton fan

Worst fans Oxford fans. Listening to the Radio Oxford phone-in driving home from our 2-2 draw at the Kassam, I heard "we shouldn't be drawing with little tin-pot sides like Burton" more times than I wish to remember. Hilarious.

Intimidated by our superiority.

there are quite a few mentions about the pox fans being the worst this is from a cheltnum fan

The sight of hordes of Oxford fans leaving the stands at the Kassam when we went 3-0 up was just laughable.

Bit of deja vu.

Douglas and Cuthbert best performers in there teams in the first season.

Ring any bells?

Revisionist!

1. Kevin Lisbie 'edged' Cuthbert.
2. The Brentford fan hardly showered Douglas in glory. He nominated him pretty much by default.

Shrewsbury Towns Bottom of the class Steve Evans celebrating as if he'd won the FA Cup during his first game in charge at Rotherham, only to lose the game 3-1

this should also go in the makes me happy thread

Quote from the Oxford fan:

"It is uncertain how fans will react if we fail in the play-offs"

Will someone break the news to him  :D

Also saw that the Pikey fan awarded Frampton the bottom of the class award

Quote from: Barnsley Fan
Bottom of the class: Jay McEveley became the scapegoat of the Ponty End. Now at Swindon. Problems have remained at the back nonetheless.

Wonder if the manager acted on fan pressure or JM was just struggling.
