I guess when you're facing the prospect of playing two divisions below us, you have to cling on to possibilities like this.
We should probably just end football forever then. Make a table of record attendances and assign league positions directly from it. Done. No need to play any more games.
If our match against Man City hadn't sold out there'd be a semblance of a point.
Good to hear some reason.
In 2011 I couldn't get away end tickets so gave a Swindon postcode at your box office and sat in the Arkell's.
If the season in both leagues finishes as things stand we wont play you next season but both will be happy. If played behind closed doors it could still be the same outcome but one or both of us could still mess up if we don't hit the ground running leaving us where we both are, both in league one or you in the championship two leagues apart! Anything is still possible

How very old fashioned. Clearly it should be done by comparing each club's balance sheet and ability to splurge vast quantities of corrupt regime's cash on superstar players
Ah good, back to the virtues. Pick whichever method of comparison suits you best and gives you the illusion of superiority. But it may be best to avoid looking at the league tables or any results from the last 19 years.

Bloody hell, it was a joke and it was a dig at the like of Man City, PSG and Newcastle, not your lot. No-one's going to bother sportswashing via your tinpot outfit Think you need a beer mate.

Ah I thought you meant our Thai guy. It did seem a bit rich coming from a supporter of a club that have been relegated for dodgy dealings.

Demoted it was before a ball was even kicked! Shame we never had Alan Sugar behind us at the time we would have just got our wrist slapped with a small fine!

My point exactly they will never be as big as STFC neither can they get new roles our record crowd of 32000 1972 against Arsenal
I had this in a family quiz last night. I guessed (a) 32,000; (b) Arsenal & (c) 1980. So just 2 out of 3.

We played Arsenal again in 1979 in the league cup in front of just under 22,000

Thanks. That's probably what I had at the back of my mind. Well before my time, anyway.

Exactly
Mixed messages then why would anyone worry about the pox as they're insignificant and will never be as big as STFC
My point exactly they will never be as big as STFC
Because earlier you played a very convincing mong.
