  1. must fancy 3 points is nailed on and they want to take advantage of the teams around them not playing. reminds me of our game against Blackburn in the 80's and we all know what happened then
  2. I see your point but Scunthorpe is west of Siberia where this lot is coming from.
  3. i have a hazy memory from my youth in the 60's of a France Rugby international in Paris where the pitch had been covered with straw in the days leading to the game as frost was expected and then an hour before kick off they set fire to it. 1) proving extra warmth and 2) getting rid of the straw.
  4. Gregan must have been bloody massive because every time i saw us play Leeds that Beckford had stand on the touchline to try and get past him.
  5. Well Blackburn is a bargain then if they are setting off from Guildford.
  6. Spot on. The spectators' seemed to be in the here and now. We went to watch this one game, today's game Now everybody seems to be thinking 4 games ahead. 'Well we'll beat these and then at least 4 points from the next 2 away games and we'll be in the top 6. Top half finish this season and play off's next.' Why can't we just go and watch the next game? Also if you are talking about hope and expectation. I started going in 1970 aged 12. If you'd told me then I'd see us play at Wembley , FA Cup semi against the pride of all Europe and play in the First Division (sorry old habits die hard) I'd have said you'd been sipping too much OB ( younger readers ask your grandad) So again for you younger readers look forward to and enjoy our next game.have hope but don't let it be a hostage to fortune. You never know what might happen in your life as a blue. Look what happened to my generation and my latics was a lot lower than yours is now.
  7. Couple of points about last night which I don't think have been mentioned yet - apologies if they have. One, Chuks Aneke going off was a key moment of the game. He's a class act in this league, their bea2t player by far and hed already forced Johnny in to his only save. .Two, our goal came from a corner following Fane's awful shot from distance which from where i was sat went straight over with no MKD player anywhere near to get a touch. Your views?
  8. He had a shocker but his game is running with the ball and George best would have struggled on that pitch. Even still he nearly scored at the start of the second half.
  9. With his play off record in this league they could go up this year.
  10. No response means I think you've got your answer. All keeping their heads down .
  11. This was commented on on radio manc they agreed with you.
  12. Blackburn have made 2 subs. Think they are going 4-4-2
  13. I thought it was 2 penalties. people laughed after the first but not after the second
  14. isn't that where they give it a different name and refuse to let the press report on it?
  15. I thought that the Bradford owners had previously been after Rossler
