For the last 4 or 5 seasons we've had a couple of blokes sitting immediately behind us who have moaned and whinged at virtually every game. Back in our usual seats today for the first time this season and they're still there but I think my view on them has mellowed which I have to admit has somewhat surprised me.

The Club has gone through a dreadful couple of seasons yet they've paid their money yet again. They were more subdued than usual so I'm hoping this sets their standard for the rest of the season.

Each fan will have their own reason, you can’t point the finger at one issue and say that’s it.

 

2 STs missing from me and my Brother, Me just not too fussed any more after 18 months away from PP, My Brother...well he passed away in April...the big C got him.

I'll be in a boozer in town on Saturday for THE game, 1st time i've been in our City since March 2020.

The referee and the idiot running the East Stand line were embarassing. There was one incident in the second half when I think it was Forsyth winning the ball with a good tackle, the Boro muppet went down - ref hesitated for a few seconds, looked to the lino for guidance, the lino was struck dumb, looked at the ref for guidance and the ref must have thought to himself 'I'd better make some sort of decision here' and awarded a foul against Fozzy.

Crazy where they get these idiots from.

Got stuck in traffic I heard.  Didn't leave till midday as it took him and Rick Parry 3 hrs to set each others perms this morning  and they got up late.

Parry did say he felt a little stiff?

Quite sad to see a club with such rich sporting history looking likely to plummet through the leagues.

I'm now in my mid 60s, Got a couple of Red Dog mates, They told me that they won the European Cup twice in the late 70s and early 80s...is this true or are they just making it up?

This comment taken from the BBC website by Warnock

"Phil Jagielka should have been sent off. I'm not sure the referee even saw it because he asked the fourth official, who said yellow card.

"When you look at it, the follow-through is horrendous. Jonny's lucky it hasn't snapped his leg. That's a red card any day of the week."

Anyone expand on this? or is Warnock still...well Warnock.

I'll take Sibley over Lawrence at every opportunity, If Sibley can stop his foolish bookings(i'm aware some refs are card happy)he could cement a regular place, His forward thinking and attacking prowess puts Lawrences tame and uninspiering performances at times to give WR a little dilemma to give him a regular start if and when Lawrence gets fit...are WBA still interested in TL?

   I remember Robbie the Robot saying "on our way home" each episode, they don't make kids programs like that anymore.

I never missed an episode ?

As an aside, A few years back I bought a Ford Focus, It's number plates had 3 digits along with others and were XL5, I bought it for £900 in the hope of selling the number plate, Got the V5 back and on it it said "number plate can not be sold seperately", Also it had a lowered suspension, My drive was on a slope so when driving on and off i'd scrape the sills, A couple of moths later sold for £350...ouch lesson learned.

My point is that he was pretty good at it until play off final. The error seems to have scarred him 

There's an old adage "you have to be crazy to be a goalkeeper", It was said that Peter Shilton would save a team 20 points a season, Well that was his job, If a striker misses an opportunity nothing is recorded, If a keeper makes a ricket then a goal is very likely.

The pairing of Davis and Jagielka will I hope give him more confidence, Talking to him and coaching him will make him better, There's a decent keeper in there somewhere, Unfortunately the Wembley goal will forever be there.

That’s under cocu. What’s your point? 

My point is Roos didn't and still doesn't command his area, Huddersfield goal from the freekick, Addmittedly it was  swung in with pace, But he was caught in the headlights, Never moved off his line.

He's a good shot stopper, But when it comes to commanding his area and crosses where bodies are concerned there's plenty of scope to improve, The faux Pah at Peterboro where a 25 yarder almost went through him sent shudders up my spine.

There is no mistake in the final , McGinn said in an interview afterwards he thought he fouled the keeper and was surprised when the ref didnt blow his whistle , ive watched it back and i agree he was fouled.

Really!

Talking nonsense there. 

Roos was brought in because Carson seemed incapable commanding his area in the first half of the season. Roos came in and commanded his area caught crossed played out from the back and made some really good saves. As a matter of fact without him Leeds would have been in the final. 
 

You obviousley didn't see his performance away at Fulham then, I did...woefull is being kind, We lost 3 nil

This is a Warnock side, They'll snarl and kick, If we stick to what we know we'll be OK, After their game last night against QPR who had a player sent off...Warnock who was on screen lambasted the ref at the final whistle in the centre circle, A real angry 70 year old he was ?

I don't get this 'life ends at 35' stuff. I wouldn't ever have classed myself as anything other than a moderate club runner, but I did manage 3 sub-3 hour marathons between the ages of 48 and 51 and a further 3 sub 3:06.

Depends how you look after yourself.

6 inch or 12 inch?

Class player. This year’s Paul Mcgrath?

I was lucky enough to see Paul Mcgrath play fur us, His knees were shot, He very rarely trained, But a player who was superb/outstanding in our defence, Marshald from the back line, Knew how to push his marker under the ball so he's win all his headers, Is Jagielka of the same mould...we'll see, One Swallow (queue puns ?) doesn't make a summer, His legs may be 39 years old but his attitude and awareness will be missed by Sheff Untd.

*Obviously, back in the proper days, it was all private hire coaches (or back of tranny vans)

I had many an invite on those vans for away games...some strange men back in the day.

I've been thinking about going to a few away games this season.

Go for it, The experience alone will be something to savour.

I've never been to an away match before! What can I expect?

Always expect the unexpected, Depends which games you pick but each to their own I guess

Is it true everybody stands up for the whole game?

No, A lot do and a lot dont, Depends on where you're going to sit...or stand

and do people take their allocated seats?

No, Unlees your Leeds or Chelsea it's best if you leave them bolted to the floor.

Is it rowdy, south stand style?

Can be, Again depends on where you're sitting

What about before and after the game?

Before the game have a mooch around the town, A bite to eat and a drink maybe, After the game a burger then straight to a boozer, But all depends on your mode of transport.

I'd probably drive so is parking an issue at times?

Depends which game you choose, It can be a pain parking near a ground, Then again there may be a car park near to the game of your choice...not forgetting that drink and driving is not an idea i'm advocating...see above.

I'm in my fifties and would like to sit down and watch the game, giving the rams a cheer on the way. Fairly typical north stander ?

Away games are not like home games, There's more excitement, Banter, Tomfoolery, Giggles galore, You'll enjoy the day...especially if we get 3 points
