Ante's Bubbly

I saw Milan's name and thought he must be launching a new bid. How very sad. He always conducted himself with class when in the public eye and representing the club. I am sure he will be very sadly missed by a lot of people. Rest in peace Milan and thank you for looking after our club X

You must have given Windass loads of stick then?

The ref and linesman decided to give them their third goal though, for a goal that was so obviously offside it was almost laughable. Was it shown on the big screen? I'm guessing not otherwise the second pitch invasion might have been more impressive. It did not change the result, but another goal to the negative is another nail in our coffin and more people seem to be lining up to nail us as a football team than to nail our owner, for the various unpaid bills and wages. Come on you Herbert's, do us all a favour and call his debts in, file winding up orders and get the rat out of our club.

Trolling mate. Just been through his posts. Don't waste your time. I have a season ticket, bought in good faith, as always, to support our struggling team, as per the last 20 plus years and feeling a bit under the weather today, I just could not bring myself to go. I ehalf expected the game to get called off, but knew that if it wasnt, I could have either gone on the pitch and got myself banned, or lost my temper with those fans that shout and scream at fans that are trying to do something, however ineffective it might be. Plus, despite the great performance for the draw last week, I did not expect to see the players put on a performance anything like they did last week. They have played under par every other time they have not been paid and I cannot blame them for that, but quite honestly I would like to see all of Chansiri's unpaid workers down tools and go on strike. No-one manning the desks, doors kiosks, suites, kitchens etc and no players turning up to play. I want to go out every game and support my team like I normally do, but quite honestly the football really is just a side show right now and our bad owner and his bent sidekick just need to be shut down.

To put some kind of numbers on it, in the two seasons in a row, where Reach played a more defensive role he completed an average of 1.6 & 1.7 tackles per game. This season we have acknowledged high tacklers like Inglesson, Bannan and Amass on 1.8, defenders like Max Lowe on 1.6, Valery on 1.3, Weaver & Cadamarterie on just 1! I have not heard anybody describing any of this lot as nesh! In two seasons in a row where Reach had a more attacking role, he made 15 goal contributions, 8 goals and 7 assists one season and 4 goals and 11 assists in the other. So the Reach knockers are still just plain wrong. Whatever reasons they have for knocking him, football wise they are still looking silly. As an old attacking player he still has a higher tackling rate in a physical league, at Lincoln, than our much fancied young centre half.

Let's say 500 people invade the pitch today and most of them get banned etc, how many will invade the pitch next time and then the time after? We, as fans have no right to go onto the pitch at any time unless some emergency occurs that poses a direct risk to life, such as a fire, smoke bomb, Wards f@rt etc. Employees of the club that have not been paid what they should be paid, when they should be paid in 5 months out of 7 do have the right to strike though and in my opinion, that would have a bigger effect because the staff and players have workers rights and their action would be taken against the club, not against the English football league etc.

Orchestral manoevres in the dark teaser! Are you a fellow SPATA member? (Sensible People Against Tw@tty Acronyms).

I remember quoting the actual stats about the number of tackles that Reach made in four or five games on the trot during which he actually made more than the average number of tackles that our players made, which upset a few, who then, pathetically tried to compare him with Sam Hutchinson! Adam Reach was a clever left winger who was always challenging Bannan for the number of assists and goals scored, all of which were crackers, at a time when Bannan still took every free kick and corner! He did not go in for late tackles or crunching tackles that would have got him booked, crippled or sent off, which would put him in that group with 95% of football players, apart from the fact that he could do everything else, which not so many can.

The 2 to 3 minutes added to the 8 minutes extra time was what I struggled to understand. The whistle should have gone just before the ball went out of play It was over 8 minutes then. I have nothing but pride and admiration for the lads though. They deserved to be at least level first half and the commitment put in by the lads should bring further shame on our bad owner. Unpaid again. Gary Monk had us at the top of the division when the players missed their first pay day and the drop in morale and effort was tangible as we slid down the table. Each time since, the players and staff have suffered. He must be stopped now. Enough is enough and no a.ou t of point deductions or embargoes are going to change anything. This is one bad owner doing bad things. He should be locked up never mind booted out of the club, he is a disgrace. UTO!

The best left winger we've had for some years. Some foolishly tried to compare him to Sam Hutchinson, which I always thought was a bit strange. If we wanted a hot headed rough tackling often injured defender, then Adam Reach was not your man. If you wanted a left winger who could pick out a player making a run into the box, score a few goals, take free kicks and also do a decent job in several other positions on the pitch, then Reach was definitely your man. Its such a shame that our bad owner had spent all our money when Reach was here. If the rest of the team had been anything like as good as Reach, we would have breezed promotion instead of struggling to survive.

Horvath - 7 Palmer - 7 Iorfa - 7.5 Weaver - 7 M. Lowe - 7.5 Amass - 6.5 Bannan - 8 Ingelsson - 7 Valery - 7 Brown - 7 Cadamarteri - 6 Ugbo - 6 Lowe - 6 Otegbayo - 6 Pedersen has found a well balanced first team line-up, with a good mixture of youth and experience. We only look a bit flimsy now when players are tiring. UTO! Chansiri out!

Exactly that. It would make a far bigger statement if away team's fans protested about Chansiri without any away fans present. Only hypoctites will deny fans going to home games while away fans are lauded for their away support after buying tickets that put money into Chansiri's pockets!

A total, all out strike at the ground would be most effective. Lights off, doors locked, nobody manning turnstiles, tills etc. None of the unpaid workers, players or staff attending the ground and the players union making a statement on their behalf. If the EFL and government are toothless enough to sit back and do nothing, take action and STRIKE! As Bob Marley and the Wailers once sang, no money, no play (before they changed the words). One out, all out in solidarity for those who cannot live or plan their lives without the wages that they have earned, deserve and are being denied by the bad owner of our club. He must be stopped by any means now This one evil, nasty little excuse for a man has caused too much pain and suffering to too many people for what? He does not even have the common decency to tell these people who work for him, why he is putting them through this. He will be forever despised and hated because of his selfish and callous attitudes to others and that is before anyone even considers the fans or the club's reputation. Threaten to STRIKE and bring him down, the EFL would have to act, or pay the wages.

Buying scarves to keep the protests going are a nice way to make us all feel as though we are doing something, it helps fund future, more effective protests and is a good way to make others know what is going on, but quite frankly, people know what is going on now and things are still happening, but very slowly. Whatever actions are taken next need to be as carefully considered as they have been up to now, but more effective. If for example, protests were being made outside the MPs entrance to the Houses of Parliament, or outside Chansiri's home in Thailand, then that might get something moving, but protesting outside the ground after a game when only the players and staff can hear, is like preaching to the converted, it is not going to get anything moving any quicker than it already is.

Your marks pretty much match mine, but I have opted for the Pederson choice of, "The Team" for my man of the match. They looked as tight, determined, single minded and together as the young lads did against l**ds. An excellent performance with many nice passages of play from Wednesday, some clinical work in both boxes and a lot more urgency shown all over the pitch. They did us proud.
