  1. I really don’t think this matters. For the first time in my 40 years watching, the results on the pitch aren’t the most important thing and even less so, the music afterwards
  2. I’d back the players to decide whatever is best for them. Five out of seven months now. For even stepping on the pitch, they have my admiration.
  3. Wasn’t there, nothing but admiration for those that stepped on the pitch. The crowd behind them, protests and confidence will step up
  4. WUMs. Though I did sadly see him scores for Vale in a 3-2 home defeat over Christmas (2003?)
  5. I’ve had a quick trawl on our results that season. Fewer than two goals per game and only 39 League goals scored, just 17 away. Most of which seemed to fall in the last four or five matches. I don’t get out much, My record would be similar, though I did see THAT Simek goal. An apt summary of our attacking prowess that season.
  6. I’m not sure anything can compete with Linighan in 93. I had an usually confident feeling we would win on pens. As for regular games, going 3-1 up at Derby in injury time and contriving to draw. Blowing a 2-0 lead at Swindon with eleven minutes to go and losing 3-2 in the pouring rain on the open end for a night match. Oh, and 4-1 at Gillingham in the cup in the coldest gane ever.
  7. Focus on the vast, vast majority that didn’t go. Tonight has been a success on all levels
  8. Agree, I think we are saying the same thing and perhaps I didn’t articulate well enough. Only that you will always get a minority that have a different view to a greater or lesser extent and that’s life…let’s build on the energy and momentum of the majority
  9. Love this sentiment. The reality is that everyone is going to have their own view about how to best go about it - and like it or not, that’s rightfully every individual’s choice. The poster who outlined what happened at Blackpool was a real eye-opener. The more together we are the better. As others have said, focus on how many people don’t buy the shirts or boycott the L**ds gane, rather than worry about the few that do, I feel we have the momentum, I really do. I think (and hope) we will have similar support and generosity from nearly every away club that Leicester and Wrexham have shown so far.
  10. I’m pleased they’ve come out with this. I’m disappointed it’s taken so long and feels like it’s only the very recent wider national media coverage and political coverage that has provided the catalyst to up their game. The work of the Trust and the brilliant local journalists was more than enough to release this statement a couple of months ago.
  11. Thoughtful and kind words, thank you. The sentiments you’ve expressed is what football is all about
  12. This is very sadly, highly likely to be correct
  13. Literally every day is worse than the day before. I don’t believe anyone can tell me cogently otherwise
  14. Yes, was Martin Clunes’ character talking about a rowdy bunch of Wednesday fans on the tube
  15. Couldn’t agree more. With honourable exceptions, the lack of attention is dreadful. The fact that subs being interviewed in PL matches next season garners far more attention tells you a lot about where football now is.
