  1. Didn't we have to build the earl Barrett stand ie rocky road due to all seater stadium requirements?
  2. Wonderful talent. A palpable buzz went round the ground when he had the ball. 1973 team with Alan and George McVitie on t'other wing was exciting to watch, created chances and scored goals. As a 15 yr old, he had been my favourite player and when he died , it was around the day of one of my O levels and I wore a black tie rather than usual blue tie to school that day as mark of respect.
  3. Yes recall my first time on the Chaddy early 1973 v Watford. Still at Junior school and trying to find a position on the old boards at the top right to see over the clouds of pipe smokers. Most of the neighbours went and us kids disappeared to the top and adults lower down, much as with the athleticos in the Earl Barratt /Rocky Road end these days. Memories and allegiances formed from this shared visceral experience and is why the club needs to welcome families if we are to survive.
  4. Certainly cylla and missile should be a two in the middle. Baxter looked sharper than of previous. Today's game was enjoyable to watch with both teams trying to win it in last few minutes. Let's give Wild a chance for next season.
  5. Also where I am at. Our 2 season tickets not renewed. Will look out for response to the Trust letter with interest.
  6. Can't go today as at another event however would be interested in live stream of my season ticket seat to see if anyone sits in it.
  7. Morecambe are a prime example of what can be with coaching and determination and some players who stick to what they are good at. I and others around me certainly clapped Ellison off as we knew his age! Fair play to you and your fans who got behind the Shrimps to the end. I hope you stay up as you are certainly better than some sides we have seen recently.
  8. Yes been to the village a couple of times. Always some weird vibe to it though. Stunning views across the bay in good weather.
  9. Honest sounding stuff. Sounds great to my ears. Practical and positive.
  10. Don't forget the weird eastern European kids drama "the singing ringing tree' with the giant fish Never understood it then and have seen some clips on 'youth tube' and still don't understand it now.
  11. Back on topic, I had to smile to myself today as I looked out from my seat in the moan stand at Paul Scholes, England and Utd ledgend , who is our manager with the back ground of the Joe Royle stand. In 20 years time will the moan stand have been replaced with the Paul Scholes stand?
  12. Nepo for me too. Put in a shift at full back including some solid tackles and was constantly making overlaps and space.
  13. Agreed subs didn't work out today. If we are pressing up the field we need all forwards to work as one. Branger needs to play ball quicker when one on one Still havnt seen anyone better than us so got to keep on playing with a quicker tempo which causes defenders at this level problems Once again poor ref who was backed up by a poor lino on the moan stand side. Roll on Tuesday with a stronger bench please and play to feet.
  14. Seven goals by seven players in 2 games. Means we are not relying on a single forward. Increasing confidence to take a shot is noticeable.
  15. Press conference looked like some bizarre love triangle
  16. I'll say it again ,Great news for club and the fans alike. Could be a Royle or Sharp but fun to watch I'm hoping.
  17. Great news for club and fans alike. Could be a Royle or a Sharp but will be fun!
  18. What odds on Scholesy getting carded in his first game in the dugout?
  19. Last 20 minutes shows fitness and application and some thoughtful football Now on to.6.30 pm!
