Dr Who?

I have just been clearing out the attic, so expect some more old (as I’m old) memorabilia popping up on here, as I have the programs box to go through by the end of the week. But it was CD’s box today and I can across this one from The Valley Slags, The Legend of the Saint. I believe this was released by a local bank to promote or protest that Le God was not getting in the England squad. I seem to remember a very muted play of this on the pitch at home to Leeds at The Dell in an evening game (that might not be right, might have been a Saturday). I just remember being slightly embarrassed for them and the club. Does anyone know any of the band members, and what other stuff they played. I do know that the campaign ended badly as Matty did not go to France 98! So this would have been around March-May 97/98 season. Hymn sheet attached so please sing along!

12:30 kick offs are a pain in the bum. Why not 3pm? Is it just because of tv as there is only the premier league left. Just means instead of leaving at 12:30 for a 3pm kick off, so will need to set off at 10:00 🙄

That’s the one! I was in the West Stand for some reason!

As a supporter who always want to win games and your club to play at the highest level. Also thr money will help the club massively. It is easy to get stuck in the Championship and become a nothing club. On the flip side of this I cannot stand the premier league, so you can be on both sides of this.

I’m sure we will go about it the same way, or we should as a professional set ups. I do think it is fans that think, a draw will be ok in the away leg. If they do get to the end or near the end of the game and it is a draw the in game tactics may change to thinking we will take a draw but still look for an opening. Then if they do all they can and it finishes a draw, they will say that it is a good result, which it will be. I should think they will go for the win at Boro.

Advantage Arsenal

I follow Hibs. Hearts will feck it up!

Paul Jones in a 1-0 home win at The Dell in the mid/late 90s he had a blinder, god knows how we won!

How many blocked out and what for? Commercial?

I’m the opposite. I was very confident about the playoffs last time. This time I just cannot shake the feeling we are going to come up short and turn to crap, like the last time we were at Boro. I think this comes from the fact that I cannot even work out for the life of me how we got here! Bury them and I might start to believe!

Yay lunch time at Boro next Saturday… perfect!👌

Come on Crawley. Not that it matters if Cambridge do the business at Crewe. Some context, 2 of my children were born in Cambridge and we lived there for 9 years, so we have a soft spot for them. Go to a few of there games op north.

Oh, I did not know this. Just came on here now and went to the last page. Thanking you. 😊. Would be nice if we could keep the core of the squad together for another push next season, if we do not go up!

So where are we without me reading through this whole thread. 1) Who’s contract is up and will walk away? 2) Who is on loan and will return to their club? 3) Who wants away I would love it if the club, with another year of payments do all they can to keep this group of players for 1 more season, sell it to them that we should finish in the top 2. If we do not, then I fear it might not be as good next season. We have seriously click, but do fear it will be at a cost this season with the run we have been on, they are all pretty shattered, with mid week, and weekend games for pretty much a month. I know know one wants to hear it, but I think we will just come up short.

I can see us beating Preston and Boro drawing at Wrexham, but with Wrexhams playoff place on the line they may even best Boro. Then you even have, which no one is talking about. If Millwall slip up and Boro win, Boro will take 3rd forcing us into a semi against Millwall. I was hoping for Hull as I have not been to that ground and will not be making it to Millwall (the other ground I have not been too), but cannot see us leapfrogging Millwall, or Hull actually nicking the 6th spot. Whatever will be, will be…
