Re: MATCHWATCH : Fleetwood Town (a)

Headless chickens. What a waste. Many opportunities to calmly clear and create an attack, but boot it anywhere in blind panic seemed the order of the day. Pretty obvious that you can’t play like that for the last ten minutes of a game and not expect relentless attack from the opposition. Oh, do you...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Stevenage (a)

Read reports of local scrotes causing problems for Cambridge fans after their games was postponed late on due to a power outage, so they have history.

Let’s face it, not much going on in Stevenage, so they have to amuse themselves somehow, utter hole of a town.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Port Vale (a)

For those travelling by train and thinking about a gentle saunter back into S-O-T, bite to eat and then catch the 19.05 back to Ding, you won’t, as it has been cancelled.

Best foot forward for the 18.04 or a very slow return for the 20.05

Re: MATCHWATCH : Hull City (h)

Royality creeps In That free kick at the end of the game summed up the performance.
Abysmal!


Genuinely think one of the dumbest things I’ve seen watching football (especially bearing in mind how we won against Hull earlier in the season). Dense

Re: MATCHWATCH : Cardiff City (a)

I don’t want Ince to go but surely we had to show more ambition at Cardiff. It’s this type of performance which brings back the dread of relegation for me. Not to have one shot on target is unforgivable. This in spades. The lack of ambition shown by Ince at a club with the worst home record is unfo...

Re: Matchday Parking

Anyone any idea what happened to the parking in one of the industrial units on Commercial Road (off Bennett Road). Parked there for donkey’s years and all of a sudden last home game of last season, WBA, they weren’t there and haven’t returned this season either. Very out of character by the lads who...

Shaka, by a country mile.

Honourable mentions of

Super Simon Osborn, convinced we’d won the league in 94-95 if he hadn’t missed a dozen or so games in early ‘95. Genius player

Re: MATCHWATCH : Coventry City (a)

Thought Cov looked half decent against Forest, especially after the break, looked a little “rabbit in headlights” to start with with their return to the Ricoh, but afterwards took the game to Forest, and totally dominated them, particularly down the Forest left!
