MK Dons vs. Norwich
Shrewsbury vs. Brighton
Crystal Palace vs. Walsall

Can't remember who anyone else supports...

No really big derby games in the draw that I can see... but the bigger boys join in in the next round...

Thanks for the info Fly :thumbsup:


What would we do without you?

*ahem*....

Ahem??....

*West Ham*

Thank you ILS! :laugh:

No...!
You're "too good" to be in the first round...
You can't have both premiership AND be in the first round of the cup...
You should have thought about that before the play-off final and let Preston win!

Oooooh, this should be good.

Hull City have made it to your league now, so I can join in with the banter!

Come on Tigers!

Oooooh, this should be good.

Hull City have made it to your league now, so I can join in with the banter!

Come on Tigers!

I think Hull have a good chance of doing pretty well, I think they'll do the best of the promoted teams anyway.

We have you on Nov 1 (Deepdale) and 22 April (KC)

Oh, and you gotta thrash the tangerine seaside scum of blackpool for us (In the cup... you're too gfood to play them in the league now!)

Pffft, you don't even need to mention it. It's as good as done :wink2:

Welcome to the SO footie league Mars :laugh:

We have got you on Aug 20 and Dec 16.....

Oh, and you gotta thrash the tangerine seaside scum of blackpool for us (In the cup... you're too gfood to play them in the league now!)

Hey, you leave those seasiders alone:wink2:

Heh, I'm only kidding... Is not that I don't like them... it's more like... hate!

(J/K!!)

when I'm next up in Blackpool to see my mum, I'm gonna come and visit you Flyo, be afraid, be very afraid:w00t:

What about the premiership can anyone see past chelsea for the league. I'm not a Chelsea fan but I can't see anyone else winning it. Discuss.

And what about the non english among us the scotts irish and welsh what about our teams c'mon the hoops

I don't think it's be so dominated by Chelsea this time, but I think they'll win it.
West Brom must go down, also I think Wigan and Sunderland perhaps. (Would love West Ham to stay up, and I think they will!)

Hope west ham stays up as well. I've got a little soft spot for them. I think west brom and wigan will drop not so sure about sunderland though :bag:

So ok lets have a recount of who supports who, so we know what results to look out for next season. Only 2 weeks to go!

ils - Brighton & Hove Albion
Fly - Preston
Andrea - Norwich
Tigger767 - West Ham
Mars - Hull City
Coastie - Portsmouth
Rob - Aberdeen

Is there anyone I've forgotton?

There is only 4 days to go until the beginning of the season for the teams in the Championship :w00t:

So who's team is going to get the best start ?

ils - Brighton & Hove Albion
Fly - Preston
Andrea - Norwich
Mars - Hull City


06 August 2005

Crewe v Burnley

Crystal Palace v Luton

Derby v Brighton (ils)

Hull (mars) v QPR

Ipswich v Cardiff

Norwich (Andrea) v Coventry

Reading v Plymouth

Sheff Utd v Leicester

Southampton v Wolverhampton

Stoke v Sheff Wed

Watford v Preston (Fly)

Can't believe I'm working saturday :'(!!

I reckon Preston SHOULD get a victory... we had Watford first day last year too! I think Brighton will get a result, Derby should be a bit different this year, I think. Norwich will probably thump Coventry, they need to show straight away that they're not to be messed with. And Hull need to establish themselves quickly... I think Hull v QPR could be a good close game, I think these two may push for the play-offs this year.

There is only 4 days to go until the beginning of the season for the teams in the Championship

me glasgow celtic just went out of champions league tonight won 4-0 but lost 5-0 last week oh woe is me :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

Oh bad goings there Waylander.

I can't believe the season starts again on Saturday.
Just been reading in the paper all about the transfers Norwich have made.
And we've got our first 3 games at home, because palace's stadium isn't ready yet so they asked if we could play at home for that match.
Of course it must have been a very tough decision, but they had to make it :w00t:

Roll on Saturday, I shall be glued to the..........radio (no more sky sports for us, although they never played much of Norwich anyway)

Oh we don't have any interest in the Championship this season (and probably only for this season) :bag:

Remind me who we is, Buzz, so I can provisionally add them to next seasons list :ninja: :w00t:

Anyway waylander, if it's any consolation, I live on the south coast of England and Mr Next-door is a Glaswegian who supports Celtic. It's hysterical here sometimes...

Remind me who we is, Buzz, so I can provisionally add them to next seasons list


Ils, you can add West Ham to the list...although I don't follow it too closely, I live with 4 West Ham supporters so get to know what goes on!!! (as you can imagine)

Well done to Fly's team Preston for getting all 3 points on the first game of the season :thumbsup.

I am chuffed to bits with my teams away draw and Andrea's & Mars's teams also started the season off well with a point a piece!


Derby 1 - 1 Brighton
Hull 0 - 0 QPR
Norwich 1 - 1 Coventry
Watford 1 - 2 Preston

SPL

Rob's team Aberdeen didn't do to well this week losing at home but Waylanders (Celtic) & Fee's (Rangers) both won :thumbsup:

Aberdeen 1 - 2 Kilmarnock
Celtic 2 - 0 Dundee Utd
Inverness 0 - 1 Rangers

Woo hoo!

Only the first game, and exactly the same result as our opening game last season (and again the same team...) but start as you mean to go on!!

We didn't win away until late November last year, so a great start!

Well done for the one pointers, Derby were big last season, lots has changed, so no knows how they're gonna be, so nice one with a point away (we got em next on monday night!)

Hull v QPR probably could have gone either way, I think they'll finish on similar points this season, somewhere near the top.

Norwich, best of the relegated... Deano's gonna cause some trouble this season!

Pah, one point, Norwich should have got 3.
They gave it away.
Listening on the radio, Coventry played some good stuff in the second half.
The commentators kept saying that Norwich needed to up their game, ha, they needed to do that from the start, dominate it and force a win and get three points.

All the bookies have Norwich the favourites to go straight back up, I can see them being up there, but more like in the play-offs.

At least they are not the bookies favourite to be relegated, which apparently mine team are :cry:

Nah, people underestimate Brighton.

I think there's something about brighton that they'll just refuse to go down.

They will struggle again, realistically, but I think they'll finish more mid-table this time than skin-of-teeth.

Hope you don't mind, ils, I just inserted myself!

Not at all Patsy, but are you sure you really want to admit to supporting Arsenal? :ninja:

Quite sure, thanks. I am mighty proud to be a Gooner. :thumbsup:

Might not be shouting quite as loudly in 45 mins though. :unsure:

One of my sons supports Chelsea, so at the moment he is a happy bunny :thumbsup:

Another point!

Should really be able to beat Derby at home if we're looking for a play-off place.

But all in all, not too bad.

Yes you should, especially if Brighton can get a point away from home against them :w00t:

Well just another 1 point for us tonight against Crewe.
They let crewe get in with an early goal in the first 20minutes, but then from what I heard on the radio, it sounded like norwich were playing alot better than Saturday.
They must have hit the post about 3 times.
But we need to be getting 3 points, not just 1.

It's 1 point more than we got though Andrea :sad: We lost 2 - 0 at home to Reading :cry: Hull (mars) got a point, drawing away at Sheffield Wed....

Well, I know fekc all about football, but I found THIS (http://uk.sports.yahoo.com/fo/rodneymarsh.html) on the www which some of you lot might dare to try...

I'ts always the same - one good result - followed by a bad one - you get used to it!!

Sorry to gloat ILS but thats Hull's first win since getting promoted, so woo!

Average start to the season, as what was expected really. So hopefully things will continue like this!

Sorry to gloat ILS but thats Hull's first win since getting promoted, so woo!
Gloat away Mars, it is always good to get the 1st win of the season. Hopefully by the time we play you again, we will put up a better show.

I'm hoping we do better tonight against Shrewsbury in the Carling Cup!

Norwich are playing MK Dons tonight, and me and hubby were trying to remember who MKDons used to be.
Googled it and found this brilliant site, MKDons, as many of you probably know were Wimbledon. And the Dons bit of the new name is in recognition of the Wimbledon name.
But some interesting reading on there.

The site is Answers.com ( http://www.answers.com/main/ntq-s-norwich+city)

Sorry, just had to take you to the Norwich City page. :w00t:

Sorry

And so you should be :ninja:

Actually Ils, just been reading on that site all about Brighton football, interesting stuff.

Yes it is, I did have a deco myself Andrea - a good site, well done in finding it :thumbsup:


We are now losing 3-2 in extra time, after being 2-1 up with 2 minutes to go :ranting:

Ooh tough one Ils.

Just had a look at what Norwich are doing and they are 0-0 and into extra time :shocking:

at last, Norwich finally get a goal in the last 2 minutes of extra time.

Well done to your boys Andrea :thumbsup:

My boys chucked it away again :ranting:

Another SO Derby game today....

Preston (fly) v Brighton (ils) and it ended in a 0 - 0 draw. A very much needed point for my boys.... but unfortunately we are still 2nd from bottom :cry:

I think we could be joining you there soon Ils, a loss for Norwich at home to Leeds :shocking:

Got chatting with a lovely young chap at the Camp Nou on Wednesday, Andrea. A Norwich fan, staying with his spanish friend for the summer. Didn't get his name, not that you'd know him obviously. Dad is a head teacher, so they spent the whole summer 2 hours from Barcelona. Very nice eh?!

Ooh I'm sure I heard my friend say his brother was spending the whole summer near Barcelona.
















Nah, just kidding :wink2:

I hope you didn't tell him about the recent score line.

He's painfully aware of the trials and tribulations of your beloved team and remains steadfast!

I think we could be joining you there soon Ils, a loss for Norwich at home to Leeds :shocking:

Actually Ils, I've just looked at the tables and we are only two places ahead of you :shocking:

3 - 0 to the Dons today:thumbsup:

Actually Ils, I've just looked at the tables and we are only two places ahead of you :shocking:

I did notice we had the same points as us Andrea but didn't like to say, it is just your goal difference that puts you 2 places above us.

Hull City won too!

We are up to 9th now!

Going very nicely indeed :cool:

Hull City won too!

We are up to 9th now!

That they are Mars... well done to your boys :thumbsup:

Mr. S is a lifelong Man Utd fan and introduced me to UK footy last year and explained the benefits of supporting the Red Devils. So, after listening carefully to his sales pitch, I announced my allegiance to Chelsea (hee hee).

First scan tomorrow, and not sure we can get the sex yet, but if its a girl I want name Chelsea.

And he doesn't mind, in fact he likes it!

Bless him.

Congratulations on the fortcomming arrival sayang :hug:


Btw I like your style :thumbsup:

Went to see Hull City v Leicester yesterday

Hull played SO well in the first half, should have been about four nil up!

But then, after scoring a goal early in the second half, we were absolutely abysmal, and we were lucky it finished 1-1

Oh well, a draw against Leicester isn't a bad score!

I don't even want to post anything regarding last nights game :sad:

Fly's team Preston had a fantastic win 4-0 away from home and we (Brighton) managed our first win of the season winning 2-0 at home :thumbsup:

Well, we finally got a win against Plymouth, woooooooo, at last.

Need to keep going like that guys.

A good win for your boys Andrea :thumbsup:

We got a point away at Leeds which I would have settled for before the match but when we went 2-0 up I did hope we would have got a win.

West Ham have just beat Aston Villa 4-0 tonight. :)

West Ham have just beat Aston Villa 4-0 tonight. :)

A good win there Tiggs :thumbsup:

I'm hating David Healy at the moment for what he did to england, and now to brighton. I was so happy when brighton got their third only to see another goal come through at the death! Would have been a fantastic result!

Didn't get to watch preston v brighton :( kinda glad i didn't now. We've not won at home yet this season. In fact we've only scored once! We've got Joke city on sky tonight anyway, we should be able to beat them if we're going for top six!

Preston v Burnley was another goal less draw, our second of the season!! Good atmosphere though. That's our only derby gone now :(.

I don't know how we're where we are in the table (7th) with some of our results, though the difference between winning and losing can be about 10 places at this point of the season.

Ooh local derby for us tomorrow, Norwich away at Ipswich, oooooooooh

:ninja:

Good luck to your boys Andrea :thumbsup:

We got another draw yesterday which I suppose is better than losing but we need to start winning a few at home, or we are going to be in real trouble.....

Just now into the start of the second half.

Ipswich are down to 10 men:thumbsup: Norwich are playing really well, but just not finishing off.
They've had about 5 real chances already to score but just can't get the ball in the back of the net.
We need to score!

Well they finally scored, but nearly gave it away at the end.
Ipswich had a couple of chances to score.
But what a place to get your first away win for ages:w00t:

Is this going to finish soon :unsure:

Is this going to finish soon :unsure:

No :w00t:

End of April :devil:

How could you want to finish Bonnie? :shock:

West Ham are doing so well in the *ahem* Premier League. :p

West Ham are doing so well in the *ahem* Premier League. :p

Surprisingly they are doing really well at the moment Tiggs :thumbsup:


Let's hope the bubble doesn't burst too soon.

Did you see what I did there, did you?

I am not a huge footie fan and don't really support a particular team but can I just say how delighted I am to say that Hearts are sitting top of the Scottish League with 11 points clear after beating Rangers on Saturday! I have had a bee in my bonnet about Hearts for sometime especially when Gary ...........arrrgh forgotten his name.........was extremely rude to me in a nightclub ( I was the barmaid, he was a customer) and very nice footballer John Robertson put him in his place and apologised. I don't know if I have quite forgiven them for dumping said John Robertson as manager but they are doing very well and I do hope that this time they can win the league and not have a huge number of grown-up Hearts fans sobbing their little hearts out at Tynecastle at the end of the season! :thumbsup:

Hearts are sitting top of the Scottish League with 11 points clear after beating Rangers on Saturday!
What a tremendous moment that was.
Not that I'm a Hearts fan. I just like to see the latter lose miserably :)

Hull City (finally) won again at Coventry on Sat 2-0! Excellent!

Mr.B wants to watch Man United this evening :bored: What a drag ..... looks like ill be cleaning the kitchen cupboards out - or something equally exciting.

Oooh hey, Mars, we play Hull tonight:w00t:

Oh, so that'll be three points then.....

:w00t: :whistling :p

So tonights the night

Mars V Andrea... I hope it doesn't all end in tears :ninja:

I'm sure I won't be crying ils! :laugh:

I'm way too confident arent i? :bored:

I'm way too confident arent i? :bored:

In a word "yes" :laugh:

Hrrrm, hrrrm.

Ok, you started well scoring in the first 2 minutes, but we actually came back and have scored 2 goals.
But I fear I may speak to soon.
Although I must say, we are playing quite well.

pffft, the referee was from Norwich, he needed glasses, we were robbed etc........

It's not showing on the quote either Andrea - strange, very strange! Maybe it is an omen, an omen of what though I do not know! :unsure:


So what is your prediction? I say a 3-2 win to the home side :w00t:

Maybe SO is able to tell the future and it's trying to say Brighton none:w00t:


I reckon Brighton 1, Norwich 2 (I hope)

Isn't there a Palace fan on this board?

If so... DON'T talk to me...

(It was our own fault for getting two sent off, but still!!!)

Well your prediction was closer than mine Andrea :cry:

Well done to your boys :thumbsup:

Went to see Bury vs. Lincoln yesterday. Great atmosphere in the Lincoln camp. Bury scored in the 90th however (probably their first shot of the game). And best of all it was only £9 for an afternoon's entertainment! Fantastic!

My boys had a good win last night, we beat our fierce rivals Crystal Palace 1-0 at their place :thumbsup: It is the first time we have beaten them in 22 years :wacko:

The win has lifted us off the bottom of the table (for now anyway) and out of the relegation zone, so a good night all in all :D

We scored in injury time for the second game in a row to rescue a point. Hehe. It's happened enough against us recently, so I'm allowed to laugh!

......so, where the hell did Wigan come from??.......:ohmy:

Yay, we've started to pick up now, just 3 points from play-offs now, yay! I think we can match, if not better anyone in this league, we just don't seem to get it done sometimes.

Well we finally got some points on Saturday against Luton, we desperately need the points.
Away to Milwall tonight:wacko:

Hull City are struggling very very very very very badly. Relegation places now :wallbash:

Lost to Reading over the weekend. Can anyone spare any points please?

We are below your boys Mars, so no spare points here I am afraid :cry:

We played Crystal Palace at weekend and lost 3-2, with them scoring the winner in the last minute after being in the lead twice. And to cap it all we had a man sent off too :ranting:

I don't think it will be too long before Alex McLeish is packing his little bag and saying a fond.....or not so fond farewell to Ibrox!

The most expensive team in Scotland and they are trailing about 15 points behind the leaders................YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! :w00t:

We played Crystal Palace at weekend and lost 3-2, with them scoring the winner in the last minute after being in the lead twice. And to cap it all we had a man sent off too :ranting:

*snigger snigger*


Max - You can go off people, you know :ranting:

Sorry Mars, can't spare any points from us, we need what we can salvage and after losing again the other night, we don't seem to be salvaging much at all.

Oh dear what can the matter be
Pompey appear to be heading down the lavatory! :sad:

I think you may be correct about that one. It's looking like he's Madrid-bound (lucky ba*tar* - considering his age). What a great opportunity for a 34 year old.

There are some clubs who throw caution to the wind and thrust recently retired players into management roles though i agree that Celtic are a huge club and it might not be in their best interests to do so with Keane at this particular time. That said, there are some really good managers who were thrust straight into management at high profile clubs and they seem to have made a real success of it. Frank Rijkaard (Barcelona), Ronald Koeman (Benfica) Stuart Pearce (Man. City) and then you have those who have gone one step further and gone directly into National Team management - Jurgen Klinsmann (Germany), Marco van Basten (Holland)

Out of all those, i think the one former player you would liken Roy Keane to is Stuart Pearce, who appears to have transformed Man. City into a very difficult side to beat , and they are also playing some pretty attractive football too - which is an added bonus for those paying through their teeth to watch their teams.

I wish to submit my belated respects to an Old Trafford legend - bit before (way before!) my time though his influence on Manchester United resonates from generation to generation of dyed-in-the-wool Reds supporters.

For the man whose surname formed a new word in the English Dictionary.............Ge:rolleyes:rgie Best.

Woo, someone here must have been donating points to us!

Hull City have now won two in a row, and are 15th

yay!

Went to Derby at the weekend, we controlled the game pretty much and got a well-deserved goal. We just stayed calm and eventually the goal would come. Quite a few defensive errors, lucky derby didn't have much up front!

Derby got a late penalty which they scored for a handball, I couldn't see it from where I was sitting.

Pretty dull game overall.

Got Sheff Utd next (on sky on Friday!) should be a good game, I know we can beat them, can we do it on the day though?

Harry's back and we lost again - 3-1 against Spurs...:wallbash:

Still at least Liverpool are doing well! :wink2:

Brighton 2 - Hull 1 (sorry Mars)

Thank goodness for that, we really needed to win last night, if we hadn't I think it would have been our season over. I still think we will be in the relegation zone after this afternoons matches but at least we are not down and out before Christmas!

No Ils your out of the relegation zone at the moment, so well done to Brighton.
We actually won today as well so onward and upwards.



Hopefully.

:cry: Back to losing ways again.

Not doing well against teams from here are we?

Woooooo, we won again. We are on a roll now:thumbsup:

I've forgotten what it's like to win :cry:

4-0 Arsenal v Portsmouth. Pompey didn't even turn up, let alone play up.

Hull 2 - 0 Ipswich

Woo! Thats better :thumbsup:

Come on you Spurs! :)

Come on you Spurs! :)


I suppose someone has to support them :unsure:

Pompey have a new money bags...although our cleaner here (who is from Russia) states that he is connected to the Russian mafia.....:unsure: Hmmmm guess the team had better start playing or they'll end up in the foundations of any new stadium that may be built! :shocking:

.....and i believe they may be renaming the club "Vermouth" now??

but no cause for alarm - the Russian mafia are not nearly as terrifying as their Sicilian counterparts. The worst that could happen is that if they lose games then they will forcefully deprive Mr Redknapp of any sleep for four nights in succession......but it's absolutely okay 'cos he always looks as though that is exactly what he's been forced into anyway.

...... sleep well 'Arry!:shocking:

Well done Burton Albion for winning a 3rd round reply against Man U in the FA Cup :thumbsup:

Well, we're out, no surprise really.

But fantastic match on Saturday between Luton and Liverpool, good football played that day.

Well, we're out, no surprise really.


So are we :wacko:

At least we can now concentrate on trying to stay up, although after our disastrous Christmas, I am not convinced we can :cry:

Even better news, Leicester have put Spurs out - in the final minute! Oh, how we laughed.

Come on you Spurs! :)
Oops:w00t:

We all have our crosses to bear. :wink2:

Amazingly we're still in the Scottish Cup - recovering from being 2-0 down at half time to win 3-2:D

Mind you we're away to Hearts in the next round .....................

We're home to Crystal Palace in the next round... probably lose it...

We're midfielderless at the moment... we had a guy on loan at Norwich, we played Norwich and he broke one of our player's legs and then moved permanently to Norwich... the day after one of our midfielders moved to a Dutch team! Three down in two days, and our best midfielder was out all along!

Oops:ninja:

Hull are out to, although not such a shameful 1-0 loss to Aston Villa!

Need to pick up pace in the league slightly now. Come on Tigers!

Yay - Brighton 2 - Leeds 1, what a great win for my boys today. About time too!

Pompey lost 1-0 to Everton the other day...I blame the fact that their manager is so ugly! :bag:

If that were the case Aberdeen should be top of the league!

Meet our manager - Jimmy Calderwood

That's a fantastic result ils! Hope you can build on it!

(I'm secretly hoping leicester, crewe and sheff wed are going down cos three of the people I live support those teams, heh)

Preston sitting in play-off positions still, got a real toughie at the weekend in Burnley... away. It's our derby in the championship and with them being only a few points behind us and on their own soil, it could go either way... I just hope we can do something, think it might go their way though. We must win it though cos we got palace next and that's a big one, theire in fifth and we can possibly catch them, especially if they've got reading this weekend!

Rob...that is just plain scarey....how is your team still in top flight Scottish football? :shocking:

We beat the dingle scum on their own turf, and are still sixth!! Yay! Premier league here we come!

You go to Hull a lot Mars?

I'm thinking of going when we play you in April....

Rob...that is just plain scarey....how is your team still in top flight Scottish football? :shocking:

He's actually quite a good manager - even if he is a tad on the ugly side!

Fly - I don't ever really get the chance now because I'm at uni in Leeds, and i'm not home a lot.

Definately worth a visit, our stadium is awesome (even if i do say so myself!)

Definately worth a visit, our stadium is awesome (even if i do say so myself!)

I assume it's a vast improvement on your old one which was a bit of a dump!

Ah, didn't realise you were at uni there...
Much like me being in manchester now, I only go if it's a game someone I know supports or I'm in Preston for the weekend anyway...

Pompey lost again this weekend....tis sad but would appear to be true that they will be relegated this year...:(

Still at least Scumhampton are playing pants in the lower division...horrah!

I assume it's a vast improvement on your old one which was a bit of a dump!

Indeed, it was a huge dump!

A vast improvement would be an understatement to be honest. Its been built by the council and houses both the Rugby and Football teams, so eiether club didn't have to stump up the costs for it, which would really have limited it.

It's a been done well

Ever get the feeling your club is going down this year :(

Very similar result for us as well, last night, Coastie.:sad:

Is three a crowd in this situation? Or is it a case of the more the merrier? :bored:

Out of the 4 SO teams in the Championship, I think we are team looking most likely to be relegated :cry:

Even though we drew last night, we moved down in to the relegation area :sad:

Derby want our manager :(

Hands off!

I can't believe leicester won...

Good to get a draw against burnley too, they're a good side...

You got leicester yourselves soon haven't you?

Can't see leicester going down, but Millwall and (especially) Crewe are ****ed!

Ya beauty - we beat Rangers 2-0

Well Done Rob, excellent result! I think it is about time that the red-haired one got shown the door - he must be the worst manager that Rangers have ever had!

And he is gone............well he will be gone at the end of the season. Anyone fancy a manager's shop and the most expensive team in Scotland?:ninja:

5-1 against Luton... fantastic!

That was an excellent result, well done Preston.

We managed a draw so not bad, but at the rate we are going I doubt we'll even be in the playoffs. Not good considering they were the favourites to go straight back up. Hah.

Brighton at home for us on Tuesday:w00t:

Yay - we beat Hearts yesterday - top six here we come!!!

Another loss for us :cry: We need to start winning or we will be relegated...

West Ham are now number 6 in the Premiership Table! Who would have thought? They have won 7 games in a row now. Good game last night with Birmingham. 3-0.

Another loss for us :cry: We need to start winning or we will be relegated...

Oops, sorry Ils:wink2:

Mr Buzz took the two eldest buzzlets to this last night. They said it was a really good match.

As an aside, they had a gospel choir singing at half time and they decided to do a rendition of 'I'm forever blowing bubbles' which apparentyl was drowned out by the sound of all the west ham fans booing!!

Oops, sorry Ils:wink2:

:cry: :cry: :cry:

0-0 (AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!) tonight vs. Southampton... we need to be scoring!! We've had far too many 0-0 draws this season... they are the difference between a good team and a great team, and we're just on the wrong side of it!

We lost again :cry:


We really need to pull our socks up and start collecting some points, or it is Division 1 for us next season :sad:

PNE v Brighton today...
You always manage to get points from us...
Good luck

Oh well... nil-nil again.

Our last 4 games have been away at Southampton, Reading, Plymouth and Brighton... it's a joke... someone give us a break, or a home game.

We need to start winning if we're gonna try for the Premiership... and that's just a case of scoring... we generally keep clean sheets. We must be on 10 0-0 draws this season now... I'd hate to be one of those that went to either Plymouth or Brighton... (although the Brighton game was apparently 'entertaining.'

I'd rather give Brighton a point than most other teams though. I hope you can use it well and hopefully stay up (though that's looking even less likely every week...)

Went back to Hull to see City play Plymouth this week

Possibly the worst first half I have ever ever seen, yet somehow, Peter Taylor turned it around ad we came out storming the second half, and ended up winning 1-0!

I think a couple more wins and we should be safe. Just need to get them!

Yaaaay, we got three points today against Sheffield united (my old team as well!)
Getting up there, but I doubt we will be in the playoffs.
But this is the 4th home win in a row, just need to start winning away really:wallbash:

We won 3-0 - but it was against Livingston - so it doesn't really count!

Going to Hull tomorrow...

So if you read this Mars and fancy going to Hull we could go for a pint or something beforehand... maybe...

Anyway, good luck... neither of us really need points anymore...

And it's all over again :(

Had to be to Leeds as well! Very dirty team!
Entertaining game though, power cut and lots of fights to go along with useless ref/linesmen. And I don't have to go to Wales now, HOORAY!

I must admit I was hoping for Preston to win - as I don't like Leeds - hope Watford stuff them in the final!
