  1. I've seen the club say that Ruth has nine goals and @Jan Vojáček said the same on the match thread yesterday so I've obviously incorrectly given him a goal somewhere. Help me out pls.
  2. I think the last time I woke up properly excited for a game was on 24th March 2018.
  3. We could make the first day of the year dateless. 28th December becomes Ne'erday becomes 1st January.
  4. I discovered King's Park on the day of the Iwelumo game and I've never been back to Mount Florida post match. You simply walk straight on to the platform with absolutely no queueing involved.
  5. Put this on thinking that it won't take too long to draw four groups of four. Then realised that I'd forgotten about all the diddies in b,c and d. I quite like feeling like a Billy big baws.
  6. With the election result, we know there are roughly 225 trust members. Our average attendance (league only) is 539 this season. I think it's reasonable to assume that around half of our core support aren't trust members. I would urge anyone that can, to join as soon as they can.
  7. I thought I had Ian Lavender but his name was not on ze list.
  8. I'm afraid I have no idea either. I thought it might have been because Hardaker possibly had something to do with the funding but it appears the sales of Graeme Sharp and Murdo MacLeod paid for it.
  9. Fair point and he might be a better manager than Farrell but Jan made the point more eloquently than I could.
  10. I accidentally switched the wiper sensitivity thing in the car off today and the wipers just wouldn't go on. I had no idea it was possible to make the intermittent wiper more (or less) sensitive. I've only been driving that particular car for eight fucking years!
  11. He certainly has but you should see who he gave us as neebors.
  12. We are going to be just the eighth nation to play in the opening match of both a world cup and European championship. And we will be the first that has done so that has never played those games as either host or holder of the competition. The others are France, Switzerland, Germany, England, Poland, Belgium and Italy.
  13. Cheers for bringing it to my attention BR. I've never really gone back to put the managers in but it's probably something I should do.
  14. While I'm in a mood, I'm going to say something that's been bugging me. I think it's disgraceful that the club don't have insurance against players being injured. My employer has insurance against any injuries that occur in the workplace and I also have personal accident insurance through them which costs me 0.06% of my gross salary which is peanuts but it would cover the price of an operation if I chose to go private in order to return to work. Instead we're having to crowdfund to pay for Greig Young's knee op. If I were a footballer, I would happily take a small pay cut knowing that I wouldn't have to wait long to have surgery if I happened to get a bad injury. It took two months until Young had the op which could've taken place much sooner had the club not had to get the begging bowl out.
  15. I should be flabbergasted but I'm not. I've come to expect the unexpected now.
  16. That's the dream but afaik, the club aren't reliant on the owners as they put nothing in and don't contribute to the day to day running of the club.
  17. I missed my school Christmas party to attend that game although the game was possibly the better choice. What I find more amazing than it not being long after we were a top flight team is that we won the league the following season. And iirc, it was a Monday night which is some journey to attend your first ever game.
  18. There was a moment in the first half where he was in no man's land and it was sheer luck that the ball ended up in front of him where he was able to get hold of it. He's still very young however and maybe a loan spell will do him good rather than sitting on the bench for us but I do fear that we're a level too high for him at the moment.
  19. Ice and fire wellness which is the place the team go to for cryogenic treatment. I've no idea if it's a one off or not but I don't think it complemented the strip very well.
  20. Harry deserves a massive round of applause but I think it could be his downfall. He was being treated in exactly the same way in the bar as Paul was just last night
