  1. It has to do with the fact we were second in the table around christmas time or maybe a bit later - i dont remember, with Bellamy just broken thru and on a streak of form and Iwan providing an excellent foil for Bellers, and Muscat went thru Bellamy and broke his leg and we didn''t even get a free kick for it, but it left our promotion hopes shattered.

    Plus the fact they are scum. Fans are awful - arrogant, abusive, attempt to intimidate outside the ground etc etc. They always hark back to their glory days and cannot accept that they are now a small team - probably the smallest from the area - WBA, brum and villa are all bigger, better supported teams, - coventry are the only localish team smaller than them.


  2. I looked at going today - then realised the train fare from my girlfriend''s in Kettering was 20more than i pay from Birmingham which is further away. 50quid seems a bit steep considering the distance involved and i just couldnt justify it this close to xmas.

    Condolences on missing the game, it is a sad legacy of Thatcher privatising the industry that it is cheaper to fly to Spain than it is to travel 60 or 70miles by train.


  3. Marshall

    Semmy, Taylor, Shacks, Camara,

    Smith, Pattison, Fozzy, Hucks

    Cureton, Evans

     

    I can''t see why Smith is in for Croft? and why Curo is starting again? Surely it should be a big man with Evans?

    Also Fozzy confirmed as Captain for the season according to radio Norfolk. Good move in my books, looks like Fozzy has a future here under Roeder, IF he stays injury free!!


  4. I don''t think you can leave big Dion out. Smith hasnt done anything to warrant a start so i''d say the first XI was the better option. Smith on the bench always leaves us the option to bring him on for Dion if he starts to tire, or just to mix it up a bit if its not going our way.

  5. I am of polish origin, i have no problem admitting this. Miroslav Klose was born in and grew up in Poland with his German parents. he plays for Germany, or do you think he should play for Poland?

    Lukasz Podolski was born in Poland, to Polish parents, from a Polish family. He grew up in Poland until his career took him to Germany and he now plays in the German national team. (Judas!)

    Not everything is as cut and dried as you guys seem to think. There are situations which bring up grey areas, and i am one of those circumstances! I made my decision from a young age, due to the socialisation i received from my parents, and the place i felt was MY country and my home and the place i took a pride in saying i was from.

    Back to the point, you all seem to be rooting for Hatton because you are british and so is he. I am not rooting for Mayweather because he is not British - I am supporting Mayweather as i hate Ricky Hatton. I don''t think he is intelligent, He hasn''t risen from the depths of social lows to become the best fighter, he doesn''t interview very well, and resorts to copycat tactics from long-forgotten pre-fight press conferences in a bid to intimidate (see his finger across the throat taunt in reference to Bernard Hopkins)

    Quotes from his latest press conference:

    “ I’m my usual witty, sarky, laugh-a-minute self . " - Isn''t there a hint of arrogance there which you all hate mayweather for?

    “I knew what Mayweather was trying to do. He was trying to get that extra edge but it was not going to happen. " - Sherlock Holmes award goes to Ricky Hatton on deducing that one.

    “Stuff like that is water off a duck’s back to me. But for a guy like Mayweather, who lives off confidence so much and the mind games he plays, that would have hurt him much more than it would’ve hurt me. " a juvenile, laughable playground/wrestling style finger run across the throat? i bet Mayweather is Sh***ing himself now!

    “I will go away now for a coffee and a c**p and forget it." - The everest of IQ strikes again!
