  1. Really sorry to hear that Graham, not what we expect between city fans.

    I was in block R and there was a bit a "t''do" between a couple of idiots behind me. lots of bravado and little else but a few words along the lines of "you''re missing the game you idiots" seem to embarrass them both as everyone else started laughing at them and they soon stopped it. Cue the embarrassing silence for the next 45 mins. Too much sherry me thinks. It killed the atmos in our block. boooo.

    I have to say half time wasn''t the friendliest experience I''ve had away at Palace and even though it was crammed, it always is at that s-hole. Something in the air?

    As Gary Lineker pointed out when reviewing Darren Bent''s debut for Villa; "He had just one chance - and scored. That''s what you get for £24m!".

    Yesterday it sounded like Holt had one chance and unfortunately he didn''t take it.

    I''d like to state a fact that when he was at Charlton AFC young D.Bent had the WORST ratio of goals to shots of any player the had scored more than 5 goals in the Prem. Ok has has banged them in but he has carried this with him to most of the clubs he has played for...

    ...then look how much Grant Holt brings to the team and brings other players into the game.

    Ok Bent is still a proven striker but less face it cost 48 times as much.

    Get off Grant Holts back, as a few have said on here he has tunr a few away draws into wins for us and can be allowed the odd miss. Drogba & Torres miss when they should score as well you know.

  3. close and quickest combined/

    that''ll be norwood jnct overground = 13 mins fast from London bridge.

    don''t believe the tfl website...its was designed by people who obviously have never been on public transport in London.

    thornton heath is only better if you are coming from Victoria (or west) or if you fancy a walk on the wild side. (the pubs are better in norwood too) booo to you capital canaries! baaad choice of pub! booo

    Foul by Jens Berthel Askou on Ayegbeni Yakubu, free kick awarded. Assist on the goal came from Richie Wellens.[/quote]

    71:45 Sent off

    Jens Berthel Askou is sent off by the referee for violent conduct.

    Did anyone want that bet then? Damn!

    I reckon we''ll get him back now. He''s poor, sorry, I know you''ve got to support your own, but he''s poor.

  6. [quote user="Nexus_Canary"]A 34 year old central midfielder o.OUnless its another Wilbraham 75k steal I sincerly hope we are looking at younger players who might actually have a future which lasts longer than the next 6 months.[/quote]

    a decent player on his day but hardly "young and hungry"? plus as he''s not played for a while he''s hardly going to walk into contention...so we''d have him for the last 13/14 weeks of the season at best.

  7. I was envious of the 38k fans but then I quickly remembered they were getting less than 20k at some games last season...fickle fair weather northern baskets. A city that size with a club of that history SHOULD be getting those numbers every week.

    Plus, could you hear their fans in the last 20 mins? nope, it was all arsenal which proves their is still a loyal underbelly with the big clubs that goes unnoticed at the corporate retail park they call the emirates.
