    Folks, apologies if this has already been mentioned (I couldn’t find anything).

    NCFC fan of over 30 years, Robert Aldridge who sat in the Snakepit sadly passed away suddenly on Monday aged 60.

    A friend who knew him from working at the hospital, where he was a much loved porter, told me last night that the club had been approached and asked put out an announcement at todays game but apparently it was too late; although there will be something in the Programme for the next game.

    Lets make this happen with a minutes applause at 60 mins.

    Please pass this on to everyone you know who is going to the game.

    Cheers.

    Please don't come bleating on here yet again about away memberships at the start of December when only 1,000 tickets ( the full allocation by the way ) for Luton on Boxing Day go on sale. I have paid my ÂŁ25 and will be having Luton as my match pick.

    What happens if more than 1,000 people select this one as their match pick?

    Problem with this forum is that there is a little ‘clique’ who always think they are right, stick together (whatever) then when somebody challenges something they say resort to just coming back with “BINNER’.

    The age of posters shouldn’t really matter but one day it will become a problem when the coffin dodgers can’t dodge anymore.

    Perhaps if we were all a bit kinder to new posters then we may get some new/younger blood on here, which will keep things going for a few years.

    Anyway, enjoy the nice weather, not long until we will back at CR hopefully watching us win a lot more than last season.

    I was there too.
    A wonderful  day out.
    Two great sets of supporters, a brilliant atmosphere and two teams without any ‘superstars’ who gave their all.   

    If we are honest the game itself wasn’t that good but the icing on the cake was….. we won.

    The really sad thing about all this is that before VAR referees made mistakes, now they make clear and obvious errors.

    Who decides on the latter? Another referee sitting in his little box, who next week could be the on field referee making a clear and obvious error, according to the VAR official who last week was the on field referee who made a clear and obvious error.

    Confusing?

    9 times out of 10 it’s about opinion, unless it’s goal line technology or offside.

    In the aftermath of another manager leaving/being sacked (Bielsa at Leeds) who thinks it would be a good idea to include Managers in the two transfer windows?

    Clubs currently only have 2 periods each year to bring in /ship out players, so why should it be any different for managers.

    I know there will be pros and cons but just wanted to gauge opinion.

    @pearsos of course fans react to circumstances.  No one is arguing that we shouldn’t be passionate but we’re talking about slagging players off mid-game.  

    It’s interesting that one of your comments is  “if the team need a bit of encouragement fans rally behind them.”   There’s not so much evidence of this right now, it feels that if they aren’t playing well from the off they are rounded on.

     

    I have to disagree that they are rounded on from the start. It’s normally later in games when the majority of fans know that we are going to lose AGAIN.

    Take two recent home games where the atmosphere was very different.

    Against Man Ure the crowd stayed with the team for the whole game because they gave it a go, didn’t make silly mistakes and stayed in the game. The applause at the end showed the fans appreciation.

    With the Arsenal game it was clear that once they scored a second just before half time it was game lost. In the concourse at half time all the talk was about how many Arsenal would end up scoring.

    If we all just sat there and said nothing how would we get the message across that we are not happy? 
    Yes you can blame the owners, yes you can blame the manager but why can’t  you blame the players?

    So, it’s ok to shout Delia out or Dean out but not tell a player to wake up or tell him he’s playing sh1t.
