    I know quite a few ex-fans that quit watching the club in the mid- sixties when we sold a full forward line of a very promising team. Most seemed to become Leeds followers.Many have never been back. It brought on the slump into the lower leagues in the seventies.
    Since then the 'playing field' has become more uneven, making it virtually impossible for clubs of our size to progress. While very frustrating for us fans, I guess it's now all part of the game. If the people that began coming after our initial success can't see that, maybe it's better they find something else to do on match day.

    Whilst there is the obvious partisan element to football you've also got to factor in the entertainment element of going to football matches.

    Basically it's not there and at times could be dire in the successful periods of Warne's reign

    To compound their stupid statements, the August transfer window was still open at the time when the "bigger" clubs could sign who they wanted.........

    What do we change the hours number to now? Must be way beyond 72? Care to put a 1, 2 or 3 in front of it?

    Edit - that’s more like it - late flurry of the ones left or a tacit acceptance of L1 planning?

    Latest article in the ‘Tiser seems to cast doubt over whether there will be anybody coming in during this transfer window. If so, I think we know where we’re heading…..
