Re: Rival Watch

Pepe the Horseman We've absolutely fcuked Port Vale's season. 1 point from 6 games since we got the game abandoned.


I certainly do not wish them ill, but barring tennis balls, would they really have won then?

Re: MATCHWATCH : Wigan Athletic (h)

Royal_jimmy Well we're making the effort to turn up and support the players. Now lets hope the players turn up and put in a great performance!


…and I expect 1871 will be loud. At least until the 0:3 event.

Re: STH, will you renew next season?

I probably will, depending on manager situation and not too many changes for 1871. Really like away games, and am still going, fullwell knowing the outcome.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Rotherham United (h)

Our season in a nutshell. Just about beating the teams we should beat. Big weight lifted off our shoulders. Not unrealistic that we could stay up without getting another point all season. I doubt that. We need another 7-8 points I think Yeah, Wigan with a three point winning streak could do it. Rea...

Gosh isn’t SKY coverage good? They must be using SKY broadband for our game, and a 16yo YTS “engineer”. ‘PLEASE TRY LATER”

Re: MATCHWATCH : Swansea City (h)

Lumley ran over to their fans and was just celebrating in front of them. Someone threw a bottle at him, he picked it up, poured it out and threw it back etc. just generally acting like an arse - standard Lumley stuff. Funny for Reading fans, annoying as hell for the opposition I think he drank the ...

Overall another good effort from Club 1871 Are you being ironic, or is it deja vu all over again? Not sure what you mean. I'm in favour of it and think it's been better this season.

Is anyone else, in the back of their mind, wondering which wheel is going to fall off and how bad? Been conditioned to think any good run is only temporary over the last decade, and will be followed by shite.

Not a great away day experience for me today, my daughter was hit by a flare after they scored and was very lucky that it exploded against the concrete and not her legs as she was wearing shorts. Very very upset and has a massive bruise on her hip https://oatcakefanzine.proboards.com/thread/305472/...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Cardiff City (h)

The rules are quite clear, if they are deemed to make a genuine attempt to play the ball it`s a yellow, it looked like he was pulled back by the neck or shoulder. I know the rule. My point is ref's tend to interpret it in a way that keeps the player on the park. If Ince was brought down outside box...
