It feels a bit like teams drop a bit, realise they've dropped and put on a bit of gas for a few weeks to move away. From our point of view, there's been this group 4-6 points above us, but its different teams in a different order.
Leicester can only drop 13 points in 18 games to beat it now. Around Christmas, they basically needed 2 pts a game to break the record, it's now edged up to about 2.3 pts a game. They weren't great last night, but it boiled down to one keeper makes five or six great saves, the other makes a couple ...
Seeing Sheffield United winning yesterday got me to wondering - is there a similar "record watch" thread on the Derby County message board where every year they track whether anyone will nick their less prestigious lowest ever points tally record? Back in the day,mate of mine's lower leag...
Some local info. The walk to the ground from the station goes past Wigan Pier but don't bother. it's quicker to go to the left where the road splits and go via the canal tow path just over the bridge than go right on the road and around Asda/Retail park. I would have suggested a detour to Trencherf...
Not sure how different today's performance was to recent performances with better results. We don't have a clear style or identity to create chances; we've just had individuals producing moments of quality and today they didn't. Wigan weren't any better but they did. Not saying our recent run was a...
Started a bit slow, but patient and kept the ball well. They had a few half chances, nothing really threatening. Still a bit slow, but patient and kept the ball well. They took a half chance well. Still a bit slow, but patient and kept the ball well. Half time. OK, come out with a bit of fire? Nope....
Already here. After heavy snow yesterday it's all pretty well melted away on the roads. Just returned from the Spoons in Wigan where they had £1 a pint Doombar, not sure that will last till Saturday but the equally nice Ruddles was £1.77 a pint I'm in Manc, looking out over the ship canal. It cold.
I'm told we've got a thread on the Cambridge Utd forum with a lot of support. The donation to Vale fans go fund me is playing extremely well. https://cambridgeunitedfc.proboards.com/thread/10931/solidarity-reading-fans To be fair clapping will definitely help the situation. Is there anything to be ...
Jeez, over £3000 raised in 48 hours? That is some effort from our supporters. Think my favourite is " £16 for the 16 points deducted by the EFL so far at Reading. Sorry for all the grief on Saturday. At least you got to enjoy a goal for 5 seconds. Enjoy the rest of the season ." yeah, gre...
Ruben’s interview with The Chronicle today suggests he’s not far from packing it in. Getting nothing encouraging from the owner, losing his coaching team around him, having to front-up to the media for all the crap, etc. No wonder he is mentally tired. Just read it and yes he does sound pretty fed ...
I am going to this one as I haven’t been to the DW Stadium before and I’ll be up in Chesterfield. Stupidly, I thought it would be about an hour on the train, but now I have bothered to check it’s going to be a bit of pain. I can’t be bothered to drive so it’ll be trains, buses and taxis. I would ha...

Surprised it took that long to sell out. Man Utd away last season sold out in 20 minutes because the ticket office were idiots and massively underestimated demand I'm guessing it's because there are only a relatively small number of people who'd go to away games who were eligible (online at least) ...
How come you are in if you are not a season ticket holder- so can’t buy for a while ?? You can buy in person at the TO without meeting the criteria Surely the ticket office should be applying the selling criteria? https://i.pinimg.com/564x/33/b5/50/33b550e93c6ddbeb495452b733236b32.jpg
