I blame the rags, Chester's regular fans are probably sat in the swamp eating prawn sandwiches instead of supporting their local team.
they are
i met the local mp, a rag, and her son, another rag and prawn munching ticket holders
irony of irony, guess where they are from?

near norwich!
 
Chester is my local club and, although I'm obviously very saddened by their demise, its clear that no-one was to blame other than the club itself.
No club ever deserves to go to the wall but if any club did deserve it...it was Chester City.
For 126 years they have achieved precisely nothing. Nada. Zip.
A single promotion to what is now the 2nd Division. The entire rest of the time spent in the bottom tier playing soul-breaking, dismal, one-dimensional, sub-Sunday league football.
Not a memorable cup run in all that time nor a single giant-killing of note.
Not a decent team assembled in all that time (that maybe didnt even achieve anything but at least became folklore in local minds).
And producing only one player of significance. One single frickin player in 126 years. Not even anyone who went on to grace the Championship.
Their complete dearth of achievement is actually conversely a breath-taking achievement in itself. Virtually impossible to pull off even if they'd meant to from the get-go. To be so consistently, unrelentingly shit for such an incredibly long amount of time.

A few years back Mark Lawrenson said that Chester 'has never really been a footballing city anyway'. Utter bullshit. How can a city - made up of thousands of ever-changing individuals - be uniformly not interested in watching the national sport on their doorstep?
Nope its not the people of Chester thats to blame for not turning up week in, week out. Its the club. Who have failed us throughout their entire history.
And now that finally the lame duck has been put down and the fans are looking to build afresh things might hopefully be different. Because - despite my rant here - the genuine fans have my deepest sympathies.
 
The Mirror? Nothing more than fucking bog roll, ignore it!

Never mind Chester City going to the wall, the day this piss poor excuse for a newspaper goes up in smoke, chucking lazy, pissed up halfwits like Brian Reade onto the dole queue, will be a happy day for the people of this country.

The man's bordering on illiterate, so I wouldn't worry to much about the thoughts that he came up with whilst sat on the bog last night & thought he'd share with us all!

Arsehole - another one to add to the banned list at Eastlands! Him & fucking Winter can cuddle up to each other in the car park outside & make up what they think might have happened on the pitch from there; the rest of their articles seem to be utter fantasy anyway, so their fucking match reports might as well be too!
 
Haha yeh sorry Corky. I've been reading the earnest eulogies in the local press and my rant has been brewing these past few weeks.

Chester is a prosperous city with a large population. They also have Cheshire - a county with the highest concentration of millionaires - surrounding it.
How they have managed to mis-manage themselves time after time after time - with a succession of owners who shouldnt even be allowed pet licenses such is their overall incompetence - is truly outstanding work.

I remember Chester knocking out Leeds and getting to the semi-finals of the League Cup in the 70s and giving Villa a tough time over the 2 legs.
 
No mention of the 30 or so academy graduate we have nurtured, some of who have gone on to become international players (infact to of those who were mentioned for being in miami....Micah and SWP)

as far as nurturing young talent........there isnt one club who can hold a candle next to city

funny that we are the near neighbours as well....no mention of utd, or the scouse teams which are pretty near neighbours as well as the other north west teams

this is just another example of how the media will do anything to attack our club at present and this is why it annoys me when some people on here and in the stands give credence to reports/supposed comments/supposed attitudes etc etc etc blah blah blah blah blah about our players......all we do is help them feed the fires!!!

One player of note...? Have you forgotten the Futcher twins...?
