Just imagine interviewing the two managers stood together after a game after a derby now.

Or after Vinnys winner in 2012

They said it before kick off. The Swindon fans were singing ‘who are ya’ and the commentator said ‘it’s only the best team in the world.’

I think we were there earlier in the days when Arsenal a good team and good guys with Thierry Henry them at his superb peak.
He came on to a chorus of 'who the f.ing hell are you?' Loads of other self deprecating chants and 'boring, boring Arsenal' stuff in praise of the gunners.
When you're 4 down after about 20 mins, you have to make the most of it.
'Best fans in the land and all the world'

Yes I was there. The company I worked for at the time (Austin's Steel, which later merged with Trumans of Trumans for Steel advert fame at MR) had 3 season tickets to use to entertain customers. I think I took a couple of guys from Bolton to that game, I think they were rags tbh.
Anyway the 3 season tickets were very useful as the season progressed,they helped me get tickets for Everton FA Cup q- final (home and away), the semi- final vs Ipswich, and the Final replay vs Spurs.
The directors used them to get tickets for the actual FA Cup Final, even though they weren't football fans at all,they just used them for the big occasion.
I had to pay way over the odds for the Saturday final itself, which really pissed me off at the time.

Just read that, and it seems the muen have responded to it by printing a story about us having a smaller squad than everyone else. Both these papers are proper bitches, to and fro with constant slagging on a near daily basis

They’re owned by the same publisher.

It’s all about clicks.

I bet he was!

I certainly was mate,see my latest post!!

If a future wife says you can’t go to the match then it’s only a matter of time before she becomes a current future ex wife. ;-)

She knew I was City mad on our first ( blind) date, as I had been to Maine Road that afternoon to see City play Bolton.

Keeps City fans tuned in. No complaints on ITV for me. Still not heard off BT wankers though. Three days they said, hopefully drowning in complaints!

Same here , BT ten day reply deadiline ends on Monday , then they get the phone call and everything is cancelled landline , telly , sport , mobile , the lot , bought a couple of phones on good deals last year and spent over a grand , so they can f*ck off if they dont take my complaint seriously , plenty of other alternatives.

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Yeah, McCoist was decent.

tbf , McCoist is always decent even on Talkshite , he had better watch his step if he doesnt conform to the agenda he could be sacked.
