Sly will never do more than just a passing reference to our achievements. Failures? Wall to wall coverage, 24 hours a day.

They'll want to cover the games that will potentially decide the title. We'll be involved in those whether they like it or not.

I’ve just heard David Hamilton, on Boom Radio, say that Roger Day, originally from Margate, and another of the Boom DJs, would be very happy today, as his team got off to a flying start on Friday.

Now, I know Hamilton is a big Fulham supporter, but since when has a stuffy 1-0 win against the Cottagers been a flying start.

Day, to his credit, did say that he thought a draw would have been a fairer result.

They peaked too early.

They have to get out of the lowlands first.

Plans stadium so they don't fall foul of their own rules (like the dipper stadium that never was).

In fun news:
Currently near Guildford at a very nice festival called Weyfest… saw 1 city top on a child on Thursday (and me), saw a Chelsea top yesterday. Today , they’re all out, well I’ve seen 2, and talked to one (without shirt)…
Got randomly chatting about the festival , then he asked where i was from ‘Manchester’ (seems I’m the only one here).. ‘manchester, so .. red or blue?’ (Note at this point it really hadn’t dawned on me that he would be a united fan in their natural habitat), ‘City, obviously, as we’re the only team in Manchester’
‘Oh well we’re top of the league!’
‘Ah you’re united… of course … I’m in Surrey… and you’re not top … dont say it, don’t say it.. Brighton are’
‘Oh… didn’t know that… anyway cantona is a legend’
‘Really? Mr kung fu?’
‘Yes’
‘The man who took the Munich charity for 250k?’
‘Oh…what?’
‘Yeah 250k and I presume you knew about the appalling treatment of the Munich families by united?’
‘Err what?’
‘You really don’t know United do you. Or that you bought the league?’
‘No that’s you!’
‘No, you floated on stock exchange, then you were valued at £20m for Knighton takeover and then spent that the next season on new players’
‘Err’

At this point his poor wife admitted she hated football, and I agreed, ‘so does your husband it seems’

A very satisfying chat at the end of a great 3rd night of the festival.

Good work.

Now if some photo shop guru could place one of those bucket hats on the bonce that would be perfect.

 

[M23 Citizen]

until the end of October, City are on TV 5 times and United are on 8 times.... gotta ask... why?

Let’s not ask why. Means we have more 3pm Saturday kick offs so let’s not create a fuss and try and get those changed!
