    Get The Crowd "Going" Music

    I am sure I heard Big Brian say on Saturday that the club were looking for suggestions for music to, I assume, get the crowd "going" shortly before the teams come out onto the pitch. He said that any suggestions should be sent on to the commercial department. Did I imagine that request from...

    Big brother by stealth ?

    More and more laws coming in telling us what we can't do. Annoying and often pointless announcements broadcast on public systems, e.g. TFL wherever you go. The rot has set in. It wouldn't surprise me if the government isn't sponsoring and playing subliminal messages in tha background of all...

    I know it's a month and a bit before the fixture announcements, but what would your ideal 1st fixture of the League One season be? For me Millwall away or at home!!

    Stadium plans include 127 flats ?

    Interesting front page in the Echo today saying that the stadium plan includes 127 flats in 5 or 6 story buildings. The paper shows the picture of the big buildings which I assumed was the hotel. Ron has says its part of the plan to make the stadium a 24/7 living environment. Seems odd it was...

    Season Tickets

    Saturday morning I pitched up at the Home of Football to renew my "Season Card" to take advantage of the Early Bird Discount. So, being the organised so and so I am, I had the form filled out correctly, and had a cheque made payable to the club for the £380 price. I then waited for an hour and...

  11. Managers making their transfer targets public

    Just a few thoughts on all of the latest 'Players refusing to sign their new contract' news. I think we should wait and see what Flavs, Dudfield, Che, Nicky and Jay do re their contracts, before we get too worked up about whether they will or won't sign. It would be somewhat ironic if a player...

    What a nightmare... we got our tickets pretty late and ended up with a choice of first or last row. I chose last and things were looking good as the hard rain lashed down before kick-off... But we quickly realised that we couldnt see the opposite end of the pitch without ducking down - but...

    Announce the signing of Gary Havelock, having already announced that Mark Loram will be re-signing for the next season. It means we have the last 2 British World Champions riding for us. Thoughts? Personally, I've not been really convinced by Havelock as a top class rider in recent years...
