Why do you insist on getting your information from the Hitler supporting Daily Mail? They carry no credibility.
Did they make it up? Have you actually read the article? It was an investigation, as for carrying no credibility look no further than the nearly bankrupt Guardian or the universally hated BBC.

Yet I am granted your sympathy. I feel honoured. Back on topic. And something you might actually agree with. Feeling part of the club is not an essential requirement for supporting a club is it? When I go I don't need to feel I'm part of them, I just go and watch and support them, hopefully I'm entertained when doing that ( v Blackpool my last game I certainly wasn't)
Football isn’t just the game, it’s tribal, it’s about where you are from, it’s what your family have supported it’s in your DNA. I know what you mean about feeling part of it, I guess that’s personal for each supporter.

Surprised that the "sold out signs" have not gone up for this one yet.
A quick look at our ticketing site shows that we have left:
West Stand Upper : 0 West Stand Lower : 2 North Stand: 41 East Stand: 91
Hopefully not too many s/t holders feel like they dare not go to the game!!
The west stand upper has basically been sold out for nearly every game this season.

Typically you have focused on negatives. My opinion is that it is not a sh..thole but of course you will have no interest in that will you?
If you like it that’s all that matters, Earsden village used to be alright back in the day.

Don't worry, conorntfc will take care of it! Been Barnsley twice. Both times with the Cobblers, both times we've won. Doubt it will be of any importance to us this time around... probably prefer not walking through thousands of angry Tykes having ruined their party! Wigan away at Springfield Park back in the Ninties anyone? I was there on that grass bank, went to get a pie and missed our goal.

Given that player's fitness levels are higher these days and they are not to be found in the Flamingo Club on Friday nights it is surprising that there not more hamstring injuries, thigh strains etc back then.
I think PattCobb frequents the Flamingo club perhaps he could confirm?

The international space station which orbits the Earth and can be seen with a telescope is a myth? And the shuttle crews never got into orbit either? Lay off the Buckfast!
That’s technically in lower earth orbit, 254 miles up, just to give some context concord flew at 16 miles high and the moon is 239,000 miles up so no one has left earth’s orbit FACT.

I understand but the plain fact of the matter is that these injuries just weren't so prevalent back in the day, for whatever reason.
*Nor were food banks! * have I said something wrong again.

Players & Management - B Doing OK, nothing more nothing less, really hope we pick up some real "scalps" by the end of the season, ie beat one of the big boys. Ownership - B imho Facilities - C A lot of worse grounds but many better ones. Match Day Experience - Never sure what this is supposed to mean. Most fans do different things on a matchday, lots of them not involving the club at all until about 15 mins before KO Community - A- My impression is that is is pretty good Do I feel part of the club? - You cannot really grade this can you? It's either Y or N. And for me it's a N but of course living in Cov and only going 6-7 times a season why would I feel like it is a Y?
You have my sympathy living in Cov.

Keep the insults coming Manny it is what you are good at but has no effect on me. It is like being back in the school play ground sometimes on here.
It’s not an insult, it’s just an observation, I do like your match previews though.

Bollocks that is agreed with by the majority of the population of the country. (Not the insane of course)
Do you mean the utter w@nkers that frequent twitter or X 😂. I don’t think so.
