If I had it my way, Id scrap the league cup and the silly pizza cup. Then *perhaps* the FA Cup would regain its old magic. There's too many games. Even 'little clubs' like us don't take any of these games seriously...

Been saying this for a while about the League Cup. In an ideal world you wouldn't scrap it but the game has evolved to a point where even the lower league teams are starting to put out weaker teams in the League Cup.
The FA have shown they are all about money and dont give a s*** about the fans. There was massive up roar (rightly so) with the whole super league thing saying Football is for the fans / everyone and not the greedy few. And now they have got a slice of the pie with the greedy few they dont give a s*** about the other 700+ teams who participate in the FA cup.

Last shout to see if anyone has a spare few minutes to help me out with this research project.

Status Quo played there in May 1995, but there is no mention of a match between the 2 clubs on the date on the ticket

I'm not sure as a club we overly care as we don't take cup compitions seriously

I've been contacted by a fellow Cobblers supporter who asked me if I have any record of this game. I don't. As Coventry weren't in our division that season, the timing of the game and the price of the ticket would all lead me to believe it was maybe a testimonial? Anybody recall the game?

The new Nigel has been brought in to fatten up the club ready for sale, and a nice little profit.

I was really hoping after an uncustomary hiatus from you regarding the club motives for things. That you could have come up with something better than that. 

But like Melly, I am very interested in how you arrived at that conclusion. And how you anticipate he will manage this “fattening” up.

As a matter of interest, in your opinion what would that fattening up entail. Additionally wouldn't it be a bit counter productive to get someone in to fatten something up whilst committing to giving 25% away at the same time. That is of course unless you are going to fatten it up by considerably more than 25%, which would be impressive.

Whilst I'm sure this is not the case in this example, I read and hear a lot of what are on face value nonsensical demands, assumptions and statements around the clubs financial plans generally. So given the usual standard of hysterical bòllocks, I'm just a bit intrigued on your thoughts on how this may play out?

Awww bless they’re using our attack dog phrase we used for them.
What an absolute compliment….

Get down Shep.

I see another left wing government is doing well in Scotland with the hate crime bill 65,000 reports in the first day, Celtic fans freeze framing the TV and taking pictures of Rangers fan singing and report them absolutely pathetic.
