Looking forward to your (hopeful) rise through the ranks, especially as a newly founded fan run club. I have a feeling I may be supporting one of those soon...

A challenge indeed. Always love to see people travel down the leagues to take a team up and hope you progress well!

Tell us more!

A boring 0-0 for us today, probably the players eyes were on the tie on Tuesday away at Palace.

The attendence debacle continues.



Attendance given as 3,114, though actual attendance closer to 1,911. Latest trick is to boost numbers with lots of free tickets, then count all of those free tickets in the attendence figures even if they weren't all used. Still too many scabs either way.

Did indeed binge through Penny Dreadful and Sillicon Valley, enjoyed them both!

Have also shot through the latest trending tv show, Stranger Things. Loved the 80s theme and whilst the story seemed familiar it was still enjoyable all the way through

Currently trying to get into the 4400 on Netflix, got good reviews from friends but I'm struggling with it half way through the first season.

Central Intelligence - 8/10

I've never enjoyed a film with Kevin Hart or Dwayne Johnson in before, so I was very pleasantly surprised by this. Only watched it on a whim and I'm glad I did, entertaining!

Tried watching the Leicester - Arsenal game on BT Sport stream (all paid for), still as bad as last year

All the Liverpool fans on 606 turning on Klopp now...

I heard it was personal terms that he failed?

Correct as far as I'm aware. Though at the end of the year you'd need to pay another £10 if you wished to continue being a Premium Member!

Some humorous stuff in the BBC column today:


Also, Watford are supposedly signing Pereyra from Juventus...that would be quite a snatch?

I can't help but like this Man City side...

Aguero with 2 penalties in the game so far, both not scored. Never thought he was the best penalty taker, surely City have better in their ranks? Thankfully for them Silva has scored inbetween penalty misses to give them a lead.

Is Yaya Toure still at City too? Thought he was meant to be off elsewhere bit haven't heard much...

Bit late but:

1. City
2. United
3. Liverpool
4. Arsenal
5. Chelsea
6. Spurs
----------
18. Watford
19. Hull
20. Burnley

Fair play to them for clearing it up.

Still, it won't be long until we see more of this imo...

New Nice kit, the heart is made up of the names of those who died during the recent attack there.

Coming to a club near you! Courtesy of the Oystons. Dear club owners, if they can do it, why can't you!

Most on our forums do too, it just doesn't appeal to me.

Maybe it's just Danny Pugh.

2nd round draw in full, two fixtures depending on tonight's game.



Didn't expect us to beat the murderers, now it's the Glad All Over derby down at Palace. Hope it's a tiny crowd so our pilfering owners don't get much to line their pockets with.

The Nice Guys - 8/10

Really enjoyable film, not what I expected at all. Perfect? Not by any means, but more than worth the watch.

15 teams so far, time is running out so if you haven't signed up yet I'd be quick about it!

Is the second round draw made after tonight's games or on a Friday?

The whole defence at City needs culling.

In other wild gossip, supposedly we're after Juanma from Hearts after he's been frozen out by the manager. I really don't see that happening!

Our away kit is finally unveiled, really not keen myself.

So the new look League Cup kicks off tonight, the first round in full:



Notlob visit us tonight, should be a relative easy win for that lot and their fans will hopefully outnumber our scabs 2 to 1 in the ground so it'll be like a home game for them.

Hmm, loaded on the three different computer/tablet/phone I tried, have attached it here anyway.

Yes, that is the worry

Don't think the Community Shield is worthy of its own thread, so will post here about it.

Kick off today at 4pm, Leicester v Man United. Mourinho does not have a good record in the competition, I think the Leicester players will be more up for it too. As such, I'm going to plump for a 3-2 Leicester win!

Lierpool thrashed Barcelona 4-0!

Is there a winner of an actual cup in this then?

Moved on from eggy bread now, omelettes and hash browns all the way!

Official attendance was 3,754. View from the terraces, amongst the away fans:


Far too many scabs for my liking. People with piss poor excuses such as "I need my football fix", "I've been a season ticket holder all my life and won't stop now", "I'm taking my son, like my dad did with me", "I take my Gran for the day out" - and more ridiculous points which completely miss the point. Go and watch AFC Blackpool, AFC Fylde, even the Codheads but don't go to Bloomfield and give that horrible family your money. Oyston's were obviously worried about the attendance as they were giving away lots of free tickets. Speaking of tickets, HMRC might be interested to see the tickets that were paid for: https://twitter.com/aidangreen/status/762015592614420480 . To continue the derision of those attending, a member of our Supporters' Trust who in their own words are at the "forefront of the ethical boycott", has renewed her season ticket

Otherwise, I believe we won the game through a deflected shot and an own goal. E I E I O...
