Definitely less times than York City have scored 6 against us , which was most times we played them if I recall

Seems like a long time ago that he burst into the team in the championship and couldn't stop scoring, thought we had a star who we'd end up selling for 10 million. I really like him though as a person, not sure of his contract situation but assuming he has another year i'd keep him and hope he...

For me it's the fact that for the first time in 40 odd years we have an owner with the best interests of the club at heart and despite my frustrations at Critchley and the style of football I love the club and would hate to reduce our ambition even 0.01% by not commiting to them in the way that...

Kinda, yeah , the football was always pragmatic in the championship season but we accepted it because we understood we were trying to compete at a level where we were overmatched.

How times change, think it was west brom away where he stood staring at the fans with tears in his eyes as they gave him complete adulation.

Will be my first year back on the Fylde since the early 2000's so i'll be getting one regardless, the last one I had was during the Colin Hendry season so i'm sure whatever we get will be preferable to that.

I went every week for about 20 years where other than the 96 big Sam season we never had a hope of even threatening the Championship. The high point for me was when Steve Macmahon had us playing some decent footy and for one week around January time we were 7th in the table for a week or two...

Doesn't matter how good the recruitment team is it's still going to be a struggle bringing in players who can instantly turn our fortunes unless we're willing to pay twice the going rate in wages, which we're not. To be honest i've lost track of the comings and goings since those blokes from...

Was definitely a gut punch after the elation of the double-penalty moment, I don't think i've ever seen that happen before or since. Anyway, yeah - i'd strategically eliminate a goal that would have kept us up that season. The 2nd season would have been a mighty struggle and might have delayed...

Yeah Coventry is a pretty large city , hence it's ruthless targeting by the Luftwaffe, around 400k I believe (I'm a bit of a population nerd). I'm struck by the comparison to Hull, promoted the same season, first season back we finished above them with very similar attendances. They're now...

Hate to say it but they are basically everything we are hoping we could one day be. Solidified in the championship. 4 sided stadium with ample capacity and facilities. Top 2 tier worthy training ground. If Simon Sadler achieves all of his objectives for the club over the next decade we may be...

I always had a bit of a soft-spot for them but it does look very bleak, says it all really though when you realise they're paying Dele Alli one hundred grand a week.

Absurd that there's no goal line technology at this level.

Looks like he just jumps for the ball like any striker would, your arms naturally go out cause err, that's how jumping works. Absurd decision.

They'll come out and try and play us, the crowd will be electric, we will win.

It's only a matter of time for them, sad as it is to admit without somehow bagging 4-5 diamonds from nowhere both us and PNE cannot sustain championship football on our own volition, but who can?, unless you're a big city club averaging 30-40k. If you replaced the Hemmings family even with...

I was thinking about the juxtaposition of their fans streaming out after going behind heavily and our fans continuing to out-sing the Arsenal supporters at 6-0, anyway after that game against them last year I'm not shedding many tears for them. We were very unfortunate to go down, only...

Love Jimmy Husband and his swashbuckling ways, you could hack at his ankles with a sabre and he'd still keep plugging away. Jordan Gabriel just radiates positivity despite all his injury issues, lot of time for him Grimmy is actually hilarious, really deadpan, could see him in Coronation...

Nah, unless we lose 10 in a row or something ridiculous he'll be here next season, i'm sure the board will consider a finish just outside of the play-offs as an acceptable, if unspectacular season. The concern is that if the season does fizzle out, as seems likely, I can't see us averaging...
