  1. The lads who have seen him play, will no doubt be in a good position to comment. There is one thing for sure, the step up, is quite often greater than people realise. I do recall us signing a non league striker years ago called Paul McKinnon. He was prolific at none league level and many thought he would make it, be failed miserably at Ewood. Signed for Slough in the summer of 1991 from Sutton United. Made 525 appearances for Sutton, scoring 278 goals in the process. McKinnon also played abroad in Sweden playing for Malmo and briefly in the Football League for Blackburn Rovers. Scored 36 times for Slough in his 97 apperances for the Rebels.
  2. This is complete ridiculous and needs bring to the attention of the media. Josh I think you have Alan Myers E Mail and I know he communicated with the fans, will he help, or do we have other Avenues?
  3. A Tweet has been sent out this afternoon, where apparently someone has suggested that any blind or partially sighted fans, should get their carer to provide commentary. If this is true, then another two fingers up from the club to their disabled fans.
  4. It could well be the Taj Mahal, before the end of the season, as a mark of respect to our gallant owners, with a picture of Sachin Tendulkar thrown in, for good measure.
  5. We all know there is no easy solution to getting rid. Just less over a week ago, the season kicked off and plenty were optimistic, that we would at long last, see some positive results and start to enjoy the football again. Seven years of demise, will become eight, then nine etc. No promotion this season spells disaster and the end of the club. We either all rally and make a concerted last desperate attempt to oust them, or we kiss goodbye to our club.
  6. Sorry, I obviously don't follow things, quote as closely as a fan, so thanks for the information. I genuinely do not ever remember a play off for 3 and 4th place, but given I was 10 I have obviously forgotten. I knew the bit about losing to non league as top flight. I think the Wimbledon one, was when their keeper was Dickie Guy, who saved a Peter Lorimer penalty in a later round. We all have the embarrassing ones I guess.
  7. For those suggesting we will get turned over easily, think Lincoln or Accrington Stanley. Lincoln on their own patch prevented them getting into the quarter final, for the first time in my lifetime and I am 52. They will bottle this I reckon and embarrass themselves, yet again. COYB
  8. As bad as Bradley going clubbing with a tight hamstring, skiing when injured.
  9. I don't know anyone personally, but we have a chant going round, which started last season and has carried on in pre season friendlies. Something like we've got Tony Mowbraaaaaay, so I think a few are expecting god like things of him.
  10. Lots of negative posts about Mowbray today, many having thought all summer he is the messiah. I have thought for a while now, that things have always seemed a tad better when we haven't played, for example, when we have had an international break. With the summer recess, perhaps many of us have thought, Mowbray is the bees knees and we are going to have a good season. We are only one game in and painful as that was, a week is a long time in football. Hopefully, we can get a couple of wins under out belt and hail Mowbray again, I am wishing like hell, he is the real deal.
  11. Coventry got off to a good start on Saturday, with a 3-0 win at home to Notts County. I won't be putting my house on it, but see us going out, so will have a couple of quid on Cov to win the tie at 6/5. I will be happy to lose the money, as I do want us to progress and get the first win on the board, to set us up for an important game on Saturday.
  12. If you look closely at the picture in the paper, you can see Bradley trying to block out the hidden camera, with one of his fingers. Perhaps we could have a fox in the box after all.
  13. Looks to me, like he could have been about to get the injured hamstring massaged, free of charge. Given that we are offering redundancies all over the place, any free medical attention, should be grabbed, with both hands.

    I remember it well and it was on TV too the following day, with Gerald Sinstatd.
  15. I live in Spain and hope I have this sorted. I won't know until Saturday when the Southend match hopefully appears, so we shall see. I have some very technically gifted friends, so hope they have done me proud.
  16. Yeah, but they definitely won't be relegated and they are going to bottle all the dew on the grass and sell it as holy water. Last match they got into their opponents toilets 5 times, so it can't all be bad.
  17. VPN required at around £30 for the year and away you go. www.tunnelbear.com
  18. Hope the swim wasn't too dangerous, with all those great whites over there. I bet you have found that to be V ery P leasing N ews.
  19. Hi Josh and yes I will help you if you need me to.
  20. Essentially when you use a VPN your computer will act as though you are in the country of your choice. For example, I spend most of my time in Spain and I can use a VPN to act as though I am in the UK when necessary. I can watch ITV player that way or BBC player, both of which would not work, using a Spanish ISP. As someone has already pointed out, using a VPN whilst in the UK but connecting to another Country would work, but paying by card, means you have to give the address that the card is registered to. So if you are really living in the UK and intend to pay with a UK registered card, even though you could fool the computer into think you are abroad, the fact that you have paid with a UK card, could mean you have no access. If however you have a friend you lives abroad and they pay for you, that solves the problem. You would get them to create a user name and password that you choose and away you go. The VPN I use is www.tunnelbear.com
  21. Unless you know someone who lives abroad who will pay it on your behalf.
