Is it seriously only available at the counter and via the phone? Why can't it be done online. Stuck in work all day and can't ring and certainly can't go to the office as live over an hour away. Not that affects me, but I do think there are flaws in the system for this. There should have been a met...

Coventry are 9 points behind with 2 games in hand. Win them and it's 3 behind with 2 games left.

I wouldn't call it nothing to play for.

My mistake. Hadn’t realised they had 2 in hand

Even better then

"Sammie" looks like he's kept them up single handedly. The unexpected win at Leeds probably does it, unfortunately, although they're not safe yet. We'll just have to do 'em again next season. ;) Two games left are against Coventry & Leicester Cov have nothing to play for, but hopefully not deflated...

It's a big problem for local sport in Britain. .Councils are reluctant to give out long leases any more as they see sporting facilities as potential housing sites with money making options. The clubs can't get decent sized grants without long leases as there's no guarantee the club will still play ...

That's a goal if the rule is that 'over the line' means (a) 'where the fabric of the ball makes contact with the ground and is not touching the line' but not a goal if the rule says that (b)'any part of the sphere is overhanging the line at a 90 degree angle. It looks to me as if (b) is the case in...

pretty sure everyone in the away end jumped around and celebrated when the goals went in, brilliant that Kompany did it after the game - it's going to be vital that there is a connection there going forward especially when the going is tough.

I went back to the pub and sat with a few blokes who have granddaughters that play, they don’t watch and simply can’t accept it, dig after dig and sly comments. It’s sad but funny at the same time.

Does that mean 4th placed Altrincham got the bye?

Does anybody know how much the match day mascot packages cost? I've got a 6 year old claret who is now fully obsessed with the club and want the opportunity for him to meet his new heroes. If the mascot idea doesn't work out then is there opportunities at Gawthorpe to see the players on the way in?...

Are you sure it wasn't Amdouni you tripped over?

He did well when he came on

Actually tracked back and broke up their attack in our area at on point

How long have they worn Red for
I thought they played in white.
Bear in mind I haven’t watched much football recently.

Not long really

Only since 2009

Glad you’re ok Tony

My dad nearly went flying walking around the barriers getting to the turnstiles

On on side they were “flat” but as you went around the end one, the base stuck quite a way out and he tripped over it. Luckily I was alongside him and managed to hold him up

wilks_bfc

If you hadn’t had said before the match, I’d have thought he was going to sort all the Sheff fans in the top tier who were “offering us out” as they were leaving after the 3rd & 4th goals

wilks_bfc

The 2 changes that should have been made are semifinals away from Wembley and the final being after the season finishes

But again the, the changes made are to favour the “big clubs”.

A “small” club holding out for a replay is one of the good things about the FA Cup

I see Forest fans are very unhappy about their season ticket prices for next season and aslo complaining that the Fan Advisory Board were less consulted and more informed about the increases.

The question mark on my post was a wink emoji. Not sure why system doesn’t show it. Meant to portray that it was not meant as serious comment but tongue in cheek.

Rumour seems to have been first mentioned on TeamTalk so I wouldn’t read too much into it (going to Stoke that is, I don’t doubt he’ll be leaving)

Would the PFA fund the “after costs” though?

This is what I’m reading that he is wanting to raise funds for, not the actual op.

Sounds harsh but there are other ways for him to make money. Delivery driver etc.

How do you expect him to drive a delivery van whilst recovering from an ACL op?

wilks_bfc

Know it would never have happened, but can’t help looking back to the “links” we had to him at the start of the season and thinking “what if”

wilks_bfc

Just reading that has highlight how this season has been
Even if both teams had played without keepers the score would have been 0-0

I can’t wait for this season to be over tbh.
I know we were spoiled last season, but to go from that to this has been so disappointing.

You should look for an extension the lead the same way farmers look for a plough:

Not sure what you mean Mr Wilks, try asking Mrs Wilks, they are usually better at this kind of thing.

If you look at an extension lead the correct way around, the lead for it always comes out to the right, never seen one coming from the left.

wilks_bfc

Something I’ve noticed whilst looking for an extension lead

Why do they all have the cord coming out of the unit from the right?

When the socket it is being plugged into is located to the left it looks untied when the lead is having to be “doubled back”

Just the three dates then.

I love this board.

3 dates but to two different questions

OP asked when seat swaps started - somebody answers 22nd another answered 25th (I don’t know which, if any is correct)

Somebody else asked when when had until to renew.
Reply of the 19th, which is correct
