    The whole thing has been a fiasco. One thing the allotments will not be is part of the "health campus". It will be housing or a car park, once they've finished with the access to the main site. The whole thing is a national disgrace, and the judgement will affect every allotment in the country - every single one is now at greater risk to development.

    Yes - absolutely at the expense of other fans. Being in a wheelchair is bad enough - ramps blocked by parked cars, parked cars on pavements , and the sheer hard work of just living. They shouold be afforded every privilege possible - they would if we lived in a decent society.

    So they've put on a potential upset rather than one of the big teams...

    Watford FC
    ‏@WatfordFC
    43s44 seconds ago
    FIXTURES 1/3: #watfordfc's Millwall @EmiratesFACup tie to be played at noon on Sun Jan 29, match to be televised by BBC Sport.

    More info here;

    https://www.watfordfc.com/club/millwall-cup-details

    Tickets £20 for ST Holders, £25 for everyone else.

    We've also requested to keep the Arsenal game on the following Tuesday (2 days rest). With Burnley on the Saturday, are we just giving up on the Arsenal game, or will Millwall be a 'second' team, so maximum rest between Arsenal and Burnley?

    Well lets prove them wrong!

    I think the last time they had us on they actually put on a great tribute to GT at half time.

    I can remember, 1986 I think due to a postponement we played arsenal twice in two days, and did the double on them 1-0 both times

    It was better than that duggie - we won 2-0 at theirs and 3-0 at ours the day after.

    Memory sometimes plays tricks on us
    maybe it was the year we got relegated we beat them twice 1-0
    I also remember a couple of arsenal supporters saying to me they would love GT as their manager providing he brought most of the team with him

    Kewell must be very good at training because the results aren't!

    You have to remember that it will take some time to build squad depth at all levels. At least another couple of years.
    We had an academy up to 18 only; then we had to stretch 3 years to U21's and now 5 years to U23's and whilst our young players are good, most of the teams we play have many adults in the team. To compete on a level playing field already we would have had to bring in nigh on 50 young players of varying ages to bridge the gap quicker.

    I doubt he´ll ever make an impact in the first team to be honest.

    Bit of a waste of $$, win some lose most with the signings! <doh>
