    Yeah he had to intervene. Could easily have gone over the bar or to the keeper. Can’t really say they deserve a point having offered nothing but the match deserves to finish 0-0.

    The rugby has been stopped for 30 mins because of lightning within ten miles of the stadium. Woke.

    Excited for the World Cup final in New Jersey or wherever it is being 0-0 towards the end of extra time and everyone goes off for half an hour because there’s some thunder nearby.

    Ok look at all those glory hunting United fans.

    They're only there because of Sky and because they bought the premier league and that, all up from London and over from Japan.........

    Yeah l know there was lots of low attendances around that time, was just what was sent in a WhatsApp group.

    Was still surprised at just how low certain clubs were though eg Leeds/Villa/Wolves.

    Not sure of the source of that but the site I normally use has us at 20th which is pretty decent considering we've only ever won one major trophy.

    City hold up pretty well too it has to be said for all the stick they get.

    Especially when you consider they share a city with you lot.

    Yeah think there's 3 other clubs there alongside us who've only won one major trophy - Brum, Boro and Norwich.

    Our trophy record is truly pathetic considering how much time we've spent in the top flight in the last 60 years.

    Might as well give Cardiff the L1 title now. Such a gulf in the teams these days, you just can't compete against it.

    Sir Alex Ferguson at Cardiff, probably there supporting his son. Looks reasonably well.

    After my £7.50 profit last night things are going reasonably well thus far. Swindon losing in my long odds bet but against ten men now.

    Got a goals galore which includes the Newport game which has been delayed so that could be exciting. 6/12 scored excluding that one.

    Accrington 1-0 Gillingham as the future champions get off to a disappointing start.
