    must confess i didn't see anything wrong with it munky although i wasn't looking for a foul.

    wouldn't be surprised, baring in mind mr swarbrick's appalling performance but frankly the fact we couldn't stop a goal being scored from our own set piece was not just down to a foul - we had two or three chances to deal with the counter. it was pretty criminal defending all round - chelsea didn't really have to work for the goal

    Is it time to move the away fans to the upper river end??? if they ain't near the pitch they cant pressurise the officials, one of the things the big clubs do is stick the away support far away from the pitch as possible

    I'm pretty sure this was trialled many years ago, putting away fans in the upper Barclay.
    Suffice it to say, home fans in the lower tier needed umbrellas <yikes>

    Did that happen once or am I dreaming it, Barclay-ites?

    It happened! The so called 'clever people' running the club were the ONLY people to not foresee exactly what did happen <doh>

    I think one of the games was against Coventry City, who were not seen as a 'problem' set of fans. The trial did not last long surprisingly enough <laugh>

    effin stupidity of the highest order <ok>
