    The football was crap but the days out were better fun.

    Not disputing the calibre of the fans who used to come from out of town on the bus and it's just a shame the demand for one dropped off. A bus still picks up in the East Riding villages and returns on matchdays. I suppose that service too would be pulled if the demand waned and it no longer paid for itself.
    Also a little known fact about the KC. There is a free shuttle service bus that parks up just inside the gates to the KC from Anlaby Road which takes those who find it difficult in walking as close to the perimeter of the stadium as they can. It returns after the game. Several disabled fans park up near where the bus parks up. I know because I drove it for a while.

    A nice reminder just how good the 'good old days' were.

    And to think that there were people out on that pitch who were actually making a living.



    It's a funny old game, innit?

    It didn't last long, first of all you miss out on the pre match beer and I had to leave before the final whistle to get the bus ready. But it is a little known service which some of the regulars totally relied on, but not for me. Last I heard the bus was being driven by a Hull Red. He doesn't mind missing seeing 'his' team play.

    In my case ureka peece I would have to also get a taxi from station to the kcom and from k com and back to the train station

    Worked out £60+ a home game

    If health had been a touch better I may have considered it at times

    Iv done it many times when younger even on the East Yorkshire bus that took hours

    Most of the folk on the bus from Filey were older and less able then me

    A number of the grandads drifted away with the price increase and also stopped taking a grandson or 2 with the increased ticket prices

    For me going to Scarborough was a simple 10 min drive to the ground and 10 mins back and £12 at the turnstiles

    I did not think I would enjoy going as much as I did but the standing were you want...the noise...the atmosphere .. the fans all United together got me hooked much to my suprise . It's like the old days at BP with home and away fans standing next to each other

    If the coach still ran and the prices hadn't increased everyone who use to go to city still would go and I would never have dreamed of going to watch Scarborough play

    I now own 1 share in the club
    No one can own more then one share even the chairman.

    Everything gets voted on by the fans

    At the next meeting I may try to change the name from Scarborough Athletic to Scarborough deckchairs and the club badge to a stick of rock...as for kids under 11 being let in for free that's bloody stupid

    We lost ....our 4th defeat in a row

    We had 15 shots.
    Lancaster had 1 shot.

    Same old story we just can't score

    To much passing about

    We play good football...but by the time the ball is in the penalty area so are 8 or 9 defenders and most shots just get blocked by a sea of legs including our own players getting in the way

    Scarborough need to go back to playing hoof ball like most teams do in this league

    This style off footy doesn't work

    Coulson and walshaw our usual front 2 were leading goalscorers last season and the season before

    But do no good with our managers style of pretty football .

    Still I had a good day as usual.

    1,057 at the game

    About 60 away fans who where very vocal and it nearly kicked of until loads of cops turned up

    Witton Albion away on the 23 Nov

    Whitby Town at home sat 30th of Nov

    We all hate Whitby

    Grrrr

    That's 6 games in a row we have lost ...we got beat 5-1 against dunston last Tuesday in the league cup ....Dunston play in the league below us and are near the bottom .

    Same old story we can't bloody score and it's been the same all season

    John Deacey has got Scarborough playing pass pass pass side ways pass backwards football and is sticking with it

    We finally get near their goal and everyone is in the box and all shots are deflected away

    Deacey out is the most popular chant .

    Long ball works best in this league.
    A tall centre half and a tall target man

    Tuesday 26th we play a village team at home in the north riding cup

    Scarborough v Staithes if we lose the **** will hit the fan

    Then Saturday we play hated our arch rivals

    Scarborough v Whitby Town

    I will be at both games win draw or lose

    A few more defeats and John Deacey must lose his job.

    Imo

    Still it's not the result that matters the most to me , getting to home games is a huge victory what ever the score
