Once turned up for the coach outside of YEB for Walsall away. Not enough to make it viable so ended up on a quickly hired Dennis Taylor minibus, got a few miles from Walsall before plod pulled us. He wasn't impressed with 25 travelling on a 12 seater!
Sounds like a tiger travel trip to Croydon. Three coaches. One turned up and broke down in KC carpark. A replacement coach arrived one hour later, but there weren't enough seats for those waiting. One coach broke down on the M25, one went to the Crystal Palace athletics stadium, which was miles from Selhurst Park. The third coach arrived at 2.55pm. Oh the joys of Tiger Travel!!!!!!
Much as I hate them and would be hilarious to see them back down again, I also hate playing them. Their fans and the prospect of losing to them.
wrexham have just taken top spot in the national league from stockport on goal difference by beating them 3-0. both teams will finish in the top two. stockport have a game in hand. most of the top 7 (1 auto place, 6 for play-offs) have one game left, but grimsby and stockport have two. 7th placed chesterfield and 6th placed grimsby could be pipped by dagenham and redbridge, but the last game for d&r is also wrexham's last game.
Tiger travel and joy are seldom seen in the same sentence. Only used them once, Torquay away. Freezing February day and the coach turned up with a heater that blew cold air only and the driver couldn't turn it off, to complete the 'joy' we got a few miles from Torquay and a young lad barfed in the aisle! NEVER again. Although a 5-1 City win made the journey home shorter.
Still think it will probably be Burnley. Needed them to win yesterday against an average Villa side. Spurs up next for them and think TWS will beat either Brighton or Brentford
Tiger Travel trip to Watford. Last game of season. Peter Taylor's fnal game as City boss. Three coaches were booked, but only two turned up at KC. About 50 of us had to get to a site on Dairycoates to get a coach, but we had no driver. Lucky for us that one of the fans had the required driving licence so he drove the coach to Watford. We got there about 20 mins after kick off. Drew 0-0...highlight was singing 'Ashbee's gunna get you' to Ian Ashbee sat in with the fans. Happy days. Hereby ends my anecdotes of TT away days.
Franshise FC stuck the away fans up in the gods, to try and give them an advantage, fortunately it failed... please log in to view this image
Hm, not sure what I feel about this. Spurs fans signing completely unacceptable songs about unemployment levels in the Merseyside area https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/61376475 im all for fans cleaning up their acts and behaving themselves, but if we can’t sing ‘sign on’, not sure what is acceptable any more. Are we allowed to laugh at a bad miss, or a disallowed goal, don’t want to distress anyone. plus, social class isn’t even a protected characteristic, it’s actually legal to discriminate on the basis of it! seriously...
Game tonight to see who Adebayo Akinfenwa scores the winner against in what will be his last game. FC Massive v FC Massiver. Any preferences?
