    Ok I nicked this from another site but it looked fun so I thought I would put it on here. What is the first thought that comes to your head when you see think of the other teams in League One?

    Bradford City – Team I've seen the most at Priestfield and team I've seen us beat the most
    Brentford – Gillingham's future signings
    Bristol City – League Cup match that kickstarted our championship winning season! Also Kelvin Jack getting injured and Mark Bentley having to go in goal
    Carlisle United – Miles away
    Colchester United – Paul Lambert abandoning them for Norwich
    Coventry City – Cody Mac!
    Crawley Town – Winning the 2011 World Cup there
    Crewe Alexandra – Chris Dickson's Marco Van Basten esque goal away there
    Gillingham – Greateset football team to ever have graced the game
    Leyton Orient – Turning up to a match with only 13 players and had to play in their away strip
    MK Dons – Wimbledon fakes
    Notts County - Juventus
    Oldham Athletic – Paul Dickov
    Peterborough United – Chris Whelpdale and Charlie Lee
    Preston North End – Us selling Patrick Agyemang to them
    Port Vale – Their fans spouting they were going to win the league all season only to finish third, LOL
    Rotherham United – Wining the 2012 World Cup there and here
    Sheffield United – Paul Shaw went there after us
    Shrewsbury Town – Simeon Jackson's 89th min header
    Stevenage – Our one time feeder club
    Swindon Town – We are the Swindon Haters!
    Walsall – Home match in 2005? They had just got relegated but the atmosphere for that match was brilliant, best fans I've seen at Priestfield. And they won 1-0!
    Wolverhampton Wanderers – Matt Jarvis earning his first international cap.

    Bradford City ....some of the locals accuse us of racism (that's as interesting as it gets )
    Brentford...........coaches have to park miles away from the ground
    Bristol City.........Losing there 6-0 ( not a good day out )
    Carlisle..............Should be in the Scottish league - saves on a long trip (going to Barcelona on 8 Feb 2014 instead)
    Colchester..........At Layer Road you could almost reach through the goal nets standing in the away end.
    Coventry............I think they are the only league team to feature in a Monty Python sketch
    Crawley.............Ran out of pies long before the match began season before last
    Crewe................Huge stand that looks as if it's about to overbalance
    Gillingham..........Never heard of them - is it somewhere in Dorset or just off the A146 in Norfolk - make up your mind.
    Leyton Orient......Takes 4 hours in a car and finishing off in a train journey - only to find that you still beat half the team in getting there
    MKDons..............My satnav wants to take me to south west London
    Notts County.......Probably wished that they, and not Forest had Brian Clough
    Oldham..............Get there before they rebuild the missing stand - lovely views - usually better than the game !
    Peterborough.......Posh - I don't think so
    Preston................Great 'dirty' weekend - other dirty weekends do not feature current league 1 towns
    Port Vale.............Had sun, rain, snow & strong wind all on the same day.(neighbour never complained)
    Rotherham..........Old ground- had no hot drinks available - at the new ground Evans losing his cool- did he ever have it
    Sheffield Utd.........sis-in-law giving directions - getting lost - sis-in-law then concedes she confuses her left from her right
    Shrewsbury..........1-0 redemption following the ridicule from the fans when earlier in the season we lost 7-0
    Stevenage............Getting out of the car park takes nearly as long again as the journey
    Swindon ..............Their mascot doing a KamiKaze in among the Gills fans - Police stepped in before he was murdered
    Walsall.................fewer longer trips means I won't have to see it from the motorway so many times on my journies up north
    Wolverhampton..... Derek Dougan & Mick McCarthy - two of the biggest noses as you'll likely to see
