    No I didnt at all. I never said for one minute we didnt play Wrexham in the Auto Windscreen Shield. I said we didnt play Wrexham in the Auto windscreen Shield with just 500 fans attending. If you did mean the Wrexham game with 2,331 attending, then why did you choose that one to gauge whether a fan is real or not instead of the many games we had with much lower attendances?

    Look, why cant you just say you meant Chester and we can stop this silly back and forth?

    That's our problem, right there; what the **** is a 'key game'? Every game should be key.

    Yes I got the attendances mixed up. I thought the Wrexham game had 500 odd in attendance, so in my original post I should have said Chester.

    Well done for being part of that ~500 of course, and if there was a prize for pedantry and obscure City knowledge, you would have just won it :emoticon-0105-wink::emoticon-0148-yes:

    That's all you needed to say that you meant Chester. Done.

    And again, it's not pedantry. why does this board immediately accuse anyone of pedantry when they correct something that is wrong? It's not pedantry, it's being correct.

    How is it arguing the toss about nothing? He named the Wrexham game as having 500 people in attendance when he clearly meant Chester. If someone said "Oh we were unlucky in our first every FA Cup final match vs Swindon" would nobody bat an eyelid and just let it go?

    Sorry. As an aside I was just thinking today about how much we could do with our record scorer John Moore in the side these days. Oh to find a modern day version of him.

    Err, I think the Auto Windscreen Trophy was a competitive match. It certainly wasn't a friendly.

    The same knob who doesn't understand why the visitor dressing room is deliberately inferior to the home team's. It's basic, very basic football which is beyond the ken of the arseholes who run our club.
