Not a lot going on is there

I would say we are anything but Billy big bollocks.

Think a lot of the 4-0 thrashing comments are a combination of wishful thinking and just as a bit of fun.

Don't think we have been Billy big bollocks for many a year.

 

[Joy Division]

Yeah I don't get why so many opposition fans seem to think we have a big time attitude. Nothing wrong with being confident after two wins but we've not been top flight for 16 years now, we've gotten used to where we are. I think some fans look at the size of the club, where we've come from and just assume that our attitude will be like that.

Indeed.

More of our opponents think we are a big club than our fans.

I think they have us confused with Aston Villa

Not sure why one poster is really chuffed with the fact that they're taking 5 coach loads to Nuneaton Boro. And another thinks he should post it on here to see what reaction he gets!!!

Why the fuck would you park that many fans, that far away? How the fuck are you u expecting to get 250 fans the 12odd miles from A to B? That's a hell of a lot of taxis!! Or are you expecting to walk it?

Thick Welsh fuckers!

I didn't get the Nuneaton comment either, why would they all go there and why would city fans be arsed?

 

[Covstu]

Strange comments, I don't know anyone who is thinking this will be a cakewalk. I think we are perceived as a big club due to the stadium (no matter how empty) and obviously the support we took to Wembley. I think most of us are waiting for the inevitable implosion that comes with being a ccfc fan!!

must admit I didn't get this one either, so fucking what?!

Are we supposed to be in awe that they can manage to muster up enough fans to fill 5 coaches?? Or pissed off that they're spending money on beer at Nuneaton and not at the Ricoh??

Is it some veiled attempt at a joke about a possible Nuneaton groundshare?

Maybe, but it went right over my head if that was the case!!

Nuneaton groundshare? I must have been away on holiday longer than I thought as that news has passed me by. Maybe they have beef with Nuneaton and want to pass by on the way to show off their coaches.

I wonder if this is one

wonder if they mean northampton but spelt it wrong ?

 

[Mr Panda]

I'm still totally confused by the statement, this would make a little more sense I guess.

 

[Nick]

Apparently going to the Nuneaton ground so they don't get hassle and herded around like they would if they went to Coventry town centre.

I wonder if they are going to stand on the wasteland by the ground or in the taxi car park and drink some cans?

 

[Joy Division]

I always thought the most annoying kind of fan was the armchair top 4 glory supporting Sky sports type. I'd now relegate them just below the fans of smaller bottom tier teams who have that snobby sense of self righteousness about them because they are not 'big'. Almost akin to arrogant rugby tossers.

 

[chiefdave]

That tickets thread made me laugh. They should get ticketmaster on board, would sort all those problems out

Do away fans get hassle in the town centre? Never really heard of much hassle apart from when Millwall turn up. Where do away fans drink by the Ricoh anyway?

 

[malkitccfc]

Every single week we get accused of giving it the big'un because we fancy picking up 3 points. We get compared to Portsmouth every week too.
Why haven't Newport played a home game yet?

 

[skyblueinBaku]

Why haven't Newport played a home game yet?

I think that they are having a new pitch laid.

Yeah that's what I thought as well, but I don't think that would wind anyone up on the forum.

it's like those budget airlines where you book a flight somewhere then fly into an airport that's fuckin' 50 miles away - don't really understand the logic behind this.

They want us to have a Billy big bollocks attitude so that if they beat us they can have a Billy big bollocks attitude about beating us, and by association assume they are going to win the league.

 

[Johnnythespider]

If they're going to Nuneaton somebody should inform them not to forget their white socks

 

[hill83]

Although ironically it's actually caused a huge reaction.

 

[Liquid Gold]

So they are going to nuneaton for almost no reason. I don't get it.

Oh my god it was their plan all along!!

 

[mrtrench]

It's in code.

 

[mark82]

The reaction being confusion.
