    Some of our fans

    I think fans are entitled to if they want.... whether they perhaps should is a very different matter. On the subject of entitlement.... i think that a lot fans assume that because they pay for a ticket/season ticket/etc entitles them to a guarantee of success...... just because they were...

    Funny that those who voiced a note of caution before the season started, that we weren't necessarily going to piss it this year..... were told we need to "believe" and "trust in Robins" Generally by the same people who are now suggesting we replace him.

    The holiday 2023 thread

    Similar to posts above, i'm off to Sicily next May (although i'm racing there so half holiday, half "business"!). By necessity i'll need to stay on the east of the island, and have booked flights into Catania (from London City....... it was cheaper to go Business Class from London City...

    Which got me thinking about some geographical things.... England is split for Regional purposes into North/Midlands/South. With Bristol & West being the top team in the Midlands at the moment (and indeed one of the top teams in the country)...... but they're not really the Midlands are they...

    Unseasonable warm weather at Aldersley Wolverhampton yesterday for the Midlands Cross Country Relay Champs. Some last minute jiggery-pokery with the teams, and i found myself running 3rd leg (of 4 legs) for our 1st team. On the opening leg our guy had a stormer and came back in 5th place...

    That isn't passion though. Shouting "c**t" all game isn't showing passion..... its being a sad-arse twat. If i was Robins and some disgusting pissed-up slob had a go at me, i'd stand my ground and have a go bck.

    Adrian Durham's Championship Ground Rating

    I have been.... and the last time i went was typical city..... fantastic day until the football started and we were 2 down in 20mins. That doesn't diminish my thoughts on the stadium itself.

    Hillsborough is my favourite current ground in the championship.

    Club night with my Godiva training group last night.... One of favourite sessions..... 2 x 2.1 mile reps around the roads outside of the Memorial Park. Starting outside the Park& Ride Car Park, a quick start down Kenilworth Rd, and down into Coat Of Arms Bridge Road.... all downhill so far...

    Running

    I was racing yesterday just over the Mid-Wales border in the first race of the Shropshire Winter Fell Champs. Due to a lot of fixture congestion this time of year, i really have to prioritise races, and can't afford to rest up too much before every race. So i'd trained properly last week, and...

    Nice one..... If you felt good, then a reasonable (but tough) target might be 1:24 which is just about 20 minute/5km pace throughout.

    Spent £10m on L1 players

    The point is, a football forum is often not the best barometer of a new signing's talent..... I'd sooner trust the judgement of Robins and his team, than the ravings of a few madmen on here.... as more often than not they get it right.

    Spent £10m on L1 players

    Many were saying Hamer "should never wear the shirt again" when he got sent off twice early in the season.

    Spent £10m on L1 players

    Gyokores was slated for quite a while when he first joined. And this time last year people were suggesting selling Wright and Simms for a huge loss just to recoup some money, as they were "shit"

    I understand it very well. But feeling the need to call some random fans "horrible wankers" 23 years later doesn't really fire up my passions about it all.

    Robins has to go…

    I think even 3pts would have been "acceptable" to most fans had it been the other way round..... losing in injury time to 3rd place Blackburn, then beating an average Sheff Weds, would've been about par for the course.

    So we wouldn't have gloated had we sent them down then? I've been on the end of rough treatment at Villa Park.... but in the main, they're just football fans like us.

    I've recently booked flights to Sicily for my next race abroad.... European Masters Mountain Champs in May, on the side of Mt Etna. Yesterday i was fortunate (or was it unfortunate) enough to have t race for Godiva in the National 6-Stage Road Relay Champs at Sutton Coldfield. Fortunate...

    Robins has to go…

    Well its not like football fans to be reactionary...... Tuesday night: "we can still make the playoffs" Saturday night: "Robins Out"

    And as pathetic as the current rules are, we didn't win fair and square, our "winning goal" was offside. (i'm not debating how shit VAR and the current rules are... i'm sure we all agree on that)
