Shame we have no game tomorrow but Cov Sphinx are hosting Cov United tomorrow. Only 7 quid to get in. I went to this fixture a few years ago and it ended 4-3. Was a right laugh.

Anyway, just thought I'd put it out there, happy Christmas.

We're going to Cheltenham Town. Solihull is always good as CCFC STHs get discounted tickets but they're away tomorrow, so CTFC it is.

Following the league games and praying for injuries and suspensions in the Wycombe /Tranmere games (except Jack Grimmer, as long as he has a stinker against us)

There's a car park there but once it's full it's full. There is no street street parking.
Yep good advice to get there early and get into the car park or you will be snookered.

Lots of goodwill to all men there (ex-manager element too!)
Yeah. Could be ‘interesting’. A few Cardiff fans have expressed surprise the game’s not been brought forward to 12pm to allow less time for drinking. I’ve been advised to avoid central Cardiff, which unfortunately I walk through to get to the ground.
I’m planning on broadcasting my neutrality. Do you think I’ll be safe if I wear a cov top?

You'll get beaten up by both.

No colours, and do the loop up to Penatth Road to get home would be my advice. Takes forever mind

I’m getting a lift back so that is an option! Bloody Millwall. Last time I saw them we beat them 3-1 and they had teddy Sheringham and Tony cascarino playing for them. I think jimmy carter has a run out for them too...the winger not the former president.

I’m watching Exeter v Newport tomorrow. Come on down to Devon for a fun day out and guaranteed it will be hammering it down with rain.

Went to watch them a few weeks ago against Port Vale in the cup with my dad. Was a really nice afternoon out. Hope you have a nice time.

Yeah we've been a few times when we've not been playing. Easy to get to from Warwick.

Never been to the New Windmill.

Miss as a kid the midweek night games at the original Windmill, used to either sit on the high wall behind the goal (outside the ground) or going in through the hole in the fence.

Man City's old floodlights apparently,jumpers for goalposts etc.

Another team fucked by having their ground sold out from under them with no alternative to go to, though in their case they had no choice as AP did it.

Still a shame though.

Europe way-not sure if you know where the car dealers (BMW etc) are? In that vicinity.

If anyone invites you to go and watch Cardiff Vs Millwall in the future do not, I repeat DO NOT, take them up on the opportunity. Bloody hell. I’m never going to moan about Robins’ tactics again. I’ve only just woken up.
Enjoy the banter?

There wasn’t much going on albeit I was the opposite end of the ground to the few hundred Millwall fans that turned up. Didn’t see any Millwall fans outside the stadium.
The Cardiff fans were silenced fairly early on by the boring football. The first half was especially bad. Having said all that Jed Wallace scored an absolute screamer.

Have to admit the new ground's not a patch on Ninian Park for atmosphere and threat of violence.

Did a couple of seasons half regular in the 1990s, friend used to enjoy going into the Soul Crew's local for reasons I'll never know. Now that was a place to order a pint without opening your mouth and showing you weren't local!
