Everyone on the hill for Saturday (4 Viewers)

[ajsccfc]

Ours is an abomination in all fairness.

It's definitely not on my wishlist, that one. The royal blue should be navy at least.

The more different shirts the better. There will be lots of noisy things to give out to make a racket and I've just had a call from a couple of posters on here who are at this very moment in time reliving their childhood in a fireworks shop. Buy enough fireworks to invade North Korea by all accounts.
Also will be collecting for Alzheimer's and there will be t shirts for sale.
Should be a fun afternoon if nothing else.

Fair play to you.
We will make sure its fun.
Let's show respect for Jimmy Hill and also to those who wish to go inside the stadium.

 

[dadgad]

The "jimmy Hill" point is good as well as a poignant reminder of a time when our fanbase was united.

 

[mark82]

Made me chuckle. Glad I will be watching it in the warm at work. Imagine it will put a lot off going.

 

[Steve.B50]

Better get umbrella ready.

 

[torchomatic]

Mark, what's the weather going to be like at the Ricoh, 7pm Sunday evening?

The weather is the last of your worries.

 

[pusbccfc]

Bit of rain won't put me or anyone I'm going with, off.

 

[mds]

Surely the hill has to be Joys Division

 

[Grendel]

The weather is the last of your worries.

Do you get a free view of the pitch there?

Unless they're giving out gold stars and Super Fan t-shirts I'm not interested.

Oh are you going to come along to our Ricoh protest then? Doesn't matter about a bit of rain used to stand in it all the time on the old cop sat in it as well when they put the seats in.

[torchomatic]

Yes, I stood in the east end more than I sat in the west. I remember a particularly wet day against Chelsea. It might have been when the Grand National was cancelled because of the IRA. Or it may not.

[sky blue zam]

im planning on staying warm and dry while watching the match.




coat scarf and brolly at the ready, lol

 

[letsallsingtogether]

That will make 3 what about grendel? The worst one was a systems data cup match against Wimbledon in midweek never stopped lashing it down and as it was going to go into extra time they scored even the city fans cheered the match was as bad as the weather.

As I mentioned on another thread, Sheff Utd fans are on their forum praying tomorrow is called off due to rain. Please, no !

 

[Spionkop]

Remember that Chelsea game well oddly. 1968? Ball got stuck in a puddle of water and from it they scored and won 1-0. Chopper Harris & all.
Wow, football for a brief interlude.

 

[covfaninscotland]

does anyone know how many are actually going to be on the hill today? numbers need to be big as the game is on tv, great way to show our resentment at playing at sixfields and get the message shown on tv

So showing resentment is watching the game outside Sixfields. Fair enough.

 

[covfaninscotland]

the point i was trying to make was to reiterate to those not already in the know that city fans arent happy about playing at sixfields. whether it be on a hill, in the car park or a pub down the road. sky viewers will see that and begin to understand

 

[Steve.B50]

Not great weather but I will still be on the hill later.

Good luck with this. Apparently it's a difficult concept to grasp.

If a bit of rain puts us off then apathy really has taken over.

 

[simple_simon]

My hair is going to look terrible by 4.15. lol

In a strange way I am looking forward to being on the hill today, probably my last visit but am sure it will be a laugh.

 

[TurkeyTrot]

Got my hat and brolly and hoping to get a gazebo up! But it will be a laugh. Also collecting for Alzheimer's, selling t shirts and advertising the new download due out in November "sent from Coventry too." 25 top tunes from 25 artists from the Coventry and Warwickshire area.

 

[Covstu]

I was out on my bike this morning and was soaked through!! Wrap up boys and most importantly have fun!

 

[skybluelee]

BBC site says no rain in northampton from 3pm ish.

 

[torchomatic]

How many are there today? Is there more than usual. Didn't look many just before KO but that could have been a shot from earlier. Haven't heard any fireworks yet either.

 

[pusbccfc]

Let down by many not turning up. Similar numbers as usual.

Overall im suprised

I'm not surprised. Time to call it a day I reckon.

 

[torchomatic]

How many there then? You must be disappointed as this was the one where everyone said they were going to make a show for the cameras. BTW, I'm not taking the piss. And I mean you must be disappointed. As Hill said, seems a little pointless really.

[Nick]

Only thing I saw was one of the goals it showed people jumping on the hill..

Granted the pub didn't show the build up.

Didn't see any fire works

 

[SydneySkyBlue]

Not disappointed at all. As someone else on here said, you do what you feel is right for you.

We had a good laugh and I'm glad I went. Well done everyone on the hill today - gold star

Quite right.
Thanks for those who went- you do not deserve the derision that some on here pass your way.

 

[torchomatic]

Honestly? I thought this was the "big one" Where were the fireworks?
