Really? Chas was saying there were people taking photographs.

Perhaps he was referring to members of the press.


There were definitely 2 guys taking pictures on their camera phones whilst wearing very bright white new looking scarves.

Although they disappeared during the 1st half so I don't think they were that impressed!!

Oh yes, the crowd for Stafford was, what, 600!!!!!


I have a feeling it was Cheltenham, but I'll be sad enough to go and check it in a few minutes and correct myself if wrong!

Like anyone even cares..!


On a 'light'-er note! (It will become apparent in a bit), the local plod have asked that the Cheltenham home game against Leeds be moved to Sunday. The reason being that on Saturday, the town are switching on the Christmas Lights (see!!) and do not have the manpower to cover this event AND the football match!

And you think a take-over by a load of keyboard warriors sounded silly!!

Yeah, as stated by Mr. M it wasn't the week after but I believe a few weeks prior. It was my first ever game *sigh*. I still remember Mark Munday hitting the bar and us getting spanked 3-0 by a team who ended up getting relegated. Oh, simpler times...

Being seven at the time, I have to say I was more of a Dandy reader.

But did he?! The cheek. I wonder where he is now. Although, despite my lack of acquaintance with the Fleet I do distinctly recall pondering whether Villa would get six, seven or eight goals, so the actual result was a pleasant surprise.

Undoubtedly there will be an increase for this match due to the novelty factor and the takeover parasites will claim it as justification for what they have done and the media will hail it as a great day.

 

Everyone knows that their enthusiasm will wane when the novelty wears off, when their "real" team is playing a big game, when they have to turn out on a cold and windy Tuesday night or when they need to go Christmas shopping.
