Hev

After the event (if we win) - there is nothing like having been there and seen us do it (especially at the Sty earlier this season) but during this week with all the build up and angst that we might lose, I think, on the whole, I'd rather do without this Derby game - yes, I'd much rather prefer it if they were at least one (and preferably several) divisions down from us - even allowing for the feeling if we do win!

Brosnan for me (but I can't find where to post my vote) - purely because he was sooo good looking in those films - particularly the one where he had x-ray spex on - made me go all hot !

Regarding bottle tops - couldn't agree more, the number of times either mine has got knocked over and run all over my bag which I put under the seat. Also, not all grounds I've been to remove the tops either.

Well I suppose tighter Y Fronts would be OK - rather than the old type.

Speaking as a laydee - I think tight pants (or fitted boxers) but absolutely NOT Y fronts are so much more sexy than loose boxers - loose boxers always me of the old comedy shows where mens' trousers would fall down and they would always be wearing loose fitted spotted or striped boxer shorts - sorry but I don't see anything sexy in loose fitted boxers - maybe that's just me!

General Krulak here:

1. Away fans, When we start renovation of stadium, we will have a look at "splitting" idea.

2. Parade at end of season. We will focus on that when we get closer to end...and when we have a better idea of where we will be.

3. We are working the Irish market. Lots of things to come. Hang in there.

4. Attendence...this issue has been raised with Richard Fitzgerald and Phil Mepham...they will sort it.

What is the "splitting" idea - sorry if I'm being stupid but I can't remember what it is - but hopefully it doesn't involve moving us out of Witton Upper P3

Stilll prefer the ones "Who's that coming out of defence, it's Martin Laursen, it's Martin Laursen"

and

"Blond Mane, Jumping Dane, Martin Laursen"

they are original - not copies of anyone else's song. Still I guess it's nice he has a chant anyway - he deserves one.

General, thanks so much for confirming that there is no foundation to the worrying rumour of away fans being moved next season. Our steward today said he had heard this too and so your confirmation is very welcome. Thanks so much

Hi General, me again! I gather from another forum that you have said that there is no truth in the rumour of away fans being moved to DE Upper. Could I trouble you just to confirm this on here? This would make me so happy. Thanks General. :notworthy:

Hi General, Thanks for your reply that you will look into the rumour about away fans moving to Doug Ellis Upper (hopefully you will also have ready the thread about this). I still hope it's not true and look forward to hearing from you when you have found out more information. Hev :cry:

If the media centre is being moved though Hev thats going to open up a load of seats right in the middle tier of the Trinity with great views so im sure they'll be offered to season ticket holders first.

General, if it is true, can I pencil in myself and my friends (five/six) in total for first refusal of the seats in the (former) "media area"? :winkold:

Still sad if I have to move from my beloved seat in P3 DD though :cry:

Hi General, Happy New Year to you and your family.

I don't usually post on this thread but have noticed a thread stating that the Away Fans are to be moved to Doug Ellis Upper Stand next season. Can you clarify this at all as I (and I know of many others) would be most upset to lose our seats to away fans. We are ST holders in DE Upper and have a fantastic view of the pitch and the Holte (We are in Block P3) What concerns me most is (A) why should away fans be given seats with such great views of the game (if true) ( if true, I guess we will have to relocate and may not be able to sit together with our friends who we have made over the years having season ticket seats. This would be most distressing for me and (as I say) no doubt lots of other people who love it in our stand. - Maybe it is just to be the other end of the Stand near where the away fans now are? Also, I know there are some concerns from fans in the Lower Stand at having away fans above them - plus the Away fans would be right by the Holte. I guess we would have to relocate to the Trinity Stand as we like the side on view but surely all the best seats have already gone to ST Holders in that stand? Could you reassure me in any way General . Yours a very sad and worried Hev :cry:

PS Thanks for all the great work Randy and you and everyone has done though.

I like Wigan - I like the way the away fans can go into the Marquee Club which is sort of like our Holte Suite but JUST for away fans! Nice friendly people too.

Trouble is, just imagine if it was an error and got corrected so we played Middlesboro - and then they were to beat us!! How awful - might as well put up with it this year maybe and then , maybe, the FA can "ensure" we aren't drawn against Man U again in the near future?

Lets hope O'Neill is completely wrong!

Agreed 100% - I don't like this news at all. :cry: :evil:

Bad news that is - he is actually quite good!

I like some of them - and I don't think I'm a moron or braindead - although others might agree to differ I guess. I figure that I have to use my brain all day at work so I like to unwind when I get home by watching soaps and supposedly crap tv.

Wasn't McLeish pictures on SSN yesterday flying out to South Africa for the World Cup Draw?

What's going on with Bruce and Wigan anyway - any more news?

If Harry gets it he'll play fat Frank every week, as he's mates with Frank Senior!

Isn't Harry Frank Lampard's Uncle?

Jose for me

THIS IS A STORY ABOUT A COUPLE WHO HAD

BEEN HAPPILY MARRIED FOR YEARS.

THE ONLY FRICTION IN THEIR MARRIAGE WAS

THE HUSBAND'S HABIT OF FARTING

LOUDLY EVERY MORNING WHEN HE AWOKE. THE NOISE

WOULD WAKE HIS WIFE AND

THE SMELL WOULD MAKE HER EYES WATER AND MAKE HER GASP

FOR AIR.

EVERY MORNING SHE WOULD PLEAD WITH HIM TO STOP RIPPING THEM OFF

BECAUSE

IT WAS MAKING HER SICK. HE TOLD HER HE COULDN' T.STOP IT AND THAT IT

WAS

PERFECTLY NATURAL. SHE TOLD HIM TO SEE A DOCTOR, SHE WAS CONCERNED

THAT

ONE DAY HE WOULD BLOW HIS GUTS OUT.

THE YEARS WENT BY AND HE

CONTINUED TO RIP THEM OUT. THEN ONE

THANKSGIVING MORNING AS SHE WAS PREPARING

THE TURKEY FOR DINNER AND HE

WAS UPSTAIRS SOUND ASLEEP, SHE LOOKED AT THE

INNARDS AND NECK, GIZZARD,

LIVER AND ALL THE SPARE PARTS AND A MALICIOUS

THOUGHT CAME TO HER.

SHE TOOK THE BOWL AND WENT UPSTAIRS WHERE HER

HUSBAND WAS SOUND ASLEEP

AND, GENTLY PULLING THE BED COVERS BACK, SHE

PULLED BACK THE ELASTIC

WAISTBAND OF HIS UNERPANTS AND EMPTIED THE BOWL OF

TURKEY GUTS INTO HIS

SHORTS.

SOME TIME LATER SHE HEARD HER HUSBAND

WAKEN WITH HIS USUAL TRUMPETING

WHICH WAS FOLLOWED BY A BLOOD CURDLING SCREAM

AND THE SOUND OF FRANTIC

FOOTSTEPS AS HE RAN INTO THE BATH ROOM. THE WIFE

COULD HARDLY CONTROL

HERSELF AS SHE ROLLED ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING, TEARS IN

HER EYES! AFTER

YEARS OF TOTURE SHE RECKONED SHE HAD GOT HIM BACK

PRETTY GOOD..

ABOUT TWENTY MINUTES LATER, HER HUSBAND CAME DOWSTAIRS IN

HIS

BLOODSTAINED UNDERPANTS WITH A LOOK OF HORROR ON HIS FACE. SHE BIT

HER

LIP AS SHE ASKED HIM WHAT WAS THE MATTER.

HE SAID, "HONEY YOU WERE

RIGHT." "ALL THESE YEARS YOU HAVE WARNED ME AND

I DIDN'T LISTEN TO

YOU".

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN?" ASKED HIS WIFE.

"WELL, YOU ALWAYS TOLD

ME THAT ONE DAY I WOULD END UP FARTING MY GUTS

OUT, AND TODAY IT FINALLY

HAPPENED."

BUT BY THE GRACE OF GOD, SOME VASELINE AND TWO FINGERS,

I THINK I GOT

MOST OF THEM BACK

IN."

Thanks General for passing on my gripe about the coaches to appropriate person - much appreciated.

Hi General. Sorry to hear about your bad back - hope it gets better soon. Anyway, not sure if this may have been mentioned before but it is an ongoing "bit of a gripe"of mine and quite a few others. When travelling to away games with the official coaches, all travellers start from Villa Park. How is it then that on the way back, we ALWAYS end up having to go past Villa Park, with a coach full of people into the City Centre to drop at most 6 passengers off in the City - this is the same for most coaches I think. How is it that they can start from VP but not get back from there. Now, don't get me wrong General, I have no objection really to taking them back into the City Centre but why can't we drop the majority back at VP first and then take the people into the City ? Or maybe, as someone else said today, take all the coaches back to VP and have one of them go back into the City Centre - then people could get off the coaches at VP and continue their onward journey home and those who need to get into the City could all jump on to the one coach and be taken into the City. I know it's just minor niggle really but when you've had a long journey back, it's just so irritating that the majority have to go into Town to drop off a few and then back to VP.

Maybe the extra coach back into the City after dropping off at VP could be an idea?

Just found out that Colin McRae was a Sheffield United fan.

Apparently his last words were: "Come on you **** BLADES!!!"

Yeah and his wife has withdrawn all their savings from Northern Rock and put it into Scottish Widows
