Looking pretty safe for you - congratulations and hope to join you at Wembley.


Decent allocation for final - are you not part of any of the various membership schemes. Or you could try the "spare a ticket for a veteran of '75" line.

Last Season ticket was 2006 (first kid arrived 2005 :)) and never bothered with membership etc as I often get a 'lent' ST. I'm normally ok for this but got a feeling the first trip to Wembley since 81 plus my mates kids all getting old enough etc will count against me - not sure I'll throw money at it either.


Think you'll over turn Blackpool

Poor Hamlet,fall at the final hurdle again.


Fingers crossed for Stevenage this week, well done for getting into the play offs especially having lost our manager to a rival, hope he's gutted from Ilford!! It will have been a fluid rise of meteoric proportions if we gain promotion.


And well done the Hammers, cruised to the play off finals.

Why was the play-off final played at Bognor's ground?

Was it agreed pre-season that would be the venue for the play-off, or was it on the toss of a coin?..seemed a bit unfair that one team had home advantage for such an important match.

I went on Monday, very impressive job done and we have the team that we wanted, Blackpool. In typical downbeat Hammer tradition it just presents an even bigger banana skin for us. That's what I'm telling myself anyway!


Anyone going?

Having hammered the 'Pool twice in the league complacency is our biggest worry - just hope SA can get players on their game*






*(and then - when we get promoted - retire gracefully with much thanks and a nice clock so we can get in a manager with some verve).

I think so...it depends on one of my mates' son's decision about a prty or somethink :-S Was there last time we were there for Tonka's penalty...never thought it would be this long!

Thanks. Disappointed we didn't make it to a 63rd game. Have consoled myself with a large glass of rum. Been one hell of a season all in all, and probably the most enjoyable one for many Blues fans. Last year's accounts out next week - not pretty but "nowhere near bankruptcy". Hope we can keep Chris Hughton so that he can continue the good work.

Vicious rumour, but given the current circumstances at St Andrews (late accounts and all that) and that he is only on a one year rolling contract, speculation is inevitable. If he leaves, so be it; he will leave with the goodwill and blessings of all (sane) Blues fans for the season he has given us (as opposed to the guy who f*cked off last year). Interesting few weeks ahead.

    • There have been at least two or three threads on the topic in the last couple of years. I'm afraid they'll all confirm that you assumed wrongly.  I remember looking into it myself and finding nothing to assist anyone who made the same assumption. While recently having a look through the Townley Road appeals decided in 2023, I came across this determination that also clearly spells it out. 31/3/23 Reasons     Mr X appeals against two Penalty Charge Notices. He argues that they have only been issued in order to make money for the council. Mr X states that the restrictions were introduced to make it safe for school students in the morning and afternoon and that as both 26th December 2022 and 2nd January 2023 were public holidays there was no purpose in enforcing the restriction. The appellant states that he was driving to collect an elderly relative. Townley Road is a route that is for buses, cycles and taxis only Monday to Friday 8-9am and 3-4.30pm. The restriction is in operation every Monday to Friday whether or not schools are on holiday or if it is a bank or public holiday. There was no indication on the sign that the prohibition was not being enforced on either Monday 26th December or Monday 2nd January. I have seen the CCTV footage in relation to each contravention. I have also  seen photographs of the signs and camera car footage that show the signs  and warning signs. I find that the signs are clear and that there is sufficient  warning of the restriction to enable a driver to take an alternative route. I find that each contravention occurred. I refuse both appeals.
    • I suggest you write to the estate agent asking specific questions and request a written response. Otherwise they will tell you anything to get a sale.
    • Hello, I walked past this a few minutes ago on the corner of Shawbury Road X Lordship Lane. Had a look, put it back but then saw the cut security chain as well 20 meter down the road and thought someone definitely is missing at least some handlebars. If they are still there when I come back I can take them in as I live on the next street, please DM me to arrange pickup if they belong to you.   --- UPDATE: 20:02 PM, it's still there.   I've decided not to touch it again or take it with me as it's oily and the wife will not appreciate it.
