well well well

why oh why

does wembley insist on pelting out music at full blast at the final whistle..the one time that the winning side are guaranteed to make a good noise( although we did all day long!)

As least we didnt have to listen to &quot we are the champions....&quot

Going up by the play-offs...

1. Worth a lot more £££ to the club 2. Double/Triple the fun ( three more games..) 3. A trip to Wembley 4. A Bigger Cup. Given the pain that the play-off v Exeter caused, and I know its easy to say after the event, but all the hand-wringing and &quotwe're doomed..&quot comments and throughts...

Re: It wasn't a dream then

Losing 6-0 away to Liverpool in the 1st division is one thing, conceding 7 in a div 2 game twice, when the club is sevewrely under-resourced is one thing, losing 5-0 in a non-league match when our club has by a long distance, the most resources at its disposal is a different matter entirely.
