...sounds more like handbags at 10 paces to me

Very strange... I am reminded of the aftermath of something called 'Super 12', where players go to after match functions, get p*ssed, go to pubs, get schickered even worse, and fight members of the public!

Well, I'm glad to see that the cops let you go, GD. I'd hate you to miss today's game.

And Cardiff fans fighting - well, there's a surprise. I was watching the Second Division play-off final yesterday at the 'City Gent' fanzine end-of-season party, and we were all rooting for QPR. Unfortunately, we're stuck with the Bluebirds bringing their neck tattoos and shoulder chips to Valley Parade next season.

Yes I was hoping for a QPR victory, but maybe for rather different reasons to you - White City is a much easier commute than South Wales should an away fixture occur next season.

Greydesk,

Are you so down on your Teams chances that you are planning next seasons division 1 away fixtures?

Not at all, I'm just doing a little forward planning. You see if it does all go wrong, I'm going to lose a number of away fixtures from my calendar next season.

Portsmouth, Brighton, Piggies and Wimbledon all out, and in exchange I would get West Ham.

What you mean that you won't go and see the Mighty Wombles of Milton Keynes? (Just doesn't have the same ring does it?)

In retrospect I might. Going to the Wimbledon away fixture was one of the season's more surreal experiences. Especially as it was only two days after we'd played Palace!

Oh, and did you know now that they've moved to Milton Keynes they've lost the rights to their mascot. The guy who owns the rights has decided that he wants nothing to do with the relocated team

I take it that you haven't gone to Cardiff today then, GD?

Couldn't get a ticket

Unlucky greydesk,

Guess it was just one of those days for your boys, obviously Wolves paid for their place with their stunning blowout last season.


Mind you even at 85 mins I still thought that Wolves could blow it.

The bottom line is they out played us in the first half. I can have no complaints about their goals, as our defence and midfield just weren't talking to one another. Aparently there were some blokes called Tonge, Curtis, Kozluk and Rankine playing today. I can't say I noticed them anywhere

Hard luck, mate.

At least you can still look down on the Piggies.

Thanks


You're right about the Piggies of course. But now that we haven't got promotion and are stuck back where we started, we won't get the opportunity of giving them one of our 'special welcomes' at BTDBL next season
