Now Mr Hagrid, did i say I wasn't going to support Town, no only I'm not putting my hard earned cash into the club in one go. No, I'll go when I want home or away if I want. Now Mr Hagrid, don't make assumptions.
I am expressing my opinion. Isn't that what a forum is for.

we got what we deserved that day beaten by the poorest team ever to be in a playoff final.


Nothing like ridiculous exaggerations!

I agree we didn't turn up at that match! However it's hardly as if that's the only time in history that a team has played poorly in a final!

Didn't enjoy it at the time but I've had many a chuckle ever since about when he kept the players in the centre circle with Graham Rodger and a flip chart on a blustery day at Lincoln.
A classic, up there with the likes of 'did I not like that' and 'excuse me linesman do you realise our colleague has just got me the sack!'
Comedy genius.

Plenty of teams play poorly in finals, but it's the manner with what happened which grates on everyone.

I can take being beaten by a better team I.e. MK Dons final, I  can take it if we get robbed by a bad decision I.e. Bristol Rovers, I can take it if we don't really give a excrement I.e. Halifax, but that game....

I'd prefer to remember the 48 games that got us there then bear grudges over the 49th. We've had equally bad play off games since.

Which ones were equally as bad, only Newport were poor performances I  thought Hurst didn't get the rub of the green in the other two years.

Braintree at home was pretty dire, however, there was a second leg to remedy matters, no second chance in a final!!!

Hurst failed in plenty of playoffs yet most were happy for him to keep his job season on season.

Slade while many and me to a degree included aren't ecstatic about his imminent appointment he did a good job at town and quite a few other clubs but in the other hand done crap at others so it's a risky appointment for me and one which will either be the end of John fenty at town or a masterstroke.

Time will tell.
