To improve our prospects (without sacking the manager/the non chairman going), what would it be?

For me, would be a fully fit Asante just to see if he's as good as Bignot made him out to be.

Me to have won that jackpot on Saturday. My username would now be Getyourfactsevenrighter and I'd be inviting random posters round for tea and biscuits and to admire the naked lady on the wall.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Would you have a pre-season BBQ?

Quantam Leap indeed.

My one wish is to see us score a goal with a sweeping move, ending in a player crashing a header past the keeper from the penalty spot. Forwards used to get above defenders and do that sort of thing. Doesn't seem to happen anymore.

I would but I'd insist the manager sign a short, tubby sorry, stocky midfielder first.

I'd just want our pride back, I'm realistic, I don't expect us to play in the second tier any more. League one is reasonable, we're miles from that. It's been a long sixteen years, people under 30 seem to think this drivel is normal.

I think it has been around so long that it actually can be considered normal now

I'd have Bobby Cumming sat in the main stand, staring at opposition defenders until they spontaneously self-combusted or melted into a puddle of their own urine. 😄

To travel back in time to 1939 and stop Hitler invading Poland!

We were becoming an established top flight team then.

For every Town fan who goes to a game to get behind every player and the manager for the full 90 minutes.  (And for the Fishy to have a few more fun footy threads and fewer 'where did it all go wrong').

Easily sorted.



Get rid of the dog  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

It would be to put right the burning injustice brought up by one determined lady at a fans' forum the other year, and finally serve fish and chips at BP.
