Just looked at the highlights, their defence was woeful, Cooper says he thought they did well restricting them, could have been 5-1 if Swindons Norris could hit a barn door

Quoted from grimps
I'd like to see a couple of tin pots go down this year , lets have some decent clubs back in this league that might bring a few to our place



An earlier post mentioned the "arrogance of their chairman" but surely this post is just as arrogant. It's not long since we were non-league among the " tin pots " and a bad season could put us back their as well. The expression " schadenfreude " springs to mind with regards to this attitude.

Surely every club in the FA pyramid has a right to play at whatever level they can reach. There was a time when teams like Wigan were " tin pot".

Ah , so now the definition of " tin pot " is a club that has sold a potentially decent player. We've sold many over the years, including Omar, so we must be " tin pot " too!

Yes we are and have been for years, look at the crowd, ground, players and staff and compare to when we were  a head held high team

If FGR chairmen ( think it's Dale Vince) loses interest than they will go the same way as Rushden and Diamonds.
