Rumour has it that, such was the despair around the club in the initial days of Fenty’s reign, it ruined lives, the turtle neck market and at least one Mariner marriage.

I often wonder whether, without Fenty, Stacy and Steph Coldicott would still be together, still breaking boundaries as the ultimate Midlands power couple.

Instead we are left with nothing but bittersweet memories, legal bills and grainy recordings of Steph Coldicott on Big Brother 4.

Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

Quoted from Azimuth
This is one of the most entertaining threads I have ever read on the fishy, if you didnt laugh you would cry or worse.
What happened with "the orange" ?


I believe it refers to when we beat (a full strength) Tottenham. In the scenes in the dressing room after the game he screamed: "don't forget the orange" or some such. It was like the embarrassing uncle at the Christmas party who completely misreads the situation.

I remember me and the kids laughing out loud when it happened as it was so out of context.

Signing Scott McGarvey
Scott McGarvey threatening the lower Findus terrace
Mike Lyons, Bobby Roberts and Mike Newell.
Having to consult google maps to find out where our opponents are from

Most embarrassing moment for me is not seeing through Ian Holloway earlier. Going to work in Nottingham after Burton and being asked if I could turn violent...

Some games I attended:-
Losing to Gateshead in the Cup in the mid-70s (as a child I was spoilt by Lawrie Mc's team).
Losing to Halifax in the Cup one freezing night
Taking my 3 children to see us lose 4-1 at Rushden in the conference (I didn't go to Braintree).

Other games - losing to a team where football is minority sport - Bath. Braintree etc...

I wouldn't trust the people running this club for the past decade to sit the right way round on a toilet seat.

When, in response to a town fan racially abusing a black opposition player, the Stadium Manager issued a statement saying the perpetrator “will be banned from our ground for life” - then club officials facilitated a meeting between the abuser and her victim, and stated that was “the end of the matter from the club’s point of view”. The abuser freely attends matches now.

Yes as he was giving an interview to Sky.

I'm all for a bit of fun but it was live on TV, whilst beating a full strength spurs team is an achievement surely the celebrations and clown acts when the TV cameras aren't filming is more professional than letting the entire country see it.
