Just bought my tickets for Saturday against the Gills. I predict a 2-2 draw with Maclean and Constable getting the goals. I also say 1000 Gills' fans will come. We always used to have a barney with their lot. I hope this time we don't give the TVP an excuse for their officers' overtime and just keep to friendly banter. Weren't Gillingham one of the favourites to go up this term? We went there once and Gary Barnett (3' 6" tall!) scored an equaliser for us. got one for me youngest yesterday- I reckon they'll bring a big crowd, though I do fancy a (long awaited) yellows win - see ya in the Priory ;D

Sarge, I've got a confession to make. After the Torquay game, when we went for a drink at the Priory, I met you with those two Torquay fans. I was slagging our lot off because we couldn't beat 10 men. I also said that Torquay were sh*t, not knowing they were Torquay fans! Well, they had yellow and blue scarves, didn't they! When you said they were their fans and I said 'I know', I lied. As soon as I saw their scarves, I felt like a berk! (been there before) Right! my prediction for Saturday. Based on the fact they haven't won away since the Titanic sank, I reckon a draw: 2-1 to us! Confused? Always!

As this topic is mainly about past characters and events,just thought I mention that sadly "Jaws" (wont put his full name) passed away on Weds.
Not an out and out football lad,but did a bit during the late 70's,and did go to the odd game,and bumped into him at The Globe before Wembley.
Some on here will know him better from The Oxford Mental Mob(not football related for those not aware.)

Come on Oxford - you CAN win today! You Gotta!
I follow the Yellows every other week, I go there for a thrill. But if we lose to Gillingham, I'll take a cyanide Pill!
They haven't won away for thirty games; For a home win, its a banker. But if we lose, I'll hide my head; And because of Tourettes, shout: "W*nker!"
Their manager thinks they're gonna win; He talks a load of waffle. Their forward line is f*cking cr*p; And couldn't score in a Brothel!
We've got Beano and Maclean; There's Wotton in the Middle. If we lose I'll p*ss my pants! I'll go away feeling diddled!
I'm sure us fans can help the team, Let's sing until we're hoarse. Today let's raise the f*cking roof! Will it help us win...........Of course!

Remember in the early 80s when we had special trains to Chesterfield for a few seasons.Always well supported and were good for a laugh. I think it was on one of those trips where we pulled into a siding to let a regular train through(as you had to) and sat and waited for the train to go by,eventually it arrived and proceeded to go past us at half a mile an hour,after what seemed forever the train went past but we still stayed put,must be another train coming? Then a train pulled in to the siding on the other side of the tracks and it was only a Wolves special! We proceeded to dismantle the 2 trains and throw them at each other across the line. Remember "its a knockout" when they used have a competition where the teams would have to smash a piano to pieces with sledgehammers and then get all the pieces through a letterbox, well it was a bit like that,its amazing what you can get through a train window.

I went to one Chesterfield game and we stopped at one station, which had a load of fans waiting for their train. As we pulled up, we all gave them verbals and I did something stupid and looked round after feeling a hand grab my shoulder. A copper's hand. Officer Dibble made me sit down and behave for the rest of the journey. He was a good old Dibble, really - I should've been arrested.

On Saturday, my feet were so cold, I thought I was going to get frostbite! Every time we got the ball near their goal, I warmed up a little. Then down our end and I'd feel like frosty the snowman again. And that was it. The ball seemed to be bobbling about in the middle of the park and down our end most of the time. I felt miserable, because of the cold weather and lack of foresight by our rabble (team, not fans). What finished me off was Mr. Wilder's attitude on the radio afterwards. Thank God the Sullivans are coming down on the 18th of December, because at the moment, there's f*ck all else to look forward to, going by Saturday's shambles. Apart from that, come on you Yellows!
A rather pissed off Cuddy
ps. I meant to add; when it gets really cold, a man's doodahs shrink and go upwards. I was so bluddy cold and mine went up so far, it looked like I had three Adams Apples!
