The Robins Nest Forum

End of season awards, pretty good season (not sure anyone saw them challenging for promotion for as long as they did).....I think there'll be quite a few home fans wanting to be there.

The Cambridge Utd forum is an interesting read, they want the EFL to look into the Peterborough team selection. There was similar on the Burton board. A few agreed, but the majority told him to stop being ridiculous and Posh fielding an under-strength team isn't the reason why they're not yet safe.

Initial allocation was 500. Bodes well!

"Tickets are available on the day unless the allocation is sold out in advance."

Any idea how early you have to get there to nab one of the 500 car parking spaces or nearby on-street parking?

Seems a bit unfair to do this...many fans will be driving or simply may not have any desire to have a beer or two that early in the day...

The tension......

I think both Cambridge and Burton will draw.

The last thing we need to see is "Long (og)" under Stevenage...

Be interesting to know whether any team in the EFL has ever spent the entire season in the relegation zone, only to escape on the last day. Be nice to make the right kind of history for once, this season...

I'm guessing he was completely fair, let things go, one of the best we've seen, etc...?

Any "sack the board" chants tonight, then...?

Ticket bought!

We need to win and either for Cambridge to lose (away to Port Vale) or Burton to fail to win (away to Fleetwood).

Who believes in miracles? Apart from Hot Chocolate, I mean...

13 shots, 4 on target....who is this team playing in our colours...?

I hereby pledge that, if we win tonight, I'll be buying a ticket for the Stevenage game.

A legal challenge against this has now been launched by a group representing a number of professional clubs.

This. Couldn't agree more.

By the way, you'll not get Coe - he's a bit busy preparing for the Olympics. You might be able to get Ovett - he seems not to be up to much, these days.

Nor me. I don't want the board sacked. I would love some significant new investment. Do I know how to get that? Nope, haven't a clue.

I always use on-street parking. If I think the match is going to be very busy, I make sure I get there early. Sometimes I have to walk a mile - and I realise that I'm lucky to have that ability. If I couldn't walk, I'd properly book parking in advance at the club.

I did say Burton had two winnable games left...

That leaves us needing to win both our remaining games while hoping Burton don't get more than a draw (and Cambridge don't get more than a point from their last two).

The Rotund Lady is warming up her vocal chords...

10 shots, 7 on target...

Get in!

2-0 Burton....

I'd be fine if I could just get rid of this damned cough...on antibiotics for a chest infection, now. Missus finally tested negative, but has been 'well' for a few days. The last time we had it, she recovered quicker than me, too.

And some idiots still think Covid is a myth.

Well, I won't be taking my place in The Paddock, today... Almost two weeks on from testing positive for Covid, and I'm still not fit to stand for 2 hours without coughing up my guts over everyone else.

What? We so 'dearly need' a new stand? You might well be alone in thinking the existing main stand is fit for purpose - even amongst the board. I would respectfully suggest you stop "chatting sh1t" - but, better still, why not let another poster express their views without verbally abusin...

I saw that announcement on the BBC and wondered about the coincidence of names - thanks for confirming.

Lloyd (apparently) and, imho, Freestone. Both assets we could get money for.

I assume both those are contracted for next year? Not checked.

I must've missed the street parties. We commented on here - maybe five posts related to their relegation? - but I think we're too engrossed in our own problems to worry too much about their's.

Angela van den Bogerd next week! That one will be fun if the portrayal of her role in the dramatisation is anything close to reality.

Mr Beer KC, appears to be getting quiety annoyed with the latest witness, Rodric Williams (former litigation lawyer and now head of Legal at POL). Meanwhile, Mr Williams' face has adopted an expression of permanent confusion as if he doesn't really understand why he has been asked to appear nor why ...

Oh, I missed that... I thought he'd left because nobody bought into the plan to sell 10,000 brass plaques for people to have messages engraved.

Hey, ho.

Nonono...goalkeepers never get injured...

1985CTFC seems to have vanished, again...

Heyyyy.....what if we drop Pardington from the bench and add another youth team player....? Surprised nobody's suggested that. It's the sort of out-of-the-box thinking we need right now...

He probably tries to claim the goal, himself...
