My first car Mk1 Cortina Also drove 2,3,4, and 5 Plus many many other old bangers Passed my driving test in it ..2nd time Think the test centre was by the shots football ground Failed first time in Farnborough Technically the Mark 5 Cortina was a Mark 4 facelift. It was also interesting in the Mark...

Passed my driving test in the same year England won the World Cup, having had no driving lessons, just borrowed a mates Morris for a spin around the surrounding military roads.
Paid 3 weeks wages (£25) for a dilapidated Morris Minor.

Well done, defied my gloomy forecast. Credit to the away support. A vital point.

Beyond flashes of class from Barrett and Henry, there’s very little about this sub-standard team to lead me to believe we can get anything from this game. But it’s football, and who knows. But very probably a loss… 2-0…?

Presumably a confidence team-binding exercise. We’ll soon see on Saturday…

Well today’s performance was then in line with what many had been predicting and it was a shocker. The Referee and the Linesman on the South Stand side didn’t help, but they are minor factors and we were truly awful and deserved the big nothing we got. Going back to an earlier post I asked about bo...

The writing has been on the wall for a few weeks, but some choose not to read it.
The Remembrance ceremony was very moving, as usual, the young trumpeter excellent.

Look on the bright side, we are nowhere near as bad as a lot of you are making out. I’m going to The Rec to support the boys, enjoy the game and witness a return to form (hopefully) 4-0 Shots. Oh, I’m certain that we are not a good side, we are in form.IMO our deficiencies are blatant. But I shall ...

No news is good news as far as I’m concerned. For me, the only fly in the ointment is the absence of non-match day income, which would be remedied by ground redevelopment….Oh, wait a minute..

Yeah, the HSE has tremendous potential, a hotel was originally scheduled for this site, as we know, and there is room to utilise the natural slope to accommodate all manner of assets, all under a nice stand. Whether the budget will stretch is another matter, but putting everyday facilities at the fr...

I agree that if they wanted to then they could do the development themselves and then lease it to the football club once completed but why would they want to when its easier to just lease all the land and say "If you want it go and do it" plus if they did the development and built the sta...

No I don’t recall RBC being invited to become partners and rejecting the idea Richard. What I’m saying is RBC don’t need partners to do any of this, least of all with the owners of this football club. I agree that if they wanted to then they could do the development themselves and then lease it to ...

That's fair enough Richard and I totally understand that, but considering there is likely to be over 4000 at the ground tomorrow, would it not be a health and safety issue with the limited space available at the front, with both home and away fans mixing? Thats a fair comment margateshot and in my ...

O.k., will accept that the EastBank roof needs replacing. Presumably it’s not a danger except during removal. My concern is with budget and compromises which are inevitably going to have to be made. It will be interesting to see initial proposals to give some indication of how much development can b...
