Re: Peterborough - home tickets

There were a lot of empty seats near the Canteen side of the away end. Also a lot of empty seats in our side of the CF - which is curious.

Nuttall stayed on the pitch. If what you say is true, he'd have had a straight red. Seen 'em given, as they say.

Re: Cheltenham Town v Exeter City

The ref didn't cost us that game. I thought the pen was harsh - but the one he booked Thomas for diving...not sure he wasn't right, tbh. Thomas barely complained, and that was telling. Also, he didn't send off Nuttall for a pretty horrendous late challenge. What cost us was the fact that we had to w...

Re: Former CTFC chairman backs the Robins Trust

Is this PB backing out of the club?

I remember the incident, clear as day - and Schmeichel's reaction, in particular. Horrific. IIRC, the match resumed after groundstaff mopped up the blood from the penalty area...not sure that would happen, nowadays!

Re: The rest of the season

Lots of criticism for Nuttall - but Taylor was probably an even bigger risk: a player who couldn't get into the starting XI of the team at the foot of the EFL. To say nothing of the length of his contract.

Some punts work, some don't - that's why they're punts, in the first place.
