If you have never

manxmanc · 11th April 2008, 20:18

been before, tomorrow is a great day to give fc a look...

Fc are looking to seal a place in the playoff positions, and each game is crucial for their season now, so this looks to be a good day and a large crowd.

Utd heap · 11th April 2008, 20:20

I'm tempted...
Ecspecially as i get in for free, and with Utd not playing.

manxmanc · 11th April 2008, 20:22

Go for it, you'll go back.

Johnson · 11th April 2008, 20:24

Are you going Manxy ?

manxmanc · 11th April 2008, 20:27

Aye I'll be there...meeting Sparks in eccles...

Surely your not?

Aye, don't worry you'll get ya texts off one of us!

FUCK.

Edit: Its the semi final, the final is a Sat 3 PM

Same day as West Ham mind...

Utd heap · 11th April 2008, 20:53

West Ham is 12.45, you'll have to be quick!
Think i'll give this a go tomorrow, just need to work out how to get there, i trust it's easy?

manxmanc · 11th April 2008, 21:01

Aye true!
Yeah do you live near a Metro station?
I usually get a lift from eccles, but the easiest way is to get the metro to bury (from manc city center) and then follow the crowds up to gigg lane.

I can PM you my number if need be, if your worried about getting lost... i'm not to great on the area, but people I will be with will be able to help.

Utd heap · 11th April 2008, 21:02

Nah you're alright, i'll find it alright.
Can easy get to Manc city centre.

Lizard King · 11th April 2008, 21:03

George, don't listen to manx - he's a serial rapist.

manxmanc · 11th April 2008, 21:06

Nice one mate

You not going Lizard?

135 from town stops right at the bottom of Gigg lane

ralphie88 · 13th April 2008, 12:35

Was a good day out all round, as it always is at FC. Ended up getting absurdly pissed though and still recovering.

One little gripe though, at a "re-united" day encouraging OT matchgoers to attend, I wasn't sure how appropriate the "this is how it feels when you don't sell your arse to a gnome" chant was.

That stuff always used to wind me up when I went loads in FC's first season and was one reason I stopped going that much. Although FC is undoubtedly friendly and welcoming to MUFC match-goers, that kind of chant just gives ammunition to those who claim that FCUM fans have it in for MUFC and their supporters.

Wolfboy · 13th April 2008, 17:03

I think the best thing about FC is that everyone has a voice, if you want to chant that stuff then you can. If you don't agree, then you keep schtum and chant the other ditties.

I think everyone has their own view on the take over at MUFC and FC gives a great platform to show this.

Almost all

One city fan who I think has been to most games home and away this seson wont be finding himself too welcome at the games anymore after telling two lads to stop singing United songs

I agree but I didn't hear it yesterday and it's been dying a death. Also it's aimed at Gill and Co. not match goers.

It was sung on Sat as I remember singing it...

Seriously though the sooner this chant dies the better IMHO.

manxmanc · 14th April 2008, 16:21

Bah...its not that bad... but understand peoples problems with it...

Nows not a good time to mention I was at Roma a few nights before eh..

UnitedRoadRed · 16th April 2008, 13:37

Good win last night and FC are now up to third in the league.
Looks like Bradford PA are timing their good run well though and are clear with a game in hand.

manxmanc · 16th April 2008, 18:42

Aye looks like its going to be playoffs for FC...not bad for their first season in the league mind.

Not bad considering how much FC've been fucked over with the various postponement of games. I think we'd have won this league if we'd played more of the games when they were scheduled.

Got a feeling they could be fighting with Skem for that last play off spot

Although they have a hard run in still got to play Bamber Bridge twice and also away to BPA
Although Skem V Curzon on the last day of the season could be a bit tasty as well if especially if Osset are still pushing Skem for the play offs

Wouldn't mind to much if they BPA

Yeah, that would be some game if it decided who got 5th spot.

ladybarnred · 17th April 2008, 16:54

I reckon Skem could miss the playoffs. They're falling apart

mickthered · 17th April 2008, 23:58

Newcastle Blue Star 0 Bradford Park Avenue 0

Methinks it will be a hard game saturday
especially as it looks as though they have now changed their minds about wanting to get relegated
