Anyone remember Blackpool in April? What a fantastic day that was. What about Stoke in May, who could forget that? Two great away days where we turned up in numbers, we sang our hearts out, we waved flags and banners, we gave the team unwavering support, we had a party and we could have sold […]
You’ll have to excuse me if my spelling and punctuation isn’t up to scratch at the minute. It’s because I still have my hands over my eyes as I can’t bear to look at our defence. I suppose we should give them a little bit of a pat on the back for keeping the defeats […]
