Thread | A conversation with a Nodge fan
at 08:38 10 Dec 2023
So on Friday me and the current Mrs Bono went out out in LDN town to take in a show.
Got the train/bus replacement/train back to Suffolk yesterday. Don't usually wear colours when not at football but I wore one of my old-skool scarves on the train.
Train pulls into Colchester en-route for Nodge and a Budgie gets on, complete with tracksuit, hat, scarf, Norwich club shop carrier bag full of Carling. I thought "Here we go" and our eyes meet, he gives me a nod and walks up the aisle. 2 minutes later, he comes back and sits across the aisle from us.
We had a very candid chat about how the 2 clubs are doing right now.
They are bricking it about next week. He sits in the "snake pit" which I gave him a bi of stick about lol as it sounds naff.
He said they have no idea what team Wagner puts out on match days, it's all so unpredictable as is the system they'll play.
They now accept that they're years behind us and are now where we were under McCarthy and Evans type era - no money, everything on the cheap and free signing/journeyman players with no building for the future.
Doesn't think they'll go down but equally although they hate all the noise around ITFC right now they kinda want themselves to go the same way.
I departed the train and wish him better luck yesterday then next weekend. [Post edited 10 Dec 2023 10:37]

Thread | Did we celebrate too soon?
at 17:00 7 May 2023
Today felt wierdly anticlimactical, didn't it?
We 100% deserve all the plaudits, and as fans, we had every right to celebrate, have award dinners & party! It felt cathartic after a generation of rot!
But maybe, just maybe, we should have waited a week?
I dunno.
Week in, week out, we've watched the most spectacular football in memory, we've broken records, we've exorcised demons, we've reconnected with the community, we've sold out the ground. New heroes have been born, memories have been made & these boys have made us proud again
Not moaning btw 😜
Looking forward to next year although it's not just the players and staff who need end of season holidays lol |
