First the road they are on. No one in sight, a real tumbleweed moment, not even a stray dog. It is as though aliens have kidnapped the population. The lack of public has clearly affected those on board. Even the photographer has given up. The glum faces remind me of a long delayed flight home from a holiday. Phones are being scrolled in an attempt to relieve the boredom. I expect there were a few fans to cheer them up just around the corner, but in this photo I actually feel sorry for the players, whoever arranged this should have limited the open top part of it to a very short route that guaranteed someone to wave at.

You'll need to change the shirt for next season when you play them in the league after your forthcoming relegation. Ah, so you’ve finally owned up to what you are. What kind of coward pretends to be a City fan or at least a neutral and then is outed as a Scum fan? Comical. You’re fortunate your nauseating stench is tolerated around these parts - I’d love to register on A$$hat and wind up the unwashed, semi-literate peasants who frequent that internet equivalent of the Walton Hop but no interlopers are tolerated - probably because the truth hurts. We’re not currently playing like a team in danger of the drop; and you’ve been relegated twice since we last were.

I guess they must have some injuries, though when they cheated to avoid Stockport that time it was because their opponents were on a 10 match unbeaten (winning?) run (games took place at Eastville park on the same day!) & when they called their league game off before the second leg of the JPT with us (when Lambert scored) it was clearly so they had a free weekend whilst we played up at Oldham.
