New year, new me, I went for an early morning run, I didn’t have to in the end, as the traffic lights held up the bus for longer than I expected and I could’ve walked to the bus stop. The Wellington was to be the start of the day, and Pete was already in there,…… Continue reading 12/1/19 Blues v Middlesbrough, When The Fun Stops. . Remain Or Leave?
5/1/19 F.A.Cup 3rd round, West Ham v Blues, Crystal Palace v Grimsby Town. It’s The Sales, Two For One, Deal With It.
Although there was as many Blues fans on the concourse at New Street, as there was for the Wigan game, there wasn’t any ale trailers, I did spot, not so big Dave, who was standing over a figure sat on the floor, I joined him to see what he was looking at, Steph was trying…… Continue reading 5/1/19 F.A.Cup 3rd round, West Ham v Blues, Crystal Palace v Grimsby Town. It’s The Sales, Two For One, Deal With It.
1/1/19 Sheffield Wednesday v Blues, Base Camp.
I get confused at the best of times, but the Christmas holidays completely messes your thinking up, two bank holidays in the middle of the week, one the following week, double decker style, sandwiched by weekends, Boxing day and New Year’s day games kicking off at 3 o’clock, you lose track of what the date…… Continue reading 1/1/19 Sheffield Wednesday v Blues, Base Camp.
29/12/18 Blues v Brentford, A Bunch of Cheating Bees.
I had an unusual start to the day, I’d indulged in a bit of family visiting, the day before, and after discovering there was signalling problems between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton, hadn’t taken much persuading, to stop on my Brothers sofa, besides, I don’t get to see much of him these days anyway, coupled with the…… Continue reading 29/12/18 Blues v Brentford, A Bunch of Cheating Bees.
26/12/18 Blues v Stoke City. Wow, It’s Collapsing.
I was in proper holiday mode, and feeling sluggish, I caught the bus into town, full of passengers in sales mode. I don’t understand the clamour to join the inevitable scrum, that goes bargain hunting, in my experience, you never really return with anything that you actually want and/or need anyway. I bumped into Badge,…… Continue reading 26/12/18 Blues v Stoke City. Wow, It’s Collapsing.
22/12/18 Wigan Athletic v Blues. Bowing to Pier Pleasure.
Sometimes you wake up on a morning of a match day, with an overwhelming feeling that it’s going to be a good day, both in terms of having a cracking day out, but also the result, I’d woken up with that feeling. I did the usual stuff, bus, lottery, bookies, and spotted Spoons and the…… Continue reading 22/12/18 Wigan Athletic v Blues. Bowing to Pier Pleasure.
15/12/18 Bla. . Sal. . Altrincham v Stockport County, F.A.Trophy 1st Round. Striking a Blow.
Originally, I was going to go to Livingston v Hearts, the game was moved to the Friday by B.T., and it meant stretching the finances too much, so I fell back to doing Blackburn v Blues, got my match ticket, train tickets, splitting at Manchester, as Blackburn’s utter rubbish for real ale, then the R.M.T.…… Continue reading 15/12/18 Bla. . Sal. . Altrincham v Stockport County, F.A.Trophy 1st Round. Striking a Blow.
