You don't expect to get anything down there!
These are the words of Bobby Browne before the game has even been played. I think Pete Mahon of Bohs said a similar thing after
the Bohs game this year as many others have in the past. I know
it's a subject more suited for a University Thesis but maybe fellow
City fans can help me out?
1) Where exactly does this myth of invincibilty come from? Does
anyone know exactly what our home record is in ALL competitive games?
2) Which factor contributes most, the crowd? pitch? distance for away team to travel?
3) Can other EL clubs lay similar claims to the claim of away teams
not getting anything at their grounds? If so which ones? And what have they got in common with us?
4) Does it annoy u to hear this , given what I even as a city fan would say the club's few trophy successes means we really are mediocre underachievers?
5) Put yourself in the shoes or boots of opposing teams/fans. What would u feel about an away trip to the X?
6) Why are such teams( invincible at home) really poor overall.
In England Sheffield Utd are always hard to beat at home but they too have a mediocre history. Southhampton are another example.
7) Someone please please tell me( and Gunther!) why Dundalk always beat us despite our so called fortress. Haven't they heard
about it? If not, I think they should be told.:confused:

His best chance is to play on the underdog tag and hope that something happens. If they lose he was an honest manager who was realistic about his teams chances. If they win then it was a fantastic victory down at the "fortress".
If we don't win by at least two goals then we will have to settle for a good run in the cup this season.

It's the pot and the kettle Pete.
Don't know where you got the cat from.
My advice, take to the DSPCA shelter.
The reason I have to work through the night is because we have to bring down the e-mail systems during the migrations so it needs to be done outside office hours and fully functional again by 08:00 Monday morning.
You're only fooling yourself anyway Pete, going in on a Saturday and spending the day on the Internet means that you'll be no better off on Monday. No more mid-week trips to City games for you.
