    i raise your FA Cup 1974 with FA Cup Final winners 1987 :)

    Oh no you don't!

    Birmingham are a bigger club you said. Seeing as they've never won the FA cup & only made 2 finals, when was the last time they made it to wemberley?

    Now you revert back to Coventry! 1 final, in which they won.

    Not bigger clubs.

    You can't win this one mate!:D
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    So you think the other parties have the right to go round shouting abuse at people on the streets?

    It seems odd that Gordon Brown got in such hot water for making a private comment about Gillian Duffy yet the BNP have the 'right' to harrass voters in the street!

    What if David Cameron had started yelling at single mums and benefits claimants? I'm sure he wanted to a little bit.

    Do you know if the BNP guy actually harassed anybody in the street, or are you just using your own personal prejudice against the BNP to support your claims?

    To me it looked like he was out drumming up a bit of publicity campaigning for votes. To you it looked like harassing people.

    As you said these people were voters, they could easily have ignored him, walked away and not voted for him. The BNP would have got no free publicity.

    Instead the lads decided to go over spit in the guys face, for whatever reason and start fighting in the street.

    As I said first of all, I would like to know who was doing the filming. It would explain a lot.

    Liam, but you're in league 1. So according to chucky, you're a smaller club than wigan/bolton/hull and the other 40-odd clubs above you...:)

    Would you disagree with him?;)

    Leeds = big club and on there way back to the big time and you'll see Wolves go past you on the way done.

    Epic fail in the wind up chucky. Never mind eh. dev'll be along soon...;)

    I do believe we have a lot of potential to secure a future in the prem. It'll be difficult, & will take several seasons. I think next year will be as tough as this year. But we can do it. & we have the foundations to do it too.

    I just cut and paste it from the website and couldn't be bothered taking those bits out, still classed as an achievement compared to those clubs that have never qualified though.
