Went to every game got to sunderland away thought forget this and look what happened lol
Not the only time weâve had one of our players with a broken leg at Stoke.
Same here - which is why Iâve been an ever-present (or near enough) ever since!

Still just enough games left to break the record but weâre cutting it fine âŚ
Walsall get a mention as a record breaker in the above article via ex player Terry Austin
Not mentioned in the article is Roy John, who joined Walsall as a full back in 1928, but converted to a goalkeeper in 1930 and was playing for Wales within a year of switching positions. Canât imagine that sort of thing happening now,

88/89 I was a season ticket holder, went to every home game and a few away; we broke records for number of consecutive defeats, as many have stated. Thing is, because it was second tier it was bearable. Banton was awful, deserved the stick he got.

Always thought it was a pity that we didnât sign Stuart Rimmer straight away
Am watching Forfar v Dundee Utd in the Scottish Cup on BBC Scotland.
Forfar have not won at home for 15 months apparently!
The Forfar number 9 makes Andy Cook look a bit like Twiggy.
Losing 1 nil at moment so will the search for a home win goes on?

Sadly they wonât be dancing in the Streets of Forfar tonight⌠but they do have someone who might take on the catering at the Bescot, though whether they do chips I am not sure,

Is that a crowd?
Socially distanced queue for the Bridies. There were half a dozen or so whoâd put up a ladder and were on the low roof behind Saddlerâs. The commentators reckoned Station Park would have been rocking if a crowd had been allowed in to see The Loons take on their fancy neighbours from just down the road in Dundee.
I enjoyed it in a bizarre sort of way. Far more interesting than the Champions league etc.
I get your last point.Having watched a lot of the Champions league I find most of the games boring. I employed a lass from Forfar when I was working and she was amazed I had heard of the place!! She reckoned it was one of the most unknown places in the Uk so I explained that not to football fans who were always on the look out for Forfar 4 East Fife 5

Weâve messed up, and thrown away our chance of glory. 
All this winning and losing is not what we are about. Still, always next season to have another go

Hereâs a stat I have come up withâŚ
.Well with Walsall still top of the table after the draw against AFC Wimbledon, that now means we have occupied top spot for the last 22 games, beating the 21 games when were top in 1979-80. Its certainly the longest table-topping run we have had since 1959 -60 where we were top for an amazing 32 games! On both of those previous occasions we were promoted. Maybe thatâs an omen for this season! I didnât think Buckleyâs first season in charge in that great 79-80 record would be beaten this season, but it has.

Iâm sure I donât need to point out the obvious retort to that.
However, last nightâs performance gave me a bit more confidence. It is very much in the balance now, Saturdayâs result will no doubt have a big say in things.
I feel more positive about things than I did on Saturday evening, which probably makes no sense, but that is the mind of a football fan I guess.
Two very big late goals in the last two games. Still ours to lose as it stands.
