£10 ticket a show of ambition
10:37am Thursday 8th May 2008
The summer looms, and for the next ten weeks or so Town supporters have to get their kicks watching action that they have no emotional stake in.

Comminges would be my player of the year
9:36am Thursday 1st May 2008
Voting has almost concluded to elect this season's player of the year, and with 17 men having made sufficient appearances to be in the running, for my money there are four in contention.
