how's my luck!
« on June 19, 2013, 01:28:19 pm by colin cramb »
Next march the 21st is my 30th birthday, i was planning on going to a rovers game with about 20-30 pals and then on the piss into the nearest city, so ideally was hoping for an away game in maybe bournmouth brighton or yeovil or a visit to our capital after a game with watford, qpr, millwall or charlton, well after much anticipation who do we get?

Sheff Weds at home!!  :facepalm:  If i go for the weekend before i could have a weekend in Nottingham  :facepalm: :facepalm:

Its almost as if the fixtures compilers didnt give ANY consideration to my birthday! Unbelievable  :crying:

My luck's down with this fixture list too. I work in south west London and my mate's a Watford fan (a huge personal derby for us!). I eagerly checked the BBC this morning for the Rovers/Watford fixtures. Both on a Tuesday night. Nightmare. Surely there's a football ombudsman I can raised this with...?

Not the luckiest set of fixtures from a social point of view all round!

The three Beaches, Blackpool, Brighton and Bournemouth - all in the middle of winter, bit of a shame on that front too, but still beats getting last years fixtures and seeing when we'd got trips to 'the likes of' Stevenage to look forward to!

Not quite that bad lol. Last time we played on Xmas Day was at Charlton in 1957 ;-)

Ex-Hearts ace in iPad scam probe
 

Scam ... former Hearts stiker Colin Cramb
 

Exclusive
 
By GORDON TAIT

Published: 16th June 2013

FORMER Hearts striker Colin Cramb is at the centre of a police probe into an alleged iPad scam.

Cramb, 38, is said to have vanished after a buyer paid him for the gadget — but the ex-footie star reportedly failed to deliver the goods.

Last night a source said: “The word is he took cash for the iPad but that’s the last anyone heard.” The journeyman pro played for the Jambos, Hamilton, Southampton and 15 other clubs before retiring in 2009. Last night a Police Scotland spokeswoman said: “We received a report of fraud. Inquiries are ongoing.”
 
Cramb, of Cumbernauld, Lanarkshire, could not be contacted for comment.

In April we told how Bellshill Athletic boss David Turnbull was accused of ripping off players over £10,000-worth of iPads.

Not very lucky for me either! Always go to the grand national (been going for 20 yrs with my dad- a real old tradition!), that saturday is a home game again! Then am on stage the last week in January for our panto- 2 bloody home games that week - tues & Saturday! I'm sure it was the same last year as well!

Oh we'll, will have to make it up with more away games than the 12 last yr!

Rubbish for me too. Miss the first four games due to cricket, then my weekend away with the american football means I miss the Wednesday away game. My first home league game is 1st October!

As an exile in Bournemouth whose birthday is the 31st of August, I've got no complaints. Already secured a lift up. :woohoo:

Can I buck the trend? I wanted to go away for a weekend in August and was waiting on the fixtures coming out just incase it was a real tasty fixture... we don't play due to Wigan playing the Community Shield match. Smiles all around.

Although saying that, generally football comes second to most other things nowadays and I can't think of any fixture that I would actually kick myself at missing at the minute.

Hoping that we would have more Tuesday night matches at home because of work. The fixture list is 'pants' for me too especially with the coastal one's which I had hoped would be away games in the Summer.  :(
