The Blues Fans Podcast and Live Show
What a weekend we had last week. My normal 200-mile trip to St Andrews was interrupted by a tweet from the club. It said “Would all Blues fans please cease their journey as we cannot guarantee the match will commence” I was 150 yards from the ground on the 97 bus !
Well, what a difference a week makes? Since my last literary contribution 6 points ,5 goals, 2 clean sheets and an upsurge in position in an ever-contracting table. Only 3 points outside the playoffs, although we would need at least a 3-goal win to get in there.
When Troy Deeney arrived, I said I was reservedly excited. Troy’s start, by his own admission was not as explosive as we, or he would have hoped. My reservations were sadly starting to become more like fears. Too many interviews perhaps, too much talk and not enough action.
e open on Saturday and the season ticket holders who have tickets for that area can return to their favourite seats. For all you who have bemoaning the lack of decent seats to purchase on the day now is your chance to get back to a proper football experience. Even better news is the club has taken up my Tilton Talk Show colleague Craig Courtney’s plea for a return of “KIDS FOR A QUID”. Yes, the idea propositioned on last Monday’s show has become reality!
With the 0-3 drubbing by Forest still grating from last week we were forced to spend two weeks on an international break. With no Jude Bellingham in the side, I frankly lost any interest I might have had in the England game. I listened to the feeble excuses of G Southgate who left out the finest midfield player in Europe because he needed saving. The kid was on the form of his life and needed 2 international starts to establish himself as an England stalwart for the next 15 years and Captain of England’s next World Cup winning side.
In June we set ourselves a target of following on from last season and raising as much money as possible. Well though your support we have been able to continue support many areas so far this season. We have helped Blake and his work raising money for defibrillator and we have supported PTSD UK.
At Tilton Talk we are always looking to help and support our listeners and guests. In order to continue with this trend we have an film exclusive for you all.
During the Fulham game on 15th September one of our Fans in the Tilton Road was taken seriously ill. The event that occurred lead to a medical emergency being declared.
Back in May we were blessed by the fact we had gone from certain relegation to safety with two games to spare. At that point our manager gave the major players early holidays and sent out a bunch of trialists to fulfil the fixtures.
We asked you for guests that you would like to hear from and we continue to deliver. One very special guest will be joining us on 11th October and if you didn’t know already its going to be an absolute cracker
