A View From The Other Side

I realise some of you may have zero interest in this which is fair enough but from time to time I like to have a snoop on OppositionWays out of curiosity. Thought it was worth compiling some together which I'll do in this thread whenever I get chance. 

Seems like Lincoln have some pretty level headed fans but then one or two absolutely bitter fuckers. 

Pick of the bunch includes:

THE BITTER

Quote

How about 10 points deducted for every £million of debt a club has?
Wonder just how low these perennial cheats would drop?

Quote
Bolton stayed in Lincoln last night. Not leaving much to chance.

No that was so they could rack up extra debt.

Quote

Surely we can't lose to these cheats?
Why are they not on multiple minus points?

Quote

I'd rather be us than them. How long do they have to pay their debt?

Quote

The simple truth is, as much as the away fans won't want to admit it, we lost to one of those vile clubs tonight. One of those that has spent beyond their means, and clearly continues to do so.

 

THE PRAISE

Quote

Good game. Shit result.
By the standards of last season Bolton should be pushing for promotion. But then that was last season.

Quote

Beaten by the better team. Good to see a big away following.

Quote

FT. Good game. Credit to Bolton - they did enough to control the game throughout, although we had some bright moments, especially in the first half. They also scored at exactly the right time and managed the game out. 

Quote

Bolton also look like a really good side who should be in the top half of the table.

Quote

I have backed Bolton to win the league as I think they are a decent team. They looked like a very settled team that are used to winning.

    He got us out of league one, kept us in the Championship against the odds & only really failed when the ship was sinking financially. Yes he was a little direct & predictable, but I wish

Oxford is better, but then again, I would say that as I went there

I reckon you deserve a blue plaque outside the Vulcan for that 😂

Did you wear a gown? Did you ride a bike to lectures? Did you run in the 1924 Olympics? Did you burn a £20 note in front of a tramp? Was your nickname 'oik'? Did you have tuck hampers? Did you play 'Go' and listen to Pink Floyd? Did you have a Butler?

More like the Queen Anne up Deane, Vulcan was too posh for me

No I was a scruffy punk. You are kidding right, I didn't have my cycle proficiency badge. Run, only after the Eton lad who took this piss. What's a £20 note? They called me by my first name (so Eton comment above). Come on mate, i'm from Bolton, we don't do hampers. Pink Floyd........no. No, but got invited to a posh house who had one. 

So Morecambe have a forum that isn’t tinpot?

Oh, FFS. I'd better start saving up.

They also don't like students getting jobs.

I work with a lot of Oxbridge folk - some are super bright, some aren't, some are from a rich background, some aren't. I dunno, from my limited knowledge of them there seems to be a seam that is the rch and entitled, but then there's everyone else who are just there, passed the exams and the interviews and wanted that experience. Considering I work with a lot, it doesn't seem to have given them a huge leg! 😄

I know they love to say its now over 60% from state schools now but considering that just over 5% of british school children go to public school it sort of highlights the imbalance. At least it is now over 50% - this does include things like state run grammars as well - I think my daughter's school proudly claimed they sent over 50 of their sixth formers to Oxbridge or LSE, I wasn't paying much attention as I very much doubt they'll go - they have their hearts set on Manchester. Another thing is that the South is overhwelmingly represented at Oxbridge, and no one is telling me Northern kids are thicker - so c'mon Boris lets get this levelling up roadshow up and running.

Their rules even prohibit it, they can work but have quite a severe maximum number of hours they can work during term, which is more restrictive than other institutions as far as I have seen. But it is certainly frowned upon, you are there to focus on your education, and if you can't afford to live that is your own hard luck.

Which given the additional costs which come from being members of the colleges and the mandatory fees they charge is something else which impacts the diversity across the institution.

They really are quite archaic in their thinking and approach. They are changing very slowly, but there is also some resistance due to history and traditions blah blah blah.

In short, no. Joined a couple of Facebook fan groups as a back up plan.

Yeah, UCL & LSE are her backup choices if she doesn't get to Cambs.

UCL students seem to have a ball but it's a totally different experience to any other. Depends I guess what she finds most comfortable.

Received this in my inbox from somebody at Cambridge Utd:

Had to touch base after last night....safe to say you've signed well!

Decent team there.

Should have been a hatful by half time so 2-0 was kind

Very balanced views from Cambridge.

Refreshing to see but they should know this is wanderersways and everyone is a cunt and every decision ever made is wrong. 

Let's see what Morecambe brings...

Yes. Remember last year they were proper bitter bastards! 

I hope Dapo dives, wins a pen, gets a player sent off, scores when clearly offside and turns them inside out. Just to hear them frothing with anger again

I hope you've blocked him / told him to fuck off for saying, "Had to touch base."

He'd have only been more of a cunt if he'd started his sentence with "So...".

Anyone can can touch anytime

To be honest I was surprised to receive it, I was very sporting with my reply wishing them the best etc etc. Thought you would like to know what their coaching staff actually thought of us.

That’s not the Bolton way. 

”I hope this finds you well


Tell them fuck off and hope they go pot

Warmest Regards
