We should find out how many Tescos they have locally and all descend on the ground.

Maybe a few standby chants to add:

You're just a pauper's Notting Hill. Shit Notting Hill.

Enjoy your taxes. 45% Enjoy your taxes.

We might live on a rock, but at least we're not joined to Chorlton. Shit hole Chorlton.

Etc.

I went to West Didsbury last year, really good charity shops.

I was in staying in Manchester  at the time and had exhusted it's delights, so it was just one tram. There was an excellent second hand book shop that had exactly the out of print book I wanted in West Dids.

Besides Peel is better for charity shops and second hand stuff.

I've tried that one out by shouting it at the cat. Doesn't really work as a football chant.

I see they beat us again in any case, but at least we scored.

[Anyone]

He’s fat , he’s round , he’s given us a ground …

That was a good football chant , about John Prescott I believe.

Just so you know the government will be covering any short fall in costs for FC IoM this financial year. Official.

I suppose it is in their sport tourism ‘budget’. 
And why not, millions spent on a death race why shouldn’t money be spent on THE national sport. And no one dies. 
Bonus.

Give it up for heaven’s sake. You are so tedious.

Looks like a busy one at the bowl today, with rumours of 800 to 1000 visiting fans.

Its great that most weekend there is a home game you can find visiting fans in the pubs of Douglas, and there is often decent feedback on the visiting clubs social media about their enjoyable weekend away.

Its all good PR for us, even when it was all over UK news when visitors got stuck here the other week.

Only the most miserable could begrudge a bit of government support for something that brings thousands of visitors a year to spend in our economy and also brings pleasure to lots of locals.

I wouldn’t be surprised if tonight is a sell out.

Not anymore. If only they’d invest at the airport
