The last match we could sing the ‘Terry and Ray’ chant. After the game Ray Lewington’s assistant Terry Burton agreed to take up the same position with the Bluebirds.

BSAD report: Good omens or no, it appeared that a number of Hornets had considered the “this is stupid” line of argument rather more seriously than we had, with only two hundred and fifty travelling fans in the away end, a figure in part explained by the fact that this was the least accessible of three consecutive away trips within the next week. I can’t help but feel that many Hornets have missed out over the last couple of seasons though… Ninian Park is hardly the most salubrious ground in the division, but it boasts an away terrace, a low roof and a bar area which combined to fuel a better atmosphere than has been achieved by many times as large a travelling support elsewhere in the recent past.
