Probably not forgiven us for making him shave his tasche off. 

PNE are the only Lancashire club that haven’t made the premiership (discounting Oldham, Rochdale etc) & he’s fucking jealous of our glory years. He never has a good word for us and always goes against us if he’s making predictions . Twat.

Oldham were founder members of the Premier League!

Lawrenson's had his day, Didn't mind him to be honest in a quirky way.

Not many good pundits coming through,  but like Liam Rosenior on Quest, not a big enough name for the big companies though.

Danny Murphy comes out with some decent stuff but sends you to sleep with his monotone Cheshire drawl.

I was impressed with Lee Hendrie's enthusiasm, knowledge and humour doing the Bury game last night. As a neutral, why don't bury let any fans behind the goal? I'm struggling to think of another league club where home fans are restricted to watching from 2 stands. Smaller clubs like Accrington and Macclesfield don't have such a small club mentality.

Professional fighters funded by Putin to smash the English i reckon.

He didn't want the upcoming World Cup in Russia ruined by boozed up Lardy bellied English garden furniture chuckers.

He told 'em to hit the English hard in France + frighten them off travelling to Russia - it worked. 

 

The Russians didn't have it all the own way in Marseille. So i was told

When they last won the cup (the record score, and not conceding at all) they finished 8th. Bolton were the strongest team in the league, 6 points adrift of the field.

1926:

Top 3: Huddersfield, Arsenal, Sunderland.

Selected others: 4 Bury, 7 Liverpool, 8 Bolton, 9 ManU, 11 Everton, 12 Blackburn, 20 Burnley, 21 ManCity.

Interesting bit about how the safe standing scheme is used at Shrewsbury here; each slot is individually ticketed as we knew but you also get a wristband for access and a steward checking each person entering the area.

It seems quite a regimented and controlled "freedom", which might increase the chances of safe standing being allowed across the divisions.
