After the Reading playoff, my favourite game. Sybil and The Love I Lost was on the radio going back so always synonymous with that game. In the Moss Rose vault in time for the highlights. I was 23 and in the prime of me shagging days as well.

not guilty!

Enjoyed the day out, great following and tells you something about our mob when after 30 mins, the beer queue was rammed and no food. Pisscans the lot of us. Pity about the result but after not having seen them since Freedman earlier this year, the 3 games I've been to over Christmas gives me cause for optimism. It's all about next year. Flight back to Hong Kong leaves now, COYWM

Seriously? I'm like, oh my god, are you kidding me?

Olaf Snorasson and Jeremy Bon and I'm there

Is that England? You get that magnificent poppy display and then this. It would be quite acceptable to pump sarin gas through the store.

I'm sure Ricky would like that, spliff split the costs

Gutted, RIP Phil, what a tragedy . Poor bowler got to live with this for the rest of his life

Hopes and prayers for the lad

Had 8 pints of Samson in the away pub at Grimsby 3-3 game, was dribbling by kick off

When that bloke fell down into the lower tier when we scored?

Roger Walker had blistering pace, he just forgot the ball

i'd never get tired of kicking that faggot

I agree, but there's a bigger pool of British managers around nowadays with more foreigners and more sackings.

Take the new job mon, the kids alone aspect is the decider but also think where the job can take you in 3-5 years time compared to what you have now.

Another Bond villain meets his maker... Not Jane Seymour

They're not playing for their manager and when that happens, you've got to pull the trigger. When the manager comes out and says the players he brought in are not good enough, his time's up. Surely even the most optimistic would see that. I fully expect him to be potted late morning. I was in the camp of letting him go 12 months ago when it was clear he was too clever for his own good, his tactics were bizarre as well as his desire to distance himself from the players (got that last bit from a first teamer). But I accept he needed time to turn things around which he has had. I'm very disappointed in Jay Spearing to be honest. I thought he would step up to the role of captain but not only is his passing and movement consistently poor, he's gone missing on the pitch as a leader. I'm not sure who the right manager is really, most candidates have had success and failure at their previous clubs so it's a gamble whatever. The key ingredients are ability to nurture youth, get the buy-in of the seniors in a mentoring capacity with the emphasis on developing a side capable of mounting a promotion challenge within 3-5 years. With a stable wage bill, secured debt, there being no expectations from the fans for promotion in the short-term and with a reasonably strong squad, despite what Freedman says, I think Bolton is an attractive proposition. I would be happy with Nigel Clough. He commands respect, has experience at this level, the football is attractive and he is long-term thinking with youth development. Fans expectations have probably changed since the time when Dougie was appointed. It was a question of who can get us up, now it's who can keep us in the league and help develop a platform for long-term stability and success.

I was in Newport, South Wales last year through work and went for a normal breakfast at Wetherspoons as soon as the doors opened at 7am. By the time I finished at 7.45, the place had about 30-40 blokes on their second pint.

The first cut is the deepest

Utd coasting, let in 5, sending off, 2 pens conceded and Jonny fucking Evans off injured If Carlsberg did football matches...

dogs bollocks going forward, dog shit at the back

not too far away is no.1 on the bingo list at the moment

Is Lennie Lawrence still alive or have they stuffed him and left him in the comfy seats?

Chicken Little? Fowl play?
