  1. Emlyn Hughes was probably the worst I’ve sat through. He had a voice akin to finger nails down a blackboard.
  2. You forgot Being from Bolton, 1000 points.

    Reading (H)

    Club ought to invest in the type of netting you erect on the boundary of a cricket pitch or gold driving range and string it from the roof.
  4. Didn’t we once win The Asia Cup?

    Safe standing

    Not a chance will it be in ESL Crazy Corner. They’ll use this to push that boisterous energy to NSL or into a corner of ESL and NSL so it’s picked up on TV games. Neil Hart has been thinking of ways to break up the Crazy Corner; here’s his opportunity.
  6. Yet he speaks so highly about you!
  7. Hang on a moment, is a quick EFA only funny when certain people do them?
  8. A news item on yesterday about a woman who was fleeced for £100k+ under the guise of cryptocurrency. Apparently she ‘invested’ a couple of hundred pounds which, within a couple of weeks became a couple of thousand pounds. The problem was, it was all a confidence trick where the tricksters were willing to gamble a few thousand pounds that they’d come back in for greater reward. The woman who just got 10x her original outlay came back with £100k. Strangely it was just before a downturn in Crypto’s value.
  9. The last few times we’ve been to Wigan the police numbers have been boosted by police from around the quieter (in footballing terms) areas. A high number of North Wales Constabulary, for instance but also Cumbria and Cheshire. These outside police teams will have very little experience of policing large football games. Are GMP puffing out their chests and telling their inexperienced colleagues “This is how we deal with idiots!”
  10. Let’s not forget his early coaching days would probably have been mentored by Ian Holloway. Very few run their mouth off more than he does.
  11. Oh, I thought the last time was when Bogdan had a blinder; so much so that Liverpool bought him. (And then played him twice and loaned him out a lot)
  12. For some unknown reason FB have decided I need to know the away ticketing arrangements for Portsmouth fans when they come to the Reebok. Interesting that each band of loyalty points get a full day to purchase their tickets. Also interesting they’re only allocating 2,600 seats. I assume Neil will be looking to up that number to the full 5k+.
  13. Certainly last time we played there (FACup) the atmosphere was very poor.
  14. Just been on news that a body which has been positively identified as still intact has apparently already been cremated and the family have already collected the ashes. I’m not sure how the families will get closure.
  15. Indeed. There are ways to avoid the police corralling fans who get off a public train ballooning. Avoiding them when you just got off a football special is a bit more difficult.
  16. Sounds like Derbyshire Constabulary would love to know where folk are.
  17. I always thought that was reserved for our East Anglian friends from Norwich and Ipswich.
  18. Don’t recall that one. Was it to the tune “If I had a hammer…?” In the same direction, (to the tune, My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean) we used to sing “If I had the wings of a sparrow, if I had the arse of a crow, I’d fly over <blackburn> tomorrow, and shit on the bastards below. Shit on, shit on, shit on the bastards below, below. Shit on, shit on, shit on the bastards below.” or (to the tune “He’s only a poor little sparrow”) He’s only a poor little cockney. His face is all tattered and torn. He made me feel sick so I hit him with a brick and now he don’t sing anymore!

    Or sets him back another few weeks.
  20. Just for clarity, is an incorrect spelling mistake actually a word spelled correctly?
  21. He’s changed his tune since his days as a Boy Soprano singing We’re Walking in the Air.
