I was there and cant remember us ever playing in red at home but maybe we did?
I was only a little 'un but remember that we were one of 4ish games on that day, match abandoned and the biggest snowball fight I've ever seen.
-
Nope....Nb will ave this..
Could of sworn its that office block on the M4 coming in!
-
Brentford?
-
You crack on nb I'm going on the port now Reading are two down and then it'll be head down!
-
Well done Thorpster.
How about this one??
Going o the Donc on the sign I'll go for Doncaster!
-

Plough Lane?

Film being made about him isn't there?
It's planned 'The Greatest Footballer You Never Saw' although there is the biography, the ex missus, the piss heads and dealers that knew him. Story line needs thickening out a bit!
I think Liza could do with a few quid, she said he only got £38 a week top whack and Reading FC paid it straight to the tick man!
£38 a week in the 70s, then now they're on £250k .... just a tad better than inflation?

I don't even know anyone called Gym never mind go to one.

he gave the V sign to luton's goalie didn't he ?
ps - where's your local
did he play for reading in late 70's.
No idea about the V sign to Luton's goalie but this pm Liza telling stories about a game Reading played at Elm Park when they started with 10 as he was still in the Spread Eagle by the ground and walked over with his boots in a bag from Tescos and when he went to Cardiff she answered the door to the Manager 30 mins before kick off and had to lie that he had left for the game even tho he was in the house with a needle in his arm!
Best vid I've seen is when he scored and started kissing a copper behind the goal. Didn't give a shit that Robin Friday lad.

Married Robin Friday years back (owd uns should remember him), works behind bar in my local, Goldie Hawn lookalike when Goldie Hawn was fit, great football stories and a really good laugh.
Question is, how much older can a bird be? Liza's pushing 60 but fit as!

Jeepers haven't been down to Leigh since the days of Des Drummond and Jon Woods. Early 80s I think when they won the league by beating Hull KR.
Correct me if I'm wrong but it's been a while.
-
Those who know me on here know I've played football and run a club at Conference level,
One thing is for certain. If supporters boo = player confidence goes down = team suffers = club suffers.
What do the boo'ers want? OUR club to suffer? Grow up. All this shit about "I pay my money and do what I want" doesn't wash with me and never has.
-
In 40 odd years of watching MY team far and wide I have never boo'ed or doubted the fact that players don't try their hardest. We've had shit players but they are in a Bolton shirt and I've backed them. We've been great and shit bouncing through the leagues but from Hierro from Real Madrid to Mark Came from Winsford they tried their bollocks off. Some of these young fuckers should get some of the Roadrunner vids to see what Bolton is really all about..
The shit who boo are scum and don't deserve the right to say they support the whites. You are not supporters, so just fuck off.

I've just decided, you're taking the piss. De Ridder was heading for a MoM performance before being subbed. He's what we've needed, a winger who doesn't only cut in field.
Wasn't that impressed by De Ridder to be honest. At Watford he farted around with it too much when we needed some urgency and I can't remember him going past anyone yet. Does he know where the by line is or just playing to DF instructions?
-
He didn't have a great game distribution wise but watch that corner again. Really well worked set piece, high dropping corner panicked the whole defence.
Bit harsh to blame boggers completely imho.
Agreed, what was Spearing doing in the challenge when he headed it in? Basics - he knows he won't win the header so time to give the oppo a nudge to make his header difficult. He just turned his back. Boggers was just trying to make himself big like that Schmeichel bloke used to do.
-
Anything happening ........ ?
Yeah Dawson would have had an hat trick if he could head it. Apart from that, not a lot.
-
Sorry mate! Let you down today!! Fucking Skegness
You crack on with you band practice and I'll carry on with beer and trying to get home!
-

The groundstaff are currently clearing the snow that fell overnight from the covers that have protected the pitch throughout the week and will keep you informed throughout the morning of the conditions of the pitch once all the snow has been cleared.
At the moment the pitch is perfectly playable with no effect from the overnight frost but the final decision on whether the match takes place will, as always, be taken by the match referee.
Further light snow is forecast this morning and on this service we will update as and when information is known.

I assume it's near Kings Lynn now rather than Orpington now that he's flit! Could check Companies House but couldn't be arsed with that tosser.
I never new a place existed called Gaywood but I do now.

The police are lucky he never reffed at Burnden, there'd be 55,000 suspects.
Got an FA database, so got his address, email, home number and mobile if anyone still wants it .... been tempted so many times when pissed up.

I was in the mix in the Early 80s at Smithills but the Grammar always got ganged up on by the Moor and the High. Jack Farr (dep head) got caught a cracker I remember!
