Reading for me, the whole family went down. I think it was the only time all of us (and some are no longer around) managed to attend the same match sat together

I like saying to the Bury fan near me (yes singular), 'remember that time we nicked your good players and won promotion with them'....that always goes down well

This comes up every time we are in the same league. For me it is Blackburn followed by the DMB's, the massives, Burnley and then bury/wigan/rochdale/Preston/Oldham

I think the league have showed plenty of leniency to be fair. All this stems from problems created by both the previous and new owners, and the EFL clearly stated the terms on which we could sign players etc, and until we come out of the special measures the EFL set out, don't blame them for holding us to those terms

The guy is a very poor mans Kevin Davies, and I find it both disturbing and disappointing that we have discussions on how much we rely on him. Perhaps someone needs to explain to him what the word professional means in professional fottballer

Those crayfish can be vicious little buggers

You can buy tickets for the bramall lane lower, which is the bit we were going to get, my sheffield mate is going down there to get us a few

I do

I was only 6, but remember asking our kid why (on walking back to moor lane via manny road etc), why those Everton lads were on the floor, I suspect his answer of they were drunk and taking a rest might have been a tiny lie

I'm more interested in the blu marble bit. Dean got into bed with them when he bought the club before Ken Anderson was around, but am not sure if Dean owned the club out right at that point. My assumption is that, if he got the loan form BM and it was guaranteed against say, the stadium, that would have had to have been signed off by ED,as he still owned the club when Dean got his BM loan, if this wasn't disclosed to Ken A when he joined with Dean, then I understand Ken A might have a point regarding litigation, as he would have had to have been told the terms of the BM loan. As we don't really know what the BM loan isall about, i m more interested in this element

Bradford away can go to 3,500 if there is demand, but with Sheff Utd the week before, not sure we would sell out, unless we turn over the blades

I'd be surprised if the staff haven't been informed of any changes to wages. Unless things have changed, salary payments to staff come under the therms of agreement section in the contract you sign (as a permie anyway), so any changes to salary dates have to be agreed bedfore a company can change them, saying that, it is a good few years since I wrote a commencement of employee contract. Regarding the ST, i have no doubts they are doing things that they feel are in the best inteests of the club however, they have actually no mandate to even claim to have any support from us supporters, as it isn't mandatory to be a member of their organisation and a BWFC supporter. I am a little surprised they chise to publicise their actions in meeting with the EFL but I'm not a member and don't know any of the people involved, so don't really know what they are actually trying to achieve in publically embarrasing the owner, the club and themselves

I was under the impression that a condition of the takeover between ED and the EFL with the new owners was that the ground was protected, but they could sell other assets, but then again nothing would surprise me

Couldn't care less, he left and we moved on and he is hardly renowned for getting teams into europe anymore.

Freak result saturday however, we need a striker as madine can't score and we need either to get someone in to move the ball around quicker or get someone on the ball who can do that

without my glasses, couldn't quite see who it was on that clip, so it was poor from Derik then

Beevers shouldn't have been beaten in the air for the first goal and trotters 'tackle' on the sideline was just embarrassing in the build up to their second, however still unbeaten and both scunny and sheff utd will slip at places they shouldn't, february when we play both Bradford and Sheff away consecutive matches will be interesting

I'll get excited/disappointed when I actually see something official

Chorley could be the making of this lad, it will toughen him up and if he keeps scoring, will come back full of the confidence and strength he will need

They still remember us wuth fondness you know

Meh, I'll be worried if we don't bounce back after that, just one of those days when you waste a day watching your team not perform

Eddie Hopkinson would have to be goalkeeper though

Fuck em, liked to act like bully boys until the numbers were even, and then they shat themselves

Agree with both of these sentiments
