Ha! Feck you ya fat old racist.

Just put 11 behind the ball and do anything to keep a clean sheet. Get a couple of 0-0s in our next away games then start to build from there. What will actually happen, we'll start brightly and carve out a couple of chances before conceding to their first effort on our goal.

Agreed. I presumed because we were ripping up the whole lot, we couldn't afford to do as much in the defence as we'd have liked in the 1st window. I hope at least 1 new beast of a centre back comes in winter.

"Can I help you sir?"

Aye, I've heard that before. Get 2 or 3 of the same breed by all means but not from the same litter.

We're in Wales this weekend with ours. He's 12 on Monday. Still bags full of energy but his coat has a lot more grey in it these days. 15 tends to be a good age for his breed, he's an English Pointer, I just hope we do get another 3 years with him. Dogs are ace.

Peace deal or not, I still hope they're kicked out of Eurovision. Twats.

3 down after 20 minutes in their cup final. Who was it said the Welsh were like international Wiganers?

Suggestions for a new national or English anthem. Get away from. Royalty, fealty, mythical green and pleasant lands. How about A town called malice or Down in the tube station at midnight? Live and die in these towns? Something that shows we're a bit rough round the edges these days, a bit naff but generally just get on with it.

I'd forgotten him. Christ, he was bad. Made Moxey look like Maldini

Giving this one a miss this year. I probably should admire Burton for punching above their weight season after season but I cant help finding them annoying as well as our usual inability to win there. Last season notwithstanding.

Etete is possibly the worst player I've ever seen. The very definition of looking like a competition winner. He looked in better shape last Thursday but still doesn't resemble a footballer imo. Chic Charnley Jon Otsemebor

Ashworth is still at Blackpool isn't he? They loaned him out to Raith but he was on Blackpool's bench the other week.

I'm surprised at the praise for Tony Adam's book. Possibly, the worst autobiography I've ever read. There's some interesting stuff in there but it's ruined by his monstrous ego. I had to check a few times I wasn't reading Franz Beckenbauer's book, there were so many comments about what a great, cultured footballer he was. Probably best summed up when he picked his greatest ever XI and chose himself!

He was no Nishizawa

'Sheila's, wogs and poofters' is still available! https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sheilas-Wogs-Poofters-Johnny-Warren-ebook/dp/B005TD42XY

His tales of Larry Lloyd's time there as manager were an eye opener. Years ago since I read them but great reads. A season in Verona as mentioned upthread also excellent. I'd also recommend; Keeper of dreams about Lars Leese Left foot forward- Gary Nelson Tor - German footy All played out - Italia 90 and the scummy English press pack.

^ aye. The Police get a lot of stick, often deservedly so, but their prompt actions today potentially saved many more lives. Feckin heroes them today.

Serious incident in Cheetham Hill. Reports of shooting and stabbings at a synagogue.

Only remembered at 10.10 but no bother this season. In x2

Some decent length sentences there. I wonder why 'Boss man', who had his own market stall and used to ring the Children's home to contact his victims, required an interpreter for court? What's Urdu for "you're fucked" ?

At least a couple of the players, play for women's sides higher up the pyramid, Blackburn and Everton iirc so I cant imagine theres any kind of binding contract with BWFC.

Manager and 2 of the better players (so I'm told) have left. Players tweeting that it's a club issue. What's going on?

Nethanyahu already saying Israel will resist a Palestinian state. This is a surrender/capitulation request not a peace deal.

We were on ITVs the big match again this weekend. The 2-1 win over Sunderland in 1975 in front of 42,000. Barr, Lada, Unipart and the Lamplighter restaurant amongst the advertising hoardings. Sam's header, whilst not as far out as legend had it, was still a cracker.
