Another thread already 'Taffy'

IanMcL

The saddest of news. Just 4 months older than me.

I first saw a very young spindly lad in an FA Cup match, one evening in Oxford. He grew into a superstar.

Thank you for those wonderful moments.

No idea why Football League clubs can't continue to replay, when the prem clubs, complaining of fixture overload, are not even in the draw! Someone suggested prem clubs separated in round 3. That would give 20 smaller clubs a chance, if no replay, at least maximise the chances of a big club match. F...

When we look back on this season and we are in the Championship and Everton & Forest are still in the Premier league we will wonder how it's happened Forest & definitely Everton should be below us,I suppose the blame lies with Kompany, we are better than bottom 3 much better. If blame is to be attr...

Presumably Ian, there is evidence of the current standing arrangements in the CFS being unsafe? The CFS in it’s entirety is inherently unsafe by today’s standards and requirements. 600 people moving in and out of the outside seating area through 1 access and egress point is shockingly bad, as is th...

I'm 31. I joined clarets mad at 13. It was one of the only sites not blocked by school. One of the lads in my form at actually signed my year book "loves clarets mad ".

The biggest features I miss are Holy custards match day threads and Big Dave's paper reviews.

Madge would be proud of you!

Brilliant..... I am a CFS season ticket holder.... have been since we went back in there.... Instead of plans to replace the whole end (which is absolutely needed) we are spending money on safestanding........ When every one in there stands already. Madness. Emotional meeting? Intriguing...... Of c...

Just got a club email, confirming my SS us in place and will be collected on 2nd of each month.

My season ticket is, therefore, renewed!

It'd be pretty cool if they all ended up together at Charlotte.

It is a bit of a trek for a home match!
....and all the away matches!

IanMcL

35 years doesn't seem possible. There are no words even after this time. Watching football should be safe.

I always think Bradford, when Hillsborough comes up. Also an horrendous event with lives lost.

IanMcL

Not just

IanMcL

That may be why the wheels have come off. Players may well be thinking....what's the point - get 3 points lose them again because of directors.

IanMcL

Another 4 goals! The lad is whatever comes after 'on fire'.

Thanks for doing Everton.

IanMcL

I can’t find his thread, sorry, but noticed when I watched the game back that he put the cross in for JBL’s miss and then for Fofana’s. Brilliant deliveries. Then he should’ve won us a penalty. A couple of points here: 1. He put two of the best crosses in from the right I think we’ve seen all year....

IanMcL

Well done Chelsea.

Come on Prem...deduct some more points!

IanMcL

We are 6 plus 1 for goals behind. Massive ask. Win all ours, when we can't score a proper goal, only world's and Forest fall apart...

IanMcL

No issue with that, MT03ALG. I understand that once there, Ashley spoke to Scott and encouraged him to join. I presume similar conversations within Charlotte.

I hope not Ian,stick with LF he's struggling at the moment but there is a great striker in there.

We need more than 1 in the Championship!

Scott Arfield was recruited for Charlotte by Steve Walsh, ex-Chorley SFA and Lancashire SFA Team Manager.
Steve was the Chief Scout for Leicester City when they won the league. He recruited Mahrez, Vardy, Kante

I think Ashley Westwood recruited Scott Arfield at Charlotte.

IanMcL

Receiving love at Millwall. Move possible or is he our 'proper striker' in the Championship?

Well played AV.

Manchester Sheiks will be in raptures.

The 2 centre backs have it!

IanMcL

Talks about his career so obviously a section on Burnley including Dyche, the transition to Premier League football and the best player he's played against. Burnley chunk is from about ten minutes in. It's all a good watch though. Always rated Arfield and he seems a sound lad. https://youtu.be/El3N...

I have never seen a Tram rebuilt in the Prem, have you?

Probably favours the Manchester's, Newcastle's and Nottingham's of this world.

Two title's in a row and only losing three league game's (so far) in two year must be some sort of record for a player

No tram can be taken apart and renewed and start well in the Prem.

How many games start can you give others, in the Prem? 0.
We gave half a season, or more. It will be the same next season and the one after. This is just playing snd hoping.

He looked Cullen bit not their players, for worse.

He let just about everything else go. "Get on with it", whichbthey did.

Okref, on that basis.

IanMcL

I think that’s how I feel at the moment. Walked on the turf yesterday, felt nothing at all. Wasn’t even that arsed when we scored. It’s been a highly frustrating season and I feel like I’m annoyed, unhappy with every aspect of the club at present. Renewing out of duty which is annoying when the clu...

Play Trafford one half and Muric the other & we will quickly see which half of football is the most effective.

I think we have already seen enough.

Muric had errors last season. This season, his general keeping is much better and his distribution has made a vital difference. The defence is building a confidence it never had in Trafford. Muric distribution is as good if not better than just about all of the rest of the league, bar the top two ke...
