Facing Colin Croft in a friendly whilst playing for Pinderfields hospital team. I don’t remember seeing the ball!

All Good Tony

Born Wheatley Lane then moved down to Queensgate. Scotland for 6 yrs (uni), then moved around a lot in Northern England with career. Married in Liverpool and moved to Saddleworth 1989.

Off again!

Yes! No you tube pre match video either.

Brightness might be an issue. The intensity needed in daylight needs to be high but could be toned down for night games. I do not have problems with it but have clear memories of a night game at Bolton a few years ago. They certainly distracted but as we won 1-0 went away happy.

A solution that is used in some other professional sports is to stop the clock. As soon as the staff come on the clock stops until they leave the field. This eliminates guesswork. Same could apply to substitution and then no silliness when leaving the field. Thus 45 mins play per half.

] If you're talking about a mile of apres ski, then you're likely referring to Solden rather than Obertauern. Having been to many Austrian resorts, I would absolutely give it a swerve. It's a main road of seedy strip joints and not your typical Austrian family friendly, all shapes/sizes/ages apres. ...

Living in the borough it is sad to see as still loyal season ticket holders in the village. Will this be their 1987!

Just found an old pic online of North Street baths, then come across this old pic of how they used to teach kids to swin in a lake if no baths were nearby, the kids of today don't know how lucky they are lol 😀😄😀😄 Screenshot_20210908-133631_Gallery.jpg I remember being a member of the Swimming Club ...

RIP Mr Grime. I started in 63 and remember those teachers with Weapons! I can’t remember him using it and over the years had great respect for him and got me through A Level. When leaving the Match always thought of him driving along Brunshaw/Red Lees Rd. Remember the football at school. there were ...

They have 4 games live today and this must have been their lowest ranked game with least experienced crew.
Commentary was sub standard with som bizarre comments. Misidentified players a lot.
Overall not a good show and certainly a poor performance by officials.

As a regular reader and very occasional poster I agree entirely with your position. Debate and free speech are key elements but vitriol and bad language would seem to be encroaching on even the most innocuous topics. Tony, continue with keeping the message board in order. Part of the difficulty is t...

Didn’t realise such equipment existed with this name although it would seem company liquidated! Mind you our ground staff do a great job worthy of press attention.

There is science behind our grass measurement and the World press all keen on discovering the secret

Dave Roberts, and a little subdued as they’ve seen 2 up at OT twice before and we didn’t win!
Well that’s another record broken.

You should try working in the NHS on the clinical side and for opposing player read Politicians and Management But back to today- what a performance from the lads Great performance unlike the promises by Politicians- Hunt 5000 new/ additional GPs (failed) and now add on by Hancock 6000. No mention ...

Wheatley Lane, Barrowford Road 1952 then as a toddler moved down to Queensgate

Daily Mail 2015!

I suspect that some of these commentaries are post match highlights and not real time so sound scripted and wooden.

If we had a cup run would get more time. Stayed at the end of the City match and noted he walked off whilst the rest came over to the stand for applause. As stated if he had been fit would have had more chance to impress and may do so. Ashley is playing well and Wells needs more game time.

Nice one Tony. Wasn't that called character building.

I was there 63-70 and aware that it had been sold for further use as this new school but their surveyors managed to discover a mine shaft that meant demolishing and rebuild. Did Burnley Borough Council put our lives at risk? My schools have gone with Barden infants and junior biting the dust when th...

Well done.As a very infrequent poster I look forward to the banter and non clarets joining to discuss wider matters.
Up the clarets and both boards (this and the club).
