We've had a lot worse this season but that doesn't mean he wasn't poor. He couldn't wait to reward their falling over whenever we went near them. At one point I thought he was getting wise to it as he waved their shouts away but that didn't last long. How on earth Pedro didn't get booked for getting...

Old lad walking at his pace, Somethingfishy walking at a youngsters pace by the looks of it....

To be fair I am quite a brisk walker ..either that or the time flies whilst taking in the celubrious surroundings and all the cheeky characters you can bump into around there

It goes back to the 80's marble craze when Burnley and Bacup were massive rivals. I think a few Bacup boys jumped Burnley's top lad and pinched his prize dobber.

It was a milky one at that. Stupid thing to do. Asking for trouble.

Walton Hall Park Soccer Centre. L4 9XP.
10 minutes walk...think its a fiver. Easy to get away after. Parked there for the Carabao Cup game. No issues.

I know you're not. It's certainly true. I left The Bridge about 7.20 and there was an absolutely massive group of teenagers being coralled by the police on the corner close to McDonald's. I thought they were footy fans, but then realised they weren't. I walked through them because I had no choice a...

Somethingfishy

The town centre had been locked down due to large groups of teenagers gathering for a fight. Two large gangs had arranged it. Police had special powers in force.

I'm not joking by the way.

Somethingfishy

I think the thing that makes it the most galling is that it is totally one way. Where is the punishment for the incompetence of the referees because a letter of apology..especially more than once... just doesn't cut it.

Somethingfishy

From where I was in the JHU I don't think he dived. He tried to do one of those fancy turns where they flick the ball the other way and change direction in one movement and he fell over the ball...just as O' Shea ran past him. No contact at all. I'll need to watch it back but it looks like another i...

Ipswich were one of the best teams to visit the turf last time

They were..and they weren't even in our division.

Somethingfishy

Southampton looking slick and Ipswich a yard too slow to everything.

Somethingfishy

He'll be overpriced..as all players in this country tend to be. We'll likely be shopping abroad again in my opinion.

Somethingfishy

Sunderland look as ordinary as it gets. Iffy at the back..non existant midfield and have zero flair and creativity. Severely declined since last season and a very very ordinary squad (Jack Clarke aside...and he won't be there next season)

Somethingfishy

Their losses have doubled. So if this current upcoming charge is to do with this can we then expect a bigger points deduction? Or is that too simplistic a view?

Somethingfishy

This is like watching paint dry.

Somethingfishy

Technically they're all behind the goal. :) There are 158 seats in length. So 79 should be bang in centre of the goal. But it's probably not. https://aviewfrommyseat.co.uk/venue/Bramall+Lane/BL2/ This site shows that seats in the 90s and 100s are behind the goal. Very useful site to help navigate t...

He was at Rishton in 2012 and 13. 47 league innings, scored 1937 runs, highest score of 121no. Bowled 700 overs and took 136 wickets. Best of 10 for 34. Purely on face value stats wise i think he seems a better fit than the pro we had lined up initially....and he's been around the league before so ...

Somethingfishy

I hope they get enough points to stay up,then the Venkys put them into administration and with the points deduction they get relegated . The snowball's revenge. Nah the best outcome will be for them to get relegated then after the court case in August they go into admin. Why settle for one relegati...

Have you seen photos of the pitch? I think they have plans to put a 4g down in the closed season. There's a serious problem with a drain on the south stand side of the pitch. They have a backlog of fixtures, don't think another call off would do them any favours. I had a ticket for this game on the...

The constant popping up and poor planning of roadworks is getting beyond the joke but anyone complaining about the state of our roads needs to head over to Preston.

Anyone used the tram system in Sheffield? There is a large park and ride at Middlewood. Its not far off Hillsborough on the road in and looks a good option perhaps? Saves driving right in.

I think 400 of the 461 were in the clubhouse today :D Was understandably rammers. Padiham raced into a 4-0 half time lead yet strangely West Didsbury looked decent when they got going. Padiham just a bit too quick for the West Didsbury defence. By the second half the pitch was heavy and a few subs b...

Does this make us a better team than Freiburg? Going off the logic used by those wanting to attack the club using other clubs it does?

Somethingfishy

If Szmodics picks an injury up at any point of this run in they are screwed. They'd be more or less down now without him.

Somethingfishy

No we're worse because they are above us Our only home win was against them and it was a 5-0 hammering. Tells you all you need to know about them. We've a better squad with heaps more potential at the level below than their team of more or less journeymen. Generally accepted by the wider media that...

If you think the thread is shite then ignore it and let it die / or be a bit more open minded VK may state he is improving and learning.

Just think who Forest are owned by. Marinakis. The guy who stormed the referees room at half time in Athens during our game with Olympiakos. That second half performance from the referee that night was bizarre and very one sided. He came down from his box today to be at the touchline at the end. Up ...

Team sheet - see if Vincent finally swallows his pride

Performance - no more cowardly displays

Result - doesn’t matter, we’re already down

Totally agree with all this. Result is irrelevant now and will only likely come if the other two have happened anyway...unless we somehow fluke it.

Somethingfishy

There were that few thrown I wouldn't be surprised if the culprits don't get picked out by CCTV and chucked out

As usual.... a pathetic attempt at a protest. Tinpot to the core

He's not a bad player don't get me wrong but he's not shown anything yet to suggest he is going to be anything special either. A bog standard Championship player.

He's seen some black holes in his time buy I'm not sure he'll have experienced anything quite like Blackburn before.

He will probably want to confirm the existence of worm holes afterwards..such is the step back in time he will experience.

Somethingfishy

Stay..give him the chance in the Championship. Can't think who else better suited to get us up and do we want to risk even more destabilisation?

Somethingfishy

I guess he just needs to get lucky with a manager..give him little to no money to spend then he can walk off with any profits the said manager manages to miraculously generate. Good gig.

I'm coming in from Norwood Junction so looks like the Victory club rather than the Railway Telegraph for me. It's a fair walk from Norwood Junction and on the opposite side of the ground near Thornton Heath station is the Telegraph.

Somethingfishy

It was cringeworthy. Totally amateur and badly thought out. I said to the guy in front of me I didn't know which was worse the first half or the half time entertainment. He said well we've got the second half yet as well. Oh what little did we know.....

I don't give a toss about VAR going against Blades we want Brighton to get a bagfull and Manure turn up at Luton .

As if it really matters to us now.

A ball doesn't have to go forward for an offside offence to be committed.

Nevertheless it came off a Brighton player. Not long ago that would have mattered...and now because he didn't mean it it doesn't count. Another ridiculous rule that is open to subjectivity.

Somethingfishy

The problem with VAR isn't the concept. It is the absolute clowns that are using it.

Somethingfishy

When did this deliberate action nonsense enter the rules? It comes off a Brighton player and that is the only time it goes forward whilst Osborn is in an offside position. Absolutely ridiculous.

Somethingfishy

The 5th goal....caught completely from a throw in just summed the concentration and effort levels up. Just seen it again on MOTD and it doesn't look any better.

Just bought my tickets online and instead of collect/post it simply says ‘fulfilled at ticket office’ on my email, and didn’t offer a collect/post option during postage. Anyone have any idea what this means?

They are digital and will be emailed to you.
