Very strange team, can't see how we are going to line up. Hopefully SD is going to surprise us and Citeh by trying something different

Good luck to Peacock-Farrel and Benson, I hope they have a great day. Can only presume Brownhill is sick or injured.

I had it again this week, again only affects my mobile.

I've never got in touch with anyone, the first time it happened I wasn't sure it wasn't a scam. Anyway after a couple of days it always sorts itself out

Bought 2 of the Lake District last time I was in Keswick, decorating the kitchen now, just to remind me of what I'm missing.

I’ll publish them after the cut off but confirm I’ve received yours.

Hi Tony
Just sent mine in, you didn't require the slot numbers again did you, as I forgot to add them

Article on Lancs Live today (due to the historical links, nothing new) because he got a goal & assist against Rotherham. https://www.lancs.live/sport/football/transfer-news/bright-osayi-samuel-continues-shine-19341355 Only Rotherham, I know, but looks decent though: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xf...

It's stupid comparing Vyds to Barnes. They play a totally different style, which requires the team to play a different style to get the best out of either of them. Against teams sitting deep where a long ball can be fought for then Bash is your man. Against a team with a high line you need pace, so ...

I wasn't intending to mock you. All I wanted was your opinion which you freely give on dementia, a disease that my family are currently going through. If a link can be proven, then it may help other families through their own journey of dementia for which the government currently give very little h...

I like the guy, but he hasn't done anything to warrant this.
It was a lot easier for him to get Leeds up, than SD get us up......So it begs the question.

Colburn_Claret

It works the other way round as well, we find it very difficult once we go behind.
I should think the same is true for every club outside the top 8.

Colburn_Claret

Very pleased with this, I was worried that he might not be happy with the amount of game time he is getting, but obviously he's settled here. I put on the Citeh score prediction thread, that I would start Vyds and Jay on Saturday, just because we need pace against their high line, and Chris isn't qu...

Smoking causes cancer, it's been proved. My wife's sister died at the age of 7 despite never having smoked.
Perhaps 6 was the number then too ?

I think in trying to mock me, you've just proved my point.
Thank you.

Why should someone or some body 'be brought to account'? I'm not denying the apparent fact that heading a football can cause dementia. The question is, should someone be held responsible for a very basic part of playing football which has been going on for a hundred years or more. This question equ...

Colburn_Claret

I'd take 0-0, but I doubt it. City play a high line so long balls to Chris Wood are a waste of time. We need real pace at the top of the pitch, so I would like to see Vyds and Jay start. Nothing against Chris, just horses for courses. If we do that and carry a threat we might avoid the constant wave...

Colburn_Claret

He is coming into the middle far too often and, IMO, has lost his dribbling confidence because of this. I don’t want Charlie going outside him. I wantDwight beating a man and putting them wonderful curling crosses in. BTW this has to be under instructions. If it wasn’t he would be told to get chalk...

Colburn_Claret

I would ask how many people with dementia have never headed a football in their lives.
This is putting 2 and 2 together and coming up 6.

20k raised so far for Pendleside hospice and BFCitC from the Happy Place t-shirts, and more are being ordered by the club. Not bad. Just read that on the club site, really good promo, and a big well done to whoever saw the opportunity and jumped in so quickly. 3 on their way to me and my 2 children.

I’ll be sending out emails later today to those who are still in. I know some have already sent in their teams for week 2. If so just ignore the email when it arrives.

Are we being informed how many fell at the first fence Tony.
The fewer the runners, the greater the excitement.

Colburn_Claret

Slagging our own players off because they are injured is really ******* sad. Do people think that they want to be injured.
Of course it's frustrating, I'm sure they are as frustrated as us. So to keep having a go at them is pathetic, and unhelpful.
They need our support, not abuse.

Colburn_Claret

Very happy, it does feel like the gloom is slowly lifting.
When you consider the players we have missed this season. The current form of the teams we have played. Our, let's be honest, poor football. To be outside the bottom 3 with a game in hand is amazing.

Colburn_Claret

Very relieved and happy they we managed to get over the line with the 3 points but couldn't help feeling that it may have been very different if Zaha had been playing. The very high percentage of games that Palace fail to get anything from when he is absent reflects that also. We still gave the bal...

It is interesting how opinions differ so much.

Colburn_Claret

I'm told they are not injured - that they just need to be assessed as do all players on return from international duty. That has to be done even more vigilantly in the current situation too. That makes a lot more sense, Brady has played fine in both outings for ROI, and didn't leave the pitch as if...

Harry never made a penny.

Yet you are massively against the muted Egyptian takeover which is surely in the same boat.......they will only make money if successful.

Thats like comparing gloss paint to fish and chips

Colburn_Claret

The way I look at it, is he only makes money IF he is successful. It also gives him a good reason to push the kids, as he hasn't you have to presume they aren't ready yet.

No problem with this.

Brady hits bar for RoI from 25yds. A cracking effort.
0-0 still.

Great effort, I hope he plays more on the front foot back on the Turf. Mind that goes for the rest of them as well.

So many problems with this England team, they all fall at Southgates door. From a refreshing start, picking young players and ditching the old, he's regressed to a manager that has his favourites who get picked no matter they are out of form, no matter that they are out of position, no matter that t...

It's hard to imagine Des, and not think of Morcambe and Wise.
Des had a great career anyway, but the jokes din't do him any harm at all.

I always think wet conditions like that show who the best drivers are rather than just those with the best cars. Schumacher, the “regenmeister”, used to excel in those sorts of conditions. For a while today, Verstappen was head and shoulders above the rest but the team got the tyre choice wrong for...

People need to stop saying won in regards to wars. You don’t win wars. You win football matches, card games, Snooker matches, not wars. The Nazis were stopped.

I put in 2 Tony, one for me and one for my lad.

Colburn_Claret

Nothing wrong with his sentiment, but why air it to the press. Sad really, I wish him the best, and most fans will understand, but at a time when the club is struggling, on and off the field, this does nothing to help.

Colburn_Claret

I know perfectly well what derogatory means. Of course he’s being disrespectful by suggesting that homosexuals are making a lifestyle choice. I agree that his disrespect is probably borne of ignorance rather than anything more sinister, but that still doesn’t make it right. Someone in his role has ...

Colburn_Claret

Yes he was showing his ignorance - and this is the kicker - while trying to explain (boasting actually) how enlightened the FA was under his leadership, how much more diverse they were than any other major UK Sports organisation, how the board was representative of British society and how they no l...

I should imagine when he hangs up his boots, he will be one of those characters that is suffering from demons.
He hasn't done himself any favours, and time must have run out for him to put things right.
From a football point of view it's quite funny, but on a humanitarian level its rather sad.

Colburn_Claret

It isn’t derogatory to say that homosexuals are making a life choice? Really? You can call people thin-skinned or snowflakes all you like but the fact is that is a highly derogatory comment, and I can’t believe anyone can think otherwise. You need to look up the meaning of derogatory. He wasn't bei...

You don’t think it’s derogatory to say that homosexuals are making a life choice? Seems to me like the game will probably be in a better place without his dated views. It isn't derogatory. Its clearly wrong, and shows his ignorance, but derogatory!! Why are people so thin skinned. Why can't they ju...

According to LiveScore the trialist who got the first was Owen Dodgson. Joined last month from Man U Academy, until Jun 2021. Only 17 years old, so a big step for him. Any idea why he's listed as a trialist on the match sheet, when he appears to be with us for 6 months at least. Or is it just my lac...

A good point and clean sheet, great to have Mee back. I feel sorry for Wood and Barnes, even the scraps are scrappy. Our service to them is poor, but I don't think keep playing the same team and tactics and sooner or later it will come right is a good strategy. We can't change the defence, and don't...

Much better team

I'd have preferred Jay to Ash, but maybe against Brighton its the right shout. Either way I'm happy.
