106 days he lasted, on a hiding to nothing!

CleggHall

The title is a bit harsh particularly for those of us who live on Tyneside. The game apart, a good evening. The away supporters were in good heart and voice, generally well behaved, stoical in terms of accepting the result/poor display and, as ever, the Newcastle pubs were well worth visiting. I loo...

Jimmy McIlroy played 497 games in 13 seasons - an average, year on year, of 38 games. The same as Cork is being asked to do. Has sports science regressed so much that what was commonplace fifty years ago is impossible now? ...and Jimmy Mac played on a very muddy Turf Moor with wet, heavy, leather b...

Morgan rates Rashid, Root doesn't, that's the difference, leg spinners need the captain's trust, Rashid will always pick up tailenders.

CleggHall

Another good, honest opinion by SD, little to argue with there, we had 2 very good chances and conceded a 2nd goal after a foul on Cork.

CleggHall

Heaton 6 - could have done better with 1st goal Bardsley 5 nowt special and not an outlet down the right Tarks 5 - launched so many long balls I thought he was back at t'Latics! Mee 7 Taylor 9 - this guy gets better, our best attacker and only outlet, MOM JBG 4 poor Cork 6 tried but short of help in...

Somewhat of a homer, indecisive and let several tough tackles by N/c go including one from behind which led to the 2nd goal. Not one of the PL's better referees.

CleggHall

Trent House, Hotspur and Bodega are generally welcoming watering holes for visiting supporters.

CleggHall

Yes it sent shockwaves as far as Heywood Grammar School!

CleggHall

Pawson - a specialist at quick throw ins!

If May plays her cards right she wins, she holds all the aces. With the DUP she has a narrow majority but Labour is well and truly split ( north and south, leave-remain, anti-semites etc). The problem is May is not bright, has few friends and confidants and can't be trusted to bring home the bacon. ...

CleggHall

Great report, Dean not Deane!

CleggHall

Could easily have brandished red cards numbers 100 and 101 today but glad he didn't.

CleggHall

Was Pochetino complaining about the 4th officials assist in the Spurs equaliser? Quickly gave Rose the ball to launch a throw in 8 yards from where they ball went out of play, it's bad enough playing against XI without such helpers!

CleggHall

Pity the poor bowlers, on a hiding to nothing in this sort of cricket.

Sat in the then Sir John Hall stand in the 1990s at a Newcastle v Blackburn FA Cup tie, 1-1 draw. Newcastle equaliser at the Gallowgate end was so far away that no-one knew who had scored other than it was not Andy Cole or Ruel Fox! Turned out Rob Lee got it.
Take your binoculars on tuesday!

CleggHall

Gayle is a liability, scoring rate below Root's, can neither run nor field, wants dropping.

CleggHall

Leazes Terrace was University accommodation, hall of residence a few years ago. Chelsea supporters entered and climbed onto the roof to view the match but still couldn't see!

CleggHall

The first time Rochdale has ever been 3rd in any league table, up the Dale!

[quote=" Royboy No matter, Mac was the finest player I've ever seen in a Claret & Blue shirt by some distance and will always be remembered for his magnificent contribution to that great side that won the Championship in '59/'60.[/quote] Agree entirely Roy, us oldies were fortunate to see Mac and th...

CleggHall

A heart-breaker, there have been some downs as a Clarets supporter but Mac's sacking was a real blow, still makes no sense after all these years.

CleggHall

The fact that you are asking the question suggests that you already know the answer!

CleggHall

It is not a requirement to hold a by-election, MPs are voted in on a personal capacity by their constituents and it is unlikely that the magnificent 7 will expose themselves to a vote anytime soon.

CleggHall

The naughty little beggars!

CleggHall

Good to see but why wait for the 3rd test?

CleggHall

Is Butlins still going?

CleggHall

Denly 65 not out is playing himself into the Ashes team, good-bye and good night for Jennings, he's had many chances.

CleggHall

Back in bed for 2am Sunday morning, I admire your stamina but thanks for doing it, another excellent report which lifts the spirits.

CleggHall

Wood shows up the limitations of Broad and Anderson on overseas pitches where genuine, raw, real pace is required. I first saw Wood playing for Northumberland several years ago when he made 50 with the bat at Jesmond. Since then injuries have held him back and Root will have to learn not to overbowl...

CleggHall

Yes a converted fullback, I recall him being replaced by Reg Blore or Louis Bimpson at Rovers which didn't please the natives!

CleggHall

Thanks - this brightened my day!

CleggHall

Arsenal man through and through, forgets his roots and where it all started.

CleggHall

Safe journey home guys, should be back in Burnley by Monday!

CleggHall

My money is on Wigan, Hardaker has a point to prove and can only get better.

tim_noone wrote:Sorry but it's the Armchair for me..How Newcastle get away with putting the away fans up in the clouds is a joke.

In a stadium which hold 52,000 this is frankly ridiculous, Sports Direct Newcastle should be held to account.

CleggHall

Only 1150 tickets allocated for a local derby, ridiculous!

CleggHall

A sad little story, not always a bed of roses for footballers, injuries often around the corner, hope he has better luck in new career.

CleggHall

Yes my Nissan Note is parked outside, remind me how did the people of Sunderland vote in the Referendum!

CleggHall

Surely VAR is the "way forward" given the recent bum decisions we have suffered?

CleggHall

One of England's better away performances this, beat a strong Irish side in Dublin, a few dubious decisions by an indecisive ref but could have had a 3rd try before halftime with a better video ref.

CleggHall

Need specialist batsmen not a team of all rounders and medium pace bowlers who perform well in England but not overseas.

CleggHall

You folks born near St Helens were very lucky, I washed up in Rochdale and was condemned to be a Hornet!

CleggHall

1st half very even, 1st 20 minutes all Saints 12 pts scored, 2nd 20 all Wigan 12 pts scored, you can't get more even than that!?

CleggHall

Yet again another poor batting performance, we bat, long, deep and hopeless!

CleggHall

A nick would have been helpful there, Bairstow out lbw on review just after lunch.

CleggHall

Mondsley - no livelier than Littleborough's Hare Hill in Joel Garner's days though Gilchrist's pace there was nullified back in the 50s on a specially prepared wicket involving the use of hot cow s..t!

The key issue here is that you are in for the long haul when you invest for a pension pot. Get in young, drip feed as and when, spread your portfolio across continents and industries and you should be OK. Short term movements in the FTSE don't really matter, interest rates for savings accounts lose ...

Makes you wonder why Jennings was selected in the 1st place, Denly 32 and uncapped is hardly the future but good luck to England, they'll need it!

CleggHall

You owe it to the missus Ashington, she knew what she was marrying .... or did she?

CleggHall

An excellent report, balanced and devoid of bitterness, how do you do it after such disappointment?
