The two newer stand are probably the ones that we should be pulling down and rebuilding to be fair. They were off-the-shelf and cheap. Part of the reason why there’s been a hold up the latest developments. There is ample land behind the James Hargreaves Stand to build a brand new grand stand with p...

Its hard to not put it down to one of two reasons: 1) They cant be bothered 2) They can't be sure they are competent enough to do it Either way, you have to say it is pathetic for a club in its 3rd consecutive season as an EPL club. I don't enjoy having a go, but things like this leave me exasperat...

What is the reason 2br/RL don't cover the home games? I presume it's to suck fans into paying for a crap service like ClaretsPlayer? 2BR don't cover games because they refused to pay the same as Radio Lancs (they previously paid nothing but the club decided they weren't in the business of giving th...

I not sure I am. You seem to be saying that Bond shouldn’t be played by a black actor as he’s presumably described (using words) as white in the source material, but it’s ok with Deadshot as the only way we know he’s a white character is the pictures of him which make up the source material. That d...

They're better as long as they're hydraulic. Anyone who tells you other wise either hasn't ridden them or doesn't like them because of looks.

What exactly was the point of trialing showing live games via Clarets Player against Preston exactly?

Well, I think the problems with that trial is why they're not streaming it.

What if the first James Bond was cast to a black actor and we are here, now, discussing the merits of changing to a white actor - would there be the same objections or support for the change as there are for changing from white to black? for me - its a fictional character and can be portrayed by an...

So they perform their function as a vacuum cleaner better than any other vacuum cleaner, as I said. Well, no because the best bagless vacuums will pick up dust just as well, if not better, as a bagged vacuum so it comes down to the other factors. The improvement in air quality is due to the dust re...

Presumably because there's not a clear written description of the cartoon character. There is a clear written description of James Bond.

Isn't James Bond supposed to be a codename, and as such not tied to a specific character type? Elba would be a great James Bond James Bond is a specific person and how he looks is well established in the books (and he doesn't look like Daniel Craig either) so on that basis Elba wouldn't be a great ...

I can't comment on their fans but i'm getting cheesed off with clubs casually writing off their debts and then splashing the cash.

How? 1 mile is 1.61 kilometres, if he ran 10 kilometres, then he covered 6.2 miles. If someone else covered 6.5 miles, then they must have run 10.5 kilometres.

Dyche is a clever guy, not as clever as he thinks he is, but still, a clever guy.

SD has made it quite clear that the EL will not be to the detriment of the PL. TThe Aberdeen games were “competitive friendlies” - great for getting the first team up to speed for the season.
