There is far more chance that we won't win another game this season than there is beating City. Miracles do happen, so here's hoping.

Before my time but saw that Brian Clough converted a centre forward to centre back in a documentary. Larry Loyd was it?

Kenny Burns

That header that went wide was a result of him having to bend so low for his head to get to the ball. The alternative was to use his right foot which of course is not an option

There's always going to be an element that want to see the west as the good guys in every respect Wile. Most would find it simpler if all the evil Russians wore black hats and the good Western guys wore white hats just like the old cowboy movies. Evil and disgusting as the Russian policy is, the ma...

Could it be possible that the Russians are holding their best weapons back, so NATO don't know what they have. If they thought this was going to be easy, they might have thought that the sheer volume of they equipment would be enough

Anybody a member?
They often post football results and league tables from years in the 80,s.The pictures are of newspapers. I don't know how to repost them onto here. What's interesting is the low crowds of the first division

Thanks for keeping the thread open Tony, it's really helpful for the techno idiots like me who don't use twitter. I don't post on the thread because I don't know enough, only what I see and read. I don't understand why there isn't an internationally agreed way of sorting out disagree ments and diffe...

Sadly as already stated, a lot of the players from the first division team that did so well under Jimmy Adamson had left. This was a team with players that had seen better days and struggled in the 2nd division, it was the beginning of the end of our youth production line that served us so well in t...

Great player, isn't he in trouble over bullying or something

He's 48 and a bit chubby, I see that he turned out for a pub team in Shropshire. I was part of a raffle. I play against former professionals at walking football but this would be a different class. I don't know how to link, it's on BBC website

It was Beardsley, Gidman did play for all 4 clubs, but not at first team level for one of them, can't remember which one

gtclaret

Played for Man Utd, City, Liverpool and Everton all at first team level. I got this question on Facebook, unusual for me to know the answer

Logically this season it would be better for us if Brentford actually survive and either Leeds or Newcastle went down. The reason being that Brentford look like a team that although might cling on this season will almost certainly drop next year, thus it would improve our chances next term assuming...

gtclaret

What result is best. I definitely do not want a Brentford win, as I think realistically they are the team that can drop into the bottom 3.I don't see Newcastle being relegated

Messi is one footed as hell. He’s a great player. Ronaldo is very two footed - he’s a great player, and one of the reasons is his left foot ability. Players are different, some are tall, short, quick, strong - being ambidextrous is something you are born with - can’t be worked on beyond a certain e...

Beckham could come inside if he wanted and make first time passes with his left.

McNeil can't ... It's not like he is just a left footer predominantly it's like his right foot doesn't exist - big difference

Exactly, its how one footed he is, and it's holding him back

gtclaret

Too one footed and slow to reach the standard we all thought he would. I would put him out on the left to provide the ammunition for the strikers. I would have thought that the coaching staff would have dealt with the one footed issue when he was younger. Too late now

gtclaret

I really hope not, but I think we have left ourselves too much to do any the small squad leaves us very vulnerable to injuries etc. It's a shame, because I think we have the basis of a decent exciting team, we are still a couple of players short

I was in town yesterday and saw a young child (maybe around 6 or 7) kicking pigeons. Her mum was talking to another woman and had her back turned. I just politely told the mum what was happening. It led to me being subjected to a barrage of abuse from them and then an older woman and I was then thr...

So pleased you all like the line up, can anyone tell of the alternative line up.

If we'd have conceded would you have still said the same based on the performance level?

I thought the performance was solid defensively but we are going to need to be much better with the ball and in an attacking sense to have any chance of staying up.

At last, some reality

To be fair Dyche has also ****** away a lot of finance that Garlick provided. It works both ways, would we be in this position if Gibson, Vydra etc… we’re actually used/effective. All managers make bad signings over a period of time. Look at some of Alex Fergusons signings. Overall SD has been very...

gtclaret

A painful lesson for the sizable, vocal group who were ungrateful for what they had when the club was well run. It was not well run, it's the very reason we are in this position. Garlicky withheld funds for Dyche to recruit players. It's the on field activity that created the wealth, not Garlick, h...

I hope you're fit for the Leicester game, Tony.

Best Wishes.

Is Tony up for selection for the Leicester game? Nothing would surprise me. I imagine he is a flying left winger, with the sort of pace and power we need, Mcneil on the bench

gtclaret

You can't compare Hutchinson to Little or Elliott. At his best Hutchinson was a far better player, he was very good when he played for us in the third tier, both Elliott and Little played for us at a higher level, so as Burnley players they were better than Hutchinson was as a Burnley player

Tony Blair absolutely disgusting.

It normally takes 1 or 2 years for a former PM to get a gong. Blair had to wait 14 years.,probably in the hope that memories fade, its also been suggested that he had a poor relationship with the Queen

gtclaret

We have won just 1 game in the first 16,we have the lowest points per game total in the country this calendar year, and some on here insult the OP for suggesting that we are dropping. Supporting the club and wanting an upturn in our form is fine, but some of you are totally delusional

We have got to win games, games in hand and goal difference is all well and good, but will mean nothing unless we start winning

Can't stand the stage managed crying

SD has always said the same things in the same way. It's the fans perception that changes. When we win he talks sense and we're lucky to have him, when we lose, he talks rubbish. I find it difficult to listen to his interviews as they tend to be repetitive

No game at this stage of the season is must win. The fact is that if we don't start winning soon relegation will be inevitable..we have only won 1 game in 12 and that is very worrying.
