Berge doesn't make my team.

Kalamazoo?

Poor Sheena.

dougcollins

Nah, they'll get away with it. Always do.

dougcollins

I hope we're not going to be quoting the Forest goal in support of Berge in January.

dougcollins

Forgot about Vitinho, that could be an interesting choice.

dougcollins

You can say that again.

The worst part of winning the Championship is having to play in the Premier League the season after.

Yep. But the problem is, we don't want a relegation.

Are these teams which we think Kompany will pick or teams the poster would pick?

Well, it's unlikely VK will opt for Muric so it's very much posters' pick.

Brighton's attitude generally is to keep people away if at all possible. They ban sharing of season tickets, with a half-season ban for anyone caught out. So if for example father can't take child to the match for any reason, and mother takes child instead, then all three of them get a ban. I remem...

Terrific save. Not sure any of the results would have been different with him in the side, but I wonder if he would add more composure to the defence.

Which could possibly have had an effect on the results?

dougcollins

I'd really like to see him back next game.

But I think Vincent will be stubborn over this one.

They announced on the game against Spurs at half time, that the away kit was based on the light shone on the pitch from the floodlights, with the third kit based on the floodlights themselves.

I think they are reaching

It's OK, mushroom season is upon us.

Non!

It would be interesting to know if it would have sold out if everybody had played fair, not borrowing points etc?

dougcollins

Ref has been lenient so far, Wales seem to have too many with too much to say.

dougcollins

The more people that apologise, the more meaningless it becomes.

First live game I ever saw was Park Avenue v Fulham.

Kevin Hector was playing for BPA.

dougcollins

Well, technically he received a yellow card in the 3rd minute which was upgraded to a red 8 minutes after that.

But you're right in that he was missing from the game from the 3rd minute.

dougcollins

Craig Pawson never added up.

Maddison taken off, didn't look the same player who ripped us apart last week. Just shows how much space we gave him.

Must have been the three occasions when he should have been in on goal had he been able to control the ball. Really poor.

We need one.

Another Joey.

One of those ex Claret strikers that everybody liked - but, as with Juke, the stats are less than impressive.

Though not which year.

I don't know what's going on but I've clicked on about three or four threads today where I'm genuinely struggling to understand what's going on, and I'm like, am I having a stroke or something? because people are posting words and sentences but my brain isn't picking any of this up. It feels like j...

Will it be just the Bob Lord open like the old Central League days?

Am just watching JJ on the telly from last night and he was on about his caps and was reading this

I watched that, and assumed the same!

Thought it was pretty decent.

When I supported United we always played Wednesday.

Ok.

Is that relevant?

dougcollins

Do Luton usually play Wednesday? Asking as I don't know.

I know we do Tuesdays when at home.

Possibly the most bizarre post I've ever read on here.

You've really not been coming on here long enough.

dougcollins

Tomorrow, sorry.

dougcollins

I was probably in a minority frequenting the 'Coach and Horses' but it was great having a pub so near to the Turf that was rarely rammed. I generally only drink Guinness so that wasn't an issue.

dougcollins

Sofa so good.

dougcollins

Premier Inn prices have doubled since last year.

Difficult in Burnley as there is very little creditable competition.

Talbot is a big loss.

Same for the Sparrowhawk.

Add to these the recently closed Rifle Volunteer.

There has been no obvious change to The Talbot, but there's something going on at The Sparrowhawk - lit up like a Christmas Tree when I went past the other night.

dougcollins

You would assume not.

dougcollins

Plays against Son again tonight.

Wales v S Korea friendly.

dougcollins

Is it too late for the begging letters?

dougcollins

For when we start the Forest game without a recognized left back: We love Vinnie Kompany, He'll never get the sack! We are Burnley FC, We play with no left back! We came up from the Championship, We might be heading back, But we have 15 wingers, So attack, attack, attack! That made me laugh, nice o...

dougcollins

The point of the inverted fullback is that they stay in midfield only briefly out of possession, that is fairly well recognised on various coaching blog sites. In possession it allows the wingers to go high and wide while the enhanced midfield makes the short progressive passes, which City like to ...

Strange that actually playing 5 at the back is leaving us far more open than when we played 4 at the back

Because the bit that destroys you is midfield.

dougcollins

Yep, it really isn't a good idea. Defender tight on the touchline with nowhere to go and the ball on the air long enough for the press to arrive simultaneously with the ball.

Maddison's goal a direct result.

dougcollins

Harwood Bellis definitely had PL interest bit City set a premium price tag.

While he is a good player the way Maddison conducts himself is just embarrassing goading the fans, diving and trying to get the ref to be his mate throughout the game

Can’t wait to see it not work against some of the other teams in the league

W@nker.

dougcollins

In which universe does having an 'order point' and then a different 'collection point' improve things?

Two visits to procure your purchase?

You don't have to apply too much logic to work out why this may be a problem.

Technology is often applied by people with no practical experience.

Interesting that Stuart Hunt, one of the Directors was mingling in the JML concourse at HT, asking for opinions......I didn't see him queuing for a pie !

Yeah, I spotted him, recognised from the 'Mission' documentary.

Kids on minimum wage.

Very polite guy behind the kiosk ✅ Queue was shorter ✅ An extra few kiosks were open ✅ Asked if I wanted extra water: almost everyone was saying ‘yes’ as the cup was only 60% full ❓ Still have to put milk in whilst at the front of queue ❌ Still paying 20p more for an inferior product to last season...
