Fifteen years ago or so I managed a kids football team for Brierfield Celtic. Pre season we were due to play a friendly match against a team from Padiham but were struggling to find a pitch.However the Manager of our opponents suggested we could play on a very rough grassed area which now comprises ...

Looks like Brownhill is likely incoming. A decent player at that level at a decent club. But I cant help but feel if we keep signing championship players we will end up in... well the championship! We signed the best Championship player from West Brom, Derby, Middlesbrough and none of them have imp...

As the Queen and Duke approach the end of their lives, is it almost time to remove the Monarchy? I’ve no criticisms of them. It really is a nonsense to believe some people are born to rule above us. Is it time to become a truly modern country? Probably never be truely free of them. They have spent ...

See the point you are trying to make. My point concerned Corbyns integrity and the lack of it with Austin. His position involved such a volte-face and timed to do the Labour Party the most harm and so on reflection it was difficult to come to any other conclusion. Perhaps the word sweetner would hav...

Is that you JC? Ian Austin is who I would describe as a decent and Honorable, as well as an honest man.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iaide-nrOJc Austin is lower than a rattlesnakes belly and has an axe to grind. Despicable character with no morals who has probably taken a bung. Not fit to lace ...

Regardless of your political allegiance Corbyn is a decent and honorable man. The Tories have tried and failed to dig the dirt on him for decades and failed miserably... hence they resort to mis truths, half truths and lies to try to denigrate the man. The more informed amongst us recognise this but...

Sadly Corbyn has never been a man of peace, he has always taken sides, always for the oppressed never for the oppressor, just as long as the oppressor isn’t a socialist. Hence the support of his one time friend Galloway for Sadam and Iraq, why he has been against military action against Socialist G...

Yes you believing Corbyn did anything to help the peace process in Ireland.

That’s an alternative universe you live in.

Corbyn was promoting peace years before it became fashionable. The evidence is there if you care to take your head out of your arse. Second thoughts.. leave it where it is.

Wonder how many homeless he invited to his mansion for Xmas Dinner?

Corbyn is a manipulated facist brainwashed into believing he could bring about a revolution. His right hand man McDonnell was far more dangerous, a dictator in the making. Their stance on Brexit showed them for exactly what they are - manipulative. They shunned democracy. There's so much that is wr...

What? He’s neither honest nor decent. He’s a terrorist sympathiser and an agent of a foreign power. He’s a buffoon who thought the honest decent people of the United kingdom would buy his lies and false promises and he was rumbled. Proper sussed. Not suggesting for one minute that Johnson isn’t wha...

‘An honest and decent man’

Do me a favour.

‘What’s not to like?’

Quite simply, him.

I tried to do you a favour. It's up to you whether you listen.

thomaspaine

Utterly and totally the most cringeworthy thing I've seen for quite a while. If anyone is taken in by that, they need their head examined. Not just delusional, the man just has to be demented. He's an honest and decent man unlike that serial liar and cheat Johnson. The Christmas message was apt and...

They actually interviewed one of the people manning the food bank bins ....

I think the new corner stands, while needed, make it increasingly cold in the Longside upper due to the wind having nowhere to escape to. Don't think I've ever been as cold at a home game as I was on Saturday. That is all. Really!! I think I've heard it all now. When there's nothing to whinge about...

The best place to me in terms of %age of viewers would be front of the CFS roof - a la the original White Hart Lane. If only we had a few grand to achieve it. The best place would be on the roof of the second new development. More people would get the benefit although wherever they are situated som...

On tv now that the 350 million on the side of a bus was a lie. Can someone tell me why? We still haven't left yet. Are these people really claiming that this would/could have been introduced the day after the referendum? The Tories have really excelled themselves in this pre- election period with t...

Great article which shows the club in a positive light. If there are any whingers and moaners still out there ( and there will be a few lurking, for when we have a bad run no doubt ), then I hope they read and digest this critique for when said bad run occurs. Hopefully they will hold their tongue o...

Never, I dont walk around with trash stuffed in my pockets. If I have some rubbish it goes in a bin and if there's no bin around it gets chucked on the floor.

Tore my ACL with a 70% tear ten years ago ,when I was 50. The irony was I did it when coaching kids football having played football for 40 plus years. Physio said that I would never play again. Didn't have full reconstruction but remedial work and meniscus repair. After Physio, Hydrotherapy and plen...

Nobody should be surprised. Johnson has a history of telling lies and being deceitful. The Supreme Court have issued a damning verdict today and its a wonderful victory for democracy.

He made his bed so he should lay in it. Nobody to blame but himself although his parents should take a long

If you seriously thought he got nothing wrong then you have a problem yourself. I show referees no lack of respect but I thought he was appalling. And I’m not in the Bob Lord stand either.

Operational side of the club had a bad day. Fans soaked awaiting the opening of the JH turnstiles. Eventually opened a handful well after 2pm and had to rope in stewards to man them. No idea what has happened to the usual turnstile staff. Not one to criticise but leaving hundreds of fans waiting ou...

Just when you think it couldn't get any worse with the election of Boris Johnson as Prime Minister by 100,000 or so Tories.

Is it? I'd love to see many of our 'top' professional footballers play at that level for 2/3/4 hours or more. And then in many cases having to do it all again the day after. Footballers can't play 3 hours a week it seems without having to be 'rested'. Tennis (along with pro cycling) ranks among the...
