And his sidekick, the odious Durham.

My daughter is en route to Florida from Manchester. 11 am departure. In excess of 2 hours to clear security and passengers refused boarding due to ESTA issues. Utter chaos. And they have paid a lot of money for the privilege but that’s how it rolls under the current UK and US govs !! Its who owns M...

Manchester Airport - the gateway to the north west - is a shambolic mess. A real good example of rank bad management. If you manage to get through security on time to catch your plane after you've been barked at, you will at least avoid having to try find a seat in the grubby lounge. I arrived at mi...

Wasn’t aware of that and surprised I’d imagine they will address the railway at some point soon Well the MP is the leader of Northern Powerhouse. I have to laugh at all this talk of reversing the Beeching cuts. Many of the stone built bridges have been dismantled and Bocholt Way was built where the...

He is an absolute nob. That win at Anfield ans Sean Dyche have really got under his skin. Teutonic bionic prat.

Enjoyed that. Really good French team this. England did well but France quicker in every aspect.

Rovers providing some much needed respite from our problems. And they're just clinging onto a PO place as it stands. But all the teams directly below them have games in hand, so it's not in their own doing anymore. They're not going up. Two good potential derbies there next season. I hope not but i...

Stayingup

Not a concern to me. My concern is what will our fans think about us playing in the Championship. A tight division from halfway up and the way Forest disposed of Leicester in the cup some decent football to be watched.

Rawtenstall is a great day out these days!

Except the traffic is now awful it being one of the most polluted towns in UK for that reason and doesn't have a commercial railway connection.

I forgot to add, Pace etc have tried to sign midfielders across the last few windows, it's just the signings haven't been completed

Yes they thought they had the Croation lad all tied up but were let down for whatever reasons.

aujourd'hui - Le Coq contra La Rose.

Could we upset the French? I don't think so.

Stayingup

To be realistic its a really good win for Leeds. We haven't got the players to pull that off plus we're still bedding in new players.

Stayingup

Eric would have been so chuffed. God bless him.

Stayingup

It matters not what Everton do or don't do, if we approach this game in the same negative way as we did Leeds, Newcastle and Brentford, we are screwed. You can play well and get beat, that's life, but when you don't turn up for the BIG games time after time, it's pathetic. So cautious, so negative,...

A week too late for me but never mind.
The locator form was ridiculous.

Spanish form one page. UK one four pages. Sums us up. Whitty is predicting another pandemic. Hes loved moment if fame and wants more.

From Athens. Been to both. When I was down there and just prior to REM - a good band - Sweet Home Alabama was THE number. Lynyrd Skynyrd. Many of them perished in a plane crash out of Greenevill SC. The plane ran out of fuel and one who escaped the crash was shot by a farmer. Poor bugger.

New signings were most likely not done by Dyche

Dyche only has ONE team shape and if the new signings don't fit into that formation and tactics, well that's tough

Very tough when its 12 million spent!!!

Stayingup

Some people really. Did Dyche miss those chances to score? What I would ask is this. Are the signings of Maxwel and Wout Dyche signings? I suspect well maybe not. The management has work to do with Maxwel to get a team shape that he fits into.

Stayingup

Cursed with Mason.

Unfortunately leasing charges have gone up a lot this year and thats assuming you can find a car. Second hand car values have gone through the roof as well. Supply issues as with most things these days.

I like him, I think he'll be excellent. He lost his wife in 2020 so it's nice to see him doing well.

Yes it is and he seems avery decent guy. Its just that hes a big Man U fan. But to be fair he dosen't often let it show.

On Tuesday when Ben came off I had no worries at all about Collins deputising. We would struggle to get anyone better to step in for our two regulars-and he will get better Yes but I just wonder would Leicester have scored their first goal had Ben Mee been there? We were pretty static as the lumped...

Really? - Still not come out against invasion, and while he says money will be used for Ukraine conflict victims, there is no mention of whether he intends to compensate Ukrainians or families of Russian servicemen. Chelsea is about 5% of his wealth… and he is hopping to avoid sanctions… as a US di...

As a Russian, you don't get to where he's got in life and remain there without being a close friend of Putin.

He is allegedly 'distancing' himself from Putin. A very dangerous move if in fact its true. Or is it a RED Herring???

It was once said that a high % of those who were for brexit came across a bit thick

Why does it feel it has just gone higher when reading any of your posts

Oh 52% of the people in this country are thick? Wow what a comment.

Can Barnes track back?
Does he make tackles?

He didn't need to. But one thing for sure McNeils tracking back leaves a lot to be desired compared for example to Lennon.

Stayingup

Looking good is stretching it. Jay competes more in the air and if we are to continue lumping balls forward then play him. This thread is to talk about getting better with the ball on the ground that would suit Cornet and WW. Posters on here have claimed for years that Dyche would play better footb...

This is why Dwight can’t play in the middle summed up In this instance (ok he did brilliantly to get here), what way/foot do you think he took this on with(see photo)? I couldn’t believe after making that space he’s so one footed that he put it back onto his left because he’s so one footed. It’s al...

For the first time and hopefully the last. He was very poor.

He was very poor. The whole standard of refereeing in our league is so poor.

I wish McNeil, who lost his man early on when they nearly scored, but did contribute later, was as effective as Barnes was tonight.

Is he big?

i think it is childish, arbitrary and ultimately not good for the spectacle.

They all sound good though don't they!!!

Its moved around a bit as well. From Latin sounding names now to Teutonic ones. I don't recall we have had a Russian one yet.

Stayingup

The climate might just change drastically if Putin presses that button. He's threatening to if the Western Powers (oxymoron) don't leave him alone to annihilate Ukraine.

Stayingup

Leeds attack a lot and create chances. They did yesterday. But they are then open at the back and yesterday obviously didn't score despite hitting the post twice and conceeded 4. Wrong tatctics against a fast counter attacking side like Spurs.

Stayingup

MOD pundits thought it was a very clear handball as I did. He got cotrol. Why didnt the rergeree just give it? No he has to refer to VAR which takes the responsibility from him and invariably drops a clanger. The whole standerd of refereeing in this country is low. Best for the job would be ex playe...

Fact is the standard of refereeing in the English EPL is very poor.

Charlie back for me. He's been one of our better erformers during the bad times and liks very well with McNeil

4 would be good. Any more would be fantastic. They way we are playing though I am secretly hoping for seven!!! I am ever the optimist!!!
