Most kids now speak like inner city gangstas. I'm proud of my rhotic Lancashire accent. Its authentic if nowt else.

It's been a bizarre afternoon in Blackpool. Lots of conflicting information, even from eye witnesses.

If Foz is being prevented/advised not to go I kinda feel sorry for him here. Would he have been likely to play, as in is he a first team contender? I would hope him missing the AFCON isn't detrimental to his mental health. I'm sure there are people more qualified than me at the club dealing with thi...

This is theft, and I would hope it's investigated as vigorously as all other disorderly events in the ground.

My seat is two away from the dividing barrier next to the large gap between the fan's, also right behind my seat is the row to the walkway to the gate the police and security staff use into the no man's land bit, this guy with the cap was right up against the gate on the barrier within 1 metre of m...

I THINK 46XY Nuns are called Monks-so we have had them for generations-long before female refs

Yes, but I want to be a nun. I identify as female. That's cool, isn't it?

groove

What's with the ripped socks? A number of our players today have their socks torn at the rear, on the calf muscle. Is there any particular reason for it?

groove

Berge for me. He puts us on the front foot, makes things happen. Doesn't look out of place in this division.

groove

She had a decent game.

groove

As I alluded to yesterday: There's a chronic shortage of referees. (40,000 in UEFA affiliated leagues alone according to official stats) Since they use the same rulebook, there's absolutely nothing that prevents a female from refereeing a match in the same manner and - de facto - equally as effecti...

You must miss the 19th century, when men were men and women stayed at home.

I miss the days of women with wombs, and men with penis's.

groove

I think the referee had a decent game. Handled the game very competently.

groove

I think you may need to reconsider who is being brainwashed. The likes of me and you are too old to be brainwashed in all honesty. They don't really waste their time on us because we'll be dead in 20 years. We are more the observers now. Watching either nonchalantly and unaffected, or aware and dis...

What does ’ Because of people like you our society is crumbling. You just bend over and take it in the a**e.’ mean? It means you just accept everything because the man on the telly told you. You don't question anything. You're being brainwashed by a woke media agenda. An agenda that undermines our ...

groove

Really hope she has a good game - My only question is has she gone through the rigours of reffing in the football league and the championship? Or just been chucked in to the PL? If she has and it’s a process then brilliant - if it’s chucked straight in then that’s a different matter. She has refere...

I mean, it does come across like you’re quite fragile.

The whole world is fragile. I'm just aware of it.

Like the vast majority I wish her all the best, since it would appear that there will be a good number who would like to see her fail. (The analogy - by the way - is irrelevant, since she doesn't need to match a male "physically" if her positioning and judgment are sound. There are some excellent f...

groove

Hi groove, have you slipped into a time warp? It's now 2023, not 1921 when the FA used the "reasoning" you are quoting to ban women playing football. Other than physical differences, which is why men and women often compete separately in sports, there are no reasons why we need to reserve some jobs...

I would never agree with that.

The fragile masculinity on show here is quite breathtaking. Ahh right. Because I'm a traditionalist and don't agree with the demasculation of football, and society in general, I must be fragile.

80% - Virgil van Dijk has the best aerial win rate of any player in the Premier League this season (min. 30 contested): 78% - Dara O'Shea (45/58) 77% - Kristoffer Ajer (24/31) 75% - Thiago Silva (30/40) 74% - Joël Matip (28/38) He just needs to figure the rest out This could be really handy if we m...

groove

Is that a fact? I thought there was, and there certainly appears to be a shortage of capable ones based on recent experience. Not to the extent of having to recruit females to do the job. This isn't being done because of a shortage. And if we're going down the road of capabilities and the oft quote...

groove

Should be nowhere near the men's game. I see no need for it at all. There isn't a shortage of male referees. Virtuous box ticking bull****. Its just another ploy to demasculate the game.

It’s been the narrative for the past 18 months Tony. From the “ A New Era” graphics on the scoreboard v Luton, the covert criticism in the documentary and yesterday’s lack of a fitting tribute. Corporate machiavellianism. It's a really unpleasant part of the game nowadays. Well, by the game I mean ...

Glory hunting is one thing…

Paying decent money to watch us get battered every week in the hopes that a few develop so the owners can sell them for a decent profit is another.

Fair point mate

I just worry about losing a high percentage of the fan base. A heard a lot of people towards the end of the Dyche era saying they wouldn't be renewing their ST because they had got bored with the style of play and poor results. The sacking of Dyche, new owners and VK was enough for fans to give it ...

groove

I think most of us are accepting that we just aren't good enough. But calls for a new manager are ridiculous. We won a trophy in emphatic fashion just 8 months ago. I don't want us to be another Watford. I'm sticking by VK.

groove

I was in JHU but at the cricket field end. I wasn't aware of this. I've no problem with away/neutrals in the home end if they don't take the ****. If I'd seen this I'd have weighed in and give them a crack.

Good question

The licence detector van was an urban myth. No such thing existed. As for paying the licence, get it cancelled. They don't even know your name and have no power of entry. Just be honest and tell them you don't have a TV

Good honest report as usual.

They need to fit a sensor to each seat to see which has a backside on it (this may not work in the CFS). I've given up trying to get hold of tickets as I can't get 4 together.... however on matchday there's plenty of empty seats which is annoying. It's pretty easy to count turnstile clicks. It's wo...

groove

Official attendances don't mean a thing now. It should go on turnstile clicks, actual bums on seats. But it doesn't. It counts non-attendees. Shame really, because checking the gate was a traditional part of the whole matchday experience for me, wether i was there or not.

She's left some big boots to fill.

Did they find it in the bin?

groove

Koleosho's final touch was awful. The ball was well on its way out of play when there was contact. If his final touch was a bit more deft, or he had the ball at his feet, it's a penalty.I think the ref got it right.

groove

I'm not so sure it was a stonewall penalty. LK's touch was awful and he'd never have got the byline if he'd stayed on his feet. LK knew this and awaited the inevitable contact. If it's a better touch by LK, it's a penalty.
