Southgate previously selects experienced players not playing or out of form, for qualifying & tournament games, and gets criticised Southgate now selects uncapped players, for playing regularly and having good a season, for a couple of meaningless friendlies, and gets criticised He really can’t win...

I'm one of the few who still defends Southgate, but Anthony Gordon?!! "England squad: Anthony Gordon and Jarrad Branthwaite receive first call-ups - BBC Sport" https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68564319 I’m not overly worried about the AG selection, it’s his reliance on the likes of Maguire, Hen...

How’s that going?

bobinho

Sorry Brian, or is it John? Roger? I’ll go with Roger…

bobinho

Is there anyone still listening to these?

bobinho

Anything from Queen…

But to absolutely nail it, and to win thee thread outright, pick any line you want from the absolutely banal bohemian rhapsody.

bobinho

It is Dean windass.

3-1 Burnley now, and here’s something I can’t remember saying… a superb finish from Damien Matthew.

bobinho

Bradford city hit the post, the clarets go up the other end and score. 2-1 to the claret veterans.

bobinho

Half time. Burnley shooting uphill in the second half, and for those of you who know Holt House, know that’s gonna be hard work.

bobinho

1-1. Windass showing his class with a deft finish.

bobinho

1-0 to the clarets, somewhat against the run of play. Payton with the goal.

bobinho

Bob - You can't be serious! :o Watched the botherers v newcastle game Pete… they looked like they had a game plan, and carried a bit of steel about em, and as we all know from our recent past, it’s amazing what you can achieve when set up like that. Especially against a side who run out of ideas on...

bobinho

It’s also important to remember not to click and comment on the subjects you have no interest in….

I’d love ‘em to go down, for no other reason than my tick counter continues… currently wouldn’t fancy our chances v them at the moment.

If the council doesn't put a statue up to honour him they are not fit to represent Burnley. Been saying this for years now… every day that goes by without this happening is a blight upon our town council. The guys truly world class…. If he was from Yorkshire, there’d be a street in every town in th...

Should I stay or should I go now? If I go there will be trouble, if I stay it will be double. Should I Stay Or Should I Go? from the bafflingly overated The Clash I thought that for a long time….. then I took some time out to actually listen and pay attention. All I can say now, is WOW!

There's actually plenty of meaning in that song, even though it sounds like nonsense lyrics. Nearly all lyrics are inane. We attach deeper meaning to them because of our emotional attachment to the music. Oh, and Bob Dylan didn't deserve the Nobel Prize for Literature. I’m sure there is plenty of m...

AJ didn’t break sweat If AJ catches ‘em right, there’s a good chance they are going down. It’s when they have grit, determination, stamina and a strong jaw that AJ struggles to believe. If he catches them with what he knows are his best shots, and they DON’T go down, you can almost see his heart cr...

That’s excellent.

bobinho

White shorts, hooped socks.

Alternatively, white shirts, white socks.

Maybe a modern take on the V shirt from the seventies. Ground breaking was that…

bobinho

Ahh that’s very sad. I only really knew her through my mate Sam who sat with her. Been on the bus with her a few times too, and enjoyed her company on the few occasions I went with Boundary…RIP

bobinho

Is this the Linda that used to sit next to Sam?

bobinho

We are shopping in the basement. Our terrible season and the dropping of almost everyone who got us over the line won’t have done anything to fill potential new players with confidence in coming here. It's really irrelevant who we want or like, VK will have his targets, and if last summer is anythin...

Spending all that money to install “safe standing” into a stand where everyone stands anyway…

save the money, give it Vinny for a new winger.

I was told about a year ago they wanted to put standing in the CF, but it's not a given the CF stand gets a safety certificate every year.

If they carried out the inspection on match day, it would never be granted based on the carnage on the concourse…

Not a chance they increase the price now after the non attendees on Sunday.
It would be business suicide.

If up to 4/5k didn't turn up when they already paid. They aren't renewing with a price increase.

Which non attendees on Sunday? Place looked pretty well full to me - surprisingly so.

bobinho

4-0 up, yeah let’s have a look at him….

A luxury player - not the type to have in the trenches.

bobinho

Southgate will find a way of nullifying the threat these lads present…

Not really that stupid, when your 28 seconds in and clinging on for a point you have to take one for the team

Take one for the team? He was about to take a throw in, he wasn’t bearing down on the keeper in a one on one…

Or whoosh…. You decide, I’m easy with either.

bobinho

I think we are clutching at straws to find some enjoyment if we are focusing on them getting relegated whilst we stink out the premier league and look likely to finish rock bottom I disagree. I don’t think we are clutching at straws at all. We know we are gone…. That lot going as well makes the lan...

It’s a bit cloak and dagger, a bit snidey, and it’s only allowed because no one really thought they’d need to write a rule about it because no one thought a club would employ these sort of underhand tactics. Really, it’s just cheating. Exploiting every loophole they possibly can in order to stay in ...

You don’t need to be a body language “expert” to get an idea of someone’s mood or character, or even “where they are” at any particular moment. This isn’t mythical or a new age science. You can see it every day in all walks of life - people use it every day in all walks of life. Anger/frustration/sa...

Yes, all the best to Ben for his recovery.

You would like to think he would get a good reception after 10 years at the Turf but you never know … I mens Dwight McNeil should have been applauded but for some inexplicable reason booed every time touched the ball .. Quite simple really imho…. Ben Mee was an outstanding player for us - put his b...

First, do no harm. A fine mantra to follow.

We need to requalify what “harm” means in this situation.

bobinho

Very sad, always came across as a really nice fella. Saw them at the mechanics a few years ago… very good together, I bet Si is absolutely gutted. RIP

Probably was….

Howling here…. Cheers swizzle

As for the subject, yeah it should be an option. Surely a civilised, intelligent society could manage to make it work, with zero chance of abuse?

And therein lies the problem with it.

Someone told me Astley had resigned but I said he’d never have given Stoke up.

Or let them down…

Everything else is inevitable.

Let’s not forget, the last thing the PL and the bigger clubs in it want is a level playing field.

We might want it to be a fair contest, but they don’t.

bobinho

Nobody more surprised than me to see Trafford start the season for us, especially v Man City. Maybe i shouldn’t have been considering how much we paid for Trafford…. Not sure anyone in the bottom half of the PL could afford that money for a second choice keeper… he’s made mistakes for sure, what I’m...

bobinho

You just know they'll get 4 points deducted on the second charge, making this whole thing a farce. Might be another six…. That way it “looks” consistent, but in actual fact, the second charge is only 2, thereby giving the PL a real chance of keeping Everton and their lovely new ground front and cen...

Didn't say he'd said it, but that's how it seems. Why else would it be.

My point is that it isn’t “how it seems”. For that to be the case, Muric would have to have played, and made the similar mistakes you state he has. Neither of those two things have happened.

bobinho

I’m interested to hear more of the “Muric isnt in the team because of similar mistakes” tale….I’m just wondering where that’s come from? Can’t imagine VK saying that, if he has, I’ve missed it.

bobinho

I just hope we go down showing some fight, desire and pride. It might put us in a better place for next season. Me too, but we are hoping against hope. We are leaderless…. Brownhill is supposed to be the captain…. He’s a mouse on the pitch. Take the Ramsey injury break against Arsenal. All the Arse...

19th in the country, we have had a really really poor season but we are nowhere near 'pathetic'. We are only 19th in the country based on the fact we can’t play anyone in the league below. Based on what I have seen so far this season, I reckon half (possibly more) of the championship sides would wa...

The book is a pressie for my ma-in-law, as she was an Imp regular and is always telling me about who she saw there. I’m actually looking forward to having a read before handing it over.
Thanks George.
