Millwall's game plan was to kick Tella, the ref set his stall out by not booking their CH for going through the back of him early in 1st half. Poor first half for the ref for not taking control, 2nd half easy game to referee.

Thanks NL

No worries, by look of it when we ordered Millwall tickets you don't have a choice. Hopefully should be straightforward enough, always wary though after a bad experience with easy jet at Liverpool Airport.

You set off early, Beckham's goal was 12 months earlier

Well that's 2 things I've now found out! It wasn't Huxford debut and Beckham didn't score against Wimbledon! How the mind plays tricks! It was very hot though and it was a red corsa.

He'd made his debut in January that year

Didn't realise that, can't remember him playing before the Watford game. Must have been one of those signings that went under the radar.

Remember the day well but not much of the game, my old stand out moment was Waddle pinging a long pass which looked to be going out for a throw in however he had put so much back spin on the ball it just stood up after bouncing, perfection, . was a wow moment, never seen such quality in the flesh (b...

Stayed in the Van der Valk Hotel in Eindhoven with work, one of my colleagues kept humming the theme tune, it was lost on the 30 students that were with us!

There is just no need to close it but it’s a long walk round. We usually wait until they open it. I remember about 20 years it kicked off in the ground at the end of game and the stewards outside left their post at fence with it open, everyone just carried on with their way home without any bother.

Last time we went we parked at a church just off the M5 roundabout, turn right if coming from the North, it was recommended by a WBA fan mate. After a search it is Beeches Rd Meths church. 10 -15 minute walk. It was easy to get off however we left the game with half an hour left (4-0 Monday night). ...

Another one here who has not been to Burnley for 2 and a half years, used to drink in the foundation lounge however I understand that is not an option. Might just be a couple in the 110 club.

Can you buy hospitality packages for single games ? Yes if it is Cat A or Cat B game , if it is Cat A* , mainly local games / teams with big followings (Sunderland) I think you need to have bought or will have to buy another game. Saturday is Cat A so yes you can buy for just 1 game, subject to ava...

Strange isn't it.. obviously I want us to win every week and get promoted back to where we were. But when we were in the Prem towards the end I was pretty bored of it all and skipped the odd game to go and watch non-league instead. Now we're back in the the 2nd tier, I can't wait to get on the Turf...

The walk to the ground from the station was shall we say interesting when we first played there in 1999. There was a big police escort , they forced us into an industrial estate rather than over the canal away from a pub. Would expect it will be heavily policed again however I don't expect it to be ...

Must have improved, it was crap years ago, I hadn't realised it was still going.

I'd happily take crap rather than reading through the majority of threads on here. I rarely post on here and now it has got to the point where one minute of viewing is enough for the day.

When I heard that he’d done it after about half an hour I was stunned but then remember Frank Casper playing in an FA Cup semi a week after he’d got his injury. Lukas Jutkiewicz played on with his, albeit for just a few minutes but then we saw players such as Sam Vokes & Ashley Barnes just couldn’t...

I raise you Marlon Beresford, I dont think a keeper in world football hated it more when you weren't allowed to back pass it anymore Remember an FA Cup game at home to Shrewsbury when he just picked up a back pass , think it was the first season the rule was introduced , the ref wasn't going to awa...

Only because the alternatives were Westwood or Stephens.

Then you think along these ...

Not sure if previously mentioned but thought for a large part of the season the late goal Leeds scored at TM could have been costly. A game we should have won if took our chances or simply seen the game out.

Granville Shackleton (Burnley Express) travelled on our coach to Grimsby and told us Pearce & Oghani were out and that Oghani wouldn’t play for us again. He wouldn’t say why.

Forrest fans celebrated winning the play off semi final like they had won the European Cup.

I was in my first year at Leicester Poly, had managed to get to a few away games in the second half of the season, Mansfield, Derby x2, Cardiff, Barnet and Gillingham.

Still 5-1 on my sky bet

Still 11/4 on Paddy. I think we can say Jackson will take charge on Thursday.

Again, these markets aren't a good indication.

Perhaps there wasn't a "bounce" plan?

I hadn't even heard of him before yesterday.

Bookies aren't going to open themselves up to inside info, the max stake on Paddy Power is £100. Most bookmakers not interested in these sorts of markets.

It’s all we have to go off though at the moment.

Exactly, not a lot unfortunately to go off, really dislike periods when we don't have a manager. Searching social media for scraps of unreliable information.

NL Claret

These markets are not good indicators. Bloke reads Twitter / UTC, puts a fiver on, market will change.

I'm not reading anything into these markets. If a candidate suddenly goes 1/10 you know it is a done deal. I'll never forget how I felt when Brian Laws became very very short priced.

There is basically 2 clubs / organisations however from what I'm told there was a massive divide between the two.

Wilder has gone from 6/4 to 10/11 in the last 15 minutes, and no I've not put a bet on, not interested in those prices.

It means nothing. I made a lot of money off Nuno to Spurs last year on this exact situation. Odds will fluctuate over the next few days.

It looks like Sky have closed the book on our next manager betting

Means absolutely nothing. Odds available elsewhere plus these markets are not necessarily a good indicator.

I think it suggests there is no one lined up to immediately take over.

I got one from the club about not using my ST for the last match. I haven't got a ST this year. Me too. "We've missed you recently. Help up improve Turf Moor.
