As did my 2018-2019 black away top!

Falcon

My 2019-2020 blue away shirt's badge did the same!

Falcon

I'm not the biggest fan of the current badge, but for me the pre-2009 badge was awful. I don't mind the monochrome one being used in tandem with the full colour one for stylistic purposes but not as a replacement.

Falcon

Monochrome version appears on today's official Premier League Facebook post showing fixtures

Falcon

I'm still of the belief that they're just using the monochrome version of the 'main' badge for stylistic reasons on social media / merchandise.

The badge on the home shirt will be the thing that confirms/denies a change.

Falcon

And Scots would call Geordies Southern. It's all relative, I guess.

Capital punishment is something largely used only in countries like North Korea or Saudi Arabia. The civilised world has rightly discarded this horrible practise (with one very notable exception). Why would we want to slide back into medieval punishments like that, which don't even work as a deterre...

Just to make things even more chaotic they are now starting roadworks on Church Street at the bottom of Ormerod Road, going down Church St towards Ormerod Rd you can't turn right to enter Ormerod Rd, if your coming down Ormerod Rd you can't turn right onto Church St, it just beggars belief Are thes...

Cavan_Claret, Jjjack and IntolerantElf (xpert11 usernames, not sure if you're using same handles here), I've seen your applications to join but at the moment there are no teams available. If any managers stop turning up I will let you take over their teams. Otherwise, it will be just before the curr...

Cheers, thought I would give it a go, will have a look tonight when get home.

No worries.

If you want any advice or help just chuck a message on here, or in the league forum on X11.

Not sure what your handle is on here, but just to confirm I've now accepted your application to join the league.

Getting strong 'Old Man Yells at Cloud' vibes on this thread

Falcon

Let me know if you want any help or tips. It can be a bit overwhelming at first but once you get the hang of it it's quite simple to navigate.

I've just sent another 2 reminders to managers who haven't logged in for 20 days. So could be 3 teams available by this time next week.

Falcon

Hello all, league admin here. I have 3 applications in my queue (I had 4 in the queue but let ClaretDes take over an inactive team yesterday). Unfortunately because it is mid-season I cannot accept you at this moment (game doesn't let me unless there is an inactive team, or with 2 weeks left of the ...

Completely made up figures based on nothing other than speculation

City embody everything that is wrong about football at the top level.

Great side to watch no doubt about that though.

Falcon

I really like the player but it all depends on whether our valuation matches Coventry's. I suspect it won't given our 'buy low sell high' model. Separate from that, if they go up in the play-offs there's no way they'll sell him anyway unless something ludicrous comes in. If we can get him for 12-15m...

I was happy with Luton, Coventry or Sunderland, and remain ambivalent to which of the two finalists goes up. I just didn't want Boro to have any glory.

I will be watching the final next week and simply hope it's a cracking game.

1. This seemingly new trend of ridiculously bright LED lights on oncoming vehicles, which end up blinding you as they approach (or blinding you in the rear view mirror if they're behind you). 2. Parking on double-yellows, especially next to a school. 'Oh, I'll only be 2 minutes' - doesn't matter, yo...

37 as of yesterday (May the third be with you)

I turned 37 yesterday

I exercise wearing gloves in chilly weather because otherwise my Reynauds-y fingers would go white and hurt like beggary.

It's not always because they're soft, Southern wet-wipes.

Pilko and Pilkers - I'm assuming you're off here anyway.

Thanks for joining, I've accepted your applications.

Still more slots available if anyone else wants in!

Falcon

Afternoon all, New season is coming up, and as ever we are looking for new people who would like to have a go at this game. The league has been running for years but it's never a bad time to join. Also happy to welcome back any returning players who want to dip their toe back in. You can sign up at ...

Falcon

Full support of course.

How else do you effect change.

Falcon

Don't hate the playa, hate the game.

If refs are going to allow it, why wouldn't a team take advantage. I place the blame squarely at the referee's door.

Falcon

This is all very cloak and dagger.

Any reason nobody has the cojones to write what the rumoured wording is on here?

I see the Russians have bombed their own city by mistake. Incompetent doesn't cover it.

You do get access to the old bar lounge on Brunshaw Rd.
I can’t recall its original name.

Centre Spot?

I think the main point was that after a quick check for a liner's flag you can celebrate goals straight away in the EFL, rather than the nervous wait for a video ref decision so common in the Prem.

Pro: The club can continue to exist

That outweighs every con. Don't get me wrong, I have really enjoyed this season, just like that other promotion seasons. I'd love to take the PL money then just do the Champ again ad infinitum. But that's not realistic.

Of the ones in that link, if we had to revert to a previous colour scheme I think the pink and white stripes would be the most unique.

No other league team uses pink in their home shirt.

For me if we're going to have 12 groups of four then in order to stop 3rd placed teams getting through I'd simply give eight 1st placed teams a bye in the 2nd round. This would make it a nice square 16 teams in the 3rd round. Base it on their group stage record to work out which four don't get the b...

Falcon

Great news.

That is miles better than the 16 groups of three idea in that there will be no final group game colluding possible (or at least mega unlikely).

Still don't like 3rd place teams qualifying, but without a square number of teams that's the price you have to pay.

Falcon

I'm just happy that we have such wonderful strength in depth.

Whichever combo Vinnie went for I'd be confident, and that includes McNally who is getting rave reviews down at Cov.

Falcon

I really like that.

Although I'm not sure it was required it does look very nice.

That said, is it not just their old old old badge but with the lion facing the other way?

I've now listened to our entry. It seems we've slipped back into trying to enter a song that sounds like one another country would enter into Eurovision. Last year the song sounded like something that comes from the UK, but this is cookie-cutter Europop and historically we've got crap scores when tr...

Roads through Burnley (including past the Turf) are absolutely fine. M65 is just wet. Pavements could be dodgy once the snow freezes overnight tonight.
