Had a look through the counties results, Droylsden played their first competitive game since 2000 which had a crowd of 955. The club folded during the first lockdown. I think the IoM tourist board might subsidise travel and accommodation for the opposition. We were going to go when Ramsbottom play, ...

Are you sure that photo is from yesterday? Yes it was. I think the club tweeted yesterday morning advising fans without tickets to turn up early. I believe they were queuing from 1.30pm to get in. The BBC North West reporter, can’t remember his name, was there and there will be a feature on the Mon...

I recall Stan being annoyed at Warnock when he reported wore a Sheffield United tie to work at Bury and thought that might have been the spark. More realistic is that most people develop a dislike for Warnock after their first meeting with him. :lol: When Warnock was manager of Bury, he did his pos...

Took 5 wickets in 6 balls (including hat trick obvs) in an under 18s game, bowling absolute filth too.

I probably couldn't cook a roast dinner like Delia Smith, but if she came at me with garlic on my weetabix I'd tell her she'd lost her mind. Not being of a particular profession doesn't prohibit a layperson from having views on its practitioners. Wout Weghorst is unbelievably shite. All national te...

How on earth has this thread turned into petty arguments? It's pathetic, nothing other than pathetic which is ruining this message board. Standard CT, I opened the Nottingham thread yesterday to find out probably 90% of it was nothing to do with Nottingham. I rarely open many threads these days due...

Remember it well, aged 7! Sat in the main stand, us kids were banned from having any cans of pop as there was going to be no going to the toilet or we would have lost our seats (lines painted on benches). Lost 1-0, bit of a controversial goal , think Stevenson dropped a shot that was judged to be ju...

I think there's a lot of behind the scenes trouble at most non league clubs. When clubs are run by volunteers and players have agents, dragging every last penny out, it's not a good mix. That certainly won’t be the case at Rammy, cannot for a moment think that the chairman would entertain an agent....

Do they retain the same badge and all of the old trophies then?

That might depend upon whether or not the previous owner sold them.

NL Claret

Yes, quite a few. I learned while I was home, been a lot of behind the scenes trouble at Rammy Utd over the last few years. It's the same old sht Barney. It won't change. The problem was not getting rid of the previous manager at the start of season. The squad of players had no quality for that lev...

Most Rammy fans are Bury fans too. Be a bit weird that. Like Burnley playing Padiham.

Some Rammy spectators are Burnley fans too.

Fair enough Ampth...cant really agree.. I feel he's a pretty ordinary bowler at test level and unlikely to be a major game changer in an ashes series. I think Swan is the guy we've yet to properly replace. Stats say that Moeen Ali properly replaced Swann. Moeen Ali’s strike rate in Test cricket is ...

Greenmount gone big again.
443 for 8
Pro Snyman 269* from 139

Bad toss to lose.

NL Claret

Think they had the entire playing surface relayed a few seasons ago, not sure if it was due to drainage issues but the outfield and square, is definitely very new.. The outfield was relayed to make it flat, in some parts it used to be a nightmare when chasing a ball as your feet disappeared from un...

It's not often I log into UTC however I have done to like Agent's earlier post. As a dog owner they are a massive part of the family and so pleased dog and owner have been reunited.

Greenmount might not be the biggest ground however it does have a very good wicket and outfield. I was there during the week, not been on for a couple of years, the place is looking immaculate.

Born in Bury, still live in Bury. Was taken to my first game aged 5 in 1977. My parents moved from Southport to Bury in the 60s and I believe my dad started following the Clarets as they were the top local side and the next door neighbour was an avid Claret.

Muric for me. He had a dreadful time at Forest last season and started very shakily for ourselves. He was trying too hard to "force" his confidence and over-complicating things. As the season progressed and we got better at our passing game, he simplified a lot of what he did and we tightened up. A...

NL Claret

I’m sure a prominent poster , after a couple of games (long enough to get a fair judgement for UTC) compared Benson to Lennon but without feet.

NL Claret

Got a few red cards as well from memory?

NL Claret

I think Muric is avoding being sprayed with Alcohol as a lot of Muslims do, Toprak Razgatlioglu(spelling) in British Superbikes moves off the podium before the other riders spray the champers. I think you could see Zaroury doing that at Boro. Think only only Zaroury and Al Dakhil were the only ones...

Referee was very inconsistent with his use of the yellow card. Didn’t think Brownhill’s was worthy of a yellow card, as mentioned above Dolan should have been booked for the foul on Taylor to stop him advancing out of defence because it was the 2nd time he had committed that offence in a short space...

Don’t do player ratings however the impact that Jack Cork had on the game……….another great substitute by VK, I’m sure Cork was given some orders and carried them out.

A few seasons back watching the cricket before the Bournemouth end of season game a bloke in a suit sat next to me, we got talking and it turn out be Guy Havord who was working for sky. We spoke about radio lancs and he said Burnley was a much more hospitable club to deal with than them lot down the...

The same paper that had us plummeting lower than Sunderland after last season’s relegation.

And the top tier of the other end , desolate, the place of misery.

It’s still a really poor result for them lot, considering how difficult their run in is. Cov, PNE, us, Millwall and Luton still to play.

If Boro’s was a pen then so was the Brownhill one, overall a decent performance by Bond.

NL Claret

Don’t do player ratings.

Maatsen,not always been a fan of him, seen a 4. Really? A few poor passes , yes. Boro’s only attacking option was to hit long balls in his direction, he won most of them, stood up for himself well.

From the TV, there were a few borderline yellow card fouls by Sunderland players in the first half on Tella, Zaroury and Benson, just a talking to. Cullen doesn’t seem to commit a foul, yellow card. Doesn’t seem to be a ref that allows a game to have a decent tempo.

If you went to Cavtat, I would go to Dubrovnik on a boat from there.

Where has he been coaching?

He worked at Bury in the past, head of youth or possibly the community. Pretty sure he’s coached at Bury and Burnley, I’ve read his book but can’t remember!

Thanks for the advice, have booked a place in Lucker. Will go further down the coast this time and certainly a visit back to the butcher in Bamburgh.

Drive to Lindisfarne - the windiest place I've ever been to. Brilliant though.

We did Holy Island when we stayed in Bamburgh, the weather was decent for November. Stunning place, we did walk from Bamburgh up to Budle Bay , now that was windy, the wife loved it

NL Claret

Considering going to Northumberland coast for a holiday , have done Bamburgh before, found somewhere near Ashington.

I know there are a few posters from up that way, what is the Ashington / Newbiggin by the Sea like?

1982? Won on a Monday night? Delayed KO because the pitch was waterlogged and probably wasn’t fit but the ground was full. Think it was against Chesterfield.

Had we already won div 4 by the time of the Wrexham game?
