Is he still watching my posts with his son and solicitor present? I was accused of saying Stan was a Sunday League Manager and the solicitor thought it could be classed as libellous. I then pointed out I had said no such thing, what I actually said was results such as 6-5, 4-7 and the like that we e...

I have M25 BFC which i have had for a few years. I bought another car last weekend as a weekend drive and have seen W25 BFC on the DVLA site, which i think i will buy. That gives my first name initial and surname initial along with my birthday.

Brownhil was a key component in the central midfield unit that saw us relegated in 2022 and looks likely to repeat that feat in 2024. Doesn't offer pace, power, skill to beat a man or the ability to beat either the wall or the first man from free kicks or corners. Apart from the ability to run up an...

We will never know but to me it feels like every paid signing that we've made has had the potential ROI factored in, rather than just what they could necessarily give the team from the off. And that surprises you when the owners have expertise in finance and making money and zero knowledge of runni...

We changed the wrong areas. Needed 2 full backs, a centre back, a central midfielder and centre forward as priority positions to strengthen. Strong spine of the team. We spent heavily on a new keeper, and a plethora of untried wingers in the hope that one of them would become our first 100m player. ...

Thought he was outstanding at Bournemouth. You also thought he had a good game v Spurs, when in reality he booked Cullen early on for a nothing foul then allowed Spurs players to commit 3 or 4 that were equally as bad, if not worse that all went unpunished. He also allowed Spurs players to repeated...

I think that accolade must go to the 1500 Hardy souls who went to Fulham midweek during the fuel strikes. Nobody driving down that night could guarantee getting fuel to make it back. I went to this.

Port Vale on a Tuesday night in 85/6 I think. 1-1 draw and about 40 of us on the open end.

Was it a Monday evening? I went to that game.

As much as Dyche worked wonders for us, he undoubtedly left an ageing squad with a number of players out of contract… and very little in the way of young talent ready to step in to a Championship squad. We need to make sure we’re never in that situation again and have a large talent base out gettin...

I remember our cup replay v Sheffield United in 1992. A Blades fan in the away end suffered a heart attack and he was carried out onto the sideline between the away end and the CF stand. Very difficult to focus on the game when a few rows in front of me paramedics were trying to save a bloke's life....

Had a fairly simple shot with the rest. Took on a far more difficult shot, played left handed and went round the angle of the 2 cushions to get on the black and won the frame. Watching a genius at work.

Sadly passed away aged 83. She was a pioneer and a great DJ, used to love her Sunday evening show after the chart show, she would start with a song, say nothing and just before the vocals would say "Hi" in her gravelly voice. RIP Annie

Surprisingly, we did actually beat them at home in 86/87 when they won the league easily. A win which later turned out to deny them a 100 pts total and was also a fairly important 3 points for us in the end. Was that at the start of the season or was that the season before? Seem to remember going 3...

I was at the 2-0 and it was definitely a Saturday. Memorable for an exchange at half time between some of our more vociferous followers and ex chairman John Jackson, which ended with JJ being moved on by the Police.

Right up there with the best value for money signings our club has ever made. Michael Duff is another one at the top of that list.

Has Parky made a partial recovery from his Locked in Syndrome? He looks a lot better than he has on a couple of occasions when he has been pictured in a wheelchair with a head brace. Fingers crossed that he does recover, he and his family deserve it.

Also his birthday today. Happy birthday Parky, very good player for us and a genuine nice bloke.

17 14 18 18 Not bad but if booking Cullen early on was an attempt to set the tone, he failed miserably. Let so many Spurs fouls go and ignored repeated standing on the ball to stop free kicks being taken.

Because homeownership is such a new aspiration of young people and never was before now… Easy to criticise by those who most likely bought a house for pittance decades ago and now sit on a nice golden nest egg.

700 people prosecuted. Surely alarm bells would ring that such a number of SPMs were all committing the same crime? How many were prosecuted annually before the introduction of the faulty IT system? Something i will be watching but it sounds to me to be one of the biggest scandals in recent times.

Air fryer is a bit of a misleading description, it is a mini oven. Probably not ideal if you have a large family, but i rarely use an oven now.

Part of a midfield that wasn't Premier League standard and contributed significantly to our relegation in 2022.
