I'm still hoping Dyche leans on his friendship with Pochetino and brings in Mbappe on loan

He did. We signed NKoudou

Sympathy For The Devil is always one that gets me listening whenever it comes on the radio, a great tune, and a great story at the same time.

I love Sympathy For The Devil but there are just so many I love.

Terribly sad news. RIP Charlie.

Lucky enough to have seen the Stones three times. Fair to say that despite my Grandad telling my dad many decades ago that “They’ll never last…”, that they very much did!

My grandma told me I hadn't to like them because they had long hair

Such sad news, member of one of the greatest bands ever but he leaves us with so many memories and so much wonderful music.

It's only Rock 'n Roll Charlie but I like it.

Keith Bertschin in the Shots team too. Understudy for Paul Mariner at Ipswich and then played for a clutch of clubs including Birmingham and Norwich

He'd been a decent player but was coming to an end by the time he got to Aldershot who I think were the last league club he played for.

Apparently the programme to be shown on Friday evening features Luton v Burnley from November 1974. Apparently we won 3-2 according to the Luton fan i just spoke to!

The day I sat just behind Eric Morecambe - was on recently on the Saturday morning runs.

ClaretTony

I recall talking about the Shots keeper on the way home. Where had he played his football prior to Aldershot? Where on earth did they find him? When we were scrambling for keepers later in the season, I kept hoping we would go for him. He was immense! He'd had a short spell at Millwall but the only...

Some of his ex-city signings were great, some ok and some rubbish, don’t think they can be lumped together. If it is Bond it is usually condemned. I think Hutchison & Reeves were the only two he signed directly from City and both were excellent signings, but the bad really was Gerry Gow (from Rothe...

I think I saw something about a record run of games with no red cards or something but not really seen it mentioned anywhere. Anyone know what this was about? I mentioned equalling the record in the Brighton report but from my Liverpool report: There was one huge positive worth shouting from the ro...

Ron Springett’s brother, Peter, was keeper at QPR and in 1967 they swapped clubs. Surely a rarity for brothers.

Ron had started at QPR too. Ron was a top keeper but Peter wasn’t.

Jack Kelsey, a Welsh international, played for Arsenal during the 50s and early 60s.

Was just going to post Kelsey. Can’t think of a goalkeeper before Bonetti at Chelsea.

Presumably this article will be deleted once we get to the point of the season where Aldershot fold.

Ha ha. Some time to go before that happens.

Oh, there's no denying that. Although to compare how money has changed... Ben Gibson cost the same as Newcastle paid for Alan Shearer (and it was a world record fee then). There's only been 8 (permanent) Burnley managers since then. He's also been here 9 years. For where we are, the the current foo...

There was a Warren Beattie played for Preston a few years ago, could be the same player now at Barlick. And Tom Cruise played for Arsenal.

Great write up CT. I was playing Junior school cricket against Michael Brown around that time in the Saturday morning schools comp at St Andrews. He stood out a mile as the only child in full whites.

Thanks for changing some details, but doesn't change the validity of my views.

Totally changes the validity of your views I'm afraid. You quite simply got it wrong. Ward came in very late in the window and was starting once fully fit. He only then lost his place to a broken leg.

ClaretTony

Spot on CT……and whilst a defeat, thought we were in it for large parts and certainly an entertaining game. In addition to the scotland bit, the one about them having bought their scarves and should now go home was also met with a smile by the scousers (and non scousers). We also walked back into th...

ClaretTony

Correct in the same way that he didn’t spot that Ward was the man to play left back for the good of the team before he selected Ward in that away fixture at Stoke when we won 2-0 in the promotion year. Dyche is very very reluctant to change players/positions unless he is forced to in some cases, se...

Couldn’t agree more. Really enjoyed being back at a game at this level. Really missed it. I do prefer Curzon Ashton (good chip butties) though.

Most of the team are 19 or younger, stamina could be an issue.

Potentially. They look to have one or two experienced players too.

Is it a good game, CT?

Much the better team in the first half but gone scrappy since half time although we did miss a couple of good chances and hit the bar just after their goal.

If having 3 kids and 2 goalkeepers on the bench for first game of the season is acceptable to you then you are easily pleased. You know my comment is aimed at management and not the players but feel free to make what you will of it. Liverpool had two goalkeepers on the bench too on Saturday. It rea...

21 mins: Tucker on for Harker.

Harker pulled up after playing the ball into the box. No one near him.

Still 0-0 but we’ve had a couple of chances.

Only 50 league starts in four years at Watford. I thought he’d have done really well there.

Being linked with a move to QPR

Him and Austin would be quite a Championship strike force

There are about five or six Championship clubs interested in signing him on loan I read last week.
