He didn't look happy coming off as it will be embarrassing for players, but Vinny has done it 3 or 4 times now this season to different players.

3 or 4 times? I can only recall 2. Yesterday and Twine.

So is this new league basically just the Ribblesdale league with a few teams from the Greater Manchester area?

Ribblesdale League plus about 10 from the Bolton League / Bolton Association

NL Claret

A lot of excitement about the new North West cri ket league. Lots of talk about clubs putting coaches on for away games for fans. I'm certainly looking forward to visiting some new grounds. The novelty will wear off, can’t imagine there’s much thrill going to Walkden or Farnworth Social Circle for ...

NL Claret

My experience of Bolton League clubs in the Lancs KO is that it’s hill billy country! Always found them to be unwelcoming and full of dick heads on and off the field. Played in the league for 23 years, that’s not far off the mark, their idea of banter was more like personal abuse, our crime was bee...

NL Claret

Not sure how much mileage is in the NWCL, a lot of Bolton League clubs wouldn’t enter the GMCL as they said there was too much travelling. That was an excuse as some clubs would have found themselves well down the pyramid as standards on and off the pitch had declined. It sounds a bit like the Penni...

NL Claret

Like the WBA manager said , it is like playing against 11 outfield players.

NL Claret

Love watching him. Tactically so clever which allows him to seemingly always have time and space on the ball, add to that he works his arse off. I saw some Anderlecht fans on twitter recently say how €3m was daylight robbery and how much they miss him this season - they aren’t wrong. Watched the cu...

Tried a few places then got lucky in The Old Swan where we watched with another Burnley fan

Good stuff, Katie and her mad mum Sue!! We are over in March, will probably watch the Hull game in there. Liverpool are on in the CL that night, Katie won’t be putting that on!!

NL Claret

Looks like it's been raining in the region over last few days 😔 Any suggestions for game in Corralejo, Fuerteventura🤔 Preston or Watford game? Doubt you will find the Preston game (as mentioned above rugby and PL) , Watford will be on in a few places, Katie will have it on in Old Swan, other places...

NL Claret

A couple things about the game, was sat in BLS and in the first half Kayden Jackson shouted at the linesman to give us something after he correctly gave Burnley a throw in, a few minutes later Jackson committed a foul which prompted the shout of….referee give him something! I was really impressed wi...

Tipsy's showed the Norwich game, reckon you will be spoilt for choice.

I seem to be in Matagorda for the next 8 days or so... So I'll have a glance on here before Watford game and see what the crack is.

You shouldn't have a problem in the shopping type complex , Auld Triangle, Sin Nombre, Peggy's or Deckys.

I was only a kid but I'm sure I can remember us playing Tom Hark in the early to mid 90s. Maybe at half time or full time if we won?

Definitely started as a full time thing if we won.

NL Claret

Looked like cramp to me.

NL Claret

Foster looked like came off with cramp not a pulled muscle, he certainly was snippered. Probably should have come off sooner as he looked off the pace and adapting to the English game.

NL Claret

All the subs made a difference, Cullen was neat and tidy, Brownhill got in behind, Barnes as above , Churlinov was direct and JBG caused problems.

NL Claret

I’m getting deja view, who claimed Blackburn we’re getting the full CFS?

NL Claret

Just a correction on the “There was one concerning moment when Teemu Pukki got clear to the left of goal. His ball in found Kieran Dowell but Peacock-Farrell got a foot to his shot and out for a corner” It should have been a corner but bounced back into play off Pukki who was off the pitch, and eve...

NL Claret

It’s interesting reading the comments on the rate the ref thread, the save by BPF did go out for a corner however it hit Pukki who was off the pitch and the game carried on!!

NL Claret

Don’t think any of the bookings were particularly harsh. He could easily have ignored the Roberts thing but played it by the book. But then no one else did it after that so maybe it was the right thing to do. Hanley did it in the second half when Barnes won a free kick after being fouled by Nunez. ...

NL Claret

Met my West Brom supporting mate the other week and explained the Coventry thing, he said they have always been desperate for a rivalry as non of Midland clubs give a toss about them.

NL Claret

I've never spotted that in the rules. He clearly and deliberately kicked the ball away. We would have expected an opponent to be carded for it. A few years ago yes a booking, nowadays most referees don't bother, especially when he could argue it that he thought he kept it in and passed it to a Norw...

Yep. Him and Cullen the beating heart of that performance.

It's rare for me to agree with Spice however yes, Barnes and Cullen were absolute class today. Both appeared to everywhere on the pitch. Barnes looks so much fitter than he has been for a couple of years. Cullen is the Irish Kanté.

NL Claret

Roberts booking was harsh, seen this happen plenty of times over the past few seasons with no caution. If he's going to book him for that type of offence then he has to be consistent. 2nd half when Barnes was fouled by Nunez, Hanley smashes the ball, ref does nothing. On general he was OK apart from...

NL Claret

I'll hold my hands up ,I wasn't particularly impressed with him until after world cup break, since then he has been very impressive. Excellent today, along with the rest of the team in particular Barnes and Cullen.

NL Claret

Been twice in March, once it was good, mid to low 20s with a lot of sunshine, the other time thick cloud and very little sunshine (fleece and hat weather). Its usually windy all year round. Done Lanzarote a few times, Matagorda was the pick from PDC and Costa Teguise. Can get a ferry from Correlajo ...

NL Claret

About 10 years I posted for Fuerteventura advice on Clarets mad, we have been 11 times since. Was there in Nov and going back in March. We have always stayed in Correlajo which is a mix of new and old. Very laid back and has an Italian and South American influence. Hired a car and visited most place...

NL Claret

If you watch the goal, Tella also does a decent screen on his man.

NL Claret

Do they have to go through the middle tunnel? I could have swore there were more than one. That was the problem with the semi final. They didn't close the gate to block the tunnel off when it was full. If there is more than one the supporters must have been going in through the wrong tunnel and i'm...

NL Claret

The tunnel is the issue again, it looks like the tunnel is the only access to the lower tier forcing fans into one place to try and find their own seats, have read the stewarding was either hopeless or non existent. Have sat upstairs and the gangways are too narrow as are the exits. If you find an a...

When he got his potential chance in the team (Came on as sub at Newcastle) he did his ACL.

NL Claret

In footballing terms it was a pretty hard gig. A small number of games with big intervals in between. How do you keep yourself physically and mentally sharp enough to play in the PL without warning, knowing you will have to step back when others are fit? Yes, sure he was rewarded well but I don't t...

NL Claret

Just drive at 50mph, it will probably safer and more relaxing. You might save yourself a minute or 2 by going at 59mph. The amount of times someone goes speeding past me doing the speed limit , I usually catch up with them at the next junction or roundabout.

NL Claret

Didn’t Muric make some good saves in the first half.

The best pies ever on a ground was from the Bee Hole kiosk 1985 ish to 1992 ish.

I expect the pies were the same in other parts of the ground.

Whites Pies? Yes, decent them with some Sainsburys own red sauce on.

NL Claret

There's always one player targeted and they haven't been able to aim at a GK for years :lol: Yes, the last GK targeted was also signed from City. Think the negativity around Muric , for some, was decided as he didn't have a good loan spell at Forest and don't see what he brings to the style of play.

NL Claret

Another good performance and a clean sheet for the big lad.

Some on here like to over analyse (think they are GK specialists) and hope Muric makes a mistake, not sure why.

NL Claret

My guess re empty Bob Lords seats is probably pensioners buy a ST and use it sparingly. I know someone from Somerset who probably has a couple but doesn't use it often. When I buy tickets for the BL the availability is low however when you turn up there are plenty of empty seats. My Dad has ST in JH...

Did Eustace say anything about Hannibal should have had a second yellow and been sent off?

And Deeney's sh!thouse foul that should have seen red. The ref didn't even give a foul for the challenge on Benson, probably as he knew he would have to give another card.

NL Claret

I think Andy Hinchcliffe said the officials have had a good game, possibly based on correctly giving a goal kick instead of a corner.

I’m not one of those poster claiming to be ITK at all although I got talking to someone last summer who knows a relative of a player who said that for most of last season the atmosphere in and around the club was toxic.

TfGM recommends going to the Trafford Centre by public transport to avoid parking there. Never been a fan of parking in Trafford Park either, a right drag back to the M60.

NL Claret

Not sure I'd fancy parking near the Trafford Centre a few days before Xmas.. it could be hammered with shoppers. A colleague went yesterday and it took him 45 minutes to park. Think that was around 5pm. Its not just shoppers , he took his little one to see Paddington, he also said it was almost imp...

Isn't a straight red 2/3 games 1 for two yellows Was saying with some guys tonight that expected appeal to be announced today Presume maybe too late for any appeal to effect Weds game now if not already registered Depends what the red card is for, for example, violent conduct would carry a 3 match ...
