A top 6 club in the context of this conversation is a club in the top 6. Liverpool, Arsenal, Palace, Spurs and Sunderland with Bournemouth 6th....! And this is the problem with your argument even the so called lesser clubs are doing well including both promoted clubs. Bournemouth second tonight.

Sad news for those of us of a certain age. Always liked The Yardbirds. I note what Elwa says, but I am sure I saw Chris play with what was termed as The New Yardbirds in 2014. This was on “ The Ultimate Rhythm and Blues Tour”, featuring The Zombies, Animals and Friends, New Yardbirds, Maggie Bell a...

Michael Keane equaliser v Mboro in April 2016

If you're talking about noise, and comparing with the Robbie Blake goal above, I agree with you.

The loudest moment I've ever heard at TM.

Leeds 1 Burnley 4.
1974, highly significant, being leeds only home defeat of the season . Were they going for the title too, I cant remember now.

They were also filming a documentary about Revie which he then blocked.

Poor losers, even worse winners.

Under, Over, Sideways, Down.

Well played Chris.

Deepdale 1972 0-1 was second only to the night at York for me.

Though the Coyle play off final was special.

That Semi -Final v Spurs was hard to take. Were we 1 up at halftime in the first leg and they came out and got four in quick time and then of course the second leg, 3-0up and on our way to Wembley and they get them two goals. I remember going in the Park View afterwards and everyone was just standi...

Beating Plymouth 2-1 under Waddle. Going back to the 4th division again would have been grim.

Very early start and derove up alongside the Green Army for that one. I felt sick all the way.

The day ended well.

The alcoholics were there before, outside TK Maxx/Sainsburys, you couldn't see them as well. There's another project in town that should shoulder the blame for the increasing visibility of them under the Culvert, outside TK Maxd, outside McDonald's and down to M & S. How do you spot the difference ...

White Heron (Egret) on River Ribble at LP

Little Egret. Therer's one nearly always stood in the River Aire at the confluence of Sutton beck, you can usually see it as you drive towards Steeton on the A629.

Hannibal's position is an interesting one.

Just above two players who have never looked near good enough.

It will only really start to be indicative when we've played a few more of our "winnable" games.

I remember waiting for the 'winnable' games under VK. It never happened.

I hope it's different this time.

dougcollins

We're the worst performing of the three, so far.

Apparently Sheffield United were fined a total of £445k last season for issues with player and staff behaviour. That’s some effort.

Wow.

Duncandisorderly is a pundit on the Everton v West Ham game.

We also had a throw-in game during that winless streak.

Every time there was a throw in a £5 note was passed to the next person down the line, and back again. When it got to half time or full time, you got to keep the fiver a la pass the parcel.

Fancy not knowing that Bowen would cut inside and shoot.

Luton. So forgettable it became memorable.

Thanks.

I'd erased the actual game from my memory.

It's like a library in there.

Not like Goodison.

West Ham's defence look dodgy.

They really don't like anyone running at them.

I saw us win the Charity Shield at Maine Road and a rare point at the Etihad but we move on
We have a decent side and will survive

The best thing about the Charity Shield is that we scored with the same free kick routine in the league game the following season.

With a little twist.

A bloke that was at times ridiculed by some, especially following his departure and when all appeared ‘rosey’ in the first 12 months of Coyle.

2014, 2-2 draw. City were 2 up at half time, 2nd half we battered them and for me should have won. Dyche told our players to take the ball to the corners and waste time, not sure why as City were dead on their feet. Quite a few City fans in the pubs after said to us they could not understand why we...

The way SPs mentality works, I think.it was predictable he was going to opt for a back five as soon as we got into the PL.

I don't believe it helps us defend any better- worse, if anything, and it certainly doesn't help going forward.

Just sent an email to the club. Doubt I’d get a reply but Sainsbury not having Chorizo in stock when we arranged a tapas night for tea is appalling.

Always interesting how people not experiencing the problem can belittle those that are.
