He certainly had plenty of ability but I always thought that he needed several chances before he could put one of them in the net.

What do you think constitutes a derby?

If you are suggesting proximity is always a factor - how does El Classico fit into the equation?

El Classico isn't a derby though is it?

£1.50 for a large Mr Whippy ice cream at Boundary Mill,just shows how much these other ice cream merchants are ripping people off with their £3 50 /£4 prices.

Thought that was the idea of a message board, varying opinions and all that.
Perhaps we should only comment on things you agree with?

Even though these threads shouldn't be here in your opinion?
Double standards maybe?

Another assured performance, always been good on the ball, just never a player for a high line.

Got to worry for Worrall after Laurent starting ahead of him in the back 3 today. Parker obviously doesn’t rate him.

Why would you worry for Worrall?

Special buses run back to Piccadilly Gardens after the game.

As you exit the away end turn right at the main road then cross over the road.

You will see the buses lined up further down that road.

With the players at his disposal, and considering in one of the finals we were 1-0 up at home against a poor Italian side and STILL managed to lose it, it’s a phenomenal under achievement in my book.

Poor teams don't win the European Championships surely?

God knows how it happened but this thread has become more embarrassing than a grown man sending racist abuse to Jess Carter.

Yes and one or possibly both of the people involved would be quick to jump on anyone doing similar.

We're playing week commencing 15th September, according to Sky. And we won't be on telly, according to me. They will pick (if they have 4 games) Sheff W v Grimsby, Wolves v Everton, Palace v Millwall, Barnsley v Brighton from our half of the draw. (That's a guess, not factual info.) https://www.sky...

Didn't Marshall Burke go to Leeds when he left us?

He married a girl who lived across the road from us.

FWIW … we have STs in the CFS and travel from Southbourne near Bournemouth.. (I suspect we are the exception) .. will be tough to get to a lot of games this season but wanted to keep our tickets … A member of our family lives in Bournemouth and also has a season ticket in the Cricket Field stand.

So the teams in Europe won’t play each other. Seems like seeding, which supposedly had been removed from this years competition. If any of those teams were drawn to play each other it could well clash with their European fixtures meaning the League Cup tie couldn't be played on the intended date. T...

On the club website, it says: "The developments aim to build stronger links between fans and players, ensuring that supporters visiting Turf Moor enjoy a memorable matchday experience."

The club have once again used the word "exciting" in their description, that's also laughable!

They dont normally put on extra buses so if you are going on the X43 it's best to go for an early one.

So, for those who have finally got to 2000 points, you think it a good idea that the club now moves the target further away? You reap what you sow.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't understand the furore with concession pricing. Less than £30 for a football match is reasonable value in my opinion, and I'm not sure discounted pricing should be offered based on age.
