(Your) Location - Not Burnley

We know and we're glad about that.

How nice. Another anonymous keyboard warrior who resorts to unpleasantries if someone has a differing opinion.

Well according to Premier League stats website, in 17 apps this season, he's had 27 shots ie about one and a a half a game, and 14 on target, ie less than one per game.

So no, actually, it is true.

Barnes is a permanent red card waiting to happen. One assumes his instructions are to "rough 'em up a bit". Problem is that this is the sum total of his game these days. He rarely has a shot on goal and refs are wise to his antics. If he scored a few then this modus operandi could be forgiven. But h...

WBA had a player called Berndt Haas.

And a long time ago, the Villa had a midfield of Jimmy Brown, Oscar Arce and Barry Hole.

The perfect job for Dyche's is Villa. It'll be interesting to see how it goes for Bruce from now on. It's looking highly unlikely they're going to reach the play-offs this time, and depending on the new owners' and the fans' patience (and Bruce's staying-power - wouldn' t surprise me for one if he q...

I think there's zero chance of us going down ............ £22 wasted. Good for you. I happen to still think there's a quite decent chance. I've looked at the fixtures. I don't think there's ZERO chance of relegation, unlike you. So, I've hedged my bets. It's win-win as far as I'm concerned, so no, ...

"Who's joining me?" Well, I WAS going to go to Hull but from where I live, the day would cost me about £100. So after watching that shambles, I'm giving it a miss, I've just put £22 on relegation @ 22/1 with Skybet because let's face it, after looking at the upcoming fixtures, it's a possibility, as...

Post 163. (and 154) Your post runs along the lines of : Burnley beat Liverpool at home. Liverpool (we) didn't like this result, and seeing as we got beat, it therefore follows that Burnley should play us again tomorrow because they beat us yesterday, so what are they afraid of? Haha. It's called dem...

I object to the inference that Brexiteers were/are thick, racist, little Englanders, or simply too stupid to understand what "leave" meant. I'm old enough to have voted in the 1974 referendum when I voted "remain". I was voting for a common market - not an over-riding unelected superstate that usurp...

If it's been painted amateurishly/shoddily, I'd have a go with a high-pressure water lance. If that doesn't work, an industrial-type sander from a hire shop should do it. Another possibility is a paint solvent/remover from a DIY store. HTH.

I can remember Jim Furnell playing for Arsenal in the league cup at the turf , it was one of the the best pieces of goalkeeping I've seen, he was unbeatable making save after save ..Always liked him .. If I recall correctly, Jim Furnell returned to the Turf in goal for Rotherham in a League Cup gam...

The fact he once was a Claret shouldn't mask the fact he has insight and intellect on par with Paul Merson, IMO.

Shrewsbury (a) Cup replay December 1992. 1 - 1, 90th minute. Marlon saves penalty. We go up the other end and Micky Conroy crashes in the wniner. Bedlam. Never forgotten it.

Thanks for that. Nearly paid £9.99 for it last week and thought better of it.
99p sounds better to me.
Thanks again.

Because of my age and because we were in Div 1, I've been fortunate enough to see nearly all of the greatest British footballers in the last 50yrs+. All the 66 and 70 World Cup squads and most of the Scots, Irish and Welsh. So, the "greats" include in no particular order : Charlton(s), Law, Crerand,...

I'm with Virgin. I have been for 6 yrs. In September I was paying £84 pm for multiroom (2 Tivo boxes) plus all the Sky Sports, with BT Sports thrown in. High-speed 200m broadband and weekend and evening calls plus line rental. No Sky movies - I'm not interested. I rang customer services and asked fo...

Beautifully manicured eyebrows, though.
Oooh - suits you, Sir ! Oooh!

The money will only get bigger... wait until the new kids on the block come in with their offers- Google, Amazon, Facebook etc... they will blow Sky out of the water when it comes into buying the rights next time round. Quite why folk think the astronomical money for broadcasting rights will keep g...

I have actually read scores of football books, mostly ghost-written autobiographies (oxymoron there?) and quite a few biographies. They are almost all totally identical / predictable in structure, starting with their schooldays and junior teams, getting scouted, then pro contracts, then their profes...

Why is it bonkers? ............ who is to blame? There are many other possibilities for which the club will want to reduce its potential liability. And there you have it. The modern world. Blame / claim / "reduce liability" 13 yr olds not allowed to go to a football match unaccompanied I belong to ...

Just one more example that the modern world is totally bonkers.

"arguably the Godfather of Golf" Very arguably. I suppose it depends on your definition of "Godfather" but I'd bet you could ask 100 folk in the street if they'd heard of Jacobs and you'd be lucky if you found one. I met him a couple of times but there's a good 20 names (at least) I'd put before his...

The football's been great to watch this season; it must have been 'cos we've scored more goals than anyone else. Dyche is beyond reproach and his tactics, selections and subs should NEVER be questioned. We are definitely going to be promoted. When we're in the Prem, we're going to batter all the tea...

So, someone actually thought Ulvestad was MoM ? I mean really ?
