The Orient game which, for me, was still just a rescue situation.

The turning point came in the 2nd leg of the Sherpa Van semi at Preston the season after. Nobody gave us a chance on their plastic pitch but you could hear the 6,500 Clarets from miles away.

Belief starting to become reality.

Dressinggown

I don't usually order online but did order one from a local takeaway. I selected salad and chilli sauce.

The whole thing was covered with a curry type sauce making everything soggy.

A bit strange but some may comment that I deserved what I got.

Dressinggown

Half of the players could barely kick the ball in any direction.

I suppose in the early days a wet leather ball weighed about 5 stone.

Dressinggown

I tried but my phone has died.

Or me ?

Dressinggown

Nowt much left in Accrington.

So speaks a man who has either never caused any sort of noise/disturbance after 8:00pm, or one who while not giving a flying f*ck about anyone else, expects everyone else to show him more consideration. Can you provide some evidence of this ? I can't state that I have not been involved in unsavoury...

Dressinggown

Until recently, I had my Grandkids living with me.

They need to go to bed and sleep at a reasonable time that they can take on the full opportunities that our education system provides during the day.

Yet, these people don't give a flying f*ck.. Nobody seems to give a **** about anybody else.

Dressinggown

Anything of any worth in terms of food stuff that we produce we sell on to other countries because we have no interest in it.

Dressinggown

It's so easy to have everything delivered and food has become part of that culture.

Which kid wants a home cooked meal when their mates are getting something from a multi national branded corporation ?

Dressinggown

Because there is this inbuilt mindset that your delivery will be cold and spoiled by the time it arrives.

I once threw a few eggs at a car recently but have you seen the price of them nowadays ? Cheaper to get a bloody takeaway.

Dressinggown

Once of a time you had to enter the premises to pick up your order. Not any longer. Sit in your car outside my house with your shitty music on at full pelt until the takeaway rings you to state that your order is ready. Then belt on your horn until a member of staff brings your order to your car. I'...

Anything plant based.

Dressinggown

Chilli con Carne would be wrong without the Kidney Beans but there is no way that I would entertain a bowl of them on their own.

Dressinggown

One only knows about the Alexander penalty, those incredible goals at Reading and then 40,00 turning up at Wembley to see that curling shot into the top corner from Elliott put us in the world game.

I was crushed in the away end at Reading but almost died of heat exhaustion at Wembley.

Dressinggown

I'm afraid that those in the foreground were hospitaled shortly after.

Dressinggown

Always meet new friends down at the Bootleggers.

Dressinggown

New Brewm Great local beers at daft prices.
Spoons is always an obvious.
Can't go wrong with The Bridge.
Those on Bank Parade are good.

Can't beat Bootleggers near the bus station. An experience in itself. Does real ale and also a number of local characters 🫤

Dressinggown

The chances are that we go down.

Left with potentially incredible debt issues with players that we can't offload who are on 4 year deals that get paid more than we could imagine in a lifetime.

I'm just putting out for comments.

Dressinggown

And you get relegated again the season after ?

Dressinggown

The stats over recent years don't go in any favour of promoted sides from the Championship staying in the Premier League the season after.

I hope that I'm proved wrong but I can't see us scoring enough goals to keep us in there.

Dressinggown

Mushy peas with Fish and chips should be a given.

Gravy with fish and chips.

Those that do that will be the first against the wall come the revolution!!!

Gravy with fish on your Chippy tea should not be allowed.

A side portion of that sweet curry sauce could be considered but only for the chips.

Dressinggown

Although Octopus appears 'rather Alien'. It is right up there with the likes of Lobster.

Not likely to get any fresh stuff round these parts. Plenty in Scotland but everything is exported into the Mediterranean.

Dressinggown

I'm not a huge fan of Black Pudding but there was a place on Burnley Market Hall which did some proper moist items.

That's probably going back a while !

Today, you will only get a slice of dried out crap on your all day breakfast.

Dressinggown

Some good suggestions out there: Bananas and Sweetcorn taste the same and are completely indigestible. Jellied Eels, whilst once a good form of cheap nutrition for the poor residents of London during the late 18th and 19th Centuries, why on earth would you even consider eating that nowadays ? The mo...

Dressinggown

I'm not on about unhealthy, over processed foods but those that I cannot see the point of:

Aubergine - Has only a tasteless crap texture.
Anchovies- Why not use salt ? My cat wouldn't touch them.
Actually, any fish with bones.
Stuff that crawles.

Dressinggown

Just sign up to the major social media platforms and you get the latest output from your desired sites.

They will then track the remainder of your life and probably sell any remotely promising crap to anyone who could make a couple of quid.

AI is the new dawn.

Dressinggown

The main problem seems to be those bloody tracks that you particularly dislike.

And then you have to resort to making moaning sounds on public transport or handing in your notice at work.

Dressinggown

Being In possession of a working fully functional active brain it filters out what to contain & what to expunge & more importantly the processing side. It's far from empty but reliable when called upon if needed. It's a gift I guess to just block & forget unnecessary stuff. That rules me out then.

During a recent GP appointment, for something unrelated, I queried this symptom.

His response was that he heard "So True" by Spandau Ballet for most of his waking hours.

Dressinggown

"Moving to New York" by the Wombats has been a recent one.

To be fair, it's not as crap as most.

Dressinggown

More of a repetitive of the same chorus.

Dressinggown

Admittedly, I'm a bit unusual in the head department, but does anyone have these completely annoying bloody songs ringing round their heads all day or even worse ? I have them. But they aren't ones I even like. "I can't find this feeling anymore" by REO Speedwagon, keeps cropping up. What on earth i...

Sorry, the rest of my post has gone into the ether.

And I can't be arsed to type any more of my usual diatribes.

Dressinggown

We spent a couple of decades with goalkeepers during the 70s

I believe that over 100 turned up.

Most living within less than a couple of miles from the ground.

Fair play though.

Once you have 'cooked' your 'Finest' Prawn Linguine in the microwave please don't tell me that you remove it with your bare hands.

Oven gloves only means some form of insurance claim on your kitchen floor although your cat might prefer it for a pack of Felix.

Presented by Venison Cock ?

Dressinggown

You need at least a gallon of vinegar for Tripe.

Dressinggown

Tripe, Pigs Trotters, Sheep Brains and any sort of offal could be the answer. Just wack into a pan of boiling water.

I'm sure that the jury might be in a bit of a stalemate over this proposal.

Possibly not. Scorching hands is the only way to go..

Dressinggown

The plastic containers that you put in the microwave are hotter than the Sun when you attempt to retrieve them, yet the contents are barely lukewarm.

Perhaps it's time to catch and eat anything that vaguely move.

Old Aged Pensioners or kids on public transport ?

I bet leaving the house is a real trauma some of you.

It's slightly easier than trying to make a cheap meal.

Perhaps not, depending where you live.

Tinned Corned Beef.

Yes, but I removed the end of my thumb attempting to sort out a Chicken Madeira with Mushroom Rice.

Yet another rant. Yes, there will be alternatives but for many of us a supermarket meal is a quick and easy solution. Or it should be. I would not class myself as elderly but I am approaching that period in my life. However, I am finding it increasingly impossible to access some of these 'Ready Meal...

And this was whilst I went to the Off Licence..

Agreed, by motability has been a little impaired over the recent months.

Interestingly. a large proportion of patients and visitors thought it was well within their remit to biite significant amounts of my ears and upper neck

Dressinggown

As long as you avoided the fat, gristle, tendons and bones.

I would describe it as 'rustic'.

To be fair, my lower extremeties had a significantly better taste profile than the Brussels Sprouts.
