What Tony posted.
Was given an example of that from an ex top flight manager some years ago

Bury look doomed and Dale may also follow them sadly.
Previously posted re the fixture congestion at Stanley from March 30th to April 28th they have 8 games and 5 against teams chasing promotion

Stan will be devastated given my understanding of her place in his life and how often he referred to her when talking about his life in football.
My condolences to a Stan and his family.

Well I agree that both Pickford and Butland have been far better at distributing the ball this season than Pope especially from the back of their net to the centre spot.

Good three wickets for Jimmy is about all that is positive from a Claret's angle.
Will he get past McGrath before his legs give out?

I am afraid my sick humour kicked in when I saw where this dreadful event happened.
Another apparent Isis inspired butchery.

He picked up some strange infection in his foot from walking on a beach somewhere (?aus) and it wasn't possible to get rid of the infection so he needed his foot amputating hence a below knee amputation to get a good prosthetic fit

Whether it is a millionaire drunk or a skid row drunk the underlying problem is the same and relates to brain chemistry. These guys and gals have a dreadful time due to their inability to control their drive to drink; for others it is gambling or eating or sex. It is down to those affected to addres...

I am really pleased to hear that JM is in recovery and hope he has the determination and support around him to continue. Always thought it sad that we have never been able to get him back to the Turf. Despite his problems we took a great leap forward under his stewardship and may with more ££££ done...

Cannot see Rovers messing this one up. They have pretty easy 9 games now although 5 are away

mdd2

That sounds a simple and idea solution from a supporter's perspective, but of course the club would have to consider broader factors, for example significant depreciation of the value of whichever one does not play. If we were to get in the Europa League there would of course be more opportunities ...

The real unknown now is how well Heaton will be 1) in his head regarding his shoulder 2) on the ground when he bashes that shoulder repeatedly. I noticed Krull was keeping goal for Brighton yesterday and seems over his dislocated shoulder from 2013 but he seems to be number 2 at Brighton now For me ...

You have 444.22g of naked nuts at€11 so 1000g would cost €1000/444.22x 11 or €24.76 if my maths is correct

When you're on a good run you want to be playing as much as possible. Well we were on a good run in 1962 but the pile up of fixtures in March/April cost us the league and maybe the FA Cup. I imagine Stanley have a small squad which may also affect them. If they go up as champions then I think John ...

I think Palace will stay up and until Sparky arrived I though Soton would go down but maybe not so I think it is going to be one of Huddersfield or Southampton with Stoke and WBA

mdd2

Another 3 pts today but just been looking at their fixtures. For some reason they have no game next week but then play 7 matches in April and have some tough games with Mansfield Wycombe and Swindon away and Exeter Lincoln and Notts Co at home. I hope that intensity of games doesn't cause them to mi...

WBA now -1, Stoke 6 Palace 9 Soton and Udders 10

We may not be able to hold on to all those 11 if the bigger clubs come looking ££££££££££££££££.
Would be anxious we don't lose Pope, Wood,JBG, Defour and Mee; think the rest will stay. Clearly Tarks will be a target but think he wants to be up here with us.

More recent than the repeated signings of Lenny. Look at the midfield in the 14-15 season and the real problems we had after Deano's first cruciate injury

And Putin would be even worse off without Russia and the gullible people who tolerate
their living conditions and an economy less productive than ours despite huge natural resources

mdd2

Excellent news but hope we are looking at Mee,Hendrick and Vokes who are OOC in 2019 as well as Ward Defour and JBG who I think are to 2019 but with an option from us to have them until ?2020.
And of course there is Scotty OOC soon

Not sure gay couples would agree with losing husband and wife, common references when a gay man refers to his partner or woman to her partner respectively.
This loss of gender drives me nuts- we cannot even refer to a ship as a she anymore. As for chairman/woman far better than the inanimate "chair"

We did that with OC too. Let's hope we can do City again next season to make it 5 on the bounce.

It really was apparent from the outset. It was quite a surprise to see SD first game in charge how the defence was tightened up. Of course at the other end Austin's prolific scoring came to an abrupt halt. That season Austin bagged 14 in the first 13 games and 10 in the last 33 and half the 60 goals...

I agree No I don't. Good as my late friend always said "check your work" And as others have pointed out the figures number according to the sides which fall from 15 to 11, the clock goes from 3 to 2 o'clock (I got that) and the nanas number 4 then 3. Enjoyed getting that wrong. Think I will test my...

Yes Wrexham home 92, A guard of honour for Jimmy and the team.

I think both Wolves and Villa are teams we have found difficult to get results in the time I have watched us. Villa was nearly always a defeat at their place with some form of result here but in 1962 I think after we won at Villa we then won perhaps just one game in the run in that cost us the leagu...

So is it 15,15 and 8 now for the bottom 3 with Palace to play both Stoke and WBA?

Crikey, it is looking like we are going to have our third, not thirteenth consecutive season in the Prem League. To consider the cost of re-development of the CF or BL stands now would IMO be unwise. 1) neither could be done in a close season-so quite a lot of ST holder would be without a seat-and k...
