  1. We have hurt many a player over the years by putting them into the first team too early since coming down from the Prem... I remember Scott Mcniven getting a tremendous amount of :censored: and stick when he was just a kid, thrown in too young, trying to work miracles as we dived down the leagues... I don't think it helped his development.... I think too much was expected of a young Richard Graham as well... Amongst other players I can remember.... Its remarkable the likes of Scott went on to play 200+ games for us...
  2. I have no idea who will buy us in the future as there is literally nothing left to buy.... It either works under the current board or I fear we are facing a future away from BP as a phoenix club. I wish the council had kept the land all those years ago... and to think I was dumb enough to support the council selling it at the time. More fool me...
  3. Much better time to be a football fan... Agreed...
  4. A lot of real ale pubs around Manchester put on tons of extra beers as well usually during the festival so its worth venturing around them as well.
  5. Nah I accept the right decision was come to... Shock horror, democracy works
  6. I understand people don't like being wrong. Any examples of positive things I have :censored: on? Or is this just another game of bull:censored: bingo?
  7. Lol maybe so but it never happened so who knows Out of interest how long does it take to get into Manchester in the morning :P
  8. You might have a stronger hand to play with this comment if you had a thread where I was wrong ? which I didn't say, ok fair enough... You might struggle to find one where I was wrong... I can't help it if I am almost always right...
  9. The view point posted above about the club showing they will support players was a good one. Worth £500... As long as indiscipline doesn't start to feed into the squad.
  10. Well after all the :censored: I have just taken for having the correct point of view... Yes, I think I deserve it... A bit of humility from some of the ones who took exception to me having the correct point of view wouldn't go a miss... Including the one who accused me of fishing / trolling.
  11. I never said he wouldn't be any good as a ref. He is a ref. To say he wouldn't be any good as a ref would not make any logical sense. What does change though is the higher you go in the game the more you are expected (more eyes on you) to crack down on tackles where the foot leaves the ground. its fair comment in my opinion. He brought his profession into so it becomes a matter for debate. Specially as (I am guessing) a more qualified person than all of us sent the player off.
  12. Yet you are comfortable with the :censored: comments ? If, as a referee, you are are not going to send off for tackles involving feet leaving the ground then you are not going to get far in the game. The authorities just want it out of the game and other refrees have been demoted for not taking action in the past. The comment was totally on topic. He wanted to validate his opinion by saying he was a referee so at that point it become a point for debate I am afraid.
  13. I am actually very happy in life Its all water off a ducks back when people slag me off
  14. Meh... You know what I don't really care. Its just annoying when someone says to me your slagging people off, singling me out, missing the huge amount of abuse I constantly get regardless. Its all crying wolf. And it just moves away from the points being made. I have been constantly abused since I stopped going to the point I just return fire in a similar way these days. Its all a bit soft to start crying when its given back.
