It's really good - bright, shiny, new, up to date etc. Good colours too.

Two minor quibbles:

On the threads' index it used to indicate threads on which you had personally contributed a comment. I can't see that now.

On the banner there is a tiny grammatical error, it should be FANS' FORUM (ie with an apostrophe)

But they are minor. It's an improvement and is way above any other fans' forum I've seen.

Virgin Media, featuring leezyverpunk in the RRE and Chris Taylor's celebration near the Ernie Flag, making its guest appearance in the Chaddy End. The Stockport goal is obliterated by a rarely seen sunspot in the Chaddy.

And it's especially clear from this clip how all three goals came after wonderful, creative balls from Windass.

Different class.

Does anyone know what Lee and Stephens are like in training? Maybe they are really lazy and shez doesnt think they deserve a place in the 16.

Lee and Stephens both played 90 minutes in the recent Reserves matches against Walsall and Blackburn.

We didn't score in the defeat by Blackburn, but Stephens scored both goals in our 2-0 victory against Walsall Res.

Didn't their one goal come from their left hand side?

No.

i live facing the ground no sign of any players cars at bp today

So, where could they have been training then? Hmmmmmm

id also drop Whitts completely, put Steptens on the bench instead, if he`s a gooder prospect as people are saying then theres no harm in it.

He's not just gooder, he's one of the goodest!

wonder how it went? hope it hurt a bit, now they know what its like to work sundays. LOL

I believe they trained last Sunday and now this Sunday. I understand it went well today.

my mate's mate was at the team hotel last night staying over for some conference thing, he rang my mate and said ...

I think you'll find this is a "mate of a mate" story.

So we won on corners anyway. At least that's something.

Viv Anderson

 

did David Seaman ever score a OG

That wouldn't be a goal FOR England!

Who was the last player with a moustache to score a goal for England?

 

(David Beckham's attempts at facial hair don't qualify).

Viv Anderson?

I know I know I understand where you are coming from , its more respectful being silent than it is making noise

I was once present at Murrayfield Stadium with a minute's silence for Dunblane at a memorial match for the shooting there. The stadium was full and it was the most emotional experience imaginable.

all that effort for f all

Alan Hardy says ""I would like to mention in particular head groundsman Tony Owen and his helpers who stayed at the ground overnight to watch over the heaters." (official site)

Well done to all - especially Tony.

Less hot water being used in the showers.

Two fewer lunches on Thursdays and Fridays; lower laundry bill; insurance bill down; fewer complimentary tickets given out; less petrol on team bus ... oh hundreds of things!

Just on SSN that he`s been given permission to speak to Hartlepool.

What glorious unison! The 17.12 overture.

Did anyone notice yesterday when they scored there goal that their mascot Terry the Terrier ran straight across the pitch to join in the celebration? Forgive me if im wrong but that is encroaching on the pitch during the game which is punishable with a club fine.

So, no chance of my getting on the pitch to do an impromptu prayer meeting now and again when we're struggling? No, thought not. Ah well. It might have helped!

Can anyone help?

Is it pay on the day tomorrow?

Yes, yes, yes! but the club can't say so because of police concerns.

But it really is.

That is an unofficial update.

pay on the day??

Yes. Back four rows of away stand have been held back.

We scored from a corner twice against Southend.

 

Thanks

 

Statto 2

And once against Stockport (unless you include Chaddy's at halftime too)

Back on track?

Reuben Hazell for me! Kieron Lee a close second, though.

Trust me, the weather will be dry and mild - no excuse for not attending.

Met Office jungle drums this morning say: Light rain, 9º C, wind 8mph southwesterlies, visibility poor.

Perfick!

Just mathematical miracles?

I'm dreaming of an 8-point Christmas. Don't want to ask Santa for too much.

I seem to recall that I did once raise my voice a little and shout "Hallelujah!".

I regretted it immediately.

All over now! 2-1 Defeat but sounded like we gave them a very good game. We had a goal disallowed near the end and one cleared off the line in injury time. Good effort!

Well done lads. A brilliant effort. Especially considering we lost Aaron and Dave Williams was not there either. Just great!
