I thought about him as soon as i heard the news. Didn't he have a spell at County? if so, he could still have connections with the area.

Norman Kelly. Saw her at Blackburn Think we've struggled with this.

Do people really agree with docking 10 points? i think it is immoral. Who are they punishing? Fans. Players. What about the people really responsible. Look at Risdale. Whatever you think about Leeds is not the point. He took the club down a disasterous path. Ruined them. Then he goes off to Barnsley and Cardiff, Leeds fans suffer. He should be banned. Same thing could so easily have happened to us. Make the fans and players suffer, not the idiots responsible. I feel for Rotherham fans.

Warm balls are reserved for the semis to make sure small clubs are drawn against big clubs. This is, of course, a well known fact ever since the period 1990-94!!!!

Couple of warmed balls in the semi draw!!!

Rings a bell. Cheers.

I remember the Aizlewood challenge. He somtimes does Welsh tele. Can't stand him for doing what he did to poor Frankie. By the way, what was the result of that game? Was it a draw?

'I like cheese.' Ralp Wigam on philosophy.

Didn't Flynn manage to 'accidently' kick Baird in the head from a corner in the same gme, for which he was booked-total accident, of course!!!

I remeber the first game at Hillsborough. We we were in control at 2-0. Sheridan ran the second half. Superb. Finished 2-2.

Don't wash shirt or scarf once weve won until we lose. Then we have to wash out the bad luck!!! They're usually quite clean!!

Agree with all of the above (possible exception of Porter). What about Alan Young? Frankie Bunn? Personal favourites were Ritchie, Stainrod, Palmer and Wilde (and Quinn). Infact, i also liked Halom, and the much maligned Ron Futcher - Royle described him as deceptively slow!!! Loved all of them. Then there were the stikers who didn't quite cut it.Hmmm. McGarvey, Parkin, Banger, Currie (talented lazy S$%t -i'm still fuming about that Schmichel (can't spell) incident.

There may be a one-legged Ronaldo coming available!!!

Denis Iriwn became the best right-footed left back ever. It can be done.

Don't know if this is posted on another thread, but Bridges turned us down on deadline day. Mirror late again!

What about the u-21s? Stretching you now!!!

Talking about the booing.

I still have a memory of at least one of them being capped before the semi-final. Or was it the U-21s? Help!!!!

He's still only 29? He's been around for ages. I always thought he was a very good player, but his injury problems are monumental. Still, worth a punt.

Well, the memory keeps playing tricks. Kids, wife and middle age (and a large amount of alcohol over a long period of time). Stay single and sober (maybe if you stay single there's a better chance of staying sober). I thought it was the cup season, fixtures piling up and Joe ordered a private plane for them both just to help them rest a little. Was it just Milligan?

He's only had three days! The booing was ridiculous. Nervous start - to be expected. Showed bits in the second half. Kept trying to get them to keep it down and play - promising. When they passed and moved from midfield I thought they looked good. But it is very, very early to be passing judgment. Besides, I have a theory. It's very scientific. If you impress in your first game, you then get progressively worse and finish up failing. McClaren, wow great first win. If you don't impress you then slowly get better. Fab, little dull, world cup here we come! Yes, it is a scientific fact as everyone who replies will agree!!! Most frightening thing about last night was the presence of Fab. Is it just me, or did anyone else feel 'oh crap' when he left the bench after five minutes and stood on the touchline. He is the Godfather!!

What about Milligan and Irwin for ROI?

There was an identical incident at Burnley. A lad was stood two steps down, something came over, he turned to his dad and there was this dart sticking out just above his eye. Was it around 1979? Was Steve Kindon playing? It all kicked off afterwards. Bad old days.

85!!! No way. what was that for?

TEN pages now. Please, what is the record???
