This was a link on the BBC football home page the other day BBC He had a child the same day, what a way to celebrate and remember it!!

So they reckon they will get over £20m for him?? Don't mean to go into again like we have a million times, but, how much you reckon he's worth now, £8m? Just under £2m would do very nicely...

Suppose so, drinking started much earlier, but could have saved a wasted trip to Rochdale in the rain as was staying in Manchester, could have had a night out in the Printworks or whatever, but wasn't in the mood after, I only got to Rochdale about 7pm and had checked online on phone and seen Rochdale said it would be on!

Could have been worse... £80 flight from Isle of Man, £42.50 Travelodge, 2 days off work, plus the obvious expense of tickets, trains, taxis, booze!!! Saw a Rochdale fan and the plane as well! Not please but what are you gonna do

Back to my point sorry, but where is everyone heading? Cheers

Strolling through town on the Isle of Man, seen a sign outside the book shop: RICK HOLDEN'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY IN STOCK And so it was! Didn't even know one was on the cards, anyone had a read yet or has it literally just come out? Book Shall ask for one for my birthday!

Heading over for the match with my bird for her first ever match, and a couple of mates. It's my birthday on the 2nd. Where will most be drinking then, Ratcliffe Arms??

Link Wonder how he'd do??

Eh?

He has his own website!!! Despite only playing about 10 senior games and being 22.... Boro / Latics legend

I remember when he played Latics in the Isle of Man tournament, I was getting autographs and was stood on his untied bootlace. He tried to walk away and nearly decked it, and turned to me in the strangest voice ever "You're standing on my shoe lace". Was at the last ever City v United derby at Maine Road with my mum, and a girl in front of me had 'LEGAL 16' on the back, nice... Also on holiday, a dad who supported Leek Town had a shirt with 'DAFT 1' on the back, he thought he was a hoot, I thought he was a to5ser. Over the years, had Pointon Murray Hall Eyres Duxbury Eardley Liddell and my name

I don't post on here that often but read all day at work and when at home. I don't post most of the time because I rarely get to games to comment on, and don't get many inside scoops! So in a sense if I left I would hardly be missed. But I really am getting fed up of a lot of this forum. Some of it is brilliant, e.g. knowing Paul Dickov was manager a long time before he was, and I'm not blaming the running of it at all. It's just 2 or 3 posters, and you probably know who I mean, who just seem to come on just to wind people up, and have nothing better to do. We're supposed to be fans of the same club! Fair enough when a different fan from another club comes on etc. I hate it when people just make up rumours, for no reason. Ridiculous ones too. I hate it when people say they have spoke to someone at the club, when they haven't. I hate it when people state facts when it's not, e.g. such and such will be named manager Monday. There's just no need to lie! I love reading the real rumours, that people have heard, but I often can't tell now because it is awash with bullplop. The worst thing is when people state all these facts etc, when they get asked about it when it never comes true, they just say "ah well it's just a bit of fun didn't harm anyone", why say it then? We go on here to find stuff out, not read out and out bobbins! I also hate when English is terrible, typos are fine, but disjointed sentences that don't make any sense just make it annoying to read and again there is no need. I never correct anyone on here before anyone says anything, but I know it annoys a lot of others too! This is a minor annoyance though compared to the other rubbish.

Looks like your wet dream was a pipe dream. Scunny away. Draw

Wasn't everyone raving about him last pre season? Wonder what went wrong?

Ask him yourself OWTB member The Chaplain

They already have 4 subs, what's all that about? Or is he back up keeper? Reserves squad

Dunno where Hallworth lives, but he visits often according to my co worker. And yes Rick lives in Peel, if not he's there a hell of a lot! Douglas yes

Ta. I seem to be similar to Zorrro in names but question answered. Dunno on the left either, wasn't sure on Redfeard or Adams. The man I wanted confirmation on was Jon Hallworth. He comes over to the Isle of Man regularly to see Rick Holden apparently, woman next to me in work also works in a pub in Peel, where he lives. Jon is a Guinness drinker incase anyone wondered!

Can someone do me a favour and tell me who is who in the photo from the fishal? I know some but the photo is pretty small and they are obviously a bit different from playing days! Cheers

Defo not in it, on OS. Glad in a way, thought because I'd contacted them a few times and they hadn't replied, that we weren't going. So booked a weekend in Manchester weekend before! Masters Knockout

Obviously. They cannot go up a division, and it is there aim to stay there! Any league below has the option to be promoted as well as relegated.

After ending their 30+ year stay in the bottom division, are we the record holders for the longest time without going up or down in the bottom 3 leagues? If (when!) we stay up, won't that be our 15th season since going down in 1997?

I'm not happy with the current situation, and am by no means a 'Penney out' person, but this is a manager plenty of people have mentioned. Obviously looking for a job nearer to home in Stockport. BBC link Should we swoop whilst we have the chance? Managed at this level well before, has promotion under his belt, working on small budget.

STRIKER LEAVES ON LOAN DEAL Woo, good source that man at the start!
