  1. 2 towns of not hugely different size. I'll take our last 30 years and our next over theirs any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
  2. That's a great typo pal, and clearly what we've been missing this season. Building team spirit by getting the grub in.
  3. Indeed. I remember at one point in the 1-0 win at BP Ferguson moved Giggs to full back in the knowledge that Fleming would follow him and create gaps further forward. He did as well.
  4. Perhaps they're adopting the Joe Royle approach.
  5. Not sure I'm the right person to extol the virtues of private education having suffered it myself (last year of direct grant politics fans, I certainly wouldn't have gone had I been a year younger). I can comment on right to buy (I assume that's what you mean) which is the most divisive, vicious policy even Thatcher and her followers managed to come up with (and boy did they try). I have also never stated the offer from this (again I assume you mean Oldham) Labour is "crap" but if it is (which it isn't) it's due to the Tory government's desire to hammer northern Labour councils with plainly unfair settlements. Let's sign Ched though eh?
  6. But the pig incident is generally portrayed in the media as as posh boy high jinks whilst Abbott (who I'm no apologist for btw) is treated with utter contempt for making a decision (presumably) in the best interests of her children. Of course the Bullingdon boys (particularly vicious right wing :censored: like Osborne and Johnson) can never be treated as hypocrites for betraying their principles because they have none worth betraying. Cameron oddly I find relatively benign compared to the other two.
  7. I'm not sure being Oxbridge educated precludes socialist belief, though it does tend to throw out more than its fair share of Bullingdon club toffs - I make no judgement about whether it's more shameful for a socialist to send her children to a private school or for silver spoon morning suit wearing socialites to spend their student years trashing restaurants. Interesting that the former attracts much more media attention than the latter though, wonder why that is?
  8. Ah the old chestnut always brought out against the left. Interesting that it's almost never used against the right. I've always wondered if that's because their principles mean it's almost impossible to shame them.
  9. Allegedly the first paper Thatcher picked up every morning was the Morning Star. One of the few things she was right about was it's good to know what the enemy is thinking.
  10. I'm going to pretend the last month never existed. What the :censored: are we doing signing players who aren't good enough for Burton. Not good enough. Corney out. Etc. Etc.
  11. Wonderful stuff that! Some brilliant kits back then too - special mention (where is he?) to the Everton Amber and blue away effort at Coventry - even better than Ernie Hunt's donkey kick.
  12. 3 wins in 5 games after 3 in 28. Makes quite a difference having a manager that knows what he's doing. 1 point from safety!
  13. His terms do require him to complete the season. He's ours!
  14. Agreed - his performance in the first leg of the play off at Elland Rd was one of the finest centre half displays I've ever seen.
  15. And mine is that he offered nothing in terms of industry or endeavour, in stark contrast to the bloke he replaced. Fortunately we live in a society where we are allowed to hold different views. I respect yours, please feel free to continue treating mine with contempt. You won't be alone.
  16. I would agree with that assessment. Certainly a contrast to Murphy when he came on who only appeared interested in running when the ball came anywhere near him and only then to run away from it.
  17. Wouldn't mind both! Baxter will score more but f&@" me Burton must have some midfield if Palmer can't get in it. Quality that lad.
  18. If the story that Baxter glassed a young Accrington player is true and that's the reason for his suspension, would this materially affect the desire for his return?
