  1. What an absolute quality day.

     

    The discussion in our house went along these lines....

     

    Me : Should we go to the rifle range for a couple?

     

    Wife : Why?

     

    Me : Because its the Ernie benefit day and it will be good.

     

    Wife : Sounds ok, who's driving?

     

    Me : I will drive there and have just one then drive home.

     

    Wife : Ok, lets go there then.

     

     

    Now i need to point out that we got there about 3:15pm, had a fantastic day and fell through our front door about midnight. My lad loved it as he was on the pool table most of the night, then i made a complete arse of myself on Karaoke (no change there then) and even woke up the next day to find out i had bought a stereo system in the auction which i deffinately didnt need but hey ho, its all for a good cause.

     

    The paracetomol even made an appearance yesterday morning as i was so rough.

     

    Good turn out by the ex players as well. Stitch, Johnny Eyre, John Hallworth, Dux, Tony P. (sorry if ive missed any) and even Ernies wife turned up which i thought was the perfect touch for a great day.

     

    Well done to the organisers.

     

     

    Anything interesting come out of the Simon Corney Q&A?

  2. Falling over all the time has nothing to do with hitting a ball high or low. Today he looked un-interested, lathargic and way off the pace! Wolfy came on and looked lively and chased balls.

     

    And calling people a moron who disagree with your view :lol: sign of real intelligence!

     

    The majority of our best performances this season have been when Alessandra has played from the start, Leeds away, Scunthorpe at home etc...

     

    I agree that I should not have said that anyone who thinks that Matty Wolvenden is a better footballer than Lewis Alessandra is a moron but I believe Lewis is far more talented.

  3. I must be watching a different team.

     

    I agree mate I thought Lewis played well, when you play it to his feet he is brilliant but some of the people on here dont understand if you hit the ball to him 60 feet in the air against a 6ft centre half he aint going to win it and anyone who thinks Wolvenden is a better footballer than him is a moron.

  4. I followed Oldham everywhere before the fans were stabbed in the back by Jim Quinn and the council, Watersheddings WAS Rugby League in Oldham for me, when it met its demise and RL came to BP the writing was on the wall. Although I regularly go and watch Oldham, it is not the same and I have had serious personal grievances with Hamilton which has meant another nail in the coffin for my allegiance to my local team. Oldham is grossly overpriced for 3rd division Rugby for the price of an extra pint you can watch the top-class players in Super League (although way off the Aussies) - my Season Ticket at saints was £119.

     

    Great answer I can't argue with any of that, sad day for this town when they knocked Watersheddings down.

  5. Although Barrera is the much older and smaller man ( think its only his second fight at the weight ) I still think he will win. He has the heart of a lion and the boxing skills not to get knocked out and over the course of the fight he will catch Khan and his awful chin will be exposed again.

     

    On a slight off topic I saw an interview with Barrera years ago about his fight with Hamed, late on in the fight after giving Hamed a boxing masterclass he was roughing him up and whispering in his ear ( very unlike Barrera but he had been taunted before the fight by Hamed ), he was asked what he said to him, Barrera replied " you are my bitch "
