Big mouth, always calling him "liner", really unfunny? 

Sounds about right mate.

Also a woman, who until recently abused everybody on the pitch (usually the referee and “Liner”) but is now pretty quiet after being politely told to shut the f*ck up.

Please can those in the north stand, chaddy end side, get their eyes tested. People abusing the lino even though he pretty much got everything spot on. Some said their goal was offside, he was about 5yrds on. Fucking jokers, gets on my tits. Like being sat with united fans, claiming for every decision, even though its obvious the correct decision was made. 

Don’t know how far down you’re sat, but there’s three “older” people a couple of rows behind me and they’ve been getting on my tits since we moved to the North Stand.

Insanely bias and not a clue about football (or the rules for that matter.) Never seem to please them.

The drum is alright at big games, even when used in moderation to start songs etc.

It does get tedious, though, after a while. Last time I was anywhere near it was at Curzon Ashton, don’t think it stopped for the entire game.

People who are moaning on here about the drum and George are a bunch of sad fucks. Embarrassing thread. These lads go week in week out, they bring the atmosphere to games.

Proper insightful, that. Thanks for your fantastic contribution.

Opening of the “fans bar” has been postponed on safety grounds.

Why does it cost money to start new threads?

Message posters won't realistically forever track back to look for similar threads, some going back months even years.

To say give it a rest will only drive members away, which IMO defeats the object.

 

 

The search function is quite useful though, BP.

Back to the draw, Chesterfield away would be the one - maybe Lincoln too.

We should be getting 10 000 in for massive games like this.

Come on Monty, aim higher.

There shouldn't be an empty seat in the ground...

Simon Grayson has just been sacked by Sunderland.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him take charge at Bury.

Same thing. Without him we'd have been relegated. His record speaks for itself.

Whilst I don't disagree that without him, we'd have been a lot worse off... He wasn't the sole reason for survival.

He went back to Burton mid-way through that relegation scrap.

So you watched Oxford, Burton, Walsall and Wigan and saw potential? Jesus Christ.

 

Gerrard getting constantly skinned, Clarke playing despondently, The defence having no confidence in Ben Wilson who flapped at everything. You had Holloway playing with lead in his boots, the midfield standing off and Banks strolling around the pitch. McLaughlin couldn’t beat a man. Nothing but long balls with no winning of the second ball.

 

You are utterly clueless if you saw potential in those games and I suggest you go back and watch them

I don't wish to engage in the whole-length debate, it's been covered, we were pretty shit, then we signed Doyle, Byrne and Bryan... along with the foreign lads.

However, McLaughlin was outstanding the first few games of the season.

If it was Barraclough, I suspect he’ll have been scouting for Scunny.

 

Maybe Shirtliff is still a possibility then?

Barraclough probably came to have a look at Dummigan, assuming that NI u21s have an international coming up.

Looking to take my old man on Tuesday, he needs the car though whereas I walk in. Apart from the main car park, does anyone know if the hospital or b&q still allow sneaky parking?

Don't know whether it's too much of a walk, but always loads of space on Elk Mill.

Jesus, if we do get them I hope he beats us. The way he was treated was awful.

Should never have been hired in the first place.
