I still dont think hes done anything wrong. Asif hes gona tip up at barnsley and tell everyone about how he never wanted to be there.

Exactly. I'm a little grumpy about it but that's just because I thought we had a decent manager in Johnson.

He's moved to progress his career - he believes at least - in management. He's done nothing wrong. This is football and, indeed, life.

If he takes Winchester with him I'll spend a week in my room weeping and listening to records.

 

At £2.80p a pop, the only place my pie is going is in my gob.

 

And if only they still did chicken balti pies. They were outstanding.

Ironically I had an excellent chicken balti pie at Oakwell.

 

Best way to make sure we lose that is...

Drop prices for the away fans.

Mike Keegan said he has put in a call to Scholes people and they are normally vey fast to deny knowledge of anything tht isnt true. Unusally he has not had a responce as yet which is why he thinks it may have legs. he also said we hae had 17 notifications of interest before the LJ news was official

Good to know they got my emails.

I've changed my mind. I'd remove my shirt followed by my t-shirt with a picture of little-:censored: (LJs new title) which i'd then piss on. i might get booked, but it would be worth it.

Yeah, maybe.

Neil Adams?

Anyone up for a siege mentality?

I'll take one seige mentality please, with a side of fire in belly.

 

Bale tried to trademark that...

A straight red in that case.

Yet more soap opera nonsense from the Premier League.

 

Celebrations today are ludicrously over the top ........out world superstar raising his hands to the sky last summer after scoring his first and only World Cup goal.... as we lost again.

Pointing to the sky is hardly an ostentatious gesture, and at the time it gave us a way back into the match so was worth celebrating.

Making a little heart shape with your hands; now there's a bookable offence if I ever saw one.

I'd run to the Main Stand paddock and apologise to my dad. Then do a simple fist-pump whilst shouting ":censored:ING HAVE IT!" at the top of my voice.

A real traditionalist.

I'd sprint along the Main Stand touchline twirling my Dukla Prague away shirt over my head, revealing a tee-shirt with "BLOODY HELL EARDLEY" across the front.

do you swap ends at halftime or,is it that you can predict the toss of the coin before kick off.

If it is the latter, would you please give me a hand with my lottery numbers this week.

You are aware we play towards the Chaddy in the second half 99% of the time aren't you..? It's not a happy coincidence.

I'd still take the Champions League.

 

really? i did think we had a ll red away kit since promotion.

 

burgendy rather than red? massive difference in the colours

Oh, well if we're going to say burgundy isn't red I don't want to be involved any more.

Got promoted last time we had a red away kit....just sayin like.

We had a red away kit in 2000-2001 and 2001-2002.

If you knew the things the clubs have helped cover in terms of police matters you'd not be suggesting the clubs have let him down.

Go on...

Wow, never knew that! Reckon it was massively beneficial or?

I believe the backpass was outlawed in order to stop boring time-wasting tactics. A team winning 1-0 could just send the ball to the keeper and he could pick it up and wander around bouncing it for a bit. This came after the wonderfully boring 1990 world cup.

I'm happy to be corrected by someone who wasn't still in nappies at the time though.

I love the 'Ajax style' blue and white kit and I'd pair it with the, ahem, electric orange change strip.

However I am but one man, and it seems there are many that for some reason many don't agree. Now it's not for me to call these people philistines, their opinions count just as much as those that do like these kits.

They're wrong though.

Do we ever beat a Danny Wilson side. Same performance from all his teams. Time waste like fuk, knock the ball long, play for corners, throw ins etc... Did we have a shot on target tonight??

Forte had a cross on target at one point.

It clearly has potential to bring about a conflict of interest though. My example was extreme but say there are four games left and Latics have nothing to play for when they meet Brentford; there's a clear incentive to make sure Brentford get the points towards promotion.

 

Shouldn't be allowed, in my opinion, just as the people involved betting on such things is not allowed.

You make a good point. There's no reason they couldn't just structure deals to depend on appearances I suppose.

Say that we were to play Brentford last game of the season and they needed a win to get promotion...

 

We've got nothing to play for.

 

By winning, we finish one place higher in midtable.

 

By losing, we finish one place lower in midtable and end up £100k better off.

 

Not great for Brentford's promotion rivals.

I suppose it's possible. Unlikely enough not to be a problem though.

Indeed. We know we got an additional payment triggered on Brentford's promotion. How such clauses are allowed, I really don't know.

Why would they not be? Maybe I'm missing some potentially underhand aspects of these deals but they seem fair to me.

Really? I think Royle is one of the worst pundits on telly...

I probably should have said decent pundits for us.

With Royle on board we'd get a bit more coverage than otherwise.

Nevin, Taylor and Royle would be decent pundits for the show.
