Thursday 14th June 2011

A Rotherham United employee is this morning recovering in hospital............ he kept repeating "i gave him that Le Fondre information in good faith"..........before lapsing back into unconsciousness

Tell you what there is some people up their own arses on here! Its a forum site where if you here some news you write it, so what your saying is unless it's one of the the guys wishing they knew someone worth knowing who sits by his computer pressing F5 every minute writes it no one else should know anything! Very sad If you ask me!

I find this very refreshing! what does F5 do?

Hey, Sly I got told by my reliable sauce at the club we'd signed a "belter" called Dan Taylor.

This was last night (Saturday) and they we're adamant this news hadn't even been issued by the club on Latics World.

I just couldn't stop laughing all night.

 

Ian G.

Haha G(&)T then!

Harry Kewell has quit Melbourne Victory, citing personal reasons for leaving the Hyundai A-League club.

It is understood Kewell was on the verge of signing a new two-year contract, in excess of $1 million a season, but made the stunning decision to reject Victory's offer for family reasons.

Kewell's Mother-in-Law is ill, so he is going back to UK.

 

The Australian A league is League one standard. I saw Kewell play the odd time. He was above the standard of the league (and better than Brett Emerton who also plays A-League).

 

Doubt if he is PD’s type, or in the Latics pay bracket, but he will be another of the unemployed UK footballers looking for a job this coming season.

A moneybags league 1 club might make a punt on him.

I don’t think he could do a full English season without breaking down

If I was one of the many out of contract players, I might be employing an Oz agent about now!

No apparently a lot of that was filmed in the dale though.

Is it me or has this turned into something in need of its own thread?

Going for the full half hour now?

Tom Finney has just turned 90 though to be fair.

 

Bless his little heart, he ran around a lot. Couldn't fault his effort. Just struggled with the 'take the ball with you and cross it' part of the job. Hope it works out for him at Grimsby, he was a trier if nothing else.

 

Am i right in thinking we paid more for him than we did for Furman?

This is the Joe Colbeck , I remember!.

A cross country runner but no footballer!

Basically, This application is an Outline Application for an agreement in principle to do the desired building works. The meeting at which the agreement was made, was held on 20/06/12.

The decision made at this meeting will be available to the general public, i.e. us, when the involved parties want us to know!

There will be toing and froing and amendments, etc. but once agreed in principle, it means things start moving, investors can move funds about etc. with less fear of it all collapsing into crap

Most Applicants engage in both stages of the Planning Process - Outline Planning Permission (OPP) and Detailed Planning Permission (DPP). The reason this is the case is obvious in that it saves the Applicant the expense of having detailed and expensive plans drawn up in advance of the applicant even being aware whether it is even possible to build on the land. It is possible to go straight to an application for Detailed Planning Permission, but be aware of incurring possibly hefty abortive design costs in doing so.

These are the important dates

Blatter has said he doesnt want the game to be interrupted by looking at TV replays which would stop the flow. Kind of like rugby which I think has it sorted. If the ref or linesmen arent sure then a fourth official decides. This can be replicated at pretty much every football league ground that is being filmed.

 

If Hawkeye can send a signal to the ref within a second then that's fair enough, but it needs 30-odd cameras around the pitch as opposed to one. Giving a fourth official a monitor still relies on human judgement, but just gives them the benefit of a second look, which would have sorted the Ukraine incident, and the Chelsea goal in the FA Cup semi. But for an incident that we had away at Bournemouth it wouldnt be solved and you get on with the game. (might be wrong match but i know we had a shout that I remember PD being annoyed about).

 

On a side note, how do the failed fifth officials make a decision, if any? They've got them batons but they never even give corners/goal kicks.

Are they a de-flagged linesman buzzer stick?.

How far back in the passage of play do you go?

 

If you're just assessing the goal-line then Ukraine equalised.

 

If you step back to the offside, they didn't.

 

Let's, for argument sake, say the referee missed a trip on Rooney at the other end of the pitch 15 seconds before Ukraine broke clear. Does the decision become a penalty to England at the other end?

 

I think it is time for such technology. But how it's used in conjunction with TV pictures needs to be carefully thought through.

I would submit, just the goal line howler decisions, the rest remains as is.

The bigger problem for my money, is the hatred for anything English, within UEFA and by Sepp Blatter

As with crickets 'Hawk-eye' the only ones that maybe need eradicating, are the absolute howlers. So if the ball's just clipping the stumps, it stays with the original 'on field' decision.

So to achieve this within football, the technology is already there. ie, the 4th official who has access to a tv monitor, could just buzz the ref. In the same way that linesman do. Any marginal ones that require several angled views, etc. could just remain with the on field decision.

This argument only exists because too much football is on television. It is over-analysed to a point where the cliche-ridden drivel is boring.

 

As Oldham fans, we would never know (in most cases) if the ball has crossed the line because we don't see it.

 

The way I look at it is as soon as it is introduced it'll eventually grow to cover most aspects of the game because what occur more: incorrect decisions when the ball crosses the line or offside goals?

 

We live in a bizarre era where if there's technology we MUST have it. The simple fact is we don't even know what we're arguing for. It is the broadcasters that wish to grip an audience and controversial decisions are loved by them and the rest of the media empire.

 

I'm a resounding no to GLT.

Saw that one, along with everyone else,except the ref, in the FA Cup replay at Maine Road, against the scum

I think it is total horse:censored:. There is so much cheating, diving, feigning injury, bad tackling and so on, affecting every game, that to my mind these once a season events are a total irrelevance. Besides, with the only other two instances where it would have been applied this tournament the officials got decisions bang on.

 

Waste of energy by a useless governing body. I'd rather see them get offsides right, which would have rendered yesterday's events null and void anyway.

 

While on rant too by the way - both Germany and Spain through on the back of penalties not given? Again I'd look at that rather than cameras in the goal.

WTF are these extra 5th? officials their for. They just seem to take their money and keep schtum

Trouble is that when we played him as a LW he played like a prototype Joe Colbeck though!

I agree. Hence, the LW by stealth approach, I mentioned, when he thinks he's a LB, he is in fact a decent LW!.

I still don't think Colbeck was even a footballer!!!!!!!! Think he was handed a kit by mistake.

 

Two leftbacks? It sounds like a Dave Penney wet dream.

Haha. He does actually tend to play as a LW rather than a LB though (I hated Dave Penney)

Think it actually shows how much Barry cares about his role & the club, that an article announcing he's battling the big C also carries a note he might not be as prompt with his correspondance from fans.....

 

Leave the football matters Barry and focus on the health battle; far, far more important. Bill Shankly said football was more important than life & death. It isn't. Focus on getting better rather than replying to fan emails.......

 

All the best for fight Barry; get well soon.

Sly

Yep, remember being a ripped a new one on his debut at Stockport County

I imagine that is something that is going to stay with you, a memory that is going to be hard to shake. But do you remember how he played?

That list shows the folly of fans moaning about our team, two months before the season starts!!!

Agree. Looks like SC is correct to wait awhile, there's going to be a few of those players who will have to lower their expectations, if they want to continue being pro footballers.

Also, I don't remember him keeping us up one season.

 

Maybe we're getting confused with what happened on Champo...

Leave him alone. He's a very good driving instructor. He works for Latics driving school and got two of my sons to pass their driving test!

Great news. Should stay fitter after the shoulder operation as well. With Furman our 'Yard Dogs'. Just need a Barlow and Holden now!

Wonder if he was on PD's list of 40 players? or an impulse signing?

Wish him well, re the twitter comments, he's only a kid deserves another chance.
