  1. Agreed BP at that time the BBC paid peanuts to cover a game. It was only when Sky came in covering games that clubs started to be paid reasonable fees.
  2. I disagree with you that our crowds where 9000. They only reached that after Brannagan and Lister had been signed from City. A few games after which we signed Bobby J. I also disagree with you that at that time players such as Bill Spurdle and Bobby J where mercenaries. They came at the end of their careers to a club where they would be able to give something back into football not to become millionaires, like the Rooney's of this world. These days players have no loyalty to a club anymore.
  3. Maybe he will go back to Barcelona for retraining. Hehe
  4. Rubbish Bobby J was a full Scottish International with experience in the top flight of English and Scottish football. He played for Man City and Hibs and also played for City in a cup final at Wembley . In his day he was a fantastic talent so much so that people would travel miles to watch him. Our crowds went from 6000 to 17,000 every home game overnight. I suppose that if you had a comparable player from the Premier in his twilight years you could give an example of Wayne Rooney deciding to come from Everton to play for us for peanuts, instead of going to America for mega bucks. In that respect of players now being greedy I can agree with you, it was a different era , however players then where more into putting more into the game at the end of their careers, than being money grabbing mercenaries.
  5. The sooner an experienced number two is appointed the better it should be the first signing on the agenda. Wellens and the new assistant can then work on getting a few quality players of good attitude into the club.
  6. Me too he scored some great goals from the right wing and similarly Whitaker on the left wing. If only we had such wingers today.
  7. Really Since 1895 you must be the oldest supporter that we have then. No wonder you don't attend games I bet you are bed ridden.
  8. Maybe yes however we didn't have Edmundson and Hamer playing for us in defence
  9. I have supported Wellens up to now but after he brought Lightweight Benyu on I realised he had lost it. He should go as well as Terry. Al should bring in an experienced lower division manager in who has had success at that level. We don't want AL bringing in a foreign manager and more foreign imports. Or get Scholes in with an experienced number 2.
  10. It's only a Game get over it and regroup next season
  11. Let's hope so come on you Tangerines
  12. It’s simple really . Dale can win on Saturday and to be honest i think they will, however if we are going to stay up we need to win at Northampton. We have beat them 5-1 earlier this season so they are not unbeatable and our manager should be telling our team carry on where you left off in that last game, and score another 5.
  13. You believe what you want from this shitty article and I will reserve my judgement until after Saturday
  14. Even though you have made mistakes in trying to rewrite the article the context of the article is obviously a destabilising technique to get at our manager and team before Saturday. Come on you blues you can stuff Northampton if you all concentrate on your football and not on such f-Ing articles in the press or should I say shitty gutter press.
  15. Don’t want to if that’s the standard of journalism. Looks like a destabilising attempt by Keith Hill at Rochdale.
  16. The article is complete and utter buckshit. Looks like a young kid has written it. Didn’t realise Shez was still on the payroll
  17. If these are the exact words of the article it’s badly written . Since when did Corney sell the club to Corney. A defeat of 3-20 to Southend would have really dented our goal average. What a load of bullshit. REALLY???????
  18. Or a disgruntled player suspended by the Chairman. I do'nt think its the manager because if it was AL would see to it that he never works again in football
  19. Well to me its obvious who's ran to the press. There is one big disgruntled player at the club at the moment who's been suspended by the chairman F---E Its an easy guess.
  20. I’ve tried chrome and safari and it’s still not working
  21. Well has anybody else experienced the same problem. Makes you wonder if people cannot vote how they can make an award. Perhaps the directors decide.
