  1. Ooooh Roger Palmer !!! Roger Palmer - Marry-ju-arna Tra-la-la-la-la Our all time goal scoring record holder - FROM MIDFIELD
  2. Can someone post the link and a plea for help on the Brighton Rivals site?
  3. Just e-mailed the editor of FootyMAD Brighton - hopefully we can get all the Brighton fans to support us after what they have had to endure with councils / government / planning etc.
  4. I am on - 938 at 08:25 (Wierd, my name is on, but the number has not increased (yet))
  5. Actually, the word FAN derives from FANATIC (A person marked or motivated by an extreme, unreasoning enthusiasm, as for a cause.) or FANATICAL (Possessed with or motivated by excessive, irrational zeal.) The key part of these definitions are UNREASONING and IRRATIONAL. So, I am afraid that if you choose not to go to a game then you are NOT A FAN. I am not having a go, becuase I don't go to all games home and away, but I consider myself to be a Latics SUPPORTER. I support my team financially and vocally. Those who don't go to the games, but will always watch every match on the telly - read the reports in the papers etc. to me are FOLLOWERS. They follow the fortunes of the team via the media, but do not financially SUPPORT the team and are not true FANS. So I am sorry, but I don't think that you are a fan at all - never mind a SUPERFAN. This does not mean that you are not welcome, cannot have a view or anything similar.
  6. Come on Rick, you know that you could never get clean after that - no matter how much you scrub !!!!
  7. Typical Ginger Whinger.....I bet he would go if we ended up playing Doncaster in the Final at Wembley..... We are probably better off without the fair weather supporters anyway
  8. "Though he could hardly be labelled as a long-ball merchant......." HOOOOOFFFF Someone drug test that Journo
  9. Rick

    rallying cry

    No, let's hope we get Beckett in on loan !!!
  10. It makes a big difference when the manager or players give positive feedback about the support. Different Class !!
  11. Not personal - I am the old fat one on the back row last night
  12. I agree - it was a brilliant performance both on and off the field. Glad I kept the faith afterall !!
  13. I am going. Not sure why I put myself through it, but I'll be there!! Keep the faith
  14. He used to be landlord at the Crown and Shuttle in Firgrove (between Milnrow and Rochdale). He took a football in to the club and had it signed for my Dad. I got it as a Christmas present - must have been in the 1970s. Unfortunately, me and my brother played football with it all of Christmas Day and all the signatures had rubbed off on the carpet by Boxing Day
  15. On a serious note though, I boycotted Huddersfield a copule of seasons ago after they boycotted BP due to the price of admission. Some HT fans are calling for a boycott because they are fed up with the owners and football versus rugby debate that has gone on for many years.
  16. Something to do with their lovers being used in the Lamb Hotpot served in the Exec Boxes?
  17. Rick

    Reuben Hazell

    Sign Hazell and loan Thompson out to Leeds - before it is too late!!!
  18. Match postponed - due to LATICS having too many International Call Ups !!!
  19. But there is no BOVRIL?? You'll be telling me that you are not hearded around by the Police and Stewards next...
  20. ......give everyone an Ecstasy when they enter the ground? At least we wouldn't be as upset when we lose..... (There was only one emoticon that could go after such a suggestion)
  21. As long as you don't go as far as sharpened coins, golf balls with nails through or darts, I think that you should be OK. PS ........ Do they serve Bovril at Football matches in Thailand?
