  1. Who is this Ibby who keeps posting stupid comments ont'Owdam Times about Unsworth ? Sounds like a two year old.
  2. Steady on now BD, this is Latics. We're used to let downs. Let's just hope we don't lose the first six games and then take it from there. Shall we say comfortably out of the bottom four by Christmas ?
  3. Yeah but not enough points gained, Unsworth out.
  4. Hasn't won a game for weeks, Unsworth out.
  5. Oh the luxury of being able to pay fees and pick and choose the perceived better players. What ? Am I dreaming ?
  6. Me too, I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes.
  7. That's why summer holidays were invented don't you know, so people could avoid it.
  8. Not many people know this but cricket was actually invented by an immigrant German medic called Professor Borrrin Fokker who created cricket as a cure for insomnia and won a Nobel prize. His great great grandson went on to coach Geoffrey Boycott.
  9. I don't remember his spectacular goals. What I do remember is a match against City reserves, Manchester Senior Cup maybe when he tackled a young city striker and bundled him into the advertising boards. Slightly more subtle than a Glasgow Kiss but not by much.
  10. I was in the pub last night and heard a whisper that we've landed Messi. Turns out the deal clincher was the "all you can eat" tapas deal at La Salsa in Heyside/Royton.
  11. I wasn't going to mention that but I vaguely recall there being something in the paper about that some years after i'd left school.
  12. Nobby Clarke wasn't a bad lad either. If he passed by when we were having a cig round the backs of the houses at dinnertime he'd stop and have a chat. Another teacher made me put my cig out once. A cig was a valuable item in those days.
  13. Yeah but there was more to it. As soon as he was stopped he told us to clear off. There was something in the Chron about it sometime later.
  14. Charlie Cook gave me and my mate a lift into town one afternoon after school in his minivan. He went through a red light and got pulled up by a copper on foot who was directing traffic. He got fined, not sure what for but maybe no insurance/mot and maybe no license.
  15. One of us must be confused then unless nicknames were changed. Batman was a Mr Anderson, the English teacher.
  16. It used to amaze me how Budge survived a lesson without having a heart attack and how that little stool he used to sit on never collapsed is one of lifes mysteries.
  17. I was a little surprised the ref didn't make Norman change his top as it was almost identical to the Bromley kit but maybe he was colour blind or just blind like most of the other refs we seem to get.
  18. Thanks, I always knew you had a hidden soft spot in there.
  19. So what's the odds of Torquay beating Wrexham 6 - 0 with a Stobbs first half hat-trick followed by a Stobbs second half hat-trick and Gateshead beating Maidenhead 6 - 0 to save Torquay's season and Stobbs being awarded the freedom of Torquay.
  20. So my Saturday tea time doesn't count for nuffin then. I think i'll be ringing the BBC Actionline.
  21. Does anyone know why we're all kicking off at 17:30 ? Seems odd to me and it really buggers up my Saturday tea time of 19:00.
