Bristolatic Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Those of us who can't get BP usually listen to LP whilst exchanging banter and the odd insult in the chat room. Mike Leyland often refers to OWTB in his commentary and one or two of us have been mentioned. During one game (can't remember which one), it was obvious that the good Mr Leyland had his laptop thingy plugged in because he spotted a comment in the chat room. One or two of us have even been daft enough to ask Mike to "give us a wave". It hasn't happened yet. So, one of the chat room topics recently has been, "Who is Mike Leyland?" because, if he visits the board, we assume he will have a user name. On two occasions, we thought we'd sussed him, but we were wrong. So, will the real Mike Leyland please stand up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie_J Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Gordon does away games, Mike the home ones and Roy does the lot. The equivalent to playing Kuqi at home, Simpson away and Smith in every game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolatic Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 https://twitter.com/#!/mickeyjlo Well done, sleuth. We're getting nearer, but I'm damned if I understand this Twitter lark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan up the ladder Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 At the risk of sounding like Alan Partridge (not for the first time), I am Mike Leyland! I'll give you a verbal wave next home game against Scunny if you like? I'm always on here although don't post much, as you'll have seen I've just made my century. I was also preserving a bit of anonimity after starting the Owen Hargreaves thread! I'll take the Kuqi comparison as a complement, thanks. I have a similar tempremant. Not sure what Roy will think about being compared to Smith though!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think you deserve a knighthood for putting up[ with Roy..! But please allow us Latics player listeners more than the occaisonal mention or I will take it all back!!! It will brighten up a crap game, and stop Bob hogging the limelight AS Bristol righlty says, it would be nice to give us a shout every now and then. Cheers I think all 3 of you do a great job Edited February 29, 2012 by singe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolatic Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 Cheers Mike. Really good to know who you are. Got to say that for the likes of many of us who are exiled in various parts of the Universe, Latics Player does a great job in bringing the match action to us. Keep up the good work, give our regards to Roy and Gordy. The usual suspects will be listening in on Tuesday night. I can see Bob asking for a signed photo now. Only kidding Bob.

Fan up the ladder Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Thanks very much for the ass kissing complements singe and bristol, it's really good to know that you enjoy it, and will bear it in mind especially when I find myself stumbling through boring 0-0 draws. I'll happily give you a mention and will keep an eye on twitter @mickeyjlo, and if anyone has any mentions before the game or at half-time I'm sure we can squeeze them in. As for Roy, I think we've improved a bit over the last couple of years in terms of it being a partnership, which he's had with Gordon for many years. However, as you'll have probably heard, I do occasionally find myself finishing his... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
