  1. Leicester already promoted then. Is that good or bad for us ?
  2. I’m guessing that is the home match with Preston on Saturday October 11th 1958. Rovers won 4-1. It looks like Dave Whelan 2 stood by the goal post, Bill Eckersley beyond him and Ally MacLeod beyond Eckersley. Harry Leyland in goal, Mick McGrath in centre ground. Bryan Douglas looking on in the distance. Our scorers were Douglas, Vernon and Whelan 2. I believe Whelan was injured and as was the way when there was no subs back in the day he was moved up front to be a nuisance and he scored twice. Rovers team - Leyland Whelan, Eckersley Clayton, Woods, McGrath Douglas, Dobing, Johnson, Vernon, MacLeod Played in front of a crowd of 39,075 ! That explains the packed Riverside.
  3. I must be TKMaxx’s best customer. One of my favourite purchase’s was a pair of replica New York Cosmos shirts, one home, one away, with the “ Pele “ No 10 letters and numbers sewn on. Brilliant quality, I I can’t recall who made them, it might have been “ Umbro” . They are both out in our flat in Spain at the moment.
  4. Whilst we are on the subject of “ Adidas “ Samba trainers. I bought a pair a while ago. Black leather with a sort of corrugated tongue. They squeak like nothing on earth when you wear them. It’s that bad Mrs Shoelaces has refused to let me wear them when we go out together ! The problem is the tongue. Anybody else come across this issue and if so - how did you cure it ? I’ve tried talcum powder and it only works for so long.
  5. Yeah I bought a “ Yeti “ - it’s a sort of very thin puffer style jacket but made fom some sort of magic ingredients. It’s so warm I can only wear it two months of the year. The rest of the time it’s in my ward robe. They started out making sleeping bags for the German Army. I used to dress really smartly. Nice suits, best quality shirts and ties etc. When you’re were wearing overalls all day it was nice to have a change. I just wear casual stuff now. I’m going out later so I’ll be wearing “ Puma “ Oslo City trainers , dark “ Pantherella “ socks, dark blue “ Wrangler “ jeans ( not distressed or with holes in ! ), “ DSquared “ underpants , a black/brown “ CP Company “ shirt, black “ John Smedley “ sweater, and a thin light blue “ Montane “ sort of zip up rain top. All of those came from TkMaxx apart from the “ John Smedley “ sweater the came from the late and much lamented “ Jenners “ of Edinburgh.
  6. If Coventry play like they did on Sunday in the second half we’ll get nothing. If they play like they did in the first half we’ve got a small chance of getting a result.
  7. Overdose of poison Norbert. The Tokens - He’s In Town
  8. According to the BBC Brighton want Kompany if their current manager leaves. I’m a bit surprised by that, if it’s true of course.
  9. I don’t want to appear to be picking on Gally, nobody is+playing well at the moment, but as you say “ where have the goals gone ? “ He doesn’t even look like scoring a goal. Even Hedges and Siggy were a better bet for a goal.
  10. That’s why I look forward to the international breaks. They can’t ruin that weekend. Crazy isn’t it ?
