  1. I have a list of celebrities who died in 2020. There are 55 of them; only the ones I had heard of, out of the many more. It's fascinating how many are film and TV stars, Bond movies' stars and loads of footballers. If anyone wants me to list them I will, if I can find the time and if the Mods approve.
  2. Does anyone know what is happening at the Nabs Head, Samlesbury? We went there a few weeks ago. It was a bit strange but the beer was ok and the food was good. Then it closed down again for some reason. Yesterday I read somewhere that it was due to open again in August. What is going on?
  3. Someone needs to tell Dolan to stop the silly step-overs. It is body swerve that confuses a defender. Get him to watch videos of Maradona, another small player, and try to copy him.
  4. There are three and a half pages of former youth players. I cannot find Phil Jones in there. Also I don't understand numbers of league games played when the have the likes of Dunn at 58.
  5. Rovers are extremely quiet on EVERYTHING.
  6. Quite young really. When we used to go down to the Good Food Show in Birmingham we stayed at the Arden Hotel near the NEC. One morning he was in the breakfast dining room chatting with the chef. RIP Trev.
  7. If you get the 152, don't make the mistake my mate did when hurrying to Ewood to watch a match. He got off in Feniscowles at The Feildens Arms to walk the "short" journey to Ewood. Only after did he realise what a hell of a long road Livesey Branch Road is. I think he missed the first 20 minutes. 😂
  8. Where did I get "Two gentlemen of Girona" from?
  9. The 152 Put on a good curry and you might entice Venkys over.
  10. Oh SHIT!!! If this is true then we really do need Venkys to go.
  11. And your membership pack is.................. One wash bag, one pair socks, one key ring. Not even a cheap bottle of wine from Whalley 😩
  12. Coral have us at 13th. They actually have Ipswich and Sheff Wed above us. I think we'll finish top 6 providing we get a good CF or two. My problem is every time I forecast Rovers to do well they always let me down. So my final word is bottom 6. Does that make sense?
  13. Hope you are ok. Get well soon, Fella.
  14. Mowbray did his best for us but, in the end, it wasn't good enough. Glad we have GB and JDT now. Armstrong looks great in that video but what happened to him at Southampton?
  15. I'd call 'em "the shites" myself.
  16. My prediction for the final league table of 23/24 Foxes Rovers Saints Boro Hornets Peacocks Potters Throstles Sky Blues Black Cats Tractor Boys Lions Swans Canaries Robins Owls Lilywhites Tigers Big Club QPR Terriers Bluebirds Pilgrims Millers
  17. Potter would be a hell of a lot better than Ince
  18. I agree with Miller. I've signed up and it's such a pleasure to have no annoying ads.
  19. I was about to recommend The Black Horse, Friargate, Preston. Not only is it a Robinsons pub but it is well worth visiting for the nostalgia of what a pub of yesteryear was like. It's a superb preserved building both inside and out. Not to be confused with The Black Bull which is opposite Greyfriars Wetherspoons.
  20. The French, Italian and Mexican national anthems are great to dance to. But our anthem has dignity. So does the anthem of Japan. My favourite is Hungary.
  21. There was a recent game (I say "recent", must have been in the last 10 years) when Rovers were away and scored a glorious team goal. The commentators counted the number of passes that Rovers made before scoring. Can't think who it was against. Maybe a Yorkshire team?
  22. Ours is a superb national anthem. It's not an entry for the Eurovision Song Contest.
  23. Home again on Good Friday. ☹️ Why can't we be away for once.
  24. Is it worth discussing Britain's Got Talent on here? I have only ever voted in the final twice. The first time I was determined to vote Susan Boyle but instead voted for the superb dance troop known as Diversity and they won. This year the final was made up of really good acts but this fella with the balloon had me laughing all the time. I saw his audition but missed the semi final. So, not expecting him to win, I voted for him. I was quite shocked when he won. Since then I keep watching on You Tube his three performances and cannot stop laughing. What will he do next? I'm obviously not in the minority because he won but people like Graham Liver on Radio Lancs don't agree.
