Thanks for bringing that to my attention. I'll record it but watch the final on BT You tube.?

There, but for the grace of God, go us.

I agree. He doesn't creep and try to be PC. He tells it as it is, just like an ordinary fan would.

I don't mind City doing well up to now. I can remember them always being in the shadow of United. I remember them being in the second tier several times and even in the third tier. Always the true Manchester club with mainly local supporters. Another few seasons of this, though, and they'll be right up my nose.

Annoyed me intensely that the stupid commentator referred to us as Blackburn and not Blackburn Rovers. There is one hell of a difference between the two. Also he couldn't pronounce Bury correctly. Glad City didn't set a new record of 7. They could only equal us and Bury. Guardiola has improved him wonderfully. Most other managers could not have. City would not be as good as this under most other managers.

My only social media (apart from an email list). I visit usually daily. (Since 2001) Great work by the admin and mods. Much appreciated. Thanks to all contributors, particularly for so little swearing. This shows class. I love the podcasts.

I can't wait for next season when the magnificent Ben Gladwin leads us to automatic promotion earning himself a deserved player of the year.

Penalty shoot out coming up. Come on the Villa.

Thanks, Stuart. I've just wikied him. He made 9 appearances for Barrow in 2017, 0 appearances for Accy Stanley in 2018 and 15 apps scoring 2 goals for Southport in 2019. Why send a player on loan to a club (Accy S ) who will never play him?

I was hoping for contribution from people who know the under 23s better than me. e.g.Parson Blue, Stuart, Hollowsr etc.

Rovers official site says of players out on loan, "on loan". Plenty of information there. Perhaps I should ignore the official web site and use the reliable Wiki. Sorry that you're ? key got stuck.

And?????? Where has he been on loan? Will he be going out on loan again? He's a left back, right? Is he good enough to challenge the awful Bell for that spot? I certainly hope so.

Won more league championships (6) than us (3) That's how it seems to work.

How many are Catalan?

Don't go to sleep on your sofa.?

By the way, who are Clapton Rovers? Do they play in the Burnley and district Sunday league?

I arrived at the main stand about 10 minutes before kick-off and it looked pretty full to me. I managed to get a seat on its own between people. There didn't seem that many available. Doesn't fit in with your photo, though.

We're into May now. April 1st was a while ago.

First half Burnley were better than us. They have some big lads at the back and two tricky wingers. I was disappointed with Rovers performance at half time. Second half we started to play good passing football and looked much better. Rankin-Costello was very good as was Mols and Charlie Doyle. I thought Magloire had a stinker and Fisher in goal, his kicking was far worse than Raya or Leutwiler. Jack Vale scored a good 2nd goal for us with a cracking shot. Butterworth was a bit greedy, losing the ball and also not shooting when he should have. For me Buckley stood out as being ready for the first team squad. Of course I hope I got the players right. I had to ask the chap next to me who was who early in the game. The programme didn't give numbers. Some I recognised and others I didn't.?

Buckley and Annesley looking the best

Poor first half from us.

Would you be looking him in the eyes or counting the fingers on his hand holding his glass?

Would the introduction of a worldwide maximum wage help?

Leutwiler played well at Norwich but reverted to poor again against Swansea. I would get rid of Leutwiler, keep Raya, get a much better keeper and, most importantly, get a better goalkeeper coach. I think TM should review all his backroom staff and be brave enough to replace the poor ones.

Excellent looking kits; that is if the blue on the player's left at the front is on the player's right at the back thus giving us the proper quartered shirt. I know everyone calls our shirts halves but two halves on the front and two halves on the back make four halves which is an impossible number to have. Four quarters please. Also, never again sky blue for me. Always a deeper shade. And another thing.......we don't want any of the 50 shades thank you.
