  1. 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?
  2. I was hoping for contribution from people who know the under 23s better than me. e.g.Parson Blue, Stuart, Hollowsr etc.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Won more league championships (6) than us (3) That's how it seems to work.
  6. Don't go to sleep on your sofa.?
  7. By the way, who are Clapton Rovers? Do they play in the Burnley and district Sunday league?
  8. 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.
  9. We're into May now. April 1st was a while ago.
  10. 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.?
  11. Would you be looking him in the eyes or counting the fingers on his hand holding his glass?
  12. Would the introduction of a worldwide maximum wage help?
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. All players should play to the whistle. I've screamed this at Rovers players when there has been an opponent down and they slow down and look to play the ball into touch.
  16. He has been ill according to the media. Glad that he played tonight even if he was below par.
  17. Very proud of the lads tonight. After the first 20 minutes, where we looked like we were going to get a 7-1 revenge battering, we came into the game and never looked back. Norwich showed what an excellent team they are but we gave as good as we got and had them worried at times. We looked better when BB and Conway came on and Rothwell moved into midfield. I was hoping for an equaliser in the last 5 minutes but it wasn't to be. Leutwiler played very well.
  18. Yep. Leeds can only make 88. Norwich now have 88
  19. We've won the last 4 and Norwich have drawn their last 4. On paper, therefore, they are due a win and we are due a loss. They expect to clinch the championship with this game. It all points towards a Norwich rout. But football is a funny old game. Right. Brereton makes an early goal for Dack. Later Dack assists Big Ben to put Rovers 2 up. Norwich pull 1 back before half time. On about 55 minutes Norwich equalise. But later. somehow, we score a 3rd and then, incredulously we get a 4th. On 88 minutes they get their 3rd and, with 6 minutes of added time, I bite my fingernails and fingers down to the knuckles as they pile the pressure on. Eventually the final whistle blows and I fall exhausted to the floor. We'll win 4-3
  20. Stanley winning 2-0 after 55 minutes. Come on you reds!
  21. The subs were warming up at half time and I said to my mates. "There's Harry Chapman". It was his doppelgänger, Butterworth. Also for Tom's information, Bennett was with the warming up lads, too.
  22. I'm sure Reg Elvy played wearing a flat cap and sometimes a pair of glasses. That night in Bolton when Faz scored our winning goal, there were over 33,000 on for a 3rd Division match. No segregation then. I returned to Hoghton to enjoy some pints of brilliant Boddingtons in The Old Oak. What a great night!
