Looks like Roberts won't be coming here

We should be all over that but I can see wages being a major problem. I doubt he's on peanuts & someone will offer him more than us given the fact there's no transfer fee.

Tell me about it! Looking at the chest sizes, I'm going to need 3XL but with the height guide it'll probably be down to my knees! I can always get a belt & wear it as a dress I suppose 😂

Cheers. I thought I'd heard something along those lines a while ago. Think it was back in the Rory Delap days at Stoke.

Surely there must be something whereby the use of a towel has to have the agreement of both teams & be available for the use of both teams? @arbitro Tony, can you shed any light on this mate? Also, the thing that pissed me off the most, was the amount of time they are being allowed to dry the ball. I thought he was trying to rub the pattern off it at one point! Refs really need to clamp down on that aspect of it.

Anyone know much about this lad? I see that he's a centre half & has quite a few appearances in the Dutch League, but that's about as much as I know.

I'll tell you what, if you zoom in on the front page of that document, he made a right good job of injuring that knee!

Dear God! Who dreams these up? So based on the above, Jordan Henderson, Curtis Jones & Thiago all increase a team's chance of scoring a goal more than Jack Grealish? 🤯 Someone should let Pep know, he could've bought all 3 of them and still had change from £100m! 😂

😂Cheers pal, that'll explain it then!. I'd just assumed it was taken from the BBE on Saturday after he scored, a bit blurry but, shitty stand on the left, 3 decent looking sides, floodlight column in the left hand corner. But yeah, now I look more closely, the seats do look a bit red and the red around the pitch should've been a giveaway, plus the fact the dugouts have disappeared! Suitably embarrassed now! 😳

Yeah, I'm hoping he puts a decent strength team out tonight as I think Arsenal will really struggle against the physicality that we witnessed at the weekend & it's always funny watching Arsenal get bullied! They certainly didn't like it when Hughes was in charge with our very own 'Bully Boys' as Wenger put it.

Is it just me, or does something not look quite right with that still - it looks like someone has moved the big screen to the corner between the DE and JW. I know I'd had a few scoops on Friday night but I'm pretty sure it was still in its usual place on Saturday & I can't think what else it could be. 🤔

Think Chris Hughton might be in trouble very soon. I know it was Prem opposition, but they've been stuffed 4-0 at home tonight by Wolves.

As I said, I generally don't get time to get dinner (lunch for you posh folk) before arriving at the ground & believe me, you don't want me sitting there getting hangry! 😄 I shall, however, be sourcing an alternative in the future.

😅 The prices are ludicrous this season. I usually end up running around like a madman on Saturday lunchtime so rarely have chance to grab something to eat before going down to Ewood. Wasn't usually too much of an issue, I'd just grab a pie at the ground. I know it was always a bit dearer than anywhere outside, but hey, it's only once a fortnight, I'll cope. Did the same on Saturday, 2 bottles of soft drink & a pie - £9.20!! Jesus christ! Seriously, the same order with a hotdog thrown in as well was £10.20 a couple of seasons back. I'll not be doing that again any time soon. I'll just bring a butty from home or something, same with the drinks. If I've got a bit more time I'll treat myself to a burger from the van behind the club shop.

A lad I know is a video scout for Villa (previously at that lot!) & literally spends all day watching these videos. On the back of this he recommends who the scouts should go & watch. As you said, it's not like watching a video a fan has put together on YouTube.

Think we've possibly missed a good un there.

What's going on with the big screen? It seems to be just an advertising board now. We used to get goal replays & other close chances plus both teams up for a majority of the game. Never realised how much I used it for things like "who's their no. 6?" or "hasn't he already been booked?" With not having a physical programme anymore for player references I think this is something which definitely needs to return.

I wouldn't mind that lad Liam Delap from City if we're only looking at young loanees. Phenomenal record in PL2 and very highly rated. Was talking to a city fan in the pub on Friday & he said he's actually a big lad, not your typical teenager. Plus, If we can get his dad to show him how to take a thrown in....😄

CBA with Chaddy's multiquote system, but yeah, that was brilliant I'll admit but even funnier was magloire launching it into the BBE at HT. I will qualify this by saying not half as funny as us scoring on the counter attack after that prick has spent 10 minutes trying to rub the pattern off the ball!!

I'll be honest Tom, I'm in NO4 and not once did I hear a chant with nobhead's name mentioned

FFS! Down at the pub with the WBA - Sheff Utd on. I nipped out for a cig & heard the commentary at HT saying Ayala had just scored & missed them showing the goal!! Now, do I pack in smoking or nip out for another hoping lightning strikes twice! 😅

James Newell Osterberg, Jr. apparently

I don't know how many on here watched Nobbers game last night, but after watching Sheff Utd-Swansea on Saturday I didn't think a game of football could get any more boring (yes even under Mogga) but Hudds & Nobbers proved me wrong. It must've been the worst game of football I've ever watched, & believe me I've seen some crap! If that's the best they can offer, they're in for a very long old season. Can't see Hemmings putting up with McAvoy for long.

Well, Tony did say that John Park was a workaholic! 😅

Is that the lad who's a Rovers fan, I see he was born in Blackburn?
