  1. Who takes the free kicks? Last time i watched it was Douglas 😳
  2. Blimey - that was depressing. If he was sending out a youth team to play against them I could understand it a little but ffs - we don't have to try to compete, we have to compete. So many ifs' and "try tos' " after 4 years of building a team is just scary. A caretaker manager in his 2nd game has more positivity and higher demands from the players! That said i actually expect us to rag a win here just to remove even the remote possibility that a change would be made or even discussed in a place far far away...
  3. Was under the impression that we are a professional football club with coaches and quite expensive/well paid players. Hoping for some luck is what i do when i buy a "lucky-dip" lottery ticket 😳
  4. McVities Ginger Nuts (other brands are available but aren't as good)
  5. There are those that do it twice because the first time might just have been bad luck...
  6. One other thing: if i was Lescott i would be trying to get Branthwaite back. He is getting steadily worse and I wonder if our coaches have a hand in that...
  7. Tbf Chorley looked more organized than us in the 2 live games i watched. Just what do Rovers do all week? I'm starting to wonder if it is a devious plan to support selling the land: "well we don't train, analyse or do anything there anyway" sort of thing. A room, a donut maker and a tabletennis table is all we need.
  8. Mowbray has a football? (Coat already on)
  9. More likely that he read it on here...
  10. Dear Mods, Good luck keeping threads on-topic in the future. Sorry Love, Chimp PS. Do they still sell Topics in sweetshops/newsagents/supermarkets?
  11. Think plain buttermilk scones but served covered in gravy... Fortunately she loves fish and chips so we avoid that minefield
  12. Try living in a foreign country with an American wife... The muffin discussion is bad but we have agreed to use our host country as the standard. The BISCUIT argument may never be solved...
  13. And i seem to recall hearing quite a lot about nice, big, soft, lovely baps but i may have misunderstood...
  14. Is it just Blackburn? Grew up in Withnell/Brinscall and for me teacakes have currants in. Though Stuart is on to something as my mum says "currant teacake" but i assumed it is because she is from Bolton...
  15. I honestly believe that we will hit 5000 or lower if Mowbray is still here coupled with the fact that a lot will have "got out of the habit and economic reality. A decent CEO would drop prices to people back but this lot will raise them instead....
  16. Excellent. Not sure if it is of interest but a mate of a mate has a brilliant idea to make some extra money and save costs too. If the players don't train at all then we can sell all the land, get rid of staff, save a fortune on cones and no player will ever miss a game again because they got injured in training and reduces the risk for outbreaks of co-vid. Fecking genius if you ask me
  17. 3 year contract and jobs for my mates too?
  18. I did try to use the kettle as a frying pan - does that help?
  19. Five a side tournament - i was captain and decided who played what position. Coupled with actually buying both a kettle and a toaster that were upgrades on those i had and both things i needed - i wonder: Am i over qualified?
  20. 2 slice but thick enough for barmcakes 😍
  21. Found a lovely toaster to match the kettle att least...
  22. Fair points. I think it is difficult because this squad and TM are intertwined.
  23. If TM was new then you could make a point for having inherited an unbalanced squad with injury prone players, expensive gambles and some on expensive contracts. After 4 years TM must take some (if not all) of the blame. There is the basis of a top 6 squad, possibly top 2 but it still needs 2 or 3 solid defenders and a manager/coach that consistently gets the best out of what we have. So to answer: yes top 6 given the squad and resources available
