Always seems a shame when anyone just falls short of a milestone like that. He had a good innings though. RIP Phil the Greek. Well written obituary on the BBC - wonder how long they have had this prepared!? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-10224525

To be fair Matty I'm not sure Dyche was that highly thought of (or paid) when they first hired him. Certainly once he took them on their journey he has become well recompensed I should imagine. I think Klopp is a another prime example of a club pushing the boat out for a top manager and reaping the benefits (though I guess even he isn't earning as much as some of their players?).

Special AKA - Free Nelson mandela

Some good stuff been posted already today! The Hollies - He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother

Sensational last 11 holes from Justin Rose. And yet I somehow still can't see him winning it. I hope I'm wrong as he should have at least a couple more majors in his back pocket than he actually has. Speith recovered well from his triple bogey, especially given his history on this course.

Ricky Nelson - Travellin’ Man

This. Scousers can’t keep their gobs shut at the best of times, never mind the worst of times.

This is bang on. They were the noises of an increasingly desperate man. Absolutely no way has he spoken to Venkys about games either that frequently or in that much detail. What a con man. He's almost certainly wondering why and how he is still the manager of Blackburn Rovers.

Andy Lewis - Tell me Once Again You Love Me

I don't know any more than I have already posted to be honest. I will be very surprised if he is in charge on Saturday but I probably shouldn't be.

Three early wickets for Lancs on the first morning of the County Championship season. Good start after Sussex opted to bat first.

The Beatles - Two Of Us

Ha ha yeah. We were all well past our primes by this stage but there are a couple of ex pros in that pic (not famous ones by any stretch) and the following year we had Barry Lavety instead of ‘Micky Quinn’. The giant next to me in the photo is no longer with us sadly. My advice to anyone is to keep playing for as long as you possibly can. Regardless of the standard.

Paul Weller - The Strange Museum. oh fuck it, what am I doing? The Jam - Strange Town

C’mon now we have all played for them (far right, back row - about ten minutes before I had a heart attack 😂)

There are numerous examples of fabulous football coaches that debunk this, in fairness. Mourinho, Wenger, etc etc

Of all the problems we have at Rovers just now I’m not convinced Ben Benson is actually one of them. Having a dodgy keeper is not why we are in the predicament we are in.

The Beatles - I’m So Tired

Robert Howard and Kym Mazelle - Wait

No, he had already been told that they were going in the summer (sometime around the Norwich game).

All he said yesterday was "its all gone very quiet which in itself is unusual". He also initially thought that both Waggott and Mowbray were going in the summer but that they are now bringing that forward. I've known this guy for over 40 years and he's not normally one to spread gossip or make things up, so I definitely think that something is happening, but always at Venky pace!!!!

D:Ream - Things Can Only Get Better

This modern/recent trend of prefixing 'emotion' words with 'super' (e.g. "I was super-excited to hear that Tony Mowbray had been sacked"). Just fucking stop it!!
