I did my ACL at the age of 16 and was never the same player again. I'm now mid 50s and my knee has started really playing up again. I went to the docs and told him my knee was really sore. He said "Its just age Andy" to which I replied "What a load of old bollocks doc, the other knee is the same age and there's bugger-all wrong with that one!"
Lancs will probably still get relegated but you can't say they aren't going down fighting. To win the last game was incredible, to force a tie in this one arguably even more so!!
Ah the Cost of Living EP. One of The Clash's finest releases mate. I remember buying it from that record shop in Duckworth Street, must have been around the same time as Strange Town by The Jam.
Anyway, back to the game:
Los Bravos - Black is Black
Most managers have a limited period of effectiveness at a club. I can only think of a handful in the near 50 years I've been watching the game who bucked that trend, and Sean Dyche is not fit to be mentioned in the same breath as those 'greats'. So it isn't really a matter of him having 'lost it' its more a case of he has taken it as far as he can.
I look forward to us competing against each other again next season Longers.
This may be controversial but I hope he stays - he’s had his time now for all the reasons put forward by other posters and the only way they can survive is to change!
One of our ex players - a mate of mine - was on his way to sign for them (not directly from us I hasten to add) when he was reminded rather forcibly by us - his pals - that they are the enemy. He signed for Bury instead.
