Those were the days, seems so long ago, but what a time to be a Rover.

Prove it false then.

🤣🤣 Now I will refrain.

Actually for football it's the yo yo intermittent test, developed by Bangsbo.

Yeah that was after, wasn't it. If you're right leg is fucked, you can still train the left and your upper body. Christ you can even structure a strength training session to evoke a cardiovascular improvement. It ain't rocket science. Maintaining fitness and muscle mass is easy with the right nutrition. I will refrain from any further comments as clearly it upsets people.

So you can critique football on here but not their fitness. I ain't no guru but I train often and I'm in much better shape than most of our 1st team at 49. I'll leave it there.

Not really, professional football is not professional in it's approach to fitness/nutrition given the finances involved.

Football players ain't fit mate, not even close compared to other sports. I remember Dacks come back, I remember screaming it was clearly to much as I didn't think he looked fit, more enthusiasm than anything else and was calling for him to do less pitch time. No he isn't a natural athlete, but very very few people are. You don't get a athletes body by not working it, even those genetically disposed that way MUST train hard. Stiffness and soreness sums football up, recovery is the main fitness focus and that means they are not fit enough for their sport and football is not physically demanding in the grand scheme of things. 90 mins main activity is walking with intermittent bursts of high intensity activity, Christ a tennis match is more physically demanding and that's scientific fact.

I'm sure we played Barcelona pre season 1 year, that was marquee

All the links kinda make me think him or his agent are putting his name out there.

ACLs today are not as severe as they were when say Shearer had his. The reconstruction process is much better and alongside strong nutrition amazing things can be done. However Dack came back both times over weight and this would imply his nutrition was, well, shit. You are made from food, quality food means better and stronger repair. Sit on your ass, eat shit and don't work the rest of your body and we'll it goes down hill. Dack is lazy, it's obvious and whilst yes ACLs are serious, a professional approach makes a mammoth difference to an individuals recovery.

Matching tattoos apparently and all for their TV show. I kinda feel like that aspect of dacks life got in the way of his football career

I'm Scottish, I like the other side in the city so I meant ante pottygol. Big leap to spuds, no 2 horse race here so I am happy to see him join them. Mid table beckons, Kane will leave and it's a big rebuild against stronger teams and managers.

So looks like ante pottygol from Celtic is the new spuds manager, hopefully he signs Raya 👍

I also didn't know about hendry, I knew about Dr who and have heard of bill Beaumont but god onow who the others are lol.

I like JDT, he did alright this season but I'm not sure I would take a punt on him at a bigger club yet. I find the links etc premature as we started well, and then dropped off dramatically at the end of the season. I'm surprised Leeds etc are interested and would have thought a manager who had a promotion or more experience would be their priority.

our 5 most famous fans

The one that truly annoys me is the we inflated prices and bought the league. 7m Fergus spunked in vain effort to beat us, hell his team even cost more than ours to assemble. Fergie etc moan cause another club came along and more than matched them, both on the pitch and with transfers. Glorious days 👍🎉

That's a long conversation given their time in tenure. Ronaldinho is coming 👍🤣🤣

Are people just establishing that we are run and owned by lying twonks? Who'd have guessed it 😲

YouTube counts doesn't it lol

Mmm what's plastic and buzzes???

CH4 Pob. Steamed windows have never been the same since lol

Aye, ya should, and say hi to bagpuss 🤣🤣🤣

I'm not really 155 years old, although it feels that way somedays lol. I typed in the 1st rovers starting 11 to win the FA cup from wiki.
