Who played the ball for his second goal?

I think fairly clearly the flights available now for next Summer are going to be expensive to get right now as everyone is scrambling to rebook. There must be a good chance that other airlines will look to expand into the market gap left by Thomas Cook so ther3 may well be better priced options later on if you’re brave. I guess what might make a difference is when and where you’re going. A popular flight route in high season will be harder than somewhere less popular in May.

That's true Den, but the Government have confirmed that anyone currently away with a flight only deal will be brought back for free for the next two weeks at least. Of course, it's a different matter for you and your bookings for next year. God knows whether it makes sense to be looking to rebook flights with another airline now or leave it a bit to see who picks up some of the slack.

Not if you’re driving.

Yes and soon.

I think that's only a bargain in comparison to the £33 adult price. For Rovers' next game at home you can get an adult ticket for less - £22 (or £19 with an 1875 membership). I have just come out of the 60-65 age group. There are a few clubs that allow senior tickets from 60, notably in London. But the majority in the Championship don't.

Close crimpshrine. The numbers are about 1,000 down - 1,700 non renewals offset by 700 new ST holders. As far as I'm aware every one of the 1,700 have already been contacted.

I couldn't abide Botham as a commentator. Thankfully as he was on Sky I rarely came across him. I have Sky but for cricket I have to listen to TMS and I only use the TV for pictures. There are a host of female cricket commentators already. Alison Mitchell has been around for years and Isa Guha and Emily Rainsford-Brent have been on for a couple of years now. But I found the Australian Mel Jones to be the best during the World Cup.

Norwich had 5 points from their first 6 games last season.

I remember back in the season before we won the league (or maybe the League winning season, I forget), I “acquired” some tickets for the away game at Old Trafford through a Bury fan at work who got them straight from Neville Neville. They turned out to be with the United players’ wives and an injured Dion Dublin in one corner. We were robbed that day with a Paul Ince equaliser in Fergie time from a corner that never should have been. So I do have a soft spot for Bury.

As an ex HR Manager it seems to me perfectly sensible and good practice to both look to develop your own talent through succession planning and to test the quality of that talent against the external marketplace from time to time. That will obviously take a bit longer than just appointing internally but do you want to do a job well or just quickly? Like most others on here I have no idea about the relative merits of the individuals concerned but recent recruitment seems to have gone well so I’m prepared to trust the interviewers to make a good appointment.

Tomorrow afternoon Den..,,,,

I've been debating all week whether to go tonight or not. I don't have a ticket but I was pretty confident I would be able to get one on the night. I think the weather forecast has made my mind up to stay and watch at home. Right now the Met Office has it as a 60-70% chance of thunderstorms between 5 and 9pm. One big thunderstorm on the ground could be enough for it to be a wash-out.

I was born in hospital in Southport which was then very much traditional Lancashire as is Liverpool, the majority of Greater Manchester and the Furness peninsula including Barrow. It doesn't matter what the people of Liverpool, Manchester and Southport thought about it, up to 1974 they lived in Lancashire. Anyway, whatever boundary you give Lancashire the answer to your original question is still clearly Tom Finney. He could play anywhere and to boot was a wonderful human being. After retirement he would happily come to the opening of a crisp packet if it was in a good cause.

I presume it was Greg Coar, Joe. If Rob Coar (no relation) was there I doubt he would know more than Steve.

There's nothing wrong in raising a point that on this occasion a number of people had to miss the meeting. As it happens everyone had to my mind a good reason why they couldn't make it. You just seem to have used the point to suggest that two members should be replaced. Why two?

Why would I not refer to it by it's name though? The financial rules are known as Financial Fair Play - it seems to me much clearer for anyone reading the minutes. I should call them something else because you have some irrational point to make?

So you want me to write abusive slang in a publicly available set of meeting minutes Vinjay?

Vinjay - of the 8 who were unable to attend the last Fans Forum meeting, two were unable to attend due to illness, two were at a funeral, two had last minute work commitments, one had a family commitment and one was on holiday. All 8 have a good attendance record at the Forum. Which two of those do you think we should replace?

I hope you got it for Christmas Deryck?

Clearly a turning wicket Matt. They were 77-0 with Onions and Gleeson bowling. Maxwell and Parkinson came on and cleaned them up for 50. Jennings and Davies have got Lancs to 48-0, although Sussex have only just brought a spinner on.

Irrespective of how good a manager Bruce is or isn't I have plenty of disdain for him. This is the man who has walked out of contracts with clubs twice (maybe three times?) and then had the gall to complain that Rovers fans have no loyalty when we were campaigning for Kean to go.

Now you should know Roverite that a calm and reasoned post is not what this thread is about.

Well it's not gone well for me. I knew I would miss quite a number but the count is already 8 home games missed, with no doubt others missed later.

It relates to Vinjay's unhealthy obsession with the Walker Trust K-Hod. What has the size of the company got to do with quality Vinjay? I would choose a smaller company for excellent food.
