And Griezmann...

Could do a job back in Scotland...

I’m not saying anything about top 6, I’m saying 60 points obviously wasn’t a pre season target or we’d have heard about it before April.

We hadn’t heard this 60 point target all year until the back end of that horrendous run. So I thought it was fairly obvious that he set the target then to try and encourage a strong end to the season?

Dack to Man Utd? Kinell silly season has begun in earnest on here!

Nothing more needs to be added from me about the great man. However, looking through those photos upsets me as much as anything. What a great club they purchased and what an act of disgusting arrogance to just throw it all away.

It looks more like Pat Jennings who unveiled it than Best.

Plus Hoilett who was on fire that season. 'They were badly advised', should be the title of any club history of this decade.

No surprise, potentially libellous that.

The Sakal Times were tagged in the photo. I just checked their website, nothing published as yet...

Cracking player, saved Kean's arse in that first season.

The longer we stay out of the top flight the more and more small time we’ll become. I mean, look at PNE.

Interviews on the official site are always platitude ridden hot air. I stopped putting any stock into them years ago. All about their body language and effort levels on the pitch over ‘the lads are wanting to put things right’, ‘we’ve a tight knit group’ , ‘[enter current manager here] is the best I’ve ever played under. Etc etc etc.

I’m partial to a cardigan

You’d imagine Wolves would’ve have put up more of a fight...

WATP, No Surrender etc

Aye, had a great craic at 1860 Munich in the Hughes days.

Didn’t Mowbray say in his first summer that just playing lower league sides was not the his preferred way to do pre-season? Ergo last summer we played Liverpool and Everton.

‘Premier League giants Bournemouth’

‘Rovers are where they are now because of Jack overspending’ was another tweet. We had a small, manageable debt and were a comfortable PL outfit when his half wit family sold us for a pittance. Total ignorance of our situation. The Twitter-fame has gone to his head.

Bryan Robson at Boro. Pretty much died as a thing post 90s.

On what would be Jack’s 90th birthday, Holt decrees him not a ‘fit and proper owner’ ’Plucky little Stanley’ ‘love to see them do well’ indeed. About time a few Rovers fans woke up with regards to that club.

Stanley have real ale marquees, live bands, £1 a pint after a win, an ‘ultras section’ where the club work with the fans on flags, banners etc. Free shirts and tickets for every kid in Hyndburn. Not bad for a club struggling to attract 4 figure crowds two years ago. Good job Holt didn’t just think ‘bugger it, we are a small club, nowt we can do’

A lot of this goes back to when the club decided to de-affiliate from supporters clubs 20 years back of whenever it was. Most withered on the vine, losing that connection to the club in the region. Most decently sized clubs have a network of affiliated branches, London Branch aside, we have nowt.
