Providing Emerton, Savage and Dickov all make it I'd pick:

Friedel

Neill (much improved of late)

Nissa (Micky Gray what have you done?)

Nelsen (looks to be top quality)

Todd (another excellent defender)

Thommo (surely has to be better than Emerton at the moment)

Pedersen (can he ever do wrong again??)

Sav (really was missed in the second half against scum)

Tugs (has been another inconsistant season but can still have v.good days)

Stead (he really will come good but only if he is PLAYED!!)

Janny (him and Stead will score more than any others)

however probable:

Friedel

Neill

Nissa

Nelsen

Todd

Emerton (can anyone flatter to decieve anymore than him??)

Pedersen

Savage

Tugay

Dickov

Gallagher

also can we please have a decent bench against Burnley it was a joke, at home in the cup when it is obvious we will need to break 10 men down and Dickov is also playin when he shouldn't really due to his groin and we have:

Enckleman (fair enough)

Short (again can't argue)

Reid (can run all day but little ability, how about someone who can do something different like thommo!!)

Flitcroft (surely 1 mid is enough when Dickov could have got injured at any point)

Bothroyd (not play for ages since last injury and he is useless anyway, where are steady and janny???)

Dingle on radio Lancs:

'' tickets were on sale to Burnley fans for the cis stand(Riverside) at Deepdale on Saturday''

Worryingly i've heard off one of the interbreds that that is the case!

Don't worry LATD. It's a good old fashioned snowballing football myth. Every Burnley fan at Deepdale probably heard this and now takes it as gospel.

Still we'll never know for sure cos they aint gonna score.

Quick change that to "we'll PROBABLY never know because they MIGHT not score" dont jinx it please!

So your sister told you ??

Valencia's the only other one really as its the closest to where i live in spain.

Always like the local sides to do well (with obvious exceptions) and old players who are now managers Hendry, Newell etc... but wouldn't say I have any other favourites.

Bergkamp has to be up there for his constant nasty kicks, flicks, elbows, stamps etc.. that he gets away with like no other, i'm glad he got a 3 match ban for not doing much still doesn't make up for years of getting away with it.

Surely this is the only club in the country that could have this poll without Dickov or Savage getting a mention by the majority hehe

modes, we can now change the home kit every season. This was discussed several times lasy year.

O great thats going to mean even more money to teh club shop

Not really, work on buying the home shirt each time it is out:

Old structure:

1st season = 1 shirt £40

2nd season = same shirt £0

3rd season = new shirt £40

total = £80 for 2 shirts!!

This way

1st season = 1 shirt £25

2nd season = new shirt £25

3rd season = newer shirt £25

total = £75 for 3 shirts!!

This works out even better when you consider the way most modern day shirts are looking tatty by christmas of the first year of purchase and we're on a winner me thinks

There are a few facts here:

Jansen is not as good as he was

Jansen will not be as good as he was

however

Jansen will still score more goals than any of our other strikers, I think that he is suffering a bit from everyone's memories of him, if he came in as a new striker I think we would be saying that he's an improvement on what we have and would make a good addition however because previously he was one of the best english strikers around he just constantly gets compared to this and he will sadly never reach that again, but he still has plenty to offer, and goals are certainly still in him!

As I've said before this whole thing surrounding Ferguson and Bellamy stinks of Soeuy influence to me, he signs Boumsong from his good friend, he then asks his buddy Murray to do him a favour seen as though he's just paid over the odds for Boumsong, Murray agrees and unsettles Ferguson, he then says Rangers can't afford him, Souness wants to get rid of Bellamy and so he knows this will attract Hughes, however he also knows Hughes cant afford him so may have to sell Fergy, the outcome:

Souness gets Boumsong,

He also gets Ferguson for less than he would have probably done if he had just waded in with a bid before Rangers,

and Souness also gets rid of a player he doesn't want.

Rangers get a good price for Boumsong.

He's got 30 months left on his contract contrary to what some people (i.e. murray) thinks, so leave him to rot in the reserves, train with the kids unless Rangers meet our price for him.

I still have a sneaky feeling that Rangers wont come up with the funds but very late on in the transfer window a certain Mr. Souness does, one or two things have made me a bit suspicious and I would not be surprised at all.

Am I the only one rather put out by the comments from Rangers??

Rovers were being accused of being bang out of order by a bunch of hypocrits from birmingham when publicly we did nothing wrong.

Then Rangers decide that its ok to publicly state that another clubs player would love to go to them etc.... BANG OUT OF ORDER!!

Nice to see a return to the squad for Janny, he seemed to be promising some good scoring form before his injury. Will be an interesting team, here's the squad:

Keepers

Friedel

Enckleman

Defenders

Todd

Johansson

Amoruso

Nelsen

McEveley

Gray

Midfielders

Emerton

Pedersen

Thompson

Mokeona

Flitcroft

Tugay

Douglas

Strikers

Dickov

Stead

Gallagher

Jansen

Johnson

I'll go for:

Friedel

Right Back (no idea can Nelsen play there??)

McEveley

Todd

Johansson

Thompson

Emerton

Flitcroft

Tugay

Dickov

Stead

Subs:

Enckleman

Mokeona

Pedersen

Jansen

Gallagher

Portsmouth 1-1 Rovers

Yakubu Emerton

Conspiracy theory anyone, Souness good friends with Murray, always in contact with each other, Souness struggling to agree terms with Murray over Boumsong, just happens to comment that Fergy may not be as happy as he would have everyone believe at Ewood and in Souness' opinion would love a return to Ibrox.

Murray suddenly thinks, ah ha Boumsong keen on moving, money to buy Fergy, and he wants to come back, that'll appease any fans upset at Boumsong leaving!

while some people are calling Fergy outstanding and others average, the overal opinion is:

He's not a hard tackler

he's not a goal scorer

he does not create many chances

he's not a great passer

he cant't take free kicks well

but

he is neat and tidy

he is a good leader

he can infleuence games

I have to agree with Chris on this one, there is no doubt Fergy is a good player however as Chris states he is not excellent at anything really just decent at most things, surely we'd be better with two players excellent at their own jobs, i.e. Faye or Savage (defensively) and a good attacking midfielder.

These are rip off prices.

Notice their accordingly priced Student prices though!!

Do the club really expect supporters to stump up this kind of cash for a cup replay that will most likely be on the box and in any case comes after a lot of games in a short space of time! Absolute disgrace!

On a side issue there is a discount for adults but none for students, just because I've gone to university does it no longer matter that I've had a season ticket for the past 15 seasons?!?
