    [Politics] Brexit

    Well you'd better stop bringing my name up when I haven't posted on here for months, if you want to get clever you might get a response, why don't you do us all a favour and stick to the restaurant thread and post pictures of a burger and some pickles ..............

    [Politics] Brexit

    No you're telling porkies, your 'Britain on the Brink' post was in 2018 in response to an outdated link from one of your nerdy friends, you were all over it like a rash, unfortunately you got all deflated as it was an out of date link from 2016 on something that still hasn't happened, even as...

    You weren't commenting on any future scenario it wasn't a forecast, you have just scrolled back over your timeline found some of your previous posts and somehow think they suddenly become valid as they fit in your mind what is happening today, you really are a numpty.

    Ferring FC in the County League

    I seem to recall he went to Southwick, Steyning no doubt a few others and was probably always in some conflict with the FA, he rocked up to Worthing perhaps 91/92'sh got Butch Reeves and Eric Whittington as managers and got a few names players in but was gone before the end of the season ..........

    Ferring FC in the County League

    A good friend of mine played for him whilst he was at Worthing, a nice fella by all accounts but one of those that is never likely to last. My mate got paid good money back in the late 80's very early 90's yet still he was allowed to go along to his butchers shop and was given a weekly free...

    Ferring FC in the County League

    Firstly when I started with 'sorry, which one' it was meant as a genuine courteous start to my post. Anyway I think my point still stands that when low level clubs continue to pay money above expenses to their players it weakens their hand should they then feel aggrieved to have to maintain or...

    Ferring FC in the County League

    Sorry, which bit ? It seems it has already been confirmed some clubs are paying money beyond their players reasonable expenses, why encourage those clubs to squirt their resources to transient amateur players without much chance of sustained success whilst ignoring to improving their own...

    Ferring FC in the County League

    I agree to a point, but unfortunately local clubs do not help themselves by at times paying ludicrous amount of money to amateur players that are no better than average, the FA knows this and rightly in my opinion try to divert those funds to a more long lasting legacy of decent facilities. I...

    no sorry what I was trying to say is that even with the £1000.00 cash that equates to roughly £30.00 a week throughout an eight month season, if I take your first memory of £50.00 win and £20.00 a draw and if the owner honours his bonuses then it perhaps goes from £30.00 for a loss, £50.00 for a...

    Yes that sounds about right, I still bump into them at times, Darren is really back on track, loved the school a little barmy at times though.

    It did happen but not as widespread as is so often said and details are prone to exaggeration even by close friends and although your mate did well to demand a signing on fee of £1000.00 the figures only really pay him on average weekly £20.00-£70.00 depending on the result so he is hardly up to...

    In the 80's there were very few picking up the riches that are now rumoured, especially in the County league prime example is the powerful and successful Peacehaven side, never really paid much, a little later early 90's Newhaven started to throw a few quid around, Tony Towner, Andy Rollings...

    Aren't Darren's brothers, Sean and Paul older than him, Paul had a very serious car accident when he was 15/16'sh and perhaps if not for this might have gone onto becoming a better sportsman than them both and although Sean might have done some boxing and up until recently was involved in his...

    [Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2024-25 Season]

    At a sports quiz some years ago a question was correctly answered that West Broms ground is the highest (above sea level) ground in the English football league and I feel compelled to tell people this whenever West Brom is mentioned, perhaps this time there is some relevance to saying it ......

    In the minds eye you still see them in their pomp, you forget they get older and can get less healthy. Him and Andy Ritchie were good mates (both seemed less inclined to be seen out and about with others within the squad at the time), didnt stop them having a fight with each other in the tunnel...
