I was at Uni in Reading from 75-78 and when I didn't watch ther Albion used to go along to Elm Park to watch Reading. It was always worth it when Friday was playing. I think he was more or less unmanageable, though. The Reading manager at the time Charlie Hurley was just about able to...but no...

Well I can remember a couple of sunny days when I was going to be in the S Stand at Withdean and took me straw trilby hat along to save my balding head. Wore it beforehand in the Sportsman and wasn't challenged. May be its because I'm an old git and one look at me would be enough to realise I'm...

I did this at the Doncaster home game. The stewards at the entrance to the steps up asked me to take it off. I did, then when they were out of sight, put it back on again. I'm SUCH a rebel.

Born and bred in Littlehampton then Ringmer but circumstances meant after I moved away in early 30s (my eldest son is autistic and there is a great school near here for him) I am still in St Helens. My youngest son came with me to a game at Wigan where we lost 3-0 several years ago (Liddle...

3rd go 137951 ! Mind you, there are at least one or two I swear I've never heard of! Very confused when 'Lamex' came up as well! The nearer something is to the coast the easier it is; although the Wirral seems to have disappeared on that map which makes finding Prenton Park difficult. Scored a...

Talking of which; has our Norm (Baker) dared to cross t'threshold of our wonderful new home yet?

Not only Navarrro, based on yesterday, particularly in the 2nd half. I can't understand it, me. If I was at Anfield, 22 yards out, ball at my feet in front of our fans, I'd just belt the bastard as hard as I could goalwards! We seemed to be frightened to shoot sometimes.

Spot on analysis IMHO

I thought Buckley didn't look 100% and wasn't surprised when he was swapped at 1/2 time. He did tie players up but he wasn't really doing much IMHO. Even before their first goal I was saying "Christ, they're quick". We looked very sluggish by comparison. I assumed taking El Abd off was a...

I suppose me and my son come into this category as we live in St Helens. Why shouldn't we be there if we can get a ticket? Go to 8-10 games a season (away mostly obviously - last was Wrexham) and support the team whenever we can and have for over 40 years. Complete Badger? Complete twat more like.

I think he needs a rest. He is only young and has played nearly all season so far.

Possibly a SLIGHT overreaction, understandable in the circumstances, but nearer the truth than the thread starter! The defending was partly down to Brezovan's already known weakness from crosses/set pieces (see Stoke last season) and the fact that because the midfield was overrun the defence...

124 row 8

Well quite. Go into administration, 10 point deduction, still end up in Champions League. You shouldn't rewrite rules to suit individual circumstances but the outcome is a bit bloody silly in this case.

can't really see Ken letting any manager take all of the decisions though, can you!

In which case lets all hope and pray that Ken Bates still has a VERY long life ahead of him as Leeds Chairman.

Is this just not more goals scored in 2nd half as we usually kick towards the north goal in 2nd half, teams tiring, clever substitutions etc etc?

Fortunately we had the sound turned down in the (noisy) pub I was watching in in St Helens so I missed all that although I did notice that John Barnes appeared to have enjoyed himself at the pie stall. Tell you what though, that half time talk ESPN do with a table at the side of the pitch...

Sorry, but the way I read it , despite being named as a sub for 2 games and then not being picked in the squad for 2 he is now unfit......again; despite not having kicked a ball in anger since I don't know when. As far as I am concerned on the evidence to date he is either - at best - a crock or...
