    England vs Bangladesh

    It all seems so irrelevant. Even if we get through, we are going out at the first knockout stage.

    Remind me again why Brighton let Elphick and Cook go ...

    The only chance that either of them have of playing in the PL, is with Bournemouth. Neither are good enough to attract the interest of a PL side.

    Remind me again why Brighton let Elphick and Cook go ...

    So Cook is a great player, is he.....presumably ranking alongside other greats of the game..e.g Bobby Moore. FFS, why come out with stupid comments like this. HE'S NOT A GREAT PLAYER. He's a decent player at Championship level ( which isn't very good quality ) but no better than that. The same...

    Poyet and Bridcutt

    When he was at Chelsea, they offered him another year but with no guarantee of regular first team football. They told him that they thought he could carve out a good career below the PL but they didn't think that he would be able to hold down a place at the highest level. He wasn't able to...

    Rip dave mackay ?

    That Spurs team were very special. A rich mixture of talent that combined to produce the best team around for 2-3 years. Brown and Norman were solid at the back. The midfield was to die for. Blanchflower, White and Mackay. Wow...it doesn't get much better than that. A dynamic winger in Cliff...

    Rip dave mackay ?

    As I understand it, he played under Clough and Taylor and won the title and then, when they departed, he managed them to the title as well. ( as Daglish did at Liverpool )

    Driver refuses to move van for ambulance trying to reach fitting baby

    Lets just hope that in a few years time, when this particular individual is lying in agony in an ambulance, there is another muppet out there who refuses to move. Never mind about two wrongs not making a right. In this instance, they do.

    Rip dave mackay ?

    Very sad news. One of the big men of football. He was like a lion. One of the first players to make use of the ' long throw Bill Nicholson brought him to Spurs to team up with Blanchflower and White and win the double. In later years, Cloughie persuaded him to go to Derby, control the back four...

    How to turn the non-legends wall into a legends wall in one easy step.

    Easy. Remove..... Butters, Oatway, Carpenter, Rogers, and Knight. Add............Cook, Attwood, Lane, Thorne and Mullery. Then its getting more like a legends wall.

    what 3 teams will go down

    I wish I shared your confidence. Four games v Derby last season persuade me that they have our measure.

    Hearts v Cowdenbeath

    Circa 1960...Tottenham 13 Crewe 2 ( FAC 4th round replay ). When Crewe left home, their train departed from platform two and on the return journey, they left Euston on platform thirteen!

    what 3 teams will go down

    We need that as we will be coming second to Derby.

    Bolton player ratings

    Yes, they should do but four successive blanks away from home suggests that blame can be apportioned in both directions. The manager is clearly setting up for 0-0 away and hoping to nick a goal. We are not the sort of side to ' nick ' goals. We aren't clever enough. We need a host of chances to...

    I'm Team CMS - and proud of it.

    They should know. They watch a darn sight more football than a lot of the posters on here. Most of them are away season ticket holders and go to the vast majority of Leeds games. CMS is one of those players ( like Barnes ) who clearly divide opinion amongst our fans. Leeds fans are not the only...

    Quality of refereeing

    I know that seems shoite to some but football hasn't always been played the way we see it today. Who knows what they may end up doing? If anything! I just know that something needs to be done before the next, or the next generation of players accept the cheating way as the norm. I still have...

    98 . . . . 99 . . . . 100!!

    But as she said to me "you've got to live while we're young". Very true......except I fitted all my early living around the Goldstone. Football first......Stones, Who, Animals, Troggs....Drink...Women....School....etc etc....very much second.

    The gap between the Premier League and the Championship is now "an abyss"

    Well...the PL was set up to protect the interests of its members ( particularly the big fish ) and its sure as hell doing that. I think we all knew that 12-13 was our big chance and we blew it. We now have a squad that is going to get 25-30 less points than that season....ouch!
