    Next Seasons Confirmed Squad/Transfer Rumours

    … not to mention that it didn't cost us promotion as we were promoted last season and this alleged interest was the beginning of last season

    Things that annoy you

    That is not a skill unique to your wife. Mine does the same but that is just a minor annoyance compared to her starting to talk to me when she is not in the same room as me, sometimes not even on the same floor. I have finally decided to just never answer her which can in turn make her think...

    Don Mackay

    He had just come back from injury and was very good for us while on loan & we wanted to loan him for another month but Wolves bought him instead. I think he had another injury at Wolves but really impressed when he subsequently joined Southampton. Robertson on the other hand was highly rated at...

    Don Mackay

    Phil Neal. He fucked about whether to sign Chris Marsden so plumped for Robertson instead. Cyrille Regis was so disillusioned playing for Mackay that he wanted to leave until Sillett came along and the rest is history

    Interesting Reading

    Swansea's old ground is now a council owned communal allotment so I'm guessing they didn't sell it so would have made no money from that. Didn't the sale of HR pay off some of the debt to the likes of McGinnity & Robinson?

    The Mackem Dictionary

    I think mackem refers to them making things and is just the Geordies saying that they make them. I am sure there is a phrase in Geordie which is "you mackem and we'll tackem"

    What Sporting Event Would You Choose ?

    As well as for the sporting aspect I like events where the atmosphere consumes the place it is at. I have been to the Dutch TT (now MotoGP) at Assen a couple of times where 250,000 people converge on a town with a population of 70,000 and the town has a big street party the night before. I am...

    McLeish gone

    Can't see it, he was so unpopular last time I know a few Scots were happy to lose so they would get rid of him

    So it begins....

    I have a Sunderland supporting friend who came to White Hart Lane with me in 1997 when we relegated them and Middlesboro and he has no animosity towards us at all. In 1995-1998 I worked in Southend with a Sunderland season ticket holder and I went to watch Sunderland play at Southend with him &...

    The Fumigator

    It's not just what fans pay at the Ricoh, to park in A, B & C or in the casino. It's the money fans from CCFC and the away teams spend in pubs and other local businesses. CCC seem to have never seen the financial benefit to the local economy from CCFC.

    If we move

    I will still attend the odd game, the move will have no effect on me just like the Sixfields one didn't. I just want to see my team play wherever that is

    VAR tonight

    There was a goal scored by St Etienne last night that was originally given offside by the linesman but correctly overruled by VAR. The decision took ages as the Nimes players were arguing that they stopped playing but there is no way the goalkeeper or any defender saw the flag or could have got...

    Scotland 0 Borat 3

    I did but the nationalists don't want to be part of the UK, they still go around wearing their 45 badges to symbolise the 45% that voted yes ffs!!

    Scotland 0 Borat 3

    I live up here and it is fair to say quite a few of them don't like us and it has if anything got worse since the independence referendum. I have seen Scots wearing England's opponents kits during tournaments which I do find strange. I don't want Scotland to win at anything so it doesn't bother...
