    Anyone a bit concerned about the 2nd one day cricket international?

    Like they say, catches win matches.

    Tony Mowbray closing in on making first signings

    We need politicians too. Who else is going to fight on our behalf to bring in laws none of us wants?

    Anyone a bit concerned about the 2nd one day cricket international?

    Everyone seems to be very euphoric at the moment, following the great win the other day, but are we getting a little bit carried away? Heard them saying on the radio this morning talking about whether England could get 400 again and others talking about an upturn in England's fortunes and a new...

    the club must remember

    Well, the playing rubbish has to be in the past tense. It just has to be. It's so much more than just individual ability on paper, it's about team spirit and belief too. Kenny Dalglish said on 5 Live a couple of weeks back that Blackburn's title winning season was as much down to the dressing...

    the club must remember

    Season tickets are £249. That is an excellent deal. I just don't quite get this, let's wait until we see who we sign. We're not in the Premiership. We're not in the Championship. I just don't understand what sort of 'quality' we are expecting. If you buy into the manager and love the club...

    Tony Mowbray closing in on making first signings

    I think agents are right up there with lawyers, taxi drivers, politicians and traffic wardens.

    Wayward Pines

    Anyone else finding it completely illogical and at times, just a bit dumb? I am enjoying it, but I think that is more down to the style over substance and the outstanding performances from a few key characters. Seems they are trying to preserve the human race, yet at the same time will kill...

    Bury splashing the cash

    Me too. At League One level I thought he was going to do very well and I would have expected at least 15 goals from him. When he was at Norwich he looked a very decent player when I saw him.

    Part 3?

    the club must remember

    Well, I know, but let's say we get someone and we need to Google them. Then what? Even if the player did well elsewhere it doesn't mean he is going to do well here. I think most of us were happy with Danny Pugh weren't we? Also with Simeon Jackson. Happened to us many a time when a player has...

    the club must remember

    As was dicussed on a similar thread last week, what 'quality' players are you expecting? I bet you a pound to a penny, when we do sign players, nearly all of them we will be Googling to see who they are. Did we think McGoldrick was going to be quality when we got him? Had any of us heard of...

    Friendliest town or city in England

    Weird isn't it. I can readily accept when people are having a bad day and a few people are rude, but it was every single person we encountered. The guy at the baggage claim, a bus driver who refused to help us and just drove off, an angry, aggressive restaurant owner, the security people at the...

    Friendliest town or city in England

    When I went to Denver I walked into an art gallery and there I found a husband and wife musing over 2 paintings by the same artist, that were for sale. The woman wanted one painting and the husband wanted the other. I stopped to look at the paintings and they immediately asked my advice as to...

    Friendliest town or city in England

    Apart from New York, I have have found them all so hospitable and friendly for sure.

    Yep, me too. Home game and nice win to set us up for the campaign ahead.

    Friendliest town or city in England

    Going from New York one day, to Denver the next, was like going to a different country. People in Denver went out of their way to help. First day we arrived, I got a map out to see where we were and within 15 seconds a guy came over and offered his assistance and then spent 10 minutes talking...
