    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.

    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...

    Friendliest town or city in England

    Think our New York visit was summed up perfectly by the left luggage place. We dropped our luggage off at the airport, to a very large guy (small American) who was sitting on a chair with his feet up, reading a newspaper. He made no attempt to take our luggage off us and made us lift the bags...

    Friendliest town or city in England

    Weird isn't it, cause every single person I encountered in New York was damn right rude. The following day I flew to Denver and everyone there was like a breath of fresh air. Have to say New York was the rudest place I have ever been to. Always find London rude, but compared to new York, they...

    Friendliest town or city in England

    I know I said tomorrow, but it is actually next week. I think Tuesday and Wednesday, but we are waiting for confirmation. We were right on the waterfront yesterday, by the Liverpool Museum. We were actually in the Cunard building. Same place next week I think. Will need a hotel for the one...

    Friendliest town or city in England

    Thanks, Jimmy. Everyone seemed chirpy and smiling. People seemed genuinely interested in us and wanted to know more about us. When we spoke people immediately identified we were not local from our very posh Coventry accents and asked us if we were having a nice time and what did we think of...

    Lack Of Transfer Activity

    Not at all worried at the moment. They key isn't bringing people in, it's making sure you bring the right people in.

    Friendliest town or city in England

    Yep, that's true I have found. The wealthier the area, the less friendly people are. There does seem to be an air of importance about some people due to the fact of them seemingly having money. We have been travelling a lot, but the Liverpudlians have been far and away the friendliest...

    Game of Thrones

    The only emotional scene for me was that of Stannis' daughter's sacrifice. The rest did nothing for me and indeed, failed to engage me much at all.

    Friendliest town or city in England

    Weird that. We encountered 10 people on a one to basis and every single one was really lovely and I mean out of their way lovely. There was a woman in the bank, a shopkeeper, police man, 3 security guards and the people we went to see too. Everyone to a man were so friendly. We are back...
