    Unusual Events

    Stumbled across this earlier. It was before my time, but given the stature of the player and the fact it was a World Cup qualifier at Highfield Road I'm surprised I've never heard of it before. Were there many other events like this from our past?

    Adverts

    Not sure if / when this changed, but I'm logged in and can barely read threads due to the level of adverts. Any ideas?

    Sheffield Wednesday

    I see their chairman has had a bit of a rant about their fans: Sure there was another chairman who had some kind of 'club statement' meltdown a couple of years back too. How do some owners think this kind of thing helps?

    Things that don't happen nowadays

    Apropos of nothing, I was wondering why don't you hear about footballers swallowing their tongue nowadays - it seemed to be quite a big thing in the 90s.

    Homegrown Strikers

    Was just thinking about Paul Furlong for some reason, and it made me wonder. How many homegrown, out-and-out strikers have we had who actually cemented a place in the first team and banged in the goals? I can think of Wilson, but that's about it in recent years, and he was pretty much a...

    Statto

    As a big fan of football statistics, I just wondered what go-to sites people use. There's sites like whoscored and transfrmarket and Infogol, but are there any others that people would recommend?

    Millwall Boss Speaks

    Millwall boss Neil Harris told BBC London 94.9: "I thought it was a shambles at times to be honest. "It really hurts to be honest and I'm not sure it hurts some of those players in the dressing room as much as it hurts me." "We knew they had dangerous players, they had exciting players but...

    1995

    Just having a sort out and found an old program from 1995. Squad list on the back shows luminaries such as Ally Pickering, Willie Boland and very old versions of Gary Gillespie and Peter Shilton. However, squad number 21 was held by Carlita. To be honest, I can't remember the guy and can't even...
