What incredibly astute consumer tip are you going to come out with today?

“If you look for discarded food in the skip outside restaurants, it’s cheaper than buying groceries in Tesco”

I suppose we can’t all come out with groundbreaking tips like “if you find bands that nobody has heard of their gigs are cheaper than Rolling Stones concerts”.

There’s a typo in point 17 of their T&Cs. You’d think a betting company would be sh*t on things like that. Amateurs. Wow, the phrase ‘too much time on your hands’ springs to mind Rev, if you have even bothered with this to, A) read the T&Cs, and B) spotted a typo in point 17. It didn’t take...

Me neither but from the comments above it seems like only 1, so you’re wrong. If it is only 1 ex-Stevenage player then yes, I’m wrong on this occasion. My general statement that players tend to sign quicker for managers they have a good history with isn’t exactly controversial. Either way, I couldn...

They also sign quickly for managers they have played for before (i.e. are guaranteed to be in the first team). I haven’t paid close attention to who Evans has signed but I would imagine many are former Stevenage players? So how many of those signed already have played for him before? No idea. I don...

Steve Evans has now already made 5 signings He believes (as I do ) in getting your signings in quickly. Ling however believes in waiting late, which frustrates the you know what's out of me And to those r boarders who say Evans rushes it, and we get better by waiting, I disagree. Stevenage finished...

Despite our back and forth on this a while ago, I actually think you’re entirely correct on this issue, and your view is legitimate I can’t remember if I’ve said it or not, but my main objection to the whole thing is slightly less about Simpson as an individual (although I do think he’s a fanny) an...

Long and short of it is the club can sign a guy who has done this if they believe it’s worth the damage to relations with the fans that take exception. The fans who take exception are under no obligation to get onboard if they feel that the club’s stance is wrong. The people who made these decision...

Only from you. Let it go , it’s boring. It’s not helping him and it’s not helping the club. Good, I have no interest helping either parties Not sure why you contribute then. It’s a LOFC fans forum. You clearly are not one and if you are , probably not one the club cares about losing. Not wanting th...

I’m sure everyone on this board has said something on the spur of the moment that they have regretted. Are the board racist because he’s been given a chance to redeem himself? The guy looks a decent player why not give him the benefit of the doubt. Ah back to this again, are we? Have I said things ...

Not funny, not necessary. Neither is employing a racist. Each to their own I suppose BiggsyMalone , the messageboard saint 😇. Look , we’ve already spoken about this at length on the other thread . Pratley and Beckes know a lot more about this than we do and they have both accepted it . I trust thei...

Very little arsing about.

Ironic really given the size of his fat backside

From “set-piece coach” to league winning manager. Maybe we were too hasty giving McMahon the heave-ho

Were Burnley really able to pay Vigs a salary much higher than a championship team where he would have had more of a chance of actually playing? It’s not like he went to Man City. Are Burnley really paying that much for their 3/4th choice GK? I find it hard to believe that there wasn’t an offer on t...

Yep, everyone's been saying this for the past 2 years.

And they’ll continue to say it for the next 10!

I guess you’ll engage with it if I was to take the mod to task? If you set up a separate thread to abuse them then I might have something to say. If you contain your abuse to within this thread then I am inclined to ignore it as I genuinely do not want to be involved in this particular discussion. ...

LSN - much like EFL officials he has an impossible job keeping peace in a sometimes heated and chaotic environment. He does an admirable job keeping law and order on here even when it can get a bit tasty. He is fair but firm when he needs to be. Considering this is a guy doing it in his spare time ...

Do you have any detailed insight about the owners of Crawley town?

Only thing that's tragic is your terrible attempts at wumming. I haven't changed anything - I can't help it if you can't read. I said they need a few hundred more on the gate but it was you that said 300 and I pointed out that they need more than that. A 1000 on average a game required to get near ...

Christ mate, let it go. What are you getting so het up about? I've already said the Sears figure being bandied about on the terraces was ridiculous. And just that, a rumour doing the rounds. I heard that he was on £2,000 per week plus an appearance fee of a kilo of Angus Beef steaks and a bonus of ...

Interesting that they decided to pour their many millions into Braintree Town rather than their local club Coggeshall Town FC. What’s the story behind that?

Hoover Attack wrote: ↑Thu May 09, 2024 9:29 pm And one of them isn’t even trying to have a row, just repeating some gossip heard on the Braintree terraces

The phrase “wealthy Coggeshall families” also made me chuckle. Isn’t there about 23 people living in Coggeshall in total?
