Re: Shilton Gets Gong
You make it sound like he's been dragging a ball and chain along breaking rocks in a quarry for his crimes. But I suppose the fact that he was a Brexiteer wouldn't endear himself to most on this board, anyway.Max B Gold wrote: ↑Wed May 08, 2024 8:14 pm The man is a twice convicted criminal.

Re: East Stand
I thought that also when I read this. I had never heard of any connection with the east stand we got from Mitchum and greyhound racing before.

Re: East Stand
Is this where the confusion arses??

Re: Barnsley sack manager
Barnsley have sacked their manager. I would think that RW must be a strong contender to replace him. Based on his criticism of some players after Saturdays performance and the clubs failure to match his ambitions it would not surprise me if he was offered the job.. Being close to home and the size ...

No assumptions. I'm just repeating what the mood was like last November/December. There were some people who thought he should go. Absolute madness, as I said at the time. OK, from a fair few to some... Agree Slade football was attractive, Edinburgh's very dull. What a pedant. There were people - o...

The grass is not always greener here - remember, there were a fair few people wanting him removed when we had that dodgy spell late last year.

Re: Anyone think Richie might be off?
I wouldn't particularly want Wellens to go chiefly because I wouldn't really know who to replace him. I think he is overrated though. He’s the best manager we’ve had in my 40+ years. I’m not sure what people expect someone to achieve in a little over 2 years. Yes, I think he's overrated, not so muc...

You suggested in your post above that people who are opposed to Kahn is because he is Asian, Muslim. Having nothing else to say except using this desperate last resort defence means it's end of story for me.
