Re: Turn right at t-Bird i-th hand pub Hindley. Wigan away, Sat 16th,3-0'clock

Just seen match highlights on Quest. Know how you feel, it's hard down here at the bottom of the league. At least you still have a chance of staying up, We'll be visiting up there in a couple of weeks but really it looks like both teams are done for. Just to add we're playing a lot better lately but...

Re: Time for someone to cage the fly-away bird? (Norwich (A) Sat. 2018-12-8 15:00)

A strange game. Let's have it right, I can't stand them and their (and our) positions makes sickening reading. However Bolton are right above us in the bottom three so in a bizarre sense I should be applauding their victory. But won't. I saw another thread on the forum about who is likely to join yo...

Re: Suffolk hating or breathing sighs of relief..Versus Ipswich away 22-9-2018.

You may well be content with that rubbish after yesterday but truth be told we're a side that while having certain capabilities, possess not enough belief / determination and all this while bringing in a new manager that is clearly struggling to adapt to a higher league than from where he came. I th...

Re: Suffolk hating or breathing sighs of relief..Versus Ipswich away 22-9-2018.

Well we'll be underway soon enough it should be a good game, just stopped by in the interest of fairness that may the best team win. They're playing the chart "hits" of 2000 on the radio right now that should be a good omen. I look at the teams announced and believe we possess players of potential, ...

Re: What are you watching tonight?

The Departed is on TV again, I saw this a few days ago and not surprised it won a few Oscars. Kind of confusing at times as you can't always tell who is against who and which sides are which but one of those films you need to watch a few times to gain a decent understanding. I think there's Bullseye...

Re: Heading to the Riverside for Pulisball. Middlesbrough (a) 19/9/18 745pm

I was having a look at some of the replies from your most recent game as we play you again this weekend. There are some similarities here such as a questionable starting selection and devoid of effort and interest at certain parts of the game. We endured the same thing with Brentford, in fact the fi...

Re: 1 ppg avg would be suffolking good come Saturday Knight. BWFC v Ipswich 20/1/18 3pm

Well you almost had a victory but we could have stolen it ourselves right at the end, all said a point was probably fair to both teams but the two points missed could prove vital to both clubs ambitions by end of season. McCarthy would have viewed the draw as good as a win, seriously in his mind tak...

Re: 1 ppg avg would be suffolking good come Saturday Knight. BWFC v Ipswich 20/1/18 3pm

Anyone at the game up there today, BBC sport don't tell the whole picture other than stats and all I have is no score at half time amid a somewhat even game ? Yes you need the points to move away from the bottom three but we still have ambitions of a play off finish, even though in reality I admit i...

Re: Bees are kewing up to sting us where it hurts. Brentford v BWFC 13/1/18 3pm

Well there you have it, the teams meet again next weekend and in truth I'm looking forward to it. We were maybe fortunate to take three points from yesterday but that was a goal fitting to win any game and should Celina start for this, we'll have half a chance of taking something back. We're an aver...

Re: 13/01/83 White Hot - The Silver Jubilee

Yeah I remember that, Liverpool were in disarray about then. Not too dissimilar when you played Arsenal a year later and won 3 - 1 if correct at the old Highbury stadium. They had a lot of cup embarrassments in the early 1990s such as with Peterborough and Bristol City, even now thinking back it rem...

Re: What are you watching tonight?

They had the entire series on DVD (at Sainsburys of all places) a year or two ago but for a 20 + pound asking price I'm not enough of a fan to make a purchase. Strange I've never seen this for sale in more relevant places such as HMV or CeX. I catch the re-runs on ITV3 when they put them on if possi...

Re: A taste of honey, or a sting in the beehind? Bolton v Brentford 23/9/2017

I saw the result from this game when looking at other championship action today on the BBC website and from an impartial perspective you've got a lot of trouble up there. Our victory last weekend was nothing fancy, in fact we didn't have much to do to take victory but would have expected an improvem...

Re: What are you watching tonight?

On the Buses. Maybe i'm in a minority but I think this is genuinely amusing. You could get away with an awful lot of slapstick and broad humour in the early 1970s and even today it's full of gems and standout moments. Why ITV feel the need to include it at 1.30 on a Sunday morning is a mystery, but ...

I had the Channel 5 "highlights" show on earlier, and kept waiting for coverage from today but they didn't show it.

Re: Rooney Quits Internationals

Jim Greaves is the greatest English goalscorer this country has seen - so what if Rooney has more international goals, he's so far behind the former for awareness, predatory instinct and finishing, it's almost blasphemy to have them in the same sentence. As others have mentioned, had one standout c...

I was looking through the pages, taking things in and ideally thought our weekends game would be up, but they haven't done the preview yet.

Had to look at the League One table to see where Bolton were. Realised you were in or around the automatic promotion places but just wanted confirmation.

The Long Good Friday. This may seem a premature viewing but it's so good any time of the year is permitted. This was the film that first brought Bob Hoskins to public attention, and a who's who of future names. The soundtrack is horribly dated and the storyline isn't explained until well into the fi...
