    The Royle’s need to get to Burnley and offer Bobby Lad the job!

    This has to be one of the very best discussions I have read on CockneyLatics.

    before offside rule came in.

    How old are you?

    Go on, I’ll set somebody up:

    What did Billy die of?

    Toney’s a league 1 striker and didn’t cut it with us, but we had people who did. I wish them luck getting anywhere near £13m

    There have been plenty times also when he has nodded it to the likes of nobody even when he has had support from Jacobs, Massey and Lowe, et al.

    Moore 2 in 3 for Wales but yet to score an outfield goal for us? Player or managers fault?

    It would help if Moore could do better with the chances that arise in Latics games. E.g. scoring when put clean through on goal, but not being fast enough. Cook’s fault?

    Caldwell

    For all his faults, he was a promotion winning manager and for that, successful.

    Cracking piece of publicity work, on the eve of the season. Thats how I see it.

    4000 away fans singing “what the f is that?” May see it differently. Ha ha.

    Summat for the kids.

    Agree totally. And tbh if they wonder what the f is that, then they are idiots.

    Now compare that to Partick whose mascot is (I think) vaguely like a thistle (yellow?) but looks as miserable as sin, permanently angry, compared to jolly Crusty.

    ‘I love him’

    I have it from a reliable sauce (geddit?) that the person inside the pie is not a ‘him’.

    Pathe News say they will come down and film it and release a grainy film of events but only on a reel to reel film.
    There may be a chance for a Beta max copy in future years.
    Anyone with a cinecamera can come along and do a copy for themselves, but you will be charged half a crown for the privelege.
    Bowls of gruel and stale bread will be offered as refreshments and a return ticket on the charbanc can be booked for sixpence leaving the Old Gas Showrooms on the hour every hour from 5.30am for fans to come and watch,(a shirt and tie with a flat cap is mandatory).

    Bowls of gruel you say, luxury![/quote]

    Are you not telling us your age whilst you are here Goole Away, or will we know that it wasn’t possible for you to have been there in ’71.
    I reckon with your Monty Pythonesque comment of ‘Bowls of gruel you say, luxury’! You are old enough to have been there and will raise our overall average age.[/quote]

    Although associated with Monty Python, it was originally performed on ‘At last the 1948 show’. I’m older than I think!

    Is it wrong to get so fascinated and misty eyed by an old bit of wood, concrete and corrugated iron?

    No, it’s not. It looks more like asbestos sheet than corra, corre, corri, wriggly tin.

    Boyce
    Baines

    They’ve got my votes so far with the Reading game being my favourite moment. Mistake from the club though in the list. The Utd game was August 4th. The Morecambe game was August 1st.

    According to the ticket, the game on 1st August was against ‘Morcambe’

    I’d argue that some Liverpool fans are exactly the same. All of the top clubs will have fans of the same ilk. I just have a disliking of all things scouse.

    I was once expressing my dislike of scousers to a workmate.

    “They’re either whores or footballers” I said.

    “Hang on a minute, my wife a scouser”, said my mate.

    “Oh really, what position does she play?”

    I’m sick of seeing car flags and houses decorated round Wigan. F*** off back to Liverpool if you wanna do that.

    I hope they get stuffed.

    If Liverpool win we won’t hear the last of it for weeks. An antidote for their persecution complex.[/quote]

    I,d rather have gloating Liverpool fans who actually know about football as opposed to the many plastic Mancs who don’t even know where Old Trafford is. Anyway I have to entertain the Scoucers after the game so its better for me if they are in a good mood.[/quote]

    Are there no plastic scousers?

    in reply to: Play-offs – Who do we want to play next season? #178969

    My choice of Play Off winners would be –

    Derby County
    Charlton Athletic
    Newport County

    Mine also, I’ve a £20 treble on those 3 teams at odds of 33/1.[/quote]

    Oh bugger!
