The Dingles

[tomphil]

They'll probably settle down and get a few wins but i did warn their slavering WUMs on twitter that Kompany's style would struggle in the Prem.

He isn't Dyche who was a master of survival football for years but big Vinny thinks he's doing a Pep.

It's a beautiful sight so far.

With a bit of luck it will be October before they get their first point.

They will kick themselves for not accepting reversing that Luton fixture.

More like November.

Not that it matters massively but that is absolutely not a brick thrown at the bus:

 

 

My guess is a metal water bottle as you can hear it ting and bounce.

I realise it's a me issue, but does wind me up how the whole World is reporting 'brick thrown at bus' when literally 2 mins investigation would show that's not the case.

Also, could the police not try and recover the object as it could have fingerprints and DNA on that a brick wouldn't.

Just dingles being dingles from what I can see.

The bellend who filmed it will surely be getting a visit from plod?

Potentially  as many as six fingerprints on the recovered object,  so presumably more chance  of identifying the culprit.

Depends where you look.

Quite a common feature over that way.

Every cloud……..

We are Premiership, well we are until around the 65 minute mark 🤣

I see there is another television series about the Dingles for us to endure.

It's called Pointless.

I wasn't actually. It just occurred to me at Home Park as the scores were coming through.

I do wonder if Burnley might do an Everton and just about survive as there are 3 worse teams. Luton are an obvious team to go down but there is Everton, Sheffield United and Wolves who may be in the mix.

I follow an account on facebook called footy scran i think it is.

You see some real awful rubbish on there often at the top two tier grounds but by contrast there is some real good stuff and value for money stuff lower down the leagues.

Just shows the lazy corporate greed world of the top divisions run by half arsed execs. If lower clubs and skint clubs can offer some decent grub at an affordable price why can't the 10 million to 500 million turnover clubs ?

You’d have to pay me £10 to eat an Hollands pie. Is it still true there are no cats in Baxendale ?

I think a tour of any processed food factory would put people off it for life.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

I know - I’ve repaired machinery in food factories.

Proper Cornish (TM) pasties on sale at Argyle, made near me, worst pasties in the county - except Ginsters, £3.90 in the shops, £5 .50 in the concourse 🙄

Clearly a mashup between Baxenden and Rossendale!

My granddad worked for a rival Rossendale bakers (Cordeys I think) and taught us this as kids:

Hollands Pies, full of flies

Concrete bottom, rubber sides

Rusty meat and iron jelly

All to go inside your belly

Happy memories!!

It will be 3 from those 5 ...

Luton , I suspect will be bottom..

 The bottom 5 could well be adrift by Xmas , a mini league will begin.

[LeftWinger]

Well they've spent a fortune, not got a single point so far, conceded 11 goals in 3 home games and hard to see where their first points are coming from. £19m on a keeper that hasn't played above League One level. 

Idea for their commercial department:

Sell season tickets for their away end. I don't think they tend to play at home at the same time as Rovers', so I could go and sit in the away end every time they play and have a great time.

[JohnD]

Since relegation they've spent £132m on transfer fees plus agents, wages etc.

Premier league, you're having a laugh 😂
