Big call I think we won’t. Hope to be wrong and your optimism is well placed for once rather than blind naivety!

Burnley just brought in Obafemi on loan with a view, took a while to settle at Swansea after us missing out previously but a good championship forward

The parent literally had to post on the Feniscowles and Cherry Tree community pages to ask to borrow a shirt, bonkers stuff I went towards the end of last season to buy my youngest his first shirt with his name on; they said they could personalise and add his six letter name but had no A’s, R’s or S’s - not much of a name left then!

He’s an absolute disgrace if he even had an inkling of the nature of the keepers complaint and he did his pound shop Robbie Savage routine

Meanwhile just seen Yasir tweet ‘The Footy Curry’ are selling the much sought after Prime today, £10 in a meal deal with a curry, which costs £5 so they are charging a fiver for the prime!

I wonder if Accrington Stanley will be inviting local school kids for a day and giving them all free shirts again? Meanwhile I saw on Facebook that a kid who was meant to be rovers mascot this weekend May not have been allowed to because he didn’t have this seasons shirt, they don’t give you one any more and they don’t even have any to buy so they were having to ask around to borrow one All good though, all good

We’ve dropped the ball massively here Diaz, Rothwell, Nyambe and Lenihan all gone for nothing in a couple of seasons I get you need to take a risk on promotion at times but Rothwell and Diaz last January would have been north of £20m

Let me tell you if you are a collector of previous seasons kids goalkeeper shorts and socks you are in for a treat!

There’s an odd dynamic here, Huddersfield think he’s not ready to help them stay up but we are meant to be fighting at the top end Think he will shine here though https://twitter.com/richsharpe89/status/1618362733904424961?s=20&t=zbO9lkgsGR5djgS9aXz7VQ

Good player, shame there’s no option to buy

Great idea, Yasir is doing some good stuff but I agree with others we need the same effort put into enticing other demographics within the town and surrounding areas

Captain pedantic to the rescue - he has four league goals this season! My work here is done. Captain pedantic - AWAY!

Was he coached by the fabled Runia Boloksov?

Annoyingly good, they’ve had a knack of getting appointments right, not sure yet about Kompany long term but he was backed and got it right Absolute walk in the park sadly

I wasn’t going to make a thread on this as I didn’t think it warranted it but just wondered if anyone has had the same and conquered it? Does anyone else just feel utterly fed up, maybe not even that maybe it’s just absolute apathy. I read the transfer thread to try and get a bit of a spark of interest but there’s not much to get hyped about. I don’t know if it’s just me but for the first time I recall I haven’t got a season ticket, despite being able to afford and being a 30 minute stroll away, I’ve been to two games all season (West Brom and Brum home so very enjoyable occasions) and watched 10 or so on TV but even then it’s hard to really take much interest as you just know as soon as we concede it’s game over. I don’t blame the manager (solely) for this as the rot had set in for me already but after a lifetime of going to Ewood, and over a decade moderating on here I just don’t know if it’s passing me by now! Anyone had a similar rut and come out the other side?

See the Everton owners were advised to stay away today due to a realistic threat on their safety - imagine Jim White and co will be blasting Everton fans, won’t they? And that decision to allow the Fernandes goal today to stand is ludicrous, Rashford literally runs towards and then along the path of the ball, you can’t be more interfering with play without touching it if you tried so will be interesting to see if this is a precedent or just a mistake

Fair one - let me have one ‘see I was kind of right’ chadster moment here

This is what a friend told me when first linked - maybe not so far off now

Markanday man of the match for us, based on the fact there’s at least a glimmer there Diabolical this though

Fittingly embarrassing

Shocking stuff, great strike but awful from Morton and others. JDT to blame there though the subs had to be at half time, and now he leaves Vale on By the way I did say when JDT was first linked that a lad I know from Sweden said he was ‘drab and dull’ I’m seeing that now

Definitely throw Markanday on, nothing to lose

I rate Gallagher more than most do…..but that was awful. It’s basic

Oh my God, Kilkenny? You bastards!

Morton is decent enough, about 3.6 Roetgen, not great, not terrible. On the Dortmund ‘links’ I recall Adam Henley being monitored by Real Madrid, he ended up at Real Salt Lake - then Chorley
