Just in the fan zone and the choice of booze was dark fruit or foster’s. Like choosing between a kick in the crotch or a kick in the face.

A Clitheroe lad and a Rovers fan too, by all accounts!

Do people really give a shiny shite what Bolton fans think? With the state of their accents? Christ. It sounds like someone from East Lancs has suffered some head trauma. Gimps.

Seen worse, tbf

See you in there, mine’s a Heineken 😏

Whilst you’ve clearly never liked him for whatever reason, at least he scored a few for us!

You didn’t think we should direct our anger at The Venky’s. Thought that was an interesting take, as they own the gaff….

For the avoidance of doubt for anyone else, so we can draw a line under all this and get back to pre season chat. We moderate according to the rules and terms and conditions of the site that you have all agreed to. If you have a post hidden, it’s because you’ve contravened the above. For the last time, if you want to query a post being hidden, PM a mod, or ask the question in ask admin, any further posts contravening this in the threads will be hidden.

The site owners 👍.

It’s nothing like 1984, don’t be so melodramatic. The vast majority of posters have never had a post hidden on here. Besides, the mods will decide what stays and what goes, thanks! Anyhow, pre season….

Contentious is allowed, sure. But JohnGo thought there was nothing contentious in his post, so I pointed him in the direction of what was.

Because we run the site in our own time, for free, make the decisions and that’s the process we want you to follow? Do you really think that saying ‘HR is filled by incompetent, self centred morons’ isn’t contentious? Like really?

Seems like people are getting a bit confused about when posts are hidden, but don’t worry, uncle K-Hod is here to explain the process we want you to follow, again. If you’ve a query about a post being hidden, use ‘ask admin’ or send a mod a PM. Please don’t clog up the threads. Ta.

I’ve just sorted mine online. I’d recommend doing it on a laptop or tablet though. It was a nightmare trying to sort it on my phone…

I have tried to do it online on my phone, but it was being a right pain. I’ll try it again on the Mac….

Are they final comments? Or are they first impressions based on what people have seen so far? Unless people have said they’re final, maybe take them as the latter?

Just for a bit of context- my Netflix subscription costs £9.99 a month and I know I use this site much more than I use that! It is also the time taken by staff (not just me), the admin team behind the scenes put in far more time and effort than people realise. Whilst I can understand that ads are annoying and the idea of something potentially not being free any more that has been free for years isn’t ideal, we are doing the best we can to please everyone. In an ideal world, everything would be free for eternity and have no adverts, but that simply isn’t feasible any more, unfortunately. I’d hope people would appreciate that.

I wouldn’t be so sure that everyone would, but as long as people understand that the site being free without adverts isn’t happening, that’s the best we can hope for….

In fairness, you’d never usually hear from the assistant manager at any other club….

He’s a Clitheroe lad and Rovers fan too. I can see the unveiling now….

I was only young at the time of the City game, but I’m sure one team had forgotten their away kit one time and we had to wear our away kit at home? Might not have been that game, mind…

Unless I’m playing in it obviously!

Lovely away shirt is that. I’m 37, so too old to wear football shirts myself, but, credit where it’s due!

Dave’s new album. Christ. Lyrically amazing as ever, very powerful and some typical hip hop braggadocio. Lovely stuff.
