Sheff Utd 2 down at Chelsea, hope the Luton player is OK but suspect we'll see the game abandoned now. Or could it be restarted at a leter date from this point?

Rovers 2 down

Nothing to do with aiming for longevity well into old age. Eating healthily and exercise is more about avoiding the type of stuff that can crew you up when you could be enjoying an active and heathy middle-age - like heart disease, risk of stroke, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, osteoarthriti...

Be a decent treble!

I have put mine on the official club exchange after they emailed. I don't believe they will offer it out though as it is in the CF stand.

Wouldn’t even worry about it. You say you live in a safe relatively crime free area. If you put yours in front of it the worst that could happen is a break in or vehicle fire. Both extremely unlikely. And, if it does get damaged for whatever reason, it obviously happened the day before/after of cou...

Birmingham 4th in the league above us, so will be a good test for the ladies.
The league looks like a 2 horse race between us and Newcastle. Could all come down to our home match with them.

Given how tight the away game was, it could all come down to goal difference!

Ok thanks but I noticed Liverpool broadcast the last game

That wasn't the PL Cup.

Not trying to take anything away from the Burnley team, but Coundon Cort, I think are a school. So well done to them too. What is the point of a game like that ? They may be a team from a school, but they were obviously good enough to qualify for the 1st round and then win that game. Respect is due...

Did JRod sign in and vote for himself?

Whoops. Didn't edit in time after I realised this sounds worse than I intended it too. JR didn't have a poor game, but was nowhere near consideration for MOM, in my, occasionally humble, opinion.

Berge and Brownhill are building a good partnership so it would be disappointing if Josh leaves. However, the club will need to recoup funds wasted in the summer so Pace and co. could be tempted if a fee around £10m is offered. Who would we make a loss on from last summer? Remember these were all y...

Give it a rest? Who are you! Lucky today and a good performance by Trafford. 4-1 otherwise...and it'd be the same again. Pressing, attacking and luck don't guarantee points, look at us at Forest, v West Ham, Palace, United, and probably more. We could have been 2-0 before their equaliser, they coul...

The contact wins the ball, therefore it is a freekick, not sure it's handball though

However, all private owned train operating companies (Arriva et al) still manage to make a profit.... Only because the government give them the money.

Since avanti took over from virgin prices have shot up. They have the monopoly from the north west down to London so can charge what they want.

But the vast majority of those will be due to non-attendance of ST holders and those are counted in the attendance/gate figure.

Indeed. I did not attend but as far as BFC are concerned the seat is paid for, therefore sold, whether I attend or not.

From Prime:

Solid display, controlled the game without being overly swayed by histrionics or player's opinions.

bfcmik

Very predictable, generic commentary with no depth of background. Went to Stadium sound only way before half time.

bfcmik

JBG, JRod and Amdouni were very average, JBL nowhere near as effective on the left as he was on the right, perhaps Zaroury might have been the better swap for Koleosho, Berge and Brownhill were effective in midfield again and O'Shea had a superb game. Having said that, apart from the mistake, the ga...

It's so dreary
But the only song sung at a slow speed

I don't get some posters' fascination for slow speed. As an elderly rocker I like my tunes fast, minimum 7/8 time but 16/16 time is even better

Last season we didn't look that good until we hit 5 in a game, then it was steamroller time. We've maybe left it too late for the title this season though

Not sure Pat Nevin realised what he said here. 17:14 Post update Arsenal 2-0 Wolves Pat Nevin Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 Live "There was a hand on Jesus' shoulder but it wasn't enough to make him go flying the way he did." A post from the future? It's only 16 something o'clock yet ;)

Gudmudsson really impressed me with his CM conversion last year. He's not dynamic enough to be a prem winger now but he's an incredibly clever, experienced player with great vision, positioning, reading, and passing. Last season he would slot in all over the pitch, one minute left back to let Maats...

JBL has a very high potential, was really looking like a hot prospect before injuries knocked him back hard. I suspect he will be an essential part of our season

bfcmik

I actually think McBernies red is harsh, his arm goes up cos he jumps, never looks at O'Shea so isn't sighting the elbow. If that was on one of ours I'd be fuming. But it's not and we've had some awful decisions against us so hopefully that seals this one The sending off was for a 2nd yellow, which...

Sheffield will see Jay's name on the teamsheet and breathe a sigh of relief. Can't see why Obafemi doesn't get a go or even Larsen upfront.

That lasted well

However.... I genuinely suspect the officials were making amends for the penalty that was given though. That was softer compared to our first shout.

It may have been 'softer' but it was still a definite penalty.

Someone needs the balls to tell him the belief isn’t there when we’re 1-0 up with 10 minutes to go, that’s when the belief actually matters. And that is when the lack of confidence engendered by this long run of poor results kicks in. It isn't playing well enough to get our noses in front it is not...

No they've never included the CFS in the scheme.

It is slightly ridiculous in that they will let me give the ticket to my son, and accept the extra payment (senior to adult), or a friend, or even someone who asks me for it but won't officially allow me to put it up for the ticket exchange scheme.

Won 9-1 in the 2nd round of the women's FA Cup this afternoon against Alnwick Town at Clitheroe FC. Would be nice to see this site offer them the same coverage and support as the u21s and youth teams get. (Full disclosure: I haven't seen any of the 3 teams at a 'home' game for over 40 years.

There were definitely 4 together showing in a couple of stands on Friday. The seats which ST holders can't use are returned to the Club and then those seats are made available on the online seating plan. Not yet available for the Cricketfield Stand, I believe. I did ask the club earlier this season.

bfcmik

You must get great value for money from your season ticket. As someone who has to travel over 250 miles round trip to get to a game at Turf Moor the value of my season ticket is that I can come to any game I feel like and stand in front of my preferred seat, I maintain my place in the top priority ...

bfcmik

My seat in the CF, as it has been most of the season, is empty today. Struggling to justify the ~£70-100 travel and day out costs despite having the ticket already paid for.

No idea, what happened :D :D :D I know a lot of supporters were not that keen on Ashley but for me he was one of those players whilst not being the most skilful gave everything he had to the cause.
