Why dont they just leave the game alone? The sliding tackle is no more The new kick off rule has done nothing to improve the game The offiside rule is more confusing than ever The games fine. Or was fine. But each change is for the worse. The only positive change of the last 20 or so years was the ...

12 million is a lot for a player that turns 30 this year, particularly for a club that tries to play it sensibly, financially. I'd love to see Snodgrass at Burnley but would prefer us to spend money on players that have the potential to turn a profit, where possible. It's a more sensible approach co...

Had a glance at the Norwich forum and there were a good few saying they'd hope not to sell Pritchard, that he's got great potential and hasn't been given a fair run by their manager. I suspect he wouldn't be ready now to improve the first eleven but that's not to say he wouldn't be a useful acquisit...

Tricky, skilful, great with the ball at his feet and very good delivery. Definitely different to Marney.

DCWat

He's nothing like Dean Marney who was not at Hull whilst Snodgrass was there. In fact Boyd and Snodgrass may have only passed each other as one was leaving and the other joining.

DCWat

Has this bloke been informed that teams can be relegated from the Championship!?

DCWat

We definitely used to have White's pies for a while. Not sure if 80s or perhaps 90s. Seem to recall the logo being advertised in the ground or programme perhaps (or maybe just in the tea bars

)

DCWat

I'd have veg with it just not cold and pickled. Would prefer just chips mind!!

DCWat

There goes my theory on the meat to potato ratio

Still not convinced by the pickled veg with a pie though.

DCWat

That's my thought, Spades.

I assume it's a lower ratio of meat to potato. I'd always opt for more meat and less potato, which to me would be a meat and potato pie. I wouldn't be having it with pickled vegetables of any variety either

DCWat

Must have read your threads Ablue and decided you're right, we just can't manage these foreigners.

DCWat

I dont think Norwich fans like him either

DCWat

Or a quiche? It's all too confusing

What about pastry on the bottom, a tart or still a pie?

DCWat

OK leaving aside the issue of Bisto granules.....

Shouldn't a proper pie be encased in pastry, not just on top?

DCWat

I want to read in to it that it's all going ahead - so why isn't it looking good?

DCWat

Butter pies don't sound nice

DCWat

Is pie with pickled veg on the side a bit of a Lancashire thing, and potato pie too? They used to do potato pie at the ground - I'd just assumed it was because there was that little meat in them, using the word meat would be wrong :) If I remember rightly, they also used to do a butter pie!? Never h...

Why is it all getting messy? Sounds far more positive than previous windows to me.

Midfield, midfield, midfield. That was our failing on both our previous premier league attempts. This time we are much stronger in the middle.

DCWat

Definitely - he might as well announce us (and it's not Burnley Football Club" walking on to the field) and then say "fuckin hell - them lot are here as well".

DCWat

And there are those who want to be supportive of all players wearing our Claret + Blue including our squad players who are no longer starters. Those who look for the positives rather than the negatives. Let the manager decide who leaves and who stays, but while they are here lets be positive and su...

20m for the pair (Snodgrass and Brady) would be amazing business. We are short of left sided midfielders. (I'm not entirely joking!) We would be Centre Forward (to be bought in the summer) away from a "proper" Premier League squad. It'd be a gamble if the worst came to the worst but a great move an...

Yes please!

Mee has done enough to expect a place - on the whole. Unfortunately, he's madea number of errors that have resulted in goals this season and no one could say his distribution is good enough. If Tarkowski is better (and I genuinely think he is) he should be in the team. No room for sentiment or to th...

One of the best celebrations I remember is after Mellon had scored against Blackpool (long distance screamer). When he ran backwards towards the Blackpool fans who had been goading him all game, pointing to the name on his shirt. Ade Akinbiyi's worldy that never was (still to this day don't know why...

DCWat

Probably not the best match to judge them in but the only opportunity so far (?). How were Tarkowski and Keane as a partnership? One I've wanted to see for some time now.

DCWat

I'm changing my mind on this one. We have JBG who I would say is a better player than Brady on one side and Boydy on the other who has been fantastic this season and undroppable with the way he is playing. We are not a club about paying high wages and never will be. £50,000 per week scares me - I d...

A cup run would be a nice bonus but there's too many posts appearing to suggest that we've all but survived already. I'm not one for all these mantras and cliches but one game at a time is bang on and has served us very well so far. Let's not get ahead of ourselves, league or cup, these things have ...

The worst thing for me in all of that is that it was your nephew's first thought. Why that's the case I don't know (and I hope it's not because of past experiences) but it's a shame that even a youngster thinks this way - it shows that there is a lot to be done until such thoughts are a thing of the...

All clubs have a small majority of racist fans, it's like some people don't live in the real world and are surprised when they see racist behaviour. There are fooked up people in the world and all sorts of crazy **** goes on, surely they have a better story to write. Hopefully more of a small minor...

Maybe head stewards who come up with gems like "I'm no good with foreign names" could be stuck into that article after reading my name conpletely wrong off my season ticket. Or the fact my nephew genuinely asked "why are they moving us, is it because we're asian?" When moved seats on Saturday in th...

Heart warming and heart breaking at the same time.

Typical Billy big ******** type players. All the talent in the world but no real desire, drive and application. There are plenty players like that who are happy to steal a wage by showing up once every five or six games. English football demands much more than that and so do the fans - exactly the s...

I had the same travelling from Bingley to Leeds. Had to give details and then log on to a website to pay the fare. I'm not certain but I think that they may have stopped this now (in West Yorkshire at least) as it was all a bit farcical. I've witnessed a good number of arguments on trains when guard...

One day there might be a thread that doesn't have any bickering, bitching and tiresome arguments!

Marney had a poor game yesterday and I would have opted for Hendrick out wide, but he had a great game in the middle, so it was a tricky one. Defour did OK but no more and needs to be central.

DCWat

Never seen him with his finger up his nose, but he does forever seem to be rubbing it with the back of his hand. Maybe the perils of continually wearing a lightweight mac, even in the coldest of conditions, is that the nose runs too much

That could of course be a timing issue. If there are a large number of more severe cases to deal with, less severe (and I don't know the ladies medical issue) will rightly be delayed. Every place I've worked there are cuts and efficiencies being made. For the past five or more years it seams that is...

10 million for Jerome, 3 million for Snodgrass. OK.

What happened to those rules where shirts couldn't be changed every season. They did come in for a while didn't they, but assume that was quickly stopped!?

CumbrianClaret would have loved this thread. I don't think it's simply a case of being loyal and ignoring the money or supporting a non-league club. The money and all the nonsense is pretty impossible to ignore. Everyone knows where the train is heading, no one seems to want to go there, but most pe...

Or perhaps more importantly, hopefully we have someone that we believe to be a better option lined up.

Don't Virgin limit theirs during peak hours, whilst SKY is consistent? I'm on SKY Fibre and would only swap to BT but not really worth it because of the TV package. Never really had any issues with SKY.

I wouldn't want to be using Keane as part of any bargaining tool. If he's to go, which we know is pretty likely, I want us to be getting the very best deal possible and not having some form of agreement in place that may reduce what we could expect for him.
