When the cricket stopped and they built the new main stand, the cricket pavilion was left standing for a long time in the car park at the back of the stand.

Still no apology? Well it had better come or I’ll take some action. I’m not having these accusations thrown at me and the mods.

Something like that, was definitely due to him celebrating in front of the Longside.

Strangely the Swansea pen, which was an awful decision from Taylor, was our fifth of six in 2016/17 but then none in 2017/18 and only two last season.

Twitter is full of "Paul Pogba has missed four penalties in the Premier League since the start of last season; the most of any player in the competition" He has missed more pens in the past year than we have had in the past 3 seasons I reckon :roll: To get to four pens in the Premier League you hav...

That is absolutely correct. Do you remember when Peterborough Utd were found to be in breach of the rules in the early 60s and were told that they would be relegated at the end of the season? They had no further incentive to win matches, and effectively gave up. Without checking I think they were p...

ClaretTony

Your last point is correct. What would be the point of a further points deduction? They're as good as relegated now, so they could just continue messing everyone around and end up on minus 50. But minus, 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 what does it matter? Meanwhile they're distorting the competition / league...

Head could have been turned with the Leicester speculation but looks like he has just got on with it and started the season superbly. When he is on it, there are not many better defenders in this league. Dyche, generally, brings in strong characters who are more likely to get on with things. Tarky ...

It will be less enjoyable. VAR as it’s been so far is awful.

Dyche would be furious if one our defenders turned his back and ducked

It used to be the done thing to mock the old school administrators of the FA and Football League but they put the jokers who run things now to shame I think the Premier League has been well run, certainly in the Scudamore era, but the Football League has been anything but.

I think there’s been a mix up I also thought one of my posts had been removed because I can remember SWC post on Vydra and I had mentioned that some overage players were allowed - but it was on the article thread I’m just not having people throwing around accusations like that when they are simply ...

Treading carefully here, I'm fairly certain the replay was the game where a fan sadly suffered a fatal heart attack ? I think Brian Deane got a hat-trick in the replay after Inchy gave us an early lead ... finished 2-5 ish .. Was 4-2 - Heath & Mornington for us and I think Deane(3) & Littlejohn fit...

Well when you watch it again keep your eyes on the defenders back foot which is in the air, and it is that foot that causes James to go down. Just an accident, certainly not a dive and definitely not a card. Watched it closely and I don’t think there is any contact. I think Moss has got the yellow ...

Just seen this from the league:

The EFL remains acutely aware of the ongoing risks this challenging and complex situation has to the integrity of the competition

I hope they are aware.

ClaretTony

I’m not sure the league really know what to do but this decision is appalling given they’ve not even spoken to Doncaster. You can’t award them the game in fairness but Bolton, should they eventually play, will have to have points deducted. It has surely now reached the point where the league must ex...

I went to that 62 cup game with my grandad. Seem to remember that part of the wall just behind the goal at the big home end gave way. It did give way, at the Shoreham Street End. I went with my dad and we were at the Bramall Lane End. Really bad fog on the way home and my mum was frantic because sh...

Damn Memory!!! I was sure we should have had a penalty early on and it was Eyres that was fouled I've dug the team out for you - it was Marlon Beresford, Ian Measham, Joe Jakub, Steve Davis, John Pender, Andy Farrell, Robbie Painter, Adrian Randall, Adrian Heath, Mike Conroy, Steve Harper. One chan...

He failed the fit and proper test however there's nothing to stop Dale becoming the owner. The EFL penalised Bury with a player registration embargo. The rules are shot, Bury should have been suspended in December rather than an embargo. The whole situation with both clubs is now farcical. Bolton h...

I still don't understand why the league stopped Bury from playing but allowed Bolton to play. Bolton tried to get Saturday's game at Tranmere called off but the league wouldn't allow it, now they have called one off regardless.

Brilliant pictures, thanks CT. Don’t think you’d get much of a view of the football from that pavilion!!!
