The oddballs over the river keep telling us how wonderful the Mackems think they are. I think that love affair has gone a bit sour in recent times. Slagheads were bitching about something or other the last time they played? In turn Sunderland fans found out that Slagheads were cheating on them by sucking up to Ipswich fans, telling them how much they’ve always admired their club, how they shouldn’t be in L1, “wot about us, aren’t we nicer than da shit?” etc. The usual cringy ass kissing. Needy, dickless simps. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many years ago (50?), my sister joked that the reason her knickers were labelled C&A was so she knew which way round to wear them. It took me several years before I understood the joke. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HitchinRed Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 Given the rising cost of garden furniture and the amount of stock held at the Memorial ‘stadium’, his will have doubled the value of the ground. Great news for Waël if he is looking to cash in. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-56357221 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 I see Salford City were holders of the Football League Trophy for one day.

With Burton pulling away now it`s any four from six I reckon. Please let it happen! Well they've got managerless Charlton tomorrow. So I expect they will hoping for a win, whilst a victory for Charlton would put them in play off contention.

From memory the Bank was their main pub in town. The others were just known as places Rovers fans went. The fact they were shitty little unpopular places highlights their insignificance. Obviously they frequented others, but not in any great numbers, unless it was a quiet night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRock Posted March 16, 2021 Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 Talking about pubs..... what was the one out at Filton that had a bit of a City/Sags history? What’s the story behind that one? Seemed a bit remote from our heartlands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
