That's so so sad Al, being a grandfather to five great young kids I simply can't imagine what your going through. All our thoughts are with you at this very sad time, stay strong my friend.

Poor Harry !..........................................

Waiting...................................................................

Wrong guy got sent off, player in blue deliberately head butted the other players elbow .

I think that with his history the odds are in our favour but not a certainty just as everything else in life (except the usual Death & Taxes).

Tinman would've had a fair idea ?

My gut feeling is that JL should have said that he had himself been under performing but we'll never hear that will we ?

And is for Fam !

Also know as pride !!!

Until he can get in "His" players I don't see that he has a lot of choice. I understand the frustration but as you say "We are where we are"

Ok settle down Tone, when you get to my age it's normal cos my missus is a granny

Agreed but if you put Prem money into any league it would be a different proposition.

Sad but I can see the reasoning behind it, until away fans behave like "Good Humans" the home clubs shouldn't have to put up with the damage & trouble caused. I used the word sad because I realise it's the minority that cause the trouble & a shame that others have to be treated the same but hey.....................................................................................that's life.

Still time to catch a viewing at Gepps Cross Tone, 25th & 26th of this month are the final shows. The end of an era mate ?

I think you spelt Wonka incorrectly Tone

Agreed,I think he has shown very good leadership, he has undoubtedly made a couple of bad decisions in life but hey who hasn't?, I know there are things I could have handled a lot better. As you say, the media are quick to pounce on anything to make juicy stories & don't give a 5hit about destroying somebody's reputation

?? - Love it ?

I was pleasantly surprised to hear thar Rooney has turned down the job offer. Not that I'm a Rooney fan by any means but I found it quite refreshing to see some loyalty that is often missing from today's game.

Yes, even taking in to account the mistakes/failings/blunders/**** ups of the Ashton era I still think we are better off than many clubs having the stability of our owners.

And will get well paid for doing so. The amount relegated clubs get still really annoys me but hey ho we don't have that problem yet do we ? C'Mon You Nige !!!

Been there & done that Dr Balls & got the scars to prove it. Them were the days

Cheers Dave

With concussion & the long term effects in Ozzie Rules football we're seeing more & more junior players wearing protective head gear & there a few players at the top level wearing protective equipment also. I realise that our two games are totally different in their structures but does anyone know if any players have tried to protect their heads with similar equipment. I would think that because of the different game formats that such protection would be cumbersome or not feasible but I'm curious to know if it has been tried. I cannot remember seeing anything other than some facial protection for players in the past but maybe some of our OTIB members can enlighten me (without being rude ).

Only one thing worse Major......................a Feral Loof, they are amongst us !!!
