Crossing at Gaol Ferry Bridge leaves you with a long, dull, polluted and noisy trek up Coronation Rd. 

But we've got the lovely CAZ. Should all smell of roses now?! 

No mention on TV of the booing our anthem and then praising the atmosphere during theirs. Hope we hammer em.

We should install this and then retract part of the pitch if we're doing badly. Be easier to defend half the pitch. If we do it when they have a throw-in, their player might fall in the gap.

And add a tilt function so the opposition always have to attack uphill

As a percentage of the revenue generated I thought women get a far larger amount than the men. 20% as oppose to 7%. Not saying they shouldn't get more, just highlighting a different view.

VAR should be an appeal system where the captain of each side, if they feel aggrieved, they can appeal said decision and it go for review - similar to the rugby.

2 appeals per team, so have to be used wisely.

But what happens if the captain is no where near the incident? A player would need to be given the time to go his captain to explain why they feel a review would be worthwhile. Another stoppage in play. VAR for clear and obvious errors, not replay and replay. Things can look far worse in slow-mo too which doesn't help the decisions.

There are some classic comments on the planning application portal. My favourite so far has to be the one below. 2023 standards?!!

Sorry this may have been mentioned and missed by me, but is that a statue of a horse outside their toilets!?

It's their version of the "This is Anfield" sign. Instead of tapping it, they punch the bugger instead

Pretty sure that's related to the fixtures calendar on the old site. Guess removing it from your calendar should sort it.

Thanks, I'll give that a try. Didn't think to check my calendar.

Is anyone else's Outlook constantly asking for username/password to "download www.bcfc.co.uk/c/27323"?

Mine's been doing it all day. Could be for an image in an email maybe? I've entered the correct details but no luck.

It keeps coming back and it's driving me crazy!

If we have gone back in time don't let Frankie play against Wolves....

And tell Flint not to hang around up front.

Give the winners a place in the Champions League - then watch all the bigger teams take it more seriously.

That's what I've just asked above!!

We were typing at the same time. As I pressed 'Submit' I then saw your question.

Do the tickets automatically update per game? Or will we be getting emails for each and every game?

Well there's a surprise.........The Fiorentina President accusing West Ham of being "Animals" who were so  aggressive that Fiorentina players could not concentrate on football because of threats to their safety?  Apparently Fiorentina deserved to win 3-0 ?   It is so sad when the   losers regress into blaming everyone but themselves, I seem to remember a few Italian players reacting as if they had been shot by a sniper when they had been brushed by an opponents hand or a West Ham player breathed near them?   Ha!     

He's also conveniently forgotten the attacks on innocent West Ham fans during the day. Such a shame a few idiots throwing glasses/cups are spoiling the headlines. And we all wonder why we can't have a beer watching a game!?

The volume at the moment is deafening in here. And I’m in the Dolman 

Weird cus on the pitch it was the worst PA ever at the gate. £80 to hear the South Stand sing Artic Monkeys. Thanks.

Rotate it 90degrees and it would make a great roof for their new stand. 

Shame you can't buy two of anything. My kids would have liked a boot bag each,

I think the pin the tail on the donkey stall would do some business.

'Punch a horse in the face' stall would be more appropriate.

Aren't O'Neills big in Ireland with Gaelic football shirts.

Can any fellow reds living in the Emerald Isle give us an idea of the quality of those shirts?

Have we just picked the lowest quality shirts possible - or are all of their kits questionable?

Likely to be some seats taken by season ticket holders of both teams.

Unless they pick a cup game?

Bolton's manager said after the match they only picked up one injury a hamstring. Nothing about a concussion.

Maybe they found out he have concussion after he came off when the player referred to the tents as a 'stand'?

And flags on the half way line. Do any clubs still have these?

Either Luton or Millwall would be good to rough up some of those pampered Premier League stars! They wouldn’t fancy a trip to either for sure…

With VAR there to protect them, I'd doubt they'd worry too much.
