  1. So you can't advertise butter, table salt or Tate and Lyle sugar then? The world is full of ridiculous contradictions and pointless PC exercises. This week I was being lectured to by someone about the use of disposable plastic, after they'd just returned from their 4th holiday abroad of 2019. Fat people will always find fat sugar and salt to eat wherever they are, adverts or no adverts. It's what they do. We've got the most PC approach to food advertising we've ever had and the fattest population to go with it. If any of them stayed at my place for a month and only ate what I ate they wouldn't be the same size afterwards. None will take me up on the offer to prove my point. Fair enough.
  2. Does that club ever stop scoring own goals?
  3. One less matchday to raise revenue. Shame.
  4. 10 for the crowd is impressive, given most of them were at home watching Corrie.
  5. Agreed. We can't start banning people for being a sandwich short.
  6. Well, the gas aren't exactly burdened with IQ.
  7. And the gas think they're a similarly sized club to Brighton ?
  8. They're worse than any ground I think I've ever been to. Even worse than Trumpton.
  9. When the bin is just that bit too far to walk....
  10. Keep the photos coming! Imagine being caught in one of those images and the general public seeing it. The shame of it. They weren't sheltering from the rain. They were incognito - worried someone would find out they'd been to the Mem.
  11. Just look at that, all you disgraceful parents who let your kids support Man U. YOU are partly responsible for this debacle.
  12. For a proper transfer fee that was. About £400k I think. Just enough to rent a screen from Sir Steve.
  13. Keep 'em coming GGMI. Its like listening to Ann Widdecombe trying to convince Margot Robbie that, despite her senior years, she's a far better catch.
  14. I reckon that pass earned us another £300k. Or was it £10m?
  15. These sags clearly don't realise how far behind us they are. Our club of 2015 is miles behind where we are now in every single respect. The Gas couldn't dream of being BCFC of 2015 in terms of structure, fan base etc, let alone us today. They'd be utterly amazed if they stepped into our concourses and walked up into the stands. Dreamworld for them. Like walking into Buck Palace and hoping you could live somewhere like that one day.
  16. Yep. We've been inconsolable all week since losing away to QPR. Even the players struggled to get over it with their 3 wins.
  17. Quite simply unbelievable. And quite clearly has never visited the Amex and their training/community facilities. I have.
  18. So long as the crowds are big enough then yes. Bolton is also under significant pressure from the change in their demographic too. Lets just say the local population is less likely to attend football than would have done 30/40 years ago. Nothing wrong with that, just the way it is.
  19. Maybe that would force the current owner's hand? I wonder if he has the cash but just doesn't want to inject anything. Who knows what he stands to lose/gain depending on the scenario.
  20. When they get a 14 day notice to prove funds. This goes on forever.
  21. Might have been better all round had he been brought on later in the game, letting Oxford go about their business building a strong lead. An impact substitution on 70 minutes against tired legs when 2-0 would have been ideal. Unfortunately it seems the 'occasion' rather overtook the Oxford team.
  22. Good point, but it was kind of "after the horse has bolted".
  23. As a keen photographer I'm impressed with the sharpness of that photo taken from around.... 1968... at a guess. Not always easy to date a photograph so you have to take as many visual cues as possible.
  24. Merging two football clubs is not saving them both. Its creating an entirely new one.
