Well it started badly, it tailed off a little in the middle & the less said about the end the better!

But apart from that, excellent!

An odd sort of NTTDS thread.

A cry for help?

We shall probably never know.

Always ready to be of service ,googled Glynn Riley and Coronation Street and guess what came up, this particular thread from 2018.

https://www.otib.co.uk/index.php?/topic/196522-question-about-glyn-riley/

Hopefully someone without a computer /mobile phone, access to the internet, can advise but I'm not holding my breath.

At the last count 10 new topics appear on the first page on the forum.

In view of the fact he never engages in debate or posts likes etc on other peoples comments; what is the general consensus for restricting new topics per day or perhaps creating a new sub forum.

I have nothing against NTTDS but his monopoly of new posts is a tad tiresome.

Also interesting that there are 17 clubs, that we're in Divs 3 & 4, who have played top tier football, Div One and Prem, since that time.

Certain irony that my old mucker who started topic 

"City Media dept. Poor English Grammar" shoots himself in the foot, it is were not we're.

I went to the Doctors last week and he said I've now got to have a pacemaker, so I've a got little Kenyan bloke comes everywhere with me now.
 

This surely is a landmark day in the long and illustrious history of OTIB  ,NTTDS has discovered the technology to create a poll.

Over the next few football free months one can only imagine what tortuous choices we will be asked to consider.

Pep Guardiola a poor mans Danny Wilson ,he has one job win the Champions league, despite unlimited resources hailed as a tactical genius  he has failed to deliver .

Genuinely dissapointed this is not a thread on the superior toasting qualities of Warburtons Toastie bread, which I happen to think is best in class

Keep reading about the long delays ,does not match  my recent experience with their new online system.

Obtained digital photo, completed on line form and had received back new passport within 12 working days.

Very impressed .

“Bristol City are the biggest team from the biggest city that’s never been in and so of course on one level, it’s a source of absolute frustration,” he said.

“But I know it’s also a source of frustration to our owner and benefactor Steve who nobody, no Bristol City fan can have any criticism of the way he has run that club. 

“We got to the playoffs. We were only a Dean Windass overhead kick from the Premier League at that point and so we can get close again.”

I still maintain my stance on the 2022 World cup.

Presumably that was before you spent 7.5 hours on the World Cup Portal.

The term “legend” is thrown around too often these days, but I tell you, I’d dine out on sharing a pitch with a man who played for Bath for a small amount of time 5 years ago and probably has to wear a name badge so his own family know who he is

 

When I think of Superstar Legends of the game Clayton Fortune always seems to be knocked off top spot by either Lionel Messi or Christiano Ronaldo but he inevitably makes the top 5

Although I don't have sky maybe a good idea to dump the service for the summer and save a few pennys

As you have to give one months notice of cancellation

Anyone else concerned there may be another thread in a few days on how NTTDS spent 7and half hours negotiating a new deal with Sky.

I have fired off an e-mail to FIFA saying I ain't happy with the way the run the ticket process after trying to buy the seven tickets for the hopefully England games.

I don't expect anything to change,but hey ho,lets see what happens.

Anyone else confused ?

On one hand I thought you were saving your money and not going to Qatar and advising others to do likewise and now you are complaining about the difficulty buying tickets.

Apologies if I have misunderstood but in fairness who could blame me

My Spanish neighbour has just told me off for playing Madness songs too loudly.

A game where stats and blue blobs and crosses on a pitch map don’t really do his performance justice.

It wasn’t perfect but it made a difference.

Dave like yourself, "at least one ageing football fan was gladdened last night by the sight of an English footballer breaking free of the limpid tentacles of packed Mediterranean defence."
