  1. I was disappointed not to hear any mention of Prince Henry, who seems to have had a lot of short term loans this season. Is he progressing OK? 18 and seems to have echoes of Semenyo.
  2. They certainly had a long fallow period! 40 years between their second and third titles (1911 and 1951). I don’t think they were really a top club before Busby. But they were before Ferguson. Best, Charlton and Law helped. And, ironically, the Munich setback.
  3. I believe Man U have won 20 league titles, 9 not with Ferguson. Forest have won one. Under Clough. None without.
  4. In over 150 years, Forest have been major underachievers, except for the Clough era. Still achieved much more than us, mind!
  5. The first English club to win the European Cup in 1968, under Busby?
  6. I’ve never quite got over visiting WW’s ground. Such a strange location, at the back end of an industrial estate backing on to farm land.
  7. In other news, JM is also expected to be LJ’s assistant at Hibs. That will be quite the commute. Stretching himself a bit thin.
  8. Nobody seems to know exactly how the squad values are arrived at - but the £30M shown for us is less than many on OTIB seem to think we should get for Scott and Semenyo alone!
  9. By starting from a low base and then getting relegated…
  10. It's actually bloody loud - so much so that it's difficult to hold a conversation over the pre match music. I'm deaf in one ear too!
  11. “I have a good relationship with all of them” is the actual quote. So why try to twist it?
  12. Colin Murray is one of those few broadcasters who can move effortlessly from lightweight topics to heavyweight ones, hardly putting a foot wrong.
  13. Being pedantic, not Clark Gable but Sidney Howard (who wrote the screenplay)!
  14. Absolutely. I’m surprised this hasn’t been said more often.
  15. Does anybody know why League One has finished today, out of line with the others?
  16. Judd Trump battering Mark Williams so far in the semi (6-1).
  17. Name names. I can never figure out who’s being referred to!
  18. I see Weston won, so managed to get into the playoffs too.
  19. Indeed - I'm sure they were mid table at Christmas. Pretty much a League Two attendance today. Special occasion, of course!
  20. Pretty happy to be 17th at this point, to be honest.
  21. Congratulations to Taunton Town. Southern League Premier Champions and promoted to Tier Six for the first time in their history.
  22. As soon as I post, Farnborough equalise! Still safe for Taunton unless Hayes score 3.
  23. For those interested, I'm following Taunton's progress (only via Twitter) and they have just taken the lead. Hayes, their only rivals for promotion are currently 2-0 down. Looking good.
