No issue with it - for some of the Grimsby players sharing a pitch with Walcott will be a big thing and he's a nice guy so why shouldn't he? A good friend of mine played for Yeovil against Arsenal in the FACup thirty years ago and we still talk about him putting Lee Dixon into the stand... l |

My good friend who is a long-time Luton STH seems to think Jones is coming here and will be completely out of his depth, sadly. Apparently has a big work ethic and won't play anyone that doesn't buy in.
He would have played alongside Alex McCarthy at Yeovil, and possibly played for them against us.
Also has a big tattoo of Jesus. Not the Arsenal one. |

Thread | The Manchester City connection

Maybe a conspiracy theory but it's interesting (to me at least) how much recruitment we've done from Manchester on terms that allow players to return north if they're good enough, almost a supercharged loan structure. Then there's Romeu's transfer to Girona, part of the City Football Group.
Is this all down to Joe Shield's contacts or maybe part of a wider discreet tie-up? It wouldn't surprise me if CFG wanted a relationship with another PL club as part of their feeder network, especially if the ESL comes to fruition. |

Looking through the list of young (first team) players in and the large numbers of young players out on loan 'for development', I wonder how many, if any, will ever return and make the first team? I wonder whether this is part of a process of admitting our youth development in recent years has been below par and this is the club stepping up? |

I see Stevie G and Xavi were discounted for having final flings at other lesser clubs - surely MLT should be discounted for his single appearances for both Eastleigh and Guernsey? |

Has to the Watford one for me - Nick Holmes even scored from halfway in the first leg
Second leg, 2/9/80 - the XI of shame; Katalinic, Waldron, McCartney, Williams, Watson, Nicholl, Hebberd, Channon, George (Moran), Holmes, Baker.... even our goal was an og. Remember this ruining my late summer family holiday when I read the result in the paper the following morning.. [Post edited 28 Jan 2019 13:05]

Beat me to it - the infamous Blackburn game was 5/11/77 - Bailey was never made to feel welcome after that... I even remember my late Father hating him far more than was appropriate! |

17/2/79 W3-0 (Peach, Baker, Boyer) - Virtually the only game played in ice age England on a deeply frozen pitch, so was the featured game on MoTD. Remember the blue pitch markings, orange ball and being bloody frozen despite Mum sending me out in about twenty layers of clothing. Gordon Lee whinged about playing on a frozen surface after the game....
Much more fun than the 1984 semi IMO.. |

Well it certainly won't be Allardyce, his wife won't let him stray too far from home (near Bolton) and they're enjoying being grandparents..... He'd only consider a club in the NW now. Thankfully. |

I had a very interesting conversation yesterday with someone that used to work very closely with Hughes, it didn't make for easy listening... I think he needs congratulating on what he's achieved this season but I really don't see him as the way forward. We need a fresh start and a Premier League stalwart isn't going to bring us that. |

I remember being a very excited/scared 7 year old under the East Stand for the testimonial and that I saw very little, if any, of the game. We did leave before the end for that very reason but very proud to have been part of what was possibly the largest crowd ever at The Dell...
As for May 1st, still celebrated, obviously. |
