    Local Derbies

    Do local rivals really want their neighbours in a different league ... really ... after all the jibes have gone cold? Liverpool wouldn't play Everton, Man City wouldn't play Man Utd, Rangers wouldn't play Celtic, Sheff Utd don't play Sheff Wed ... and the big one, we don't play PNE. Reckon it's...

    Stuck with Critchley?

    Are we resigned to Critchley for another season - or is there a slim chance of a close-season managerial change? Really hope Sadler is bold, and gets rid.

    Any reasons why we can't make the play-offs?

    After today's battling performance, 9 games to go, and 27 points to play for - surely we stand a chance of sneaking in with momentum behind us? I think we can do it.

    No White Smoke yet ...

    ... Is there even a review meeting taking place? Doubtless, we're stuck with him for the foreseeable.

    Surely just a bad patch? ............. er No!

    Some people think a run of poor performances is just a bad patch if you're 9th in the league. Does anyone think that? I certainly don't.

    It's Mostly about Defence

    Yes, you've gotta play the piano and attack like madmen, but essentially it's about not conceding. Hollaway - we'll score one more than you. Jose M - we won't concede. Marv's back and steady, Pennington an unsung stalwart, and Hubby a killer. That Casey isn't an automatic recall - and CC (proper...

    The Case for Callum Connolly

    I contend he should be our defensive midfielder - playing alongside Norburn, Morgan, and Weir - diamond formation when in possession. (Back four of Lyons, Casey, Marv/Penny, Hubby). He's a leader, tough in the tackle, hard as nails, decent in the air, reasonable at distribution, and has a good...

    Absolutely desperate for a ...

    Striker or two. Just looked at the squad, and minus Jerry - we have just Shane and Jake Beesley. Surely a massive gap priority that needs filling asap.

    England's Midfield

    Southgate has got to play Trent and John Stones in midfield. The new guard. Absolutely outstanding when they play there at club level. Maybe with Rice - but not sure about him. Loads of other defenders to fill their boots.

    Radio Silence continues ...

    Why can't the club provide a progress update - nothing for days (maybe weeks). When can we expect an announcement? It's 2023 - not 1923.

    Trent Alexander-Arnold's initiative ...

    ... to set up support for lads released at 16 looks excellent. Do we monitor this situation and identify released lads with massive potential - the big Prem academies must be full of talent. Alan Ball came to us after Bolton released him because he was too small.

    Assume the worst, and then ...

    If we stay up great ... and if not - well that's expected given the shit show this season. And let's leave the talent on the bench, and give it a 15 minute blast at the end with 10 men. Whoopppee fuckin do.

    Seasiders' turning on each other ...

    FFS ... debate everything, but stop slagging each other off - we all want to stay up - stick together.

    Amusing football gags and stories

    Saw this on Facebook about Bestie and Rodney Marsh: Rodney and George went into a bar and consumed 2 or 3 bottles of champagne in a very short time. George said to Rodney: ”With what I have got, I shouldn’t have done that.“ Rodney said to George: “Well, what have you got?” George replied...

    National Anthem ... Time for a change

    The Royal Family preside over the entire UK, and yet Wales, Scotland, and NI have their own anthems - so why are England stuck with God save the King? It's a miserable funereal dirge. Why not Jerusalem, Rule Britannia, or Land of Hope & Glory? Or Vindaloo by Fat Les.

    Appleton selected to be NASA astronaut.

    Unless there's genuine 'new' news - can we all just park the MA sacking frenzy please, & wait for the board to act or not. Before the Wigan game it was about 60/40 in favour of giving him more time. I suspect it's about 50/50 now or 60/40 the other way. But come on, the same points are being...

    Glamour Club - it's why we attract players

    BFC might not be big city - but we ARE a glamour club. Not grim like Huddersfield, Blackburn, Barnsley, or Barnstoneworth Utd. We're roller coasters, casinos, ballroom glitz, and sleaze. A bit dodgy ... a little indecent. Seaside kiss me quick, tangerine colours, cool haircuts, sun tans, and...

    Kevin Stewart - fit for the season start?

    Will Kevin Stewart be fit to start the season, and might he eventually fulfill his potential?

    Change the Jerry Yates song ...

    To avoid MA taking against Jerry, how about changing the song line to ... 'going to the Proms with Jerry Yates. Or something similar?
