Apologies if this has already got a mention.
Listenning to the pre-match banter on Radio Lancs on the way to the match between Thomo and Brett.
Brett said to Thomo do you remember when we played Newcastle in the PL and they wouldnt let us check into the hotel because BFC hadnt paid the bill from the previous season.
On the same theme I was at the Peterborough Marriott in the promotion season when the team bus arrived. The BFC credit card bounced and Thomo had to use his own card before the players could check in. Factamundo.
We've come a long way but people still moan because we play 3-5-2 and we are 1 point shy of where we were after the same number of games in Critch's promotion season.

Heard that. Easy to forget just what a cockamamy show it was under Clownshoes and Catweazle. Still doesn't excuse 10 sideways passes before Hubby lumps it to Dembele's head though 🤣

People actually say we're no better off than under the Oystons.

To be fair, people moan because this is an absolutely shit league with really poor teams above us. We could and absolutely should be doing better.

If there was ever a chance to get automatic promotion, it was this one and we've blown it with stubborn and poor away tactics.

I really don't think it's unreasonable with our budget and playing squad to say we're 8-10 points shy of where we should be based on our salary and quality in our squad.
 
There was the refusal to pay £15.50 plus VAT per person for pasta to be delivered to the dressing room at Chelsea. Matt Williams got M&S lasagnes instead at a couple of quid a head.

We should have run away with the league this season.
 
Don't forget the club refusing to pay for the players prematch meal at Fulham.
Lee Clark told me that when they played Fulham away that club secretary they got in to replace Matt Williams booked a hotel in North London that google maps said was half an hour away, and Clark had to tell him that might be the case for a Wednesday afternoon but on a Saturday it would take three times that. They were on the coach and Tony McMahon had to jump off and run to the ground ahead of them just to get the teamsheet in on time.

Its a shit poor league and we are underperfoming playing dull boring football, just because things aren't as shite as they used to be doesn't mean they still aren't shite

We are 8th and will probably end up 8th

Brett came for a few beers in the Armfield club after he had finished at the ground, what a top bloke, posed for photos with the kids and adults alike and signed his autograph for anyone who asked 👍🏼
 
We’ve now moved on to players announcing they’re leaving via the medium of YouTube influencer. We’re absolutely insane as a club and always will be. We’ll never be the slick, professional outfit, it’s just not in our nature. Hopefully we just stick to the comedic antics under SS (and no reason to think we won’t)!

May have this wrong but didn’t Gary Bowyer have issues about him having to pay hotel bills for the team?
