just seen a video showing Town now have pop up sprinklers on the pitch and more round the edges. Not sure about this we have improved facilities at the training ground, those sports vest that track everything and now better pitch facilities at BP. All feels a bit 21st century this.

Think we've had the GPS sports vests for several years to be fair.

Next year, given they’ve let 18 players go and only brought in 3. With 4/5 weeks to go? And a transfer embargo…

I'm a litle shocked Fenty never installed it to be honest, think of the water bill he could of saved watering the pitch and the players having a shower at the same time


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

It won't happen. They'll get relegate and we'll be promoted.

I think I'm right in saying that the new system is fed from a bore hole, so after initial costs, the water bill is greatly reduced.

Shame he didn't install colonic irrigation

Sounds like us last season, minus the transfer embargo.

As opposed to the old system that relied on an a*sehole.

He did, he had the pumbing in the toilets behind the Main Stand changed to irritate the pitch

John thought that as there was enough sh1t on the pitch every other week it shouldn’t need anything else to blossom!!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
