Does Parky get an assist for that first goal?

Oh and can someone get Finners a basebal cap please!!!

Only £7.99 in the club shop and as a member he's entitled to 10% discount.

I wish he'd get rid of those gloves that Crossie left behind! :twisted:

Thanks bozzer,

Top interview by Fazel Koriya, just the right things to be saying at the moment, good stuff

Only as good as the questions :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well done Dave; you've only been doing the job 2 years and you finally managed to conduct a good interview! ;)

Some people can just slip straight into a roll, acting and LOOKING the part from day one, not sure why but the new Club Sec springs to mind, immaculately turned out and as yet not carried out a public castigation of a match official. ;)

Thanks to those that helped my Gramp after his fall on Saturday near the 'tunnel' around half-time.

Random question: Anyone know why both benches were wearing hi-vis jackets on Saturday? Is it a UCL sponsorship deal or something?

I think it was done because too many unauthorised people were sitting on the bench in UCL matches. Only authorised personnel are now allowed and should wear a yellow bib but this obviously creates problems when we play away in our yellow kit!

It's another half baked idea from the UCL, like wearing a hi vis jacket with respect on it will change the way anyone wearing it will think or talk to the officials or Others. Though it does solve the massive problem of 9 people in the technical area instead of the 8 allowed :roll: best way to deal with it is next away game when we are in yellow we all stand on opposite side to the Lino wearing hi vis jackets, be like looking for a buttercup in a field of dandelions. Presume UCL will see the light and issue all Clubs with new grey jackets next, then those wearing them will become invisible like the Mancs did all those years ago. Other issue not considered by those who instigated this idea, what about those sponsors who pay good much needed money to Clubs for a name on jackets & track suits which is now covered.

It's an initiative from the UCL that someone thought of when watching the subs warm up in FIFA bibs at the World Cup. The idea behind it is that looking like a dodgy builder will stop you attacking like a knob head on the sideline and not berate the officials and their own players.

Unfortunately they forgot to tell Pinky & Perky at PNS.

Of course Peaksy and Lamby comply with the rules and I can recommend them if you want your drive tarmaced, just don't ask where the tarmac came from

Just for the record, the match report awards the Boston Town goal to George Zevaner, but both full-time and the Boston Town match report suggest it was actually sub Lee Wattam.

In fact that reminds me, if anyone is able to do some match reports it would be most helpful we have a rota of a few people so you'd only have to do a few if you can spare the time.
