No. Even though you may think this is a midweek round, for TV purposes, it's a weekend round, so usual TV picks apply.

Are you sure you should have posted that link?? There's sensible football discussion going on there... No drama queens hysterical fannies or such like too.. Might have to join and Dave loses a customer!! ;)

Can I claim the "Spot the deliberate mistake" prize. Fat kids!!!

File it under Burnley 2005. Turned out alright in the end...

It can't have been "Indescribably bad" if you then write several hundred words describing how bad it was!!!

Tell me ma, me ma. To wipe away all my tears. No trophies for THIRTY years!!! Tell me ma, me ma !!!

Well, I'm just outside Leeds, and have genuinely got more snow than I've seen in 20 years!! It's a foot deep here, so if it's on/off, I'd like to know one way or another, cos if it is on, I could do with setting off now.

It's the pre-season game isn't it??

Booooomtown Rats??

As far as I can remember, the house is actually owned by the club. They bought it directly from Brendan, probably about 6-7 years ago. Think of it like a Vicarage...

Stand opens in part, from Man U game, subject to Test Event completion. And sale dates announced. Just announced. https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/anfield-road-stand-update-upper-tier-opening-plans-and-members-sale-details

Carillion was the main contractor on the main stand, but as they went bust, we couldn't have used them again even if we wanted to.

I'm told that the weather has not helped in recent weeks and that the whole project is as far behind schedule as it was earlier this year. There isn't a cat in hells chance that we will be playing in it in under a month. As said, it needs to pass safety checks and get a certificate and you can't do that on what is very much a building site rather than a safe, completed stand. It should, and always should have been a September opening, but for when in September is still very much open to question. I expect the Villa game to be gone too, the first European game would have to be away but with luck, a lot of work and a nicer August, it would be ready for West Ham on the 24th. Failing that, then it's the Blues in October and we'd have to play a second European game away and would have to forfeit any home draw in the League Cup.

Greetings from Villa Park. Filling up gently. The fact the place isn't that big by modern stadium standards, might be to the gigs benefit. The stage isnt dwarfed by the surroundings, traffic was light, no delays and got parked easily. Ten minutes walk and straight in. Once again, many thanks to the villain who sorted us out with presale tickets.

It's about 77k. It was over 80k in 2005, but has had a bit of work done in the intervening years. The club allocations in 2005 were 25k each, so I'd expect something similar. However, don't forget that tickets were available in 2005 during the couple of weeks before the game too and it never went to a ballot either, so while we may laugh, and I'm no apologist for MCFC, It's happened before...
