I can't remember the ins and outs, if memory serves me right we went on a bit of a run over that month, including the first game where Machin took over against Leeds although he only joined on the Friday so my old man took the team pretty much. Didnt we beat Hull away, Lose heavily to West Brom away, Draw with Watford 2-2, beat someone else... Soz I cant remember exactly but I'm sure we Won 3 and drew 1 or 2 and lost 2. All the games included McCord and Smith, who were excellent.
I use the mobile default skin and that too doesnt have the buttons, doesnt even have notifications so if anyone in past has liked or thanked any of my posts thanks, if you disliked it or hit the stfu button then go ballax
Something along those lines, mate. I jut want you to know just how much some of us wrinklies appreciate & respect your Dad and what he did for our club. That he did so under some extremely trying times (like the one we're discussing) emphasises even more our fondness & admiration for him.
Just checked on Soccerbase. West Brom a Lost 7 Nil Newcastle h Drew 1-1 (I remember this game - Currie scored from about 20 yars out into the top corner in front of the Ponty/ Micky Quinn scored or them with the only touch he had) Hull a Won 2-1 - I'm sure either Billy Askew or Andy Payton scored for them and we came back to win 2-1. Ipswich H Lost 1-0. Cant remember this game at all Stoke a Won 1-0 I think Currie scored but again not sure Bournemouth a lostr 2-1 No recollection Watford h Lost 1 nil (thought we drew - Knackered memory althought that might have been the next time after Machin was sacked) Leeds H Won 1 nil - Pretty certain Darren Foreman scored the winner
Its good to know, that people still do mate. He probably should have left when he was 19/20 to play at one of the bigger clubs who were after him but he stayed loyal to BFC. Having said, I might have been a scouse, a manc or a cockney. Heaven forbid.
Yer dad's first game we lost 7-0 at West Brom. That was fun. Young centre half came on in the second half, think it was Dudgeon, but I could be wrong. Booked within a minute, booked again a couple of minutes later and sent off. Don't think we ever saw him again. It was just one those games, they happen. We beat Hull at home, Stoke away, drew with Newcastle and lost a couple of others. Then it all kicked off. The home win over Leeds, beating Leicester away and Ipswich at home in the Cup before the epic 5th round tie with Sheff Utd, replays, postponements, snow, the revenge over thgem when we beat them at their place in the league and finally the two best away victories ever over Leeds and Middlesbrough. And I was shagging a lass called Claire who just never wanted to stop. Reight season.
Sean dunphy if I remember rightly? Think don goodman got 4 that day and looked like bloody pele crossed with messi !!
No, the toilet incident was later, when I was at uni. She didn't take me in to the toilet as such, between the ages of 17 and about 25 I rarely used the gents when I went out, always used the ladies. The gents tended to be dirty, smelly, covered in piss and full of drunk blokes. The women's were clean, no piss, no smells and full of tipsy women who found my presence in them hilarious which made them want to snog me. The one I mentioned before wanted to turn a snog and a fumble in to a shag in one the cubicles, but my girlfriend was out in the club and to be honest I preferred her.
thats rubbish, I removed the button completely for a long while. Some members asked for it back but It wasn't me who put it back on either. So you need to get some facts right. I put the whole system on because I thought we needed it. Lots of forums have likes and dislikes and other buttons some like them some don't , some will use them some wont maybe if it wasn't "MY baby" you wouldn't have a problem with it
I've got nothing against you mate so why would I think that? I have a problem with it for exactly the reasons I set out. Because I don't agree with you on this point doesn't mean I hold anything against you or dislike you. I don't, at all. I haven't got my facts wrong, you've admitted you brought it to the forum. You do dismiss anyone who doesn't like it. You don't listen to us when we say we don't like it. As far as I'm aware it was brought to Gally's attention that Hemsworth was receiving dozens and dozens of STFUs and he conceded as that was the case it was probably best to get rid of it. It then disappeared, I presume after talking it over with you. It wasn't a case of you deciding it wasn't right, like you've made out above. Don't presume I don't know things because I'm not part of site admin as I discussed the issue with Gally at the time.
