    This will probably generate next to no interest whatsoever but I enjoy writing about football and thought what better way than to start in the new year. I've only wrote one thing at the moment as I haven't had much time so if you fancy having a read then it's here and YOU REDS.

    If not, then YOU REDS anyway!!!

    Disagree with the 'by history we are struggling championship side' -think historically we've been a comfortable championship side

    Enjoyed reading that, also notice you're fairly new to posting on the forum. Guessing you just read it up until recently and now started to share your views.

    You sure can, can't argue with constructive feedback. Thanks for the read as well, appreciated.

    Thanks to you as well CrossTyke, not the best I know but never done it before.

    Yeah that's arguable definitely. I think a more accurate way to me in hindsight would be middle to lower table Championship side.

    Sorry for the pedantry but I earn a part time living as a writer so I couldn't help myself!

    No apologies needed, like I said feedback is always welcome especially from someone who earns a part time living from it.

    Thank you for the kind words Whitey. I think I will keep doing them, I've read your blog too and listen to your podcasts. You Reds indeed.

    I hope you do keep at it. More BFC stuff out there, the better.

    If ever you need any help/advice you know where I am.

    Good read Lewis but I do agree with Liverpool Red that for long periods of our history, certainly from the early '80s we were a comfortable second tier side.

    Can I just point out that you failed to put a full stop (or even a question mark) at the end of that sentence?

    The smiley face is a substitute sentence ender!

    When writing "properly" I use the correct pronunciation.

    Oh good grief I wish I hadn't started this! Yes, punctuation is the word. Serves me right for editing an article for submission to my publisher while at the same time messing about on here.
