    Carlisle- Anyone changed their minds?

    One way or another. Maybe now there is something to play for rather than a dead rubber has tempted some. Possibly a few who have had enough after 2 fortunate 1-0 wins. I assume we will take a good following on Saturday. Interesting to see if anyone has changed their minds.

    Panaroma tonight- Wyre Country Park

    Many are kicking up as they were promised full residency when they purchased a chalet. Turned out not true. I was always of the opinion that any Caravan/ Chalet were only residential for around 10 months of year. Normally closed from early January to early March.

    Valencia v Real Madrid last night.

    Sat in a bar in Fuengirola last night watching the game. It was packed with both locals and tourists. What an explosive last few minutes that was. Valencia 2-0 up then Real came back strong and equalised with a controversial goal which I thought was offside. Then in 93rd minute Valentia awarded...

    England v Austria ( Women friendly) FFS!

    Switched over to ITV to watch football legend Tommy Orpington score with Tracy Barlow to find out a non event is live on ITV. A friendly against Austria with hardly anyone there! England 1-0 up. Scraping the barrel showing this on prime time. Back to Netflix and prime for me.

    Play Off positions- Stevenage and Oxford.

    It will require a really good run to contend with automatic promotion therefore at this time I am looking at the Play Offs. Are Stevenage going to continue as serious contenders. Then there is Oxford who seem to be going through a bad run. Below us we have the likes of Lincoln and even...

    Beatles new record- Thoughts!

    I know it is another topic however such an iconic moment to hear the voice of John Lennon. Many Beatles songs have been sung on the terraces and Hey Jude is still as popular. ”We all live in a tangerine Kop”

    O/T Northern rail 50p tickets.

    Northern rail with tickets from 50p. Handy for folk travelling up to games in September/ October. Will be a bargain for the Yorkshire Seasiders and maybe a cheap option for Barnsley away. Just bought Liverpool to Blackpool £2 return for Reading game.

    Your autograph collection

    First, is there anyone brave enough to admit they have/had Owen or Karls autograph! I remember seeing the queues around Owen eager for his autograph. I have many Pool autographs from 53 including Matthews, Morty and Perry. Then the 60’s collection from the days of Armfield and Ball etc. A...

    England v North Macedonia thread.

    Probably last live game I will watch for a few weeks now. Not as easy as the Malta game but expect a comfortable 2-0 win. Famously North Macedonia knocked Italy out of the World Cup plays offs last year or so. Its possible to select a near combined City/ United team tonight at Old Trafford.

    Memories of “Crunch”End of season games BFC.

    Supported Pool since early 60’s and witnessed many “crunch“ games. No living fan on here has seen us automatically promoted more than twice and one of them was confirmed when we were not playing! We have had many relegation deciders which have seen either joy or tears. Blown promotion a couple...
