Have a great day tomorrow Robin, should be a cracker with the 2 form teams going head to head.
Really looking forward to watching it to see how it turns out.
If Rovers run over the top of the Eagles with how they have been playing lately it really will put a marker down.
If Eagles can stay with you it will show that there is still a chance for the rest of us.
I wish I was going with the Fax.

Once again enjoy every minute of it mate i'll be looking out for your ginger mop on the telly

Amongst a thread of idiotic posts in a forum largely filled with idiotic posts, this stands out as a shining example of why some people should not be allowed crayons.

We lost Sam smeaton Thursday night thru injury which is a worry. I get far too wind up for my own good.
I'm in kirkaldy for Raith v Partick thistle this aft then driving to wire tomorrow.
Ryder cup my fat ginger botty. thistle n fev. top weekend of sport

Only guessing about the Sam issue but what about this as a scenario.

Fax need a number 9.

KH has connections with Salford and enquires about Goddard.

Salford say maybe but we would like to have Barlow involved in the deal something which had not even been thought about at Fax.

One thing leads to another a tempting offer comes to the table and things start to happen and the Sam to Salford switch seems to look likely.(At least in the rumour mill world.)

A short time later the people involved start to give this a bit more thought and the implications become clearer and the pendulum begins to swing in the other direction.

Sam wants to stay............................. deal cools...................................Sam stays.

None of it had anything to do with money problems or buckets at all.

Aye saw it on the Fev forum last night and as you lads have said gutted for Sam Smeaton he has been one of the form centres this year again and a joy to watch.
Some kind of training accident with a knee dislocation I think was mentioned, not good, hope he gets back from it.

Chris you really can be a tool sometimes!! It was just a passing comment on an initial thought I had and shared nothing more. No need to be personal is there?? How was the comment childish...... Please explain.

People in glass houses really shouldn't throw bricks.

Aye I suppose your right.....





Now where are my felt tips???.......

I did think Officeboy's comment was a bit offensive and OTT but I also thought your comment was a little bit paranoid. Surely any new ideas to raise money for the club are to be welcomed and applauded, I fail to see how it even suggests financial desperation. Apparently over 100 people have already paid their £25 and the promotion still has 2 weeks to run.

I believe that the first time this sort of thing was done was on Honda's F1 car a few years ago. I believe that was quite successful but they did have a bit more space to fill.

I actually never said it did other than my flippant comment yesterday where I pointed out merely that the thought had crossed my mind!!

Having been involved with the club I know how it feeds hand to mouth and the close season is especially tough!!

I mean we haven't got into financial strife before / recently now have we??

I'm sure we aren't but as I POSTED it was merely a passing thought I shared after seeing this thread and I didn't get the reasoning behind selling Sam to Salford who aren't exactly dripping in gold coins themselves!! Now if it was moneybags Wire, different story!!

Still Murgy getting obnoxious is nothing new.

Any reasonable means to raise cash would be a good thing and wearing shirts with actual players names on them would not be every adults cup of tea.

Just me again but I don't care how good they are or who they are at my age having BARLOW or FIELDHOUSE on my back would not be my first wish, now if I was a young lad that would be different.

Answer to the problem and maybe how to generate some interest in more shirt sales and have a bit of fun as well is to have your own name or some version of your own name or club or mixture of both on your shirt now that might be different.

Could it be that simple and yet very effective.

Incidentally I have declined the offer because I don't want To**er to be seen in public.

an you think gingdongs lost the plot!......you'll be telling me barnsley play like brazil next...........

Nuts
