Lets not forget about his past record too - the touchline bans etc due to abusing officials. Does a fan who works all week, has paid hundreds of pounds for a season ticket, travels to away games, all of which money is being paid to the wages of the likes of Paul Anderson deserve such abuse for venting their voice after watching such a shoddy performance, like that of Sunday ? This is everything that's wrong with the club for me at the moment, no professionalism !!

Yo Mo, didn't realise that you were a Trotter. It would seem that we have strayed somewhat off topic but will add one thought.

When working down South, travelled up especially to watch the final game at Burnden. Only got Embankment tickets. Stood with Ol' Pa Bongser, Bro & Coz as usual. 4-1 win, McGinlay last two goals. Good do, bad view. Normid plus a floodlight pylon and pi$h running down the terraces from the top due to the lack of any facilities. Still there was a tear in the e'e of OPB. It was the next day before dimwit here understood as, back in London he read a short article in the sports pages of The Grauniad where a Wanderer posted that he had had his lad beside him but not his late dad.

The move from Hilton Park to LSV was just as necessary and beneficial but again dropped a lot of memories under the table.

To Mr Burns (and all his alter ego amigos), Manchester Road was not an END at Burnden but a side stand with paddock and it was not The Pink but The Buff that rolled off the presses in a van outside the ground (though it's hard to make out in the Lowry painting

BTW the Saturday football final in Norwich was called "The Green 'Un". Just thought everyone should know.

Only been to 1 soccer match (one too many for me) but it was at Burnden 1963 vs Burnley. 1-0 for someone. One of most memorable days of my life though cos when I got home it was episode 1 of Dr Who.

Was that a friendly?

I think the club recovered well in the coming years.

Anyway, back to Leigh topics. Sorry people.
