Ok Boss

Im not biting - but I read all this rubbish on here and am as passionate as any of you men and object to being insulted because Im a woman _ Kath Hetherington also comes in for stick in my view because she is a woman - now I am not the greatest fan of Bosses but that is what she is and I dont see the Club going to the dogs at the moment.
By the way I hate the lass who is on the Mike on the pitch - can you sort that out

OK Kosh

Having known both Kaths for more years that I care to acknowledge, I wouldn't back you with bad money, should it ever come to a showdown with either of them

Thank you Dave - I miss you

I just love this idea that having managed not to die young makes you some kind of super fan!

Dont you need to own a sock too?

In my opinion, being a supporter who has attended many matches over many years does not automatically mean that that supporter is any more knowledgeable about RL or, indeed FC, than any other fan. What it probably does mean is that they have seen lows a lot lower than the current one, have seen poorer players and players with less commitment, poorer coaches, poorer facilities but they are still fan(atic)s of the black & whites who still turn up week-in-week-out to watch their beloved team. I think that alone gives them the right to some respect that those who have been attending for fewer years - but continually moan about how bad their lot is - have not yet earned.

Of course, if they have been going for hundreds of years and are still moaning then those people who sit near them ought to have the right to shoot them - for their own sake as well as everyone else's.

I've been watching FC over 20 years and I have not seen poorer or less comitted players than we have now, possibly the odd individual, but not the number we have currently.

I'm afraid you haven't been going long enough to count

I thought there was an interesting banner at the Beckham incident the other day

"Here Before
Here After
Here Despite"

One for an away game at some point???

Good point well made. I'll include a further 17 years on the back of that too.
