Mister Ting

My first view of those shenanigans were the Argentinians in 66, then Estudianties at Old Trafford against Man Utd. Burnley's "See Naples and Die" in 1967 was probably as bad as any. http://www.clarets-mad.co.uk/feat/edx8/see_naples_and_die_326903/index.shtml

I've just started reading 'Just Boris' by Sonia Purnell.

I've only followed them from afar and to a slight degree. However, for such a massive club/franchise, they must rank as one of the biggest failures. The last time they won the Stanley Cup, I had yet to go to my first football match of any code. Then again, I wasn't aware of them before the early 70's.

Leafs fan, mainly cos I have a family connection with Toronto, but also Minnesota because of a family name that is the same as their moniker.

I prefer an offside line parrallel to the 18 yard box.

I didn't realise you were from Winnipeg.

I never guessed you were a big fan.?

Thanks endangered Mr White Male Up. You're proof that people outside your narrow circle can run rings round you, literally. Did 'gridiron' cause any signs of nausea?

I actually agree, to some extent about your concerns. You just come across as a snowflake lad. I bet you'd call the Rooney Rule an agenda.

Yes of course, 'you know'....?

It should have been Avon's Seven.

Some things never change.

Thank you. I'm neither a Town or a Fax fan. I was born there, but like many from the upper Calder Valley, my team is Burnley. Although I follow their fortunes, I'm not a Fax fan either.

I know. Imagine Halifax getting 170m, imagine Halifax Nosox getting 10% of that.

I remember Villa averaging around 29,000 in the old third division in 1970-71, when they finished fourth. Halifax Town finishing third, just missed out on promotion. 1 Preston North End 46 22 17 7 63 39 1.615 61 Promoted to the Second Division 2 Fulham 46 24 12 10 68 41 1.659 60 3 Halifax Town 46 22 12 12 74 55 1.345 56 4 Aston Villa 46 19 15 12 54 46 1.174 53

I think Freesports show some Serie A.

Cheese and Ham derby?

WBA spoilt my 10th birthday party, so I hope Villa win.

I'm not much into watching football these days, that's why I'm a Burnley fan.

It was Besiktas. They lost two games.

Let me guess: Was it Besiktas or Fenerbahce who won in 1986?

One of the last of the great stars.

Both teams were incredible. Has there ever been an English top flight runner-up who lost only one game before?

I'm glad I bailed out when I saw Sean Bean in the first episode.
