Nice to see that the Wigan Walk is still going strong. For once I feel that I got my £10 worth tonight, with the added bonus that the 4G held out thro...

@peasepuddigperth That particular beast comes to visit me from time to time, although thankfully, infrequently of late. I, too, am lucky to have an ...

As always, this Forum is full of erudite opinion and wise words. The consensus still seems to be that we’re about to appoint the wrong man, but I wond...

I reckon it’s time for an @Exmil mid season challenge where we all predict what table position we’ll finish this season. I’d go for 12th, and I’m n...

Let’s hope so.

I’d be delighted to see Sarina Weigman in charge. I’d be quite pleased to see ANYONE in charge.

@ken. I’ve just caught up on your news - my thoughts are with you and I hope the new drug proves effective.

Thanks FD for clearing that up. I’ll tell my grandchildren to marry a member of the Royal family. Fortunately I’ve only got female grandchildren so th...

A perfectly reasonable question to your Mother and one that I’d ask on behalf of my grandchildren.

Good point. I suspect there are a few of us on here who wouldn’t want to be judged by our profile pics…

That’s an impressive list Ken. We’ve driven extensively in France and parts of Northern Spain. We’ve done Portugal a couple of times too and loved Por...

I guess all managers have to have a first job before they can have others afterwards. All the GREAT managers started somewhere, so why not at the Boro...

Crikey, it’s doom and gloom on here again, understandably I guess, given the team’s performances this season. I can’t see anyone who’s enthusiastic...

On the subject of managers bringing in their own team of coaches, I’d just like to gently remind people how successful Brian Clough was when he had Pe...

Surely, they’ve already won a trophy in your lifetime, Ken. I seem to recall a victory on 29th Feb, 2004.

I take your point, FD, but from my experience, a senior director arriving at a new company often brings a few key personnel along with them (subject t...

Forest Green are based near Nailsworth in Gloucestershire and are a very progressive club. They are also a ‘vegan’ club with an emphasis on eco-friend...

As a former business owner, I, too, subscribed to a fairly open view of our plans, but there are limits to how much you can share. If we’d been planni...

@k-p-in-spain Sorry, I didn’t mean to suggest that you meant Viera. I was assuming that he was the manager Plato was alluding to.

I’m assuming we’re talking about Patrick Viera at Crystal Palace, although why he wasn’t just described as French is beyond my understanding.

The thing is, I reckon the Betting Companies will know that information too and would be unlikely to be offering odds of 2-1 if they thought it was de...

@Andy R Agreed, I don’t think 1-3 was ever a proper market price. Maybe our Chancellor stuck some gilts on CW, last Friday. 😉

Here’s the current betting from William Hill. Maybe you should pile on at 2/1.  8F94D1A3-3CC5-4DC6-B080-A7565F354986.png

And I was at school in Guisborough. Happy(ish) days…

“As recently as 1970” - the 70s seem like yesterday to me too - it’s hard to believe 1970 was 52 years ago, so as close to the end of WW1 as it is to ...

It’s weird isn’t it? Half of our supporters seem to think we should ditch CW because he’s useless, whilst the other half think he’s top of the list fo...

@ofb I guess I was alluding to some of what your source is suggesting in my earlier post about what SG wants from the club. Would he be happy with a w...

I wonder what the members of this Forum think is going on at the club. We’re all bemoaning the management and the players, but how do SG and CW really...

Or, “Things can only get better”.

As you’ll see from his earlier posts, I’m sure Ken is quite happy to handle any issues himself. If you feel that I’m not showing respect to him, I’d r...
