Let's get back to WINNING ways again!:alright:

We can start tonight against Hartlepool United.:theband:

The weather doesn't look too good for this evening :niet: but let's all get behind the MANAGEMENT and TEAM! :cheers:

ON STANLEY ON:wave8:
 
Bit of travel advice. If you normally come through Clayton go back through Harwood & Rishton then along Dunkenhalgh Way. The roadworks mean you will probably miss the first half otherwise.
 
Do you think Coley's into Tranny's ?

Am I alone in finding this latest line trying to wind up Dav (a) becoming boring and (b) bordering on the offensive?

Thankfully Dav appears not to be taking the bait on this occasion. I much prefer not having to wade through post after post of personal abuse when I come on here.

I thought after Northampton that this particular hatchet had been buried.

Grump over :)

we have traveled to an away game together and had several hours of conversation and it is only a bit of ribbing and DAV gives plenty and can stand up for himself, so if you find it offensive I suggest you get a life.....(rant over)xxx
 
I wouldn't worry about DAVO, Chimer, he's read worse and has a hide like a rhino. I've only met him once at Oxford so can't say what other things he has in common with a rhino, although he is a big lad!
Maybe after a good performance tonight we all might be able to get back to commenting on the game.:)
 
Going under 1000 takes a bit of the shine off a great result. Was it a rough night weather-wise up north?

No it was a Tuesday never a good home crowd thankfully only 2 more this season, but seriously this must send out alarm bells to the board can,t run a league club on those gates.
 
At £20 its hardly likely to encourage walk ons!

When you consider that there were 107 from Hartlepool and approximately 480 season tickets, that means there were only 360 give or take paying 20 quid or even less if the concessions and kids for a quid was running. :eek:

Pity that the figure was so low, only Blackburn playing at home tonight, but saw none of the Burnley contingent (Dave W. excepted) there. Shame really as the stay aways missed a decent match, marred only by some strange decisions or even non-decisions by the referee. Think Shay McCartan will have been mystified at being taken off after scoring his second goal, but there again, as a club, we probably cannot afford to give match balls away for hat tricks!. Deano and Tom A solid at the back even when the 6ft goodness knows what centre forward from Hartlepool came on, mind you, he can head a ball but shooting, well lets say Wigan Warriors could use him lol. Man of the match, I don't know as they fought as a team and did not sit back on a 2-1 half time lead. Got the killer third goal and still went for the jugular. Only moan I have is James Gray is lazy when coming back to the centre when we have scored. Any other day he could have been booked and was lucky when he had a dig at one of the Pool's defenders after being provoked. 3 points and up to 14th lets hope we have another win on Saturday and the guaranteed 3pts on the 31st October.
:alright:
 
Just back from the game and must say the pitch was in great nick !
I must say they were a good side,pressed us all over the pitch,good in possession and great movement.
We didn't help with poor composure at times but what shone thro was the ability to dig in when not playing well ( typical of Coleys teams)
A few players looked under the weather,but the game was lit up with McCartens first goal,simply top drawer.
At 2-1 coley must take some credit to change the defence around which nullified there threat and we comfortably saw the game out.
Playing average and scoring three is a bonus and I will take the points all day
Look forward to Saturday now !!!!

We had an Aston Villa fan next to us who lives in Leeds,not bad for a walk on.He thoroughly enjoyed the game and said he went to Preston last week and ours was a much better game.
 
We have 600ish season ticket holders and about 250-300 of them didn't turn up tonight.
So in reality we could have had 1200 on and made no extra cash.
