As has been stated on this thread earlier, plenty of verification from different independent journalists, tv networks plus lots of social media about what went on in Paris but if some people have an agenda about Liverpool fans then their prejudice won’t change one iota. Some people are just a sad bunch.
And you are right. Personally it is no secret that I’m a manc. Moved to Scunthorpe aged 4 in 1970 after the closure of Manchester steel, and my dad losing his job on the blast Furness a Earlham. He went on tho work on the Anchor Site then the Pit Arch Plant. Liked to live dangerously my old man. So Man U are my second fav team. I hate the Scousers as much as I hate the Cod Heads.
Far be it for me to contradict a Manc but for Earlham should that not be Irlam?

I had a gangly 17 year old Ray Clemence in mind watching Foster. Not sure if it was his debut (but think it was) … a 7 -1 defeat at Grimsby. An awful night. Any other posters there? If Foster is only half as good as Ray then we have a real find.
On that night (evening kick off if I remember right) there was only one senior player in the team, were the rest being punished for lack of effort? That was Brian Bedford, and he scored.
We did have a good youth team then, but not up to senior level.1 user thanked author for this post.
Never thought I would say this Les but I do miss the Berkley.
So do I, the only place I would consider having a pint or two before a game. Unfortunately it’s down to that pillock Humphrey Smith.

Good commitment and effort, also, after the sending off, players able to act as spoilers, wouldn’t have been able to do that two weeks ago.
Well done 👍1 user thanked author for this post.
Anyone remember the Don Welbourne/Graham Rathbone incident?
Didn’t that result in a ban that was unusual at the time?
The FA had decided, in their wisdom, to clamp down on violent play. They decided to make an example of two fourth division players and give them what was then a record suspension.
No first division players were given anything like that kind of discipline even though they were the main culprits.
The incident was nothing more than handbags.1 user thanked author for this post.
Nobody wants to come.
I seem to remember Mick Buxton using that excuse.
I thought it was maybe because of his lack of popularity.2 users thanked author for this post.
If I had my way I’d have stopped the Saxons, Angles, Danes, Jutes, Normans, Vikings and Romans. That would leave us true Britons (Celts) to run these islands.
Can we get back to footy.1 user thanked author for this post.
Hey, guess what lads?
My NHS app has updated.

Watch your back.
52 years old? Thought he was much older, must’ve had a tough paper round.

And the barest minimum of time added on, great game, and well played ref. (Thought he’d get the final.)
