My point Pooch is I did go to Wikipedia and it DID NOT MENTION Chesterfield, probably because it had been amended by the time I read your signpost ......... so I then had no idea what you were babbling about.

Just tell us what you want to tell us, or copy and paste it ffs!

Ok keep your hair on Dev,if youve got any !.
If you had gone on within a week you would have seen it but you were too slow to connect with dial up down there .
Whats happened to the two signings promised last week ? ,I hate it when we don't sign anyone for a week .

They're probably on Wikipedia .........

I have quite a lot of hair in fact - far too much for a distinguished man of my age - so I tend to look like something weeded out during flower power, or a lecturer in the boring bits even Mary Beard couldn't be bothered with ......... (My legs still look like they could play football, though my midriff is doing a decent impression of Tyson Fury.)

Just admit you copied the bollox on Bobs without even checking it out ......... there's no shame in it. Well not much.

I first saw it on twitter actually .I hate looking at Bobs board because it contains 90% rubbish but i cant help peeking now and again just in case there is a snippet of useful information amongst the shit .At least you get quality on here ,mainly from me .

"quality on here ,mainly from me"

Must get boring for you, talking down to us after your Nostradamus-like prediction that Gary Caldwell would become the greatest football manager in the universe .........

Twitter? Lenny Carter and Micky Savile would be turning in their graves that one of their lads ended up on something called Twitter.

I'm on the twittersphere Dev, it's mainly rumours when it comes to football.

Yeah I'm sure Lenny and Mick would be turning in their graves if they were dead !.
Seriously though social media is such an evil yet frivolous thing isn't it ? .For thousands of years we had to rely on gossip and hearsay and horse and carriage carrying sealed messages to pass on information ,now you have David Beckham 'trending' with millions of tweets because someone made an off the cuff remark about him supposedly having an affair with his daughters teacher.Big Fuckin Deal ! .I seriously think if there was a nuclear bomb dropped on the USA it would not attract as many tweets .

Jesus, this board is getting as bad as Bobs.
I thought Twitter was a noise a bird made. I don't do social media other than this one and the odd pop on the other.
Blue, your predictions are about as accurate as the met office and you do post some twaddle, don't let your head get too big you need to get it through the turnstiles in a couple of weeks.

Well Im not predicting anything this season after the last two disasters youll be pleased to know.However I will remain optimistic and would like to think we will be challenging with us being one of the bigger fish.
Who knows Dancing maybe this season will lift you out of the doldrums .

Either they are funny turnstiles or Blue is extraordinarily short IF his head is going to get stuck in them. I don't think at that height he'd have got in Mick and Lenny's team.

I'm glad Micky and Lenny might be alive. I assumed Holmewood, lifestyle and attitude would have killed both before their time.

Bob's has been saying MA is on holiday so there won't be any signings till he's home. Surely the unloading process is as important as new signings anyway? I kinda wish Ricky G would just sit his time out and impress everyone in pre-season. For two seasons we've lacked pace and power and he's got (or used to have) a bit of both. How likely is it we'll sign someone as young and better? But then we'd probably never give him a START to prove himself.

Shaw Lane's demise could be good news for us. It has thrown lower reaches of the pyramid into chaos ...... so whatever the result of our FA charge they probably won't want to relegate us and add to the issues ..........

I've no objection to rumours if I'm told they're rumours. I've no objection to things being wrong in the end. I just object to being sent mysteriously to look for something that turns out not even to be there ........... when I could have stayed where I was.
