  1. @Fan of Big Tone This was said with Tongue very much firmly placed in Cheek. It just Struck Me as Ironic that after Scotland's Exit from the Euro's , I open up my Email and the first Line says Argentinian B.B.Q.
  2. Amazing Just Amazing. Chris & Alex along with everyone associated with this Deserve all the Plaudits that are coming their way. The Ground Staff can Feel Incredibly Proud of Their Achievement and Hopefully this will be Acknowledged by Notts being Given Important Top Level Matches in the Future.
  3. @Robbie You would Think So Wouldn't You? But it seems that being English is Now A Major Problem These Days. So I will say this (with tongue in cheek) Maybe that's Why England are performing so Badly at the Euro's? It would be Totally Non P.C. To allow the 3 Lions to Win the Tournament. Heaven Forbid.
  4. I Have just Received a Email from Notts County regarding the England vs Slovenia Match which is being shown at the Nest. But as the Notts Fan Zone made a Faux Pas? The First line reads AGENTINIAN BBQ. OOOPS after last nights Scotland vs Hungry Match when the Scots were Denied a Penalty, by an Argentinian Referee. That perhaps Not The Best Line To Start With. Would You Say? The Magpies may Not have many Scottish Followers, But there might be a Few and a Few England Fans may also take Exception, Regarding the History between the Two Nations.
  5. Poor Old Harry Kane the Football Pundits are giving England a Hard Time. They don't know how Tough Tournament Football is. Why Do Professional Footballers Embarrass themselves, with Stupid Remarks Like That? Firstly most of the Pundits have played Tournament Football, so they know what they are Talking About. And after the opening two games in Germany, the England Team Deserve the Criticism for their Lacklustre Performances. And to Be Upset over those Remarks by those Nasty Men, perhaps it would be a Good Idea, to oh I Don't Know Grow A Backbone and learn to live in the Real Word. Not Knowing how you're going to Pay your Next Bill, Not Knowing Where your Next Meal is Coming From, Not Knowing if your Kids are safe. THAT'S TOUGH. And you're Upset because some other Multimillionaire, stated you Didn't Play Very Well. Just S.T.F. Up. These Moaning Minnie's Make My Blood Boil.
  6. Scotland can clearly say We Wuz Robbed. A clear Penalty, and something not shown on the X clip but can be seen on the full B.B.C clip is the smile on the Defender's face after the Penalty appeal was waved away, he Knew He'd Got Away with that one. Still can't believe VAR didn't look at it.
  7. Former Notts County and now Swansea Manager Luke Williams had a Dizzy Spell in Swansea City Centre and Fell Over. Luckily two Swans Fans picked him up and took him into a nearby Nat West where he recovered. While drinking a Cup of Sweet Tea, Mr Williams Asked Where am I? You're in the National Luke Good Grief . What Happened to Leagues 1 & 2 ?
  8. This Chap was sitting at the Bar When his Mate walks in with his New Dog. A Beautiful Coal Black Labrador. My Word George says the Bloke at the Bar. That is a Magnificent Animal. Thankyou Albert says the Dogs Owner. I'll let you in to a Secret. That there Dog is also a Blacksmith. A Blacksmith Don't Rubbish. No it's True. If I kick in the Nuts ,it'll make a Bolt For That Door.
  9. @Robbie I Really Wanted Scotland to Win and Qualify, because I've got some Scottish Blood. It's on a Carving Knife in the Kitchen. NO I'm only Joking. Back in the Mists of Time there is Scottish Blood on my Mum's Side of the Family. On a Serious Note I know what you mean about VAR how was that Not Even Looked At? In the lead up to these Finals Scotland did Put In Some Very Good Performances, And I Honestly thought that this time they had a Good Chance of Getting, Out Of The Group. But looking Back maybe the Writing was on the Wall as they had some iffy Results in the Lead Up to the Euro's. Mind You If Any Fans Know To Enjoy Themselves It's The Scots.
  10. @Robbie I know what you mean about helping out the Trouble and Strife. I was once asked if I was a Considerate Lover. Oh Yes I Always Lift My Feet When She's Hoovering.
  11. Scotland may be Struggling in Germany. But Some Good News. Scotland & Liverpool Legend Is Out Of Hospital Alan Hanson as been discharged from Hospital. He had been taken to hospital Seriously ILL Thankfully he's been Allowed Home to continue his Recovery. All the Best Alan for a Full and Complete Recovery.
  12. I think Alan Carr would of been better off playing American Football He could have been a Tight End Or Even A Wide Receiver.
  13. I Thought They Had Therapists To Help Them Focus @liampie ? They have them for practically Everything else. It just appears that the England Players Don't Seemed Bothered. They're Poorly Coached and Lead. I know I keep going on about Southgate, but the Buck Stops with him, when all is said and done. Then when the Players cross the White Line there is No Leader on the Pitch. Kane is the Captain why ? I will never understand making a Striker the Captain of his Country or Team, his Job is to Score Goals and be in the Oppositions Box Rather than his Own, as stated by other PON Members.. A Good Hard Nosed No Nonsense Defender is what is Required for the Captaincy some one to Inspire, Help, Influence his Team Mates. But most of All Lead Them.
  14. @Robbie A lot of Premier Teams wont Allow Players to be realised to play for their Counties. Alex Ferguson was a Main one for doing this, many was the Time he was asked to Release Players for England Duty, and every time it was a Firm NO!! The Idea of Financial Compensation may have to be adopted as you suggest, the problem arises as I see it, is the England Players abroad. The F.A. would have to pay other Countries Governing Bodies for them to release English players in their teams. And would the F.A wont to do that? Pay for the Release of Jude Bellingham from the Spanish League or Harry Kane from Germany? My Guess would be No because it wouldn't cost the F.A. any compensation if those players were Left out of the England Squad. Regardless of England's need.
  15. Napoleon and his Army marched back through the High Winds and Driving Snow, after the disaster of their Russian Campaign, for three days they had marched when Finally the Emperor Calls HALT The order is sent down the line of Battle wary Soldiers.. Suddenly about a Half Mile back a loan Trooper breaks ranks and goes hurrying along the Ranks of Tired Soldiers. 20 minutes later, running in full kit with his rifle, Sweat pouring down his face and Gasping for Breath, the Trooper looks at his Emperor Yeah What Do You Want? Napoleon looks at him and says I Called HALT. HALT says the Soldier I thought You Called WALT.
  16. @Robbie Sorry Not Following the Euro's as Close as You. Apparently there are things other that Football on the Box. So the Wife Says.
  17. @Robbie This is what I mean an awful lot of Fans are under the I illusion that Managers such as Big Sam and Neil Warnock despite their Massive experience at Club Management level, Can Not Adopt to the Modern Game. Really? The Strange thing is when a Club is in Trouble and face Relegation, it's this type of Manager/Head Coach they turn to and once they achieve Safety, they're usually Let Go. And Fans Moan they're only in it for the Money, regardless of them Saving their Club from Going Down. If they're offered a good wage then they are going to take up the Offer after all if you're Good At Something Never Do It For Free. Look at David Moyes saves West Ham from the drop, gets the Hammers regular top Half Finishes in the Premier League, qualifies for Europe three seasons in succession, Wins West Ham a Trophy for the first time in 43 years and he's Sacked. Why? They don't like the way his Team Play Football. The Mind Boggles. Apologies for going slightly off Topic.
  18. @DangerousSausage Yes but we're Talking Germany France, Spain, Italy and Portugal I don't see any of them taking their Foot off the Pedal as it were. The Big challenge of getting the best out of a Bunch of Players who play for different Clubs and moulding them into a Team. Well lets see Southgate, has had 8 years to get it right and he ain't Done It Yet. And doesn't Every Other International Team Coach have the Same Problem? It would appear that their Coaches Know how to Produce a Team Capable of Winning Big Tournaments, because they Play As A Team. Not As Individuals.
  19. @Robbie It would seem that it does not matter how successful Big Sam as been or how much Experience he's has it seems that people can Not Forget the Scandal which he was involved with, (regardless of being him Acquitted) still hold the view that he shouldn't be granted another chance. If you want to talk about Corruption in Football Look No Further Than Sepp Blatter. Now there is a Criminal getting backhanders from World Football Governing Bodies, Royal Families and other Countries Governments. Anyway I'm wondering off the subject. As you have stated Big Sam will have a coaching staff around him should he take the Welsh job to help him with the running of the Squad. One Thing that Big Sam has that Southgate Doesn't is Man management skills and an incredible way of making Poor Players into Average Players, Average Players into Good Players and Good Players into Star players. He can make Players Gel Turn them into a United Group who believe in themselves and in Each Other. Look how many times he's saved teams from Relegation by giving players that belief. And Southgate? Well as soon as his England Coaching Days are over (please make it after this tournament) what will happen? he'll probably get offered a Couple of Coaching roles somewhere. But I think eventually he'll get a Job at the B.B.C as a Pundit. They seem to Hire Any Old Rubbish.
  20. @CliftonMagpie They Are Professional Sportsman and get Payed Vast Amounts Of Money. They should be able to Play On A Ploughed Field. Weather Wise what about the England Team who played in Mexico in 1970? They had No Food Guru No Team of Specialists to look after their every need. No they just Rolled Their Sleeves Up And Got On With It. If memory serves the Only Thing the England Squad had over in Mexico was a New Type of Shirt, to help regarding their Sweating It was a New Cloth which was termed as Breathable.
  21. @Piethagoram Entrapment by the Gutter Press and was Cleared Of Any Wrong Doings. Regarding leaving Notts didn't Big Sam's wife a lot to do with that, wishing to return to live in the North ? Happy Wife Happy Life.
  22. @Piethagoram You're having a Laugh. Really your Not Serious are you? Big Sam vs Gareth Southgate. A Manager with Sam's record at Club Level against somebody who's Management credentials were managing Middlesbrough, and some success with the England Under 21 side. And didn't Big Sam do rather well at Meadow Lane, or has that Slipped your Memory?
  23. @super_ram One of the most Vivid things I remember about Dave Mackay was that photo of him and Billy Bremner, where Dave's got Bremner by the front of his shirt and is almost lifting him off the Ground in Shear Anger. What had happened Dave wasn't long back after Breaking a Leg and Bremner had Fouled him, and Dave didn't like it which was understandable remembering the Dirty Leeds Side of the 1970's.
  24. How Does Dracula get about ? He travels in a Blood Vessel. It wasn't until I'd Shot the 5th Zombie, that I realized they all were carrying Bags of Sweets. At Halloween, why do Fat Kids always dress up as Skeletons? Why was the Skeleton Sad at the Disco? Because he had No Body To Dance With.
  25. @super_ram That's a Strong Possibility ,the only reason I said John O'Hare was that he scored a late goal vs Leeds to Knock them out of the F.A Cup 3-2, and the Ball came off his Chest, and it was said Old Barrell Chest's scored the winner. Mind You it was an awful Long Time Ago so memories ain't as Sharp as they used to be. I also remember Dave Mackay was once called by a Reporter when he first signed for Derby Old Man River, because he just keeps Rolling Along. Wasn't he due to Retire before Cloughie brought him to the Baseball Ground?
