Lingard is a local lad and "one of our own".

(He's from Warrington).

Couldn't play rugby league.

The 1970 Brazil v england game was a classic. A few years ago the BBC showed the game in it's entirety. The standard was fuckin abysmal. So much hoof ball from the full backs and keeper

"Didn't want him anyway"
Italia 90 was a brilliant World Cup

 

[remember arthur mann]

Thought it was James Cooper for a minute !

"If anything he struck the ball too well". Whenever a snap shot goes straight at the keeper or past the post.

After yesterday, "They could have scored 10." Yeah, they always could have scored 10. It's almost as if in football every decent chance doesn't result in a goal (unless it's an average side playing against us, of course).
