I used to work as a Customer Service rep (ego massaging really) back in the late 80's and 90's and one of my "clients" was a guy in Malton called John Dyson, his brother was Terry Dyson who played in the 61 double winning team, I was only two at the time so don't remember the team but as you say...

You don't need a loaded firestick, mines on a direct app on the TV, never buffers with my mega fast Virgin Broadband and I get all the City away games including those not on Sky, Amazon or TNT, £26 a month. I, like you, had resisted the temptation to cancel Sky until this summer when SSN...

Good research, cheers.

Newcastle are media darlings compared to us, we're Jimmy Saville, they're just Ryan Giggs.

Yep, before Keegan went there I seem to remember they had a home league game against Lincoln (I think) where the attendance was less than 10k.

Virtually what I posted (your first 2 sentences). He was the Consultant for AD football or one of it's teams, it was obviously done to prevent him taking a Manager's job elsewhere, he knew he was coming to City at some stage.

Announced in the budget that £11b has been put aside for compensation for the infected blood and Post Office issues, think the figure for the latter is £1.8b.

This is only from memory but wasn't Bobby Manc placed on a consultation contract for Abu Dhabi prior to joining us? I thought he'd been sacked by Inter and City were going to appoint him the following summer to replace Mark Hughes, he was given the consultation work to stop him joining...

My mate Phil's dad would have had the Corporation at Guide Bridge around that time pal, you wouldn't have known but you probably saw Phil at Ashton Golf Club just after Covid when we played on a Sunday afternoon when you had your regular 4 ball.

Used to be called The Robin Hood which was the last pub my mate's (Phil) Dad was Landlord of back in the early 80's. It was Phil's funeral yesterday, he was 70, we gave him a good send off, he was a very gregarious, successful man, people flew from South Africa, Trinidad (where he lived for a...

Many years ago a friend of mine had a heart attack, once in hospital the Doctors diagnosed he had Stage 4 lung cancer as well (he was a smoker). So, a few weeks later he's back in hospital for his end of life care, another friend who he used to share a house with went to visit him, he was on...

It's not easy to find, on the main road but this photo may help!

it was quite simple to do, any Senior's living in Band D and above Council Tax bands and those in the 40% income tax band should be excluded from the WFP. As always it wouldn't be perfect but it would have helped a lot. My mate who owns a business installing forecourts for Tesco (Indigo...

When Roy Oldham was the gaffer at the council, even though he was not universally liked he ran the Council as a business, my mate used to Chauffeur him around and really rated him as a Businessman even though he headed the Labour contingent. Since he died the muppets on the Council don't have a...

It is mate, spending a fortune just now on the Market but it'll still be full of thieving scrotes and undesirables.

I've lived in Ashton all my life but I'm ashamed of the state of what was a thriving town had become, it's now a cess pit of inhumanity. I live on the border of Mossley in a decent area but after my visit to the town centre last week I'll not be going again, the state of the people that...
