Interesting goings-ons in the football league.

£3k a week with bonuses i’ve been told, more than a lot of championship players.

Their money comes from the US blokes with white faces and perfect human rights records though so it’s all fine and above board of course.

why does a white face matter?

Will be very interesting to see how Burnley and Middlesbrough fare when they go up

I’m assuming MFC will, whether they secure automatic or go to the playoffs

Middlesborough are amazing. Come from nowhere to play off position at least, managed by a rag.

The perception is that American owners, or British for that matter are fine. Whereas Arab/Middle East owners; well, they're horrible, smelly, human rights abusing Johnny Foreigner types, innit?

Just watched Barnsley beat Wednesday 4-2.
Enjoyable game. Barnsley 2 up early on and Wednesday getting back to 2-2.
Barnsley with an 80th and 96th min killer goals. Pure end to end stuff

Just hope the Barnsley fans who packed into the ground, turn up for their next game

First time we have lost in 24 league games let the bed wetting commence

I didn't realise Barnsley are 4th when I posted above.
You have the games in hand so have to make them count.

At least we can count on your support in the FA Cup semi final ;)

The league is brutal, 10 games left and I reckon you would need 95/96 to guarantee automatics

Our injury list concerns me if Windass & Byers are out for the next few games.

And of course the semi will be cheering (every goal)

Is Windass any relation to Dean?

Alty FA trophy semi final against Halifax on 1/04/23.

Winners of the Trophy in 78 and 86.

Thinking on, I went to both of those finals, at Wembley.

Knowing one of the lads trying to get the Original Bury playing at Gigg Lane (and he gets abuse from the other supporters)

They are always doing something to make sure the ground/pitch etc is in best condition

Thats great to hear, BUT, until this split can be mended or worked round the prospect of a team playing competitive football at Gigg Lane is still a dream. Such a pity that the Football League allowed Steve Dale to be involved without (apparently) carrying out full and comprehensive background and fitness checks.
