Rashford didn’t have a comfortable life in a middle class family though.

I reckon most kids in the 60s and 70s
on council housing estates throughout Manchester had a similar or worse up bringing to rashers.

Leeds manager bemoaning the fact that the game is fast developing the 'one minute' goal kick! We've had that phenomenon at The Etihad for season after season. Every goalie that turns up for the opposition goes through a very specific process - placing ball a particular way AFTER he has deliberately misplaced it with the writing askew, clearing the caked on mud reminiscent of any Manchester playing field from October to April from his boots, checking whether he trusts his full backs to play out, deciding it's too dodgy and waves them up the field to occupy four square yards of turf and hope they get a throw-in off the back of Kyles head, all before toe-ending the ball into touch. Cue the minute goal kick.

I think ten seconds is ample for a keeper to return the ball to play. Failure to do so would result in a corner for the opposition. That's stop the fuckin' timewasting. Same with throw-ins.

I started listening to the Guardian Football podcast this week, as everyone's always banging on about it. Think I lasted around three episodes. God they fucking hate us, don't they?

No, you're wrong, Eddy always gets penalised for his first offence.

He lost all credibility from me when he said he didn't read a book until he was 17 which is absolute bullshit

That's why his nose is so big.

No problem. We all have false memories about something or other.
You must have a history thingy, Click on "home" instead of blue Moon Forum when you switch on

@Big Swifty bloody hell every day is a school day. Thanks to your good self, not only have I found the history section but learnt that we did not lose to Bury in the next round as I have always believed, it was Bolton.
Bury was the following year.
