You're right, it makes little difference to the validity of your point.
36 in March! Did you do the curry in farnworth and enjoy hospitality yesterday?
Did the hospitality but I'm still recovering from 36 hours of vomiting and crapping, I got that bug that everyone is catching, came on Boxing Day night, so wasn't up to drinking yesterday. The hospitality was fun and it was nice to see the 'inner sanctum' as it were, but I'd never pay 125+VAT for it in a million years. I got two tickets as a freebie from a mate.
The food was good, the people were really nice (didn't know John Thomas was a match day host) and it was nice to sit in the prawn sandwich bit on the half way line in the West Lower.
The pre-match 'entertainment' consisted of Frank Worthington rambling on a microphone for about 5 minutes, a quiz sheet and a 'guess the attendance' competition, which some kid won by cheating on Twitter.
Kevin Davies came in about 45 minutes after the final whistle to recieve his MOTM award and spoke for a few minutes about how we've been here before, picking up a good result and getting optimistic, but being really focused on Leeds on New Years' Day.
The free gift was a USB pen drive with a BWFC logo on it.
Hope your over the bug. Both my kids got it Christmas Day followed by the misses on Boxing Day. So the holiday season has been pretty crap. Literally!
Done the hospitality thing before myself. Never been overly impressed. As you said its not worth the amount they charge.
In all honesty I've yet to see TM have a bad game, but I may have been lucky with the games I've seen this season. I get this feeling from the people around me and on here that a lot of people want many of the OC signings out of the club over the others. How Ream and Alonso can get flack before Knight and Rickets let alone Mears is beyond me and Ricketts has been one of the worst this season, but there seems to be this hangover that now OC is gone that any of the OC signings must be hounded out the club as well! Prately was my mom but he still received the most abuse of any player from the people around me and I thought SKD was rubbish again. It's an on going argument that I'm torn between: SKD is the club talisman. We want all players to be like him, but IMO he is holding us back.
I agree with you HH that Mears is doing much better this season but can't understand why Knight receives less flack - is it down to who signed them? It does feel on here that the OC signings are more at fault than the others.
JAH - spot on, as is HH.
It is called pack mentality (although I prefer to call them sheep).
Better to have a strong minority opinion than hide behind others who you think are shouting the loudest.
I disagree HH. Knight receives the most flak on here of any defender and its deserved. I said I don't think any of our defenders have played well.
There also seems to be a clear and unnecessary anti SkD trend on here from some posters. Totally unnecessary and the one indicator with SKD was that BSA had faith in him throughout his time at BWFC even when ANelka came in he made room for him. That's how good he was. Most people accept that his better days are behind him but its sad that no other striker at the club is good enough to replace him. That's not his fault but one or two seem to suggest that.
As for OC signings none have lived up to any billing apart from Holden. Not that they are useless but all under performed.
Mills not confident he is good enough due to our defensive record this season
Mears poor most of the time
Alonso only ever gets a game when there is no one else
Petrov totally hit and miss.
Ream played well once this season otherwise been awful
Pratley does not look like a footballer if the crowd who go every week boo then its for a reason
Ngog for 4.5m his return has been awful. Never takes his chances. Look at the Sheffield Weds game.
Andrews not the player people expected.
Eagles all the talent in the world and should be the best player in this league but inconsistent. Like the girl with the curl.
Sordell a massive mistake to date.
Wylde at Bury from Rangers?????
They have not been good. Knight is also a coyle signing as he gave him two years more.

Even when you know your wrong
I don't join sheep. I wanted OC out and was virtually on my own bar one or two others. It's not my fault that people eventually saw the light. I was also first on here to disagree with HH. As usual your wrong.
CEF, I like this notion that if you post a load of complete garbage, and several people disagree with you, it's a 'pack mentality' and they are 'sheep', it's very romantic and though provoking, but I think you're stirring the pot a bit.
HH thinks Tyrone Mears has played well this season but Kevin Davies "is a horrendous player", there's nothing courageous about talking out of your backside. If you post strong opinions, you're likely to get strong rebuttals.

Jesus, not this again. For pity's sake.
Petrov - your understanding of English is truly shocking. An opinion can be neither right nor wrong. At some point an opinion is proved to be right or wrong. It is called hindsight. Once we were relegated, it became fact and was no longer an opinion. If I had continued to say we weren't relegated, then I would have been wrong.
I agree with HH and JAH's opinions. You disagree. None of us are right and none of us are wrong.
And you are the biggest sheep of all on here!!!!!
LH, CEF can't help beginning the digs. My problem is I need to learn not to respond!

Of course I was stirring LH, and got exactly the response from exactly the person I intended to. So bloody easy

In my opinion, we'll win every game between now and the end of the season, that includes FA Cup games.

But he was right about relegation, so he has the trump card in every discussion, ever. He'll be sat at your graveside one day going on about it.
CEF we have been through this for the last 12 months. It is a fact that SKD is not a truly horrendous player. That's not opinion. An England call up and most of your career in the top flight proves that. Wrong again
Debating with you is simply hardwork because all you do is stir trouble by going with things that wind people up for that reason. On here its called WUMMing but I am not sure you know your doing it.
If you think I am a sheep then that's you OPINION!!!
Sad isn't it. To be glad we were relegated. Dear me!!!!
Well as long as your not going to be as negative as you were last season CEF we will be ok!!!
Only with you Petrov, because I despise everything you stand for on here.
I will continue forever. And I will point out your cowardly flan-flinging every time you do it.
p.s. HH's OP was about Mears. that is the opinion I am agreeing with. SKD has not been mentioned by me on this thread. Please try and keep up Trig!!!!
My prediction for this season is 4th. Maybe you can remember that far back!!! Still sticking with that.
