Just hope you're right and its nothing more than a rumour. Especially looking forward to this one as my wife is a Scouser and will be screaming away in another room. I have a feeling we'll do better than most on the Prediction thread are suggesting. Could be a close one. If Sturridge is out they'll have lost a big threat although the obnoxious Suarez can create something from nothing

No disrespect, but does your wife have an annoying scouse accent, or a tolerable one? Some of their accents just really grate on me.

Coming the week after the Brentford game where a penalty was awarded to one side, missed, and the other side countered and scored I thought it was ridiculous people even got that carried away about us getting a penalty. Didn't Leicester have the same thing happen in one of their games as well? And I seem to remember at least 2 of the games had the same referee.

McCormack didn't save our bacon by the way Canada, had he not scored his goal we'd still have been promoted.

Yes your absolutely right. But it wasn't till he after scored that I knew we'd done it!!

What made you move to Canada? Work? Leisure? Retired mobster?

LOL...I emigrated when i was 23 in 1962....so "retired mobster"..nope. I was working at Reckitts on Dansom Lane for 600 quid a year after graduation so figured I could do better somewhere else. Got on a cargo ship in Hull headed for Montreal. The 4500 dollars i got for my first job at Pilkington Glass in Toronto seemed like a kings ransom. The Scouser followed me a year later. Those were the days!!
 
Bloody hell Canada! I hope you never listen to a broadcast of "war of the worlds" - you'll be heading for the bunker.
It's a rumour and almost certainly untrue.
All this panic about hurting Dr. Allam's feelings has made you quite intemperate. Even the most critical on this board who oppose CTWD don't actually (in the main), support the name change. Where on earth did you get the idea that those against are some kind of minority who will "lose what remaining support they have"?

I overheard some chat in town today between a group who were plotting to use their thermos flasks to smuggle in flares, which they will get out in the bogs before bringing them in to the seats.

Think the club need to be checking this route out.

Seems to be a far better plan than the one used in an A League match in Sydney earlier this season.After flares were lit during the match and a steward slightly burned as he attempted to stop one rolling down a stairway, a thorough review of CCTV footage revealed that the day before the match a maintenance worker at the stadium was observed with the flares and hiding them under a seat in the stand.


He lost his job and was banned from A League matches for several years and the police are still considering other possible criminal charges.

Where you at Reckitts in mid 1960? My husband came there for an interview for a Perfumery Chemist position after post-grad in London.He also went to interviews at Smith and Nephew and JH Fenner.All jobs offered were around 600 quid/annum. He ended up finding a job paying 800 quid in Lancaster.

I can't agree with this view at all. Why is scouse not a legitimate accent? We have to listen to southern prats on telly most of the time and I find them far more irritating. Nobody really says 'rum' instead of 'room' in real life do they? If people said they didn't like hearing Indian accents and they shouldn't be allowed on telly everyone would moan and say it's racist, but it's allowed for scousers?

I love Scouser accents. Geordies, the Ridings of Yorkshire, Cumbria/Westmorland, Cornwall, even Manc.

But not London/SE/Home Counties/Posh 'Received English' nor Brum/Black Country.
