    Morning All (although it will be afternoon by the time my trusty single finger types this!

    fondest memory? Has to be the NOT606 meetup. Only time this season I looked forward to a Saturday, and actually entered ER with a smile on my face. We won too, but that was by-the-by.

    Delighted for Rossco that he scored us so many goals, however, if he wasn't playing, someone else would be there, and scoring too (although perhaps not quite so prolific). What we tend to forget is that not only is Rossco our top, top scorer, but he's our most creative force too. Not difficult with our midfield you might argue, but tbh, it's impossible to be in 2 places at once. wish we could clone him!

    Now having praised Rossco, let me now put him firmly in his place in the LUFC hall of fame. He cannot even think about getting near our top 5. No-one in the last 10 years can think about it. It's apples & oranges. How can you truly measure someone in a second class league against someone in the top flight? Beckford is a good example. Fell on his face when he moved up. Becchio? He's love to get the chance to fall on his face! The fact is, we've had some fantastic strikers in the top flight, and some very long-serving ones too, and the best of them were always consistent. I can't honestly put together a top 5. Too many variables. I saw Bridges name mentioned, and I must admit that he really excited me. What a prospect! The injuries were a great shame. Let me sign off by putting the cat amongst the pigeons. Allan Smith was superb for us. Gave us his best years, and truly, truly played with such passion for the jersey. Scored a few goals too, as I remember. Wonder if anyone else will mention his name now I've brought it up? <devil>

    Bolton are moving from Reebok to Macron, and the stadium will become the Macron Stadium.

    Give it a couple of washes and it'll fall apart! <laugh>

    Not as funny as you starting to jump up and going all squeaky when you had your one attempt at goal...

    If he hit Kebe smack in the mouth, then there's a chance that Kebe might have dribbled for ths first time this season. I'll get me coat .....
