@brb Max Ehmer released. Masterson not tied down yet. Sort it out.

Been loyal to the club, one of the highest number of appearances and often made the scapegoat - he had a confrontation with fans during a game last season, I think he was right to do so, but people would say you shouldn't do that. It's this whole booing argument again, how that is ever able to motivate a team is beyond me...Imagine playing for a top European club that wins the league and does that, wouldn't happen...oh hang on....

Hopefully we will hold on to Masterson, but I don't generally follow the transfer news, I leave it until someone tells me...him and our young prospect Sam Gale can cover as CB's now.

Gales the one to watch, hopefully he'll continue as he did this season, then he'll start attracting attention, if he hasn't already. He's a little naive at times, but you have to make mistakes to learn, I'm still old school where players lump it away, but these days people want to **** about with it at the back and you see it so many times in the game now, where that don't end well.
 
I'd assumed that from Paddington Leyton on the Central would be easier than Charlton on Thameslink?

From Paddington I’d probably eat/drink around London Bridge and go to Charlton from there.

Don’t know Leyton well and it’ll have changed wildly in the last few years but it’s easy on the Elizabeth line to Stratford now.

I should say actually in my lifetime, both Steve Bruce and John Egan came from us...does he look anything like them when young, I'll let you know next season, I think a lot of more experienced players leaving, it will help him take over ruling the roost at the back, and being a tad more vocal and aggressive.

Exactly what we did for Millwall, just this second been looking at it again.

Thameslink from London Bridge, plenty options round there.

Probs go the Horniman again.

Will eagerly await more news. Cheers.

Was engineering works on the main line from London bridge when went to Millwall. Was a ****ing nightmare as got on the jubilee line and old bill forced us to Canada Water and then a slow stop start march from there. Took almost 90 minutes from leaving the pub.

Not going next season if the normal line isn't open.

Was open the other week.

It's one stop to South Bermondsey from London Bridge, platform 14, then straight down a path into the away end.

Yeah it's normally probably the easiest ground to get to in the country. Was just a massive ballache last season and I wouldn't do that again.
 
Another boring fact, Burnley have a lot of West Yorkshire fans as they are right on the border.

This only adds to their mutantness.

Blackburn and Preston very much Lancashire. <rose>
Horse ****
Complete and utter horse ****
The border is around Todmorden
And the folks of Todmorden say they are Yorkshire through and through and don’t support Burnley
Burnley claim to be Lancashire through and through

Forgot that ridiculous little nonce Nathan Jones managed Charlton so I’ll take Orient over them. Bring back Brian Clough punching pitch invaders.

The border is at Todmorden?

What, like the brandenburgh gate or something? It's a very long border between two very large counties.

The people of Keighley, for instance, have plenty support Burnley as their most local team.

So, not horseshit at all.

Todmorden is the town on the border not Burnley
Burnley are not ‘right on the border’
But Sorry I apologise
I completely forgot that you are the font of all knowledge and know everything
Will leave at that and stay off this board
