    50 years ago today Boro clinched the 73/74 title away to Luton

    They were definitely on the train - not sure if all of them were but Jack Charlton and some players were definitely on the train.

    50 years ago today Boro clinched the 73/74 title away to Luton

    I went on league liner with my dad and his mates. Stood on terrace in main stand - was pushed to the front on my own. 7 years old in the home end. Team came back on the train and walked through carriages serving champagne. I can remember the team on the platform of Luton station before the...

    Rayner-gate

    She sold the house on the pretence that she had been living in it - and not with her husband and children in a nearby house. Therefore by stating (Lying) thus she was living at the address she did not have to declare any gain. Also if the house was empty she would have been liable for full...

    Ombudsman finds that WASPI women are owed compensation...

    Yes I do - but in my opinion it shouldn’t have. If we have equality which we should have it’s need to work both ways. Why should a male who is exactly the same age as a female work years longer to get the same pension? And as for them not knowing - I don’t believe that.

    Ombudsman finds that WASPI women are owed compensation...

    They should have - it would have saved 3 years of tax payers money bring wasted on the investigation. My retirement age has gone up 2 years since I started working - Where is my compensation. Should I make up that I don’t know and turn up when I’m 65 to claim my pension? I’m sure they would...

    New Champions League format

    It is worse than that - they don’t even have to do well. This season Man Utd and Newcastle both finished bottom of their group (Happy Happy days) Newcastle got one more point thanMsn Utd which equates to around €900,000 so Newcastle should have got around €900,000 more prize money than Man Utd...

    New Champions League format

    Sorry, my point isn’t really about qualifying for the knock out round - There will be 24 teams in the knock out round so for them teams that qualify for the group / league phase it will obviously be easier. But once they do qualify the draw will be rigged - the euro coefficient crap will come...

    New Champions League format

    The only interesting part of champions league is the pre qualifying rounds. After that is is just a load of super league clubs who I hope get beat and knocked out. Man U getting knocked out by Copenhagen this year was great

    New Champions League format

    If this was true the changes wouldn’t be happening. It is all about getting money to the top / big clubs and rigging the competition / draw to try and ensure they qualify. The whole competition is rigged and really just a pile of crap

    Academy players - too cautious?

    What you have said appears to be the main issue - If the best / stand out players get taken by the big clubs ( Man U, City, Chelsea etc) it must be far harder to bring players through. They might take the one player you had pinned your hopes on People seem to be saying our young players should...

    Kieran Scott - leaving?

    Nobody really knows what goes on - What players has Scott recommended that we haven’t signed for various reasons that have gone on to better things or not. What players has Scott discarded that have gone on to better things or not. Unless you are involved in the dealings of the club nobody...

    Kieran Scott - leaving?

    Van de Berg - go on link him to Danks. Who decided to keep Akpom - was that Danks before he came to the club - Or maybe it might have been Scott telling Wilder he was staying - This might not be true but one thing is certain Wilder didn’t want him.

    Leeds United v Leicester City

    You were right with what you were saying but the player needs to be offside to start with - Then what the opposition player does or doesn’t do may come into it.

    Leeds United v Leicester City

    That only applies when he is in an offside position when the ball is played forward by his own team. In this case the Leicester player was onside when the ball was played forward and it struck the crossbar. Therefore it doesn’t matter if the Leeds player accidentally or deliberately played the...

    Leeds United v Leicester City

    That is irrelevant in this situation - the Leicester player was not offside at any time. He could only have been offside if the Leicester player had touched it after it hit the bar. If for example it deflected straight back to the Leicester player off the crossbar he would have been onside.
