Yep, they belt out the Wild Rover song with the No, Nay, Never bit very audible. That Lancs/Yorks border has some lovely spots away from those old industrial towns and cities.

Strangely enough I have actually been there..had a friend in Halifax,,,great local famed cricketer and CH...at Halifax as a kid but being a stubborn Yorkshire lad left because he wasn't prepared to clean other player's boots. One visit,"Bring your boots,,,might get you a game in our reserves or third team",,,he was a near vet at that time..."Got your boots lad?,,we are both in the first team,"..Thanks a lot!....deep end stuff!!!

ChelseaJambo Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 (edited) 5 hours ago, paulw66 said: wow. Grealish would be a complete disaster. Big time charlie, turns 29 in September, would cost a fortune, have massive wages, and has scored less frequently for City than Sterling has for us (let alone what Sterling did for City) Pep wants him gone for reason. Personally I think he's better than what we've got quite comfortably and would at least give us one player in the front 3 who can trap a bag of cement. As for cost? I couldn't care less, it's not my money and they'd just waste it on someone else anyway. Edited May 1 by ChelseaJambo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a fan of small dogs, don’t get me wrong - love most animals but the small dog syndrome thing gets a bit wearing. I take my Husky out and the small dogs have a yap and get all spiky at her. She just looks at them in disdain and wanders off. Same as the German Shepherd’s did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your point and agree mostly but a real working terrier is not your yappy lap dog ,,,apologies to Mark can see your mob are not all mouth and trousers!,,,character beats yappy every time. OK Jane is watching us closely but an OG relevant "war story" (well chara judged relevant!) ...me and my mate Pete at a clunky dance place in Kingsbury,,,some younger guys we knew came up and asked us if we would "help" them in a "discussion" with a mean bunch from the wilds of Neasden..wandered along to find we were confronting what seemed like a bunch of soppy 14 year old...the Husky/GS response with shaking heads!
