Re: Snooker: Tony Knowles comeback

I remember Knowles taking part on Superstars. Didn't do very well there either. To be fair LotB, the chain-smoking, nightclub-loving boy from Bolton wasn't ideally positioned to take on some of the nation's (and in some cases, the world's) finest athletes... That said, I feel obliged to track it do...

Re: Your Ropey League Final [non WHU]

Understand that losing to Tottenham is hard to take, but even still this seems to be a bit of an overreaction...

Re: Your Ropey League Final [non WHU]

Doubt the winning penalty taker enjoyed being knocked out by a pitch invader, though. :grin:

Blurb states: Our Shirt stays will keep your shirt perfectly tucked, even if you move, kneel, sit or stretch. Manufactured and designed in Sweden in finest materials that feels natural and soft against...

Re: Olympic Stadium Discussion and Questions

I'm sure it has been mentioned a million times, but putting Claret and blue seats in instead of white one's would make it look a lot better. It didn't at The Boleyn. Those seats looked awful once they'd faded a bit. The thing about white seats (which, let's not forget, is still a club colour) is th...

Snooker: Tony Knowles comeback

I'm sure many of you will remember "Bolton's finest" from the game's heyday. Well, he's back - at the age of 69 - to participate in Q School tomorrow with view to earning a two-year tour card (which would make him the oldest pro on the circuit by some six years). As he was, back in the day...

Re: Season tickets: Renewals, price increases & Concession reductions

I'm not going to renew - been going a long time but with 1 year old and another on the way, it's hard to justify the 3 hour round trip every other weekend. Especially with so many Sunday/Monday night KOs when trains are usually a nightmare. So for you TJB, the stadium isn't an issue - just that per...
