  1. @RetroPie There's no need to buy a New Wheelbarrow, if you just need a New Wheel. Undo the fixing bolts and remove the washer tubes. Getting the right size wheel measure the wheel diameter, that's from one edge of the wheel tyre to the other. Measure the hub length the spindle which goes through the wheel. And measure the Hub Bore Diameter. The hole in the middle of the wheel. A Wheelbarrow wheel expert (found at Garden Centres) some shops which sell Wheelbarrows may have an expert who will help you choose the correct type of bearing for your wheel. Best Tyre Patten to use is the Ribbed Pattern as this causes minimal build up of mud Ideal for your garden or allotment. Hope this Helps.
  2. £750,000. You're having a Laugh. Who ever Negotiated that Deal want's FIRING. That's all it took to Sell a Goal Machine like Macca? It was rumoured last season he was worth at least £1.5 million. So much for It will take a exceptional offer to coax Macca away from the Lane, So Much for We don't need to Sell Players Eh? Richard Montague. Why is everything Hush Hush? Why Not tell the Fans the Details of Macca's Transfer? It will come out eventually anyway, so why Not Tell Us Now? So we Fans can understand why he's been Sold at a Lowly Price. Honestly we Fans are treated as if we're Stupid. Am I Pi**ed Off You Betcha Regarding Macca himself a Footballer's Career is a Short one and can easily be stopped by an injury. Going on to Better things I Don't think it could have happened to a Nicer Guy. Macca I Sincerely Hope you go on to Break even more Records and hopefully you find yourself playing in the Premier League One Day. You were a Star At The Lane, You'll Always Have A Place in Every Notts Fans Heart. You Sir Are A Legend, and May all Good Things Come Your Way. MACCA LONGSTAFF - HE'S ONE OF OUR OWN.
  3. STEP FORWARD CEDWYN SCOTT- YOUR TIME IS NOW.
  4. I Will Make One Final Remark Regarding This Topic. KEEP POLITICS OUT OF SPORT AND OFF OF THIS WEBSITE.
  5. @Fan of Big Tone I Couldn't Disagree with You More. This Government will just be Like the Last One the Country will be swallowed up by Immigrants Taxes will be higher Food will be dearer and The Non Obtainable Net Zero will Crush life out of the Ordinary Man in the Street. We now have a Prime Minister who will bow Down to the EU and Probably take the UK back into that God Forsaken Vipers Nest via the Back Door. Starmer is a Man who would be happy to be Ruled by the Elites of Davos (something he's Admitted to) who's Slogan is You Will Own Nothing , Have Nothing And Be Happy.
  6. That is What Nigel Farage is trying to do, get Rid of this Country's Stupid and Out Of Date Electoral System. He has a Tiny Bridgehead Now within Parliament, but from little Acorns do Mighty Oaks Grow.
  7. My Last Topic about Three Leopards went quite well. So I thought I'd do a Follow Up. Not really about Three Leopards ( who will get a mention) but more about the different Badges worn by English teams in other Sports as well as Football. After the Three Lions the most used England Badge is that of the Cross of Saint George ( who Nike thought it would be clever to mess about with) This Emblem a Red Cross on a White background also has a interesting and Long History. The Flag of Saint George of course came to the fore front when the Emblem was chosen by the English Crusader Knights when fighting in the Holy Land during the Third Crusade. It is reported (but never proven) That Richard 1 the Lion Heart adopted the Flag and Saint when he fought in the Third Crusade which began in 1190. Interestingly during the 1966 World Cup the Union Jack was used instead of the Cross of Saint George. And during the Final all the English Fans only waved the Union Jack. A Lot Different to the English Fans Of Today. Carl Fogarty the English World Superbike Champion claimed that it was he who reintroduced the use of St George's Flag during his Victories During the World Superbike Series. Another Motor Bike Sport Speedway, the English team has used several Types of English Flags on their Race Jackets. The Cross of St George the Three Lions (in the Leopards/Lions pose) but they were Red Lions on a White Background. And a Single Red Lion (Rampant) on it's hind Legs Facing Forward also on a White Background. The Third English Emblem used by an English Sports Team is of Course the Red Rose of England has used by the England Rugby Union Team. The Rose also appears on the Quartered Shield of the British & Irish Lions International Rugby Team. Along with the Scottish Thistle, The Irish Shamrock and The Prince of Wales Three Feathers. The Shield as a Golden Lion in the walking pose (the same pose as the 3 Lions on the England Football Badge). Finally the England Cricket Team, like it's Football counterparts also Supports a Badge of Three Lions. The only difference to the Football Badge is a Crown is placed above the Lions and there are No Tudor Roses on the Cricket Badge.
  8. @KB1862 You Don't need your Polling Card. Just Your Voter I.D.
  9. Another American word is Zit Which means Spot. So when playing Soccer (as they call it) A Foul in the Penalty area will result in the Ball being placed on the Penalty Zit. Then of course you can't beat a Big bowl of Custard covered a Large Piece of Zitted Dick. An Englishman who went to live in the States got himself a Personalized Car License Plate. Which had the word BOLOX on it. When asked by an American what the word meant, he was told it was English slang for Spot. Well the American arrives in England, goes to Boots the Chemists and says Excuse Me But Do You Have Anything For These BOLOX I Have On The Back Of My Neck?
  10. FROM THE FRYING PAN INTO THE FIRE.
  11. Poor Decision by the Club if this is True. Tiernan Brooks and Alex Bass pushing Each other for the Number 1 Jersey, would be a Good Thing. Being unchallenged for your Position within the First Team makes a Player become Lazy with a I Don't Care Attitude, knowing the only way he'll be Replaced is if he's injured. No Disrespect To Sam Slocombe but at 36 his career is starting to wined Down and Alex (I would think) would be looking for someone to keep him on his Toes and Challenge Him for his Place Between the Posts.
  12. I think who ever wrote the Piece about the Save Got a Wee Bit Over Excited. And I think there are other Saves available to watch on You tube which are as Good. Like it's been Stated it was the headed Save and the Excitement of that the Save which got Turkey through to the next round which perhaps brought out the Banks comparison. But Really there is No Comparison. Despite an Excellent Stop, it's No where near as Good As The Banks One.
  13. @Robbie 50 Million? Why would the Owners let the Stadium get into that sort of Disrepair? The Comfort and Safety Of The Fans Must Come First, because they are the Be All and End All of Everything. Because without the Fans there would Be No Football Club. The F.A. need to Investigate this and where ever the Damage is that Area should be Closed To Fans until Repairs are Fully Carried Out. What the Hell would happen if a Fan(s) seated in that part of the Ground were injured in anyway due to the Damage?
  14. Lets Hope NOTTS on the Tele Jinx Doesn't Strike!!
  15. @DeadlyMacca It's Pronounced PU -SEY. Not P***Y. There used to be to Liverpool Brothers Chris and Geoff who used to Ride Speedway with the same Surname.
  16. @DeadlyMacca It would seem ever since the Glaziers took over, United have been on the Slippery Slope Downwards, with the occasional Bright moment. The Appointment of Jim Ratcliffe doesn't seem to have had the desired effect either. How long before we see another Fans revolt against the current Owners?
  17. Great. But he should be made to serve the full 11 years and Not let out after a couple of years, because he's Sorry and has learned the Errors of his ways and it won't Happen again.
  18. What do Man Utd Expect? They spend silly money on Transfers, it seems every player who becomes available is a Target for them. They've given Kobbie Mainoo a new contract quadrupling his weekly wage, Erik Ten Haag isn't going to come cheap, when they finally get round to offering him an improved contract. Old Trafford is Falling Apart and the ordinary worker is the one who's going to find themselves Out Of A Job.
  19. @Robbie Unfortunately I also have a clear memory of that match. In fact I don't think Peter Bonetti ever played for England Again. I know Bobby Charlton said in his Autobiography on the flight back home from Mexico, Alf Ramsey came and sat with him and said Thankyou for all your efforts for England. He said I knew then my England career was over. Another Quote about the same match came from Franz Beckenbauer the German Captain. England were 2-0 at half time and Ramsey took Bobby Charlton off, to rest him for the Semi Final. We couldn't believe it Charlton was running everything in Mid Field and England take their Best Player Off, this gave us the advantage and determination to go on and Win The Match. Which they Did.
  20. There are Fair Points regarding both Liking and Disliking the New Kit. When I First saw it I was a Fan (I still am) but I can see why some Fans Prefer the Traditional Black and White Stripes, but I think the New Design is Aimed at the Younger Generation of Notts Fans, as they are more likely to Buy one of the New Shirts. We Older Fans (Yes I Count myself as one) Tend to buy a Shirt we Like and Stick with it. The Different Array of Notts Shirts on display down the Lane confirms that. I might have considered buying one, but I Just Do Not Like The Sponsors Red &White Logo plastered across the Front.
  21. @Chris Peter Bonetti the Chelsea Keeper was Called the Cat. He took over from Gordon Banks in the 1970 World Cup Quarter Final against West Germany in Mexico after Banks was unable to play because of Illness. He also took a lot of stick from the English Press because the Germans beat England 3-2 after being 2-0 down. Is that the Guy you're thinking of?
  22. It was a very Good Save. But Not A Patch on Banks Stop. The Baumgartner Header wasn't as Powerful as Pele's, plus the fact Gordon had to move across his goal and Get Down on to the floor to scoop the Ball Over The Bar. I Don't Know What a Load Of Hype. @Fan of Big Tone It's has you say regarding the aftermath of Gordon's Save there's No Hugging or Posturing from Banks or his team Mates. He just gets on with his Job.
  23. Best of Luck at Chester Connell.
  24. I Enjoy History and Just lately I've Started Looking At My Family History. It's Amazing What you find out about your Ancestors. My Great Grandad got his First Job, When He Was 10 Tears Old. He was a Wringer Out, For A One Armed Window Cleaner.
  25. @liampie How True Your Words Are. How Very True.
