  1. Dear Admin can we change the domain name to RotherhamOwlsonline. Speaking as a former member of the Rawmarsh chapter
  2. I'm lost now. Are we calling them Nevs or Geoffs? Or is a Geoff an uber Nev?
  3. @bazapeps posted this almost a month ago. Same source told me about the tie in with Sheffield University and the pre season in Germany and, according to the interview, they got the Germany bit right.
  4. Still was interviewed before they appointed Beale but the compensation put paid to the appointment. Cifuentes is also in the running and although he's said he'd prefer to stay in London if he doesn't get what he wants out of QPR then he'll be leaving.
  5. Barry gave me a copy of his autobiography many moons ago and it's one of the most entertaining I've read.
  6. We'll be offered first refusal on Vitek if we stay up but he'll come as first choice. If we bin Dawson then we have to decide whether to bring in a more experienced keeper who's happy to be number 2 or promote Charles. Vitek is certainly more physical than Beadle but just as agile. Where he beats Beadle is in his commanding of his area. He's a great talker/shouter and organises his defence well.
  7. It's being built using sections so you could probably take it down and transport it to Sheffield. Just need the footprint and the foundations
  8. @bazapeps The 1867 group could have distanced themselves from the kid and his dad with an official statement on your X account but I'm guessing, please tell me if I'm way off, that the group hierarchy decided to see which way this swung first. Then you post on here that they were nothing to do with the group (still no official distancing) yet they were a bi-product of your protest by using your song. Any instant condoning or distancing, by the group, might have seen you in a different light but the initial reaction across certain media and forums must have seemed like manna from heaven to some within the ranks. You're right in that everyone is entitled to their opinion but that opinion needs to be formed from accuracy. Unfortunately too much is derived from hearsay and misinformation and the 1867 X page is the prime culprit. Whether posted by the group or added to in comments by others the place is hotbed of lies and misinformation (and worse) that people like those two on Saturday are a product of your movement. It could have escalated into a full scale confrontation and I do wonder which side you (the group) would have fallen into and how quickly.
  9. @Hirstys 12th Pint looks like they might be going into the O2 according to this. https://www.eurosport.com/snooker/plans-announced-for-new-world-snooker-championship-venue-to-complement-crucible-theatre_sto8915039/story.shtml
  10. Us, Plymouth, and Cardiff showing an interest in Brighton midfielder Marc Leonard. 22 year old and deemed surplus to requirements. Been on loan at Northampton for the past two seasons and done well. Still under contract but available for £300k or less. Been with Brighton since he was 16 but just not good enough for the Prem
  11. Byers stats look a hell of a lot better in League 1 than they do in the Championship. Particularly around defensive tackles won and interceptions.
  12. Will piss myself if they lose on Saturday and drop out of the playoffs
  13. Bryan Robson has set up a financial advice company for 'high performers' so that they get they don't get stung. https://www.highperformanceindividuals.co.uk/ Their own fees model looks a little bit iffy though. I get the same service at £500 for 3 hours that I do at £2000 for 10 hours. So if I've got four problems then I'm going for four lots of £500 and get 12 hours work out of them.
  14. Been told that Forest will be using last season's Ipswich Charlton game,and PGMOL replacing Wednesday fan James Bell due to Ipswich fan pressure as ref the night before, as a precedent when they are called in by the FA to explain their actions.
  15. Bet you were gutted as you were waiting for the charabanc to take you home.
  16. The council are the current landlords although by the looks of this counter statement they're trying to sell the stadium off which is why they couldn't offer a cast iron 10 years. They did provide the EFL with a letter saying they could have the tenancy for 10 years but if they sold it it would be sold with the stipulation that the new owners could renegotiate the lease. Seems that wasn't enough for the EFL but if I was Gateshead then I'd take it further using Coventry as an example and any other club in a similar position. https://www.gateshead.gov.uk/article/27784/Response-to-the-National-League-s-statement-regarding-Gateshead-FC
  17. Double standards by the EFL. Coventry only signed a five year lease when they went back to the Ricoh https://www.coventry.gov.uk/news/article/4619/council-welcomes-sky-blue-cbs-arena-deal
  18. Stuart Atwell was on VAR for Everton Forest. He's a Luton fan https://talksport.com/football/1837536/nottingham-forest-statement-three-penalties-everton-luton-fan/
  19. Not seen him Fernandes apart from his YouTube clips but here's what I know. Came to us as an u14 from Hunslet boys. Leeds wanted him and he trialled but Danny Cadamarteri played a big part in convincing the lad he'd be better with us. Skipped the 15s and went straight into the u16s where he carried on scoring for fun. Done really well on his scholarship and he was offered a pro deal at the beginning of this month but I can't find out if he's signed it yet. I think he needs a full season in the 21s but with the added incentive of first team training integration, a bit like we've done with the likes of Bailey, Joey, and Sam Reed. He actually favours the 10 role and ghosting from deep than being in a two up top. So he could slot into a Rohl system.
  20. Ex Pig John Lundstram on his way to Ipswich on a free after Trabzonspor couldn't afford his wages
  21. The rest of football needs to find a way to devalue the FA Cup. The EFL, if it hasn't been consulted, could respond by extending the EFL Trophy for a season to include Championship clubs and all EFL clubs withdraw. Change the format to home/away leg straight knockouts and kick the pool games into touch and kick out the PL U21 teams. This increases value to a crap trophy but also coverage and therefore direct revenue into the EFL. Or every club from Championship to National North/South threatens to pull out. Totally devalues round 1 and 2 but gives the true minnows a chance to progress to round 3 and get a premier league club. How many overseas viewers will tune into Morpeth Town Vs Grays Athletic in round 5?
  22. Emi Martinez in goal for Rotherham that day and Jack Hunt gives away the free kick for Nuhiu's equaliser
