Icki to Derby? NOOOOOOO!

[MILLERSTALE]

Yes, Ellis used to bring me and a few others in from UHCC to play for Rotherham Post Office as 'ringers'. Had some great trips out with them. I think Ellis was related to Ronnie Dudhill in some way who we chatted about a while back.

That's a shame about Brian, I was close friends with his younger brother Alan. I went on my only ever fishing trip with Brian and a fishing club. Off Bridlington in fairly rough seas, puked all day and I caught nothing.


Both nice blokes, a bit older than me but took me under their wings at UHCC and taught me a lot about bowling.

I don't recall the two Dave's you mention.

Brian Edwards went to school with me at Little Haugh School, nicknamed Edda ? He often talked about his younger brother “our nip” a real unpolished diamond was Brian ? ended up doubled up with curvature of the spine, saw him off at the Crem, fishing was his life, he also watched the Millers.
Still see Ellis Brown trolling round the local cricket grounds on Saturday.
Dave Coultas and Lambert used to play at UHCC but must have moved on by the time you started playing, lived on Meadow Avenue near Archie ! Steve Jones fast bowler might have still been at UH when you started ?or even Matt Hamshaw ?

Nasty murder on Jackson Cres about 20 years ago by one of my ex classmates.

Was that the guy that was unfit to stand trial so they sent him to a mental institution?

Yes that's the one Grist. I think I mentioned on here before he really did epitomise what Aristotle said (the philosopher not the guy who runs the Greek restaurant in Barnsley). “Give me a child until he is 7 and I will show you the man.”

Sister lived there more than 20 years cant recall her mentioning a murder.

Well, that's interesting because the murder of a woman called Pashley by her husband took place in Jackson Crescent in 2006. He was found to be unfit to stand trial and sent to a secure hospital. Very sad case and a horrific murder.

That's the one patty, happened in front of their child too. He definitely had violent tendencies even as a 10-12 year old.

Champions League Final

Mane - 30
Henderson - 31
Van Dijk - 30
Thiago - 31
Benzema - 34
Casemiro - 30
Modric - 36
Kroos - 32
Carvajal - 30
Courtois - 30

Young whipper snappers - Salah (30 in 2 weeks), Alisson 29, Alaba 29


10 out of the 22 that started over the age of 30 but I'm sure they are asking themselves 'how much can I better myself?' Clearly they should all have their feet up with pipe and slippers.

The disregard for players on here sometimes due to age is daft.

We can't get players like that we get players aged 30 or over on their last legs! like Potter Jones S Mac Ferguson. Washington I'm hoping for more from him. That should be it up front that age we play a high press game we need younger legs for that.

We can't get players like that but we also aren't in a Champions League Final so don't need players like that.

We need two things, quality and injury free. Yes we need some players who can press like Washington but we need more quality on the ball in this division. Said it time and time and time again, we fall short often because we cannot keep the ball at all in this league. The ball will always move faster than a load of spirited fellas.
