I once scored from the penalty spot against the best keeper in the Don and Dearne League many moons ago. That's my offering for what it's worth. You won't find that one in the archives. UTM!
Correction to above statement. It was the Totty Cup and not in the Don and Dearne League. Apologies if I appear to be bragging. It was one of my claims to fame.

Having said that - quietly sorted out out many a gob s##tes on the football pitch....I would really love that...the bigger the mouth ( ego ) the more satisfaction I got.
Those days are long gone though sadly - you could have learned a lot though - the quiet ones are the most dangerous....they just do it NOT talk about it...lol

I should stick to rummaging around dustbins or did officer Dibble evict you....
Football is about opinions and yours are as valid as mine. Dick measuring never appeals to me especially regarding football careers. I did ok and have happy memories. There's always someone better though so be happy in your own skin.
Loosing it however - like you just have though lol would be meat & drink to me on a football pitch - serious question.....do you finish many games or get sent off a lot....lol
Great player sent off....no good to anyone really is it ?
It is very sad that just because you are anti-Warne you can't give him credit where it is due when it turns out that he patently obviously did a good job. You can't bring yourself to acknowledge it can you? A good man does well and you can't stand to see it because he isn't EVO or your mate Stubbs. Very, very sad indeed.
No-one sadder than you bornamillerhater
Did you ever run out onto the pitch at White Hart Lane? The fact that I have doesn't make me a football guru, that you appear to think that you are.
Every forum across the world is full of football guru's. Suggestions that I am are just schoolyard banter - and that's the sad part of these little chats.
The perception that PW doesn't get any credit is wrong - he didn't want the job in the first place so he was coerced into the hot seat. He has been a safe pair of hands but he's not been as brilliant as most give him credit for.
He can't cope with players with "attitude" and those are some of the better players going forward. He thinks Yates is worth keeping?
As for his cheap as chips centre backs scoring two own goals v S****horpe - we'll one and then kicking kodak for the second goal. He's not a championship player.
Teflon coated last year when he played extraordinary open football when a more defensive set up was needed was naive to say the least.
Everyone loves Warne but the football last year was a throw of the dice football - anything could and did happen and only the lack of quality all over the pitch decided the outcome - and sorry we were still running at the end of the game....good but not a great leap in the standard of football played.
Good luck to him he'll need it this year....If he wasn't TEFLON I'd feel sorry for him tbf.
Derry City ace Aaron McEneff is poised to join Championship side Rotherham United when the transfer window opens on July 1.
It will be another serious body blow to the Candystripes who saw Ronan Curtis leave for Portsmouth earlier this month.
McEneff has been Derry’s standout performer this season and has weighed in with 10 league goals from midfield.
Wigan and Bristol City were also keen on the 22-year-old who signed a two-year contract extension in 2016 but will be a free agent at the end of this season.
Former Dundalk star Richie Towell joined Rotherham on loan from Brighton last season and played a key role in their promotion success via the League One playoff final.
And ahead of their Championship campaign, manager Paul Warne said the emphasis is on signing quality not quantity.
sounds good to me.... I'd much rather have players on the up who have a chance of improving, than cast-offs and youth players from premiership that actually are not that good, or someone you've heard of, but they are totally past-it... that's one of the mistakes Evans made.
Can't wait to see him in a Millers shirt based on the quality of players they brought in last season...... UTM
When and how did you come up with the theory that Warne "can't cope with players with "attitude" Examples please bornamillerhater. You clearly know him intimately.
There was a player once called Roy Keane who Forest paid an Irish club ten bob for and he turned out to be a decent player. The Towell example is another good one. He is no Roy Keane but he is a sound player.
We have to take a punt on this type of young player from lower leagues or leagues like this. As Warne has rightly said we can't afford to just buy finished Championship articles off the shelf. The only oven ready experienced Championship players we could afford are likely to be past it. Danny Collins, Lewis Buxton, Kelvin Wilson, Dexter Blackstock and Paul Green are fair examples of the folly of that policy.
Reportedly other Championship clubs are interested in this lad and if that is right it suggests he has a chance.
Only an idiot or someone with a big axe to grind would pre-judge the clubs entire summer business on the basis of the first rumoured move.

yep totally agree some posters knock players before they have a chance to kick a ball in anger
i will follow my usual policy of waiting til the end of september before criticising a player as they will have had time to bed in what will be a very difficult season
