When Burton's was in Rochdale next to the old ABC, it was known to everyone as Burton's

Not knowing the difference between "sew" and "sow" isn't a good look for someone who purports to earn a living through the use of English

Will be interesting to see who Burton (not *Burtons the tailors*) appoint, when it's announced

The experience of this episode will, hopefully, stand the club in good stead, and all part of the learning experience not just for JM but for the new board

The key issue (for me at least) is whether he went for interview

No harm in speaking, as a matter of courtesy, to reps from Burton if approached - but was there anything pro-active by JM?

*troll alert... someone may pop along to claim i'm "destabilising the club"

Just like Englebert, you've tried to re-invent yourself

As i said, others know better

Which nicely demonstrates your inability to let something go...

You may fool some with your "nicey nicey" but there's others who know different

Rarely go past Stoney now, but the state of the grass looks like there's no football being played - used to be state of the mud!

Wilfrid's 68-71 then Henshaw's and the wrath of Kelly...

There was a huge slope on that upper pitch, not just top to bottom but right to left too

The bottom pitch wasn't quite as bad

There was always something going on, especially during school holidays and the days extended to late into the evenings until it became too dark to play

Went to school with those lads, same year as Cyril Popham

That's fine by me, but some just can't help trolling, having a chip on their shoulder from some years ago - just a bit of context

You credit me with far more influence than i credit myself with

How's that for an inferiority complex?

Who are you to tell anyone what the club either does or doesn't need?

I'd answer a genuine question on here to someone whose opinion i respect

This is why it's never a great idea to get too attached to a particular individual. Football is, of course, an emotional game. You'll see players kissing cameras and banging the logos on their chests week in week out - it's all bollocks, trying to manipulate the fans

Do i think JM has an attachment to Dale? Yes, i think it's genuine. How much it'd take to prise him away i've no idea; is Burton enough, after being given such a chance at the outset of his post-playing career and rewarded with an exceptional contract?

It's a job, and JM is on a learning curve which he can either embrace or just carry on reading the manual, which at some point will become out-of-date

I'd imagine there's a club moratorium on any such questions

The way the Liverpool team looks to progress the ball bears no resemblance to what we see at the COA. That's partly down to the quality of player, of course, but the "gegenpress" legacy from the highly successful Klopp remains the most salient feature

There may be examples of Liverpool conceding possession at the back, allowing their opponents to score, but can't recall one
