Draws are next to useless 17:27 - Sep 30 with 41051 viewsborntogo

Just to point out, to anyone going hoopla about all these 'battling', 'well-earned' nil-nil draws - they're as good as useless. Basically, if a team draws every game through a season, they will be relegated.

Sure, they're better than losing but a couple of slutchy 1-0 wins equates to six battling, well-earned bore-outs.

It's a concern that Hill is currently packing his subs' bench with our most attacking players (and arguably our best in Done, Davies, Slew, Andrew etc), as if he's actively seeking draws.

Rochdale, since time began, has always been a side that plays better off the front foot, going for it rather than consolidating etc. We'll probably revert to type eventually but will lose a lot of points in the meantime.

I hope kiwidale meant you get lollipops from a confectioners, not ice lollies?

Anyone who thinks otherwise knows f*ck all about sweets


point of order... surely confectionery is cakes and chocolate bars? technically your ice lolly is neither anybody who disagrees know f*ck all about it.

That reminds me of the underrated Love hearts sure they were chalky tasteless shite but they were cheap enough at tuppence also the only way to chat up the lass you fancied at school. I used to give all my pink "love me" ones to nancy malone all the green "kiss me" ones to mary conroy the yellow "be mine" to ruth jones and orange "Im yours" ones to random girls in the off chance they fancied you. unrequited love in action non of em gave me a second glance.

Ha! A dangerous way to travel! I've done the opposite...

Took me about 20 minutes to walk from Furness Vale station when the Nav had a beer festival on, suddenly realised the last train was due in 10 minutes and just made it back after a mad dash!

Technically a Tart is neither a cake or a biscuit depending on the context its either a puddin or a slapper or in the case of some of them big lasses I pulled in Tiffenys both.

This is getting confusing. Or Random? In NZ, a sweet is not a sweet, its a lolly. We have Lolly scrambles where "sweets" are thrown for kids to scramble after. Lollies are Ice Lollies. As for Jaffa, to the rest of NZ it is an insult to someone who lives in Auckland.
I submit Tim Tams as my favourite

Oh, and draws are useful, a point is better then none, you can't win them all.

For the record

Mans sweet - Trebor extra strong mints

Women's sweet - Palma Violets

Fittest Cartoon Character - She Ra, Cheetara, Betty Rubble... and for some reason The Cadbury Bunny... which sort of completes the circle, although Cadbury's Caramel is a confectionary not a sweet.
