Title: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Sheriff Fatman on September 06, 2005, 02:38:02 PM I can imagine the abuse that will follow the statement but there's an article in the (ahem!) Sun Woman section about women players which includes a biography of Mel.
Page 36 for anyone who's interested. Sheriff Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: tikay on September 06, 2005, 02:38:55 PM You read The Sun? WHAT? Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Sheriff Fatman on September 06, 2005, 02:41:12 PM Unfortunately the 'quality press' don't believe that football exists outside of the Premiership so I have to trawl the tabloids for news of Barnsley's latest crisis.
Sheriff Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: tikay on September 06, 2005, 02:43:52 PM That's simply not true Sheriff, & you need a better excuse than that.
Try The Times Footie Supplement on a Monday - "The Game" - it's AWESOME. You will not find better footie coverage in any daily newspaper, quality or not. Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Sheriff Fatman on September 06, 2005, 02:47:02 PM I want a match report, not a soundbite from the two managers.
Also, what about Tuesday to Saturday's events? Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Ironside on September 06, 2005, 02:49:27 PM wow the sun has a page 36 i have never gotten past page 3
Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: tikay on September 06, 2005, 02:49:42 PM You get a Match Report from EVERY match Sheriff. Don't knock it until you have tried it - trust me!
Tuesday to Saturday as well, though not in Supplement form. Tell you what, go & buy it, & if I am wring, I'll pay you the cover price when we next meet. Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Trace on September 06, 2005, 02:52:13 PM Thank God he didn't miss print the page 36 and leave the 6 off!
lmao ::) ::) :o (Sun would of had a big sales return for today if he had) Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: RyG on September 06, 2005, 03:01:06 PM Good man Sheriff, Im Barnsley fan too.
You from Barnsley i tek it? Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: RED-DOG on September 06, 2005, 03:02:51 PM Blokes from Barnsley, lakin at poker?
Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Robert HM on September 06, 2005, 03:13:49 PM You tykes can't have your manager back , he's doing well at Meadow Lane
Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: RyG on September 06, 2005, 03:19:44 PM Paul Clown Hart
Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Sheriff Fatman on September 06, 2005, 03:20:26 PM You tykes can't have your manager back , he's doing well at Meadow Lane It was a harsh decision when we got rid of him. The only reason was to bring in Ridsdale's own man, the enigmatic, charismatic Paul Hart. I hope Gudjon does well at County - he did a reasonable job at Oakwell in difficult circumstances. RyG - I grew up in Ryhill so Barnsley was the closest team for me, although it'd never be classed as part of the Tarn (different county for a start!). Tikay - I'll put your faith to the test re The Times footy coverage. Do they also have topless women? Sheriff PS: I can't believe I've managed to hijack my own thread! Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: tikay on September 06, 2005, 03:21:49 PM Ahh, you got me there Sheriff - no nudity in The Times. But there's sexual attraction in clothed peeps too, you know......
Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: RyG on September 06, 2005, 03:23:47 PM oh aye, Thordarson, liked him, stayed at the hotel where i worked an all, top bloke
LOL, remember the old "Its just like watching Ryhill chants" Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: TightEnd on September 06, 2005, 03:43:26 PM great pies at Barnsley......
Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: RyG on September 06, 2005, 03:59:40 PM They were turd when i had a season ticket

The weather was rubbish and I was screamed at for being a scab though and the miners strike was 15 years before that! Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: redsimon on September 06, 2005, 04:10:45 PM We are due to play there this week. Never been to a more wretched dump full of knuckleheads (well apart from Stoke City) ;)
Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Trace on September 06, 2005, 04:18:38 PM Poor Mel
She has a claim to fame and you lot end up waffling on about football! :'( Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Ironside on September 06, 2005, 04:19:33 PM only cause she was on the wrong page

Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: RyG on September 06, 2005, 05:48:20 PM Redsimon,
Most Barnsley folk are probably the friendliest people your ever likely to meet... Unfortunately they are some plonkers around Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Dingdell on September 06, 2005, 06:53:50 PM ...or The Sun..... Oi Oi Oi - my claim to fame is that I used to write for this comic - my headline was "Want to know if your PEPS's doing well - give our Tracey Dell a bell" . It's a great paper for people who dont want to read unbiased news reporting............ Title: Re: Mel Lofthouse in today's Sun! Post by: Robert HM on September 06, 2005, 07:29:34 PM There's two Blondites mentioned in the article.
