Ex Rovers

[Drog]

No he went to wolves for what was big money back then. John (Dracula) Butcher took over the gloves.

Ah that was it. Knew there was a Wolves connection.

Darwen cc fundraiser tonight with Chris Sulley, Colin Hendry and Mark Patterson as speakers.
My mate just bought this in the raffle. It's Duggie scoring for England but what year and who against?

 

[Drog]

No guesses?
1963 England v brazil. 1-1

Remember the days when people used to say this guy wasn't good enough for Rovers?
Remember the days when Mogasaurous binned this guy in favour of some 3rd rate dog breed that cannot even get a game in the 3rd division?

Well those days were not that long ago. And here we are thinking Pears is amazing (because the other guy is almost always so much worse).

Well done David and the psychologists at Brentford. One of the best reaction savers in the business but with a dodgy and fallible temperament which he seems to have overcome.

[Drog]

Thanks steve but I just say what I see.

 

[Old Darwen Blue]

Thanks steve but I just say what I see.

Even when you’re clearly wrong.

 

[Drog]

ODB can you point out what I wrote about Raya above which is clearly wrong?

I was thinking of our ex South American superstar striker. I can’t even remember what you originally said about Raya.

 

[Drog]

Allow me to help with our South American 'striker', I was saying the same as the new Chile boss and most Sheff Utd fans.

 

[Old Darwen Blue]

Sheff Utd returns are two goals in four games, Sheff Utd fans know nothing. That new Chile coach is merely cracking the whip.

I’m sure I heard recently that this condition can now be treated?

 

[Drog]

I hope so but I doubt any degeneration can be reversed.

 

[Husky]

He's fucked basically.

4 years after diagnosis and he is already in a nursing home. His quality of 'life' must be low level no matter how long they try and keep him alive.
