The 'where are they now?' files

[Shaggy]

Yeah I love these atmospheres, didnt go to Bramall Lane but heard it was interesting shall we say! Give me a tense, moody atmosphere at Millwall or Sheff Utd in the league Cup over a supposedly "big" league away at Arsenal or the like any day.

Cant believe that **** was like 12 years ago. Dunno where the time goes!! About time we got a decent league cup away draw too!

They're the best. I'm not up for trouble but I like the buzz of walking the grim streets around places like Bramall Lane, swarming with pwopah fackin nawty lads

Was that the 2003 semi against Sheffield United or the 2001 semi against Palace? I remember us smashing Palace 5-0, but I remember the Sheffield United one being much tighter and going to extra time.

As I remember it the Biscan cracker was v Palace...in the game where we all hated Clinton Morrison and right on cue he missed an absolute sitter. We lost 2-1 at Sheff Utd (Michael Tonge got both, Mellor for us) and I think it took extra time in the home leg for us to beat them.

Doh, sorry. Memory going!

Only time I've seen trouble at the game was a mass brawl in the arkles with Sheffield United

[Shaggy]

Same game that wannit? We'd parked down near Asda and walked up to be met by an absolute battle royale outside the Arkles, ****in carnage

[Liverpool]

Haha yeah, I was 12 at time, thrilled watching barstools flying everywhere

[meffin]

Isn't Zak Whitbread in some of the Istanbul pics? On the pitch after the match?

I looked up Ryan Crowther and Nikola Saric the other day. Both doing nowt.

I've had a few, worst was burnley away fa cup, djimi Traore own goal. ****ing horrendous, coldest darkest winter night I'd ever been to a football game, in fact iirc it had been called of about a week earlier due to snow so was played midweek.... four of us went, lad driving, his family is from burnley so he's goes don't worry I know the way, good place to park etc.....which is all well and good except he parks the total opposite end of the ground where all the LFC fans had been herded into and cordoned off.......smack bang in the middle of suicide squad Central but when you come out the other end relatively unscathed and ur adrenaline is pumping it is as shaggy would say, pwoper naw tee

Brad Jones sacked by Bradford.

[Chazza]

Sacked?

Bradford City goalkeeper Brad Jones has left the club after having his contract cancelled by mutual consent.

The 33-year-old joined the Bantams on a one-year deal in August after leaving Liverpool in the summer.

The Australian made just three appearances for the League One side, conceding two goals in every game.

Chief operating officer James Mason told the club website: "We would like to place on record our thanks for Brad's time and effort whilst here."

[Shaggy]

Incredible. To think he kept goal for us at Old Trafford a year ago ffs

[Rich]

Mental. What was Rodgers thinking.

[Lee]

Ouch!

From playing for Liverpool against United in the Premier League to being Bradford's sacked number two in less than a year is quite some going.

[Chazza]

He hasn't been sacked though

[meffin]

I doubt he decided to cancel his contract
