Great view of Norwood's free kick.

[Jon Bon II]

Go to 5:38 - or a few seconds earlier to hear the Dibnah's abusing Khadra, which makes it all the sweeter.

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

They are Muppets. Why give grief to somebody who you had on a season long loan??
The silencing of their stupid chanting was sweet to hear.

 

[Guesty]

The Dibnahs, I'm stealing that. I saw the great man once, from a distance. He was driving some sort of steam engine down Abbeydale Road, past Millhouses Park.

I noticed Trippier took inspiration from it yesterday for Newcastle.

Some fanbases always abuse ex-players, whatever the circumstances.

For all that people mump about our fans, sometimes with good reason, sometimes without, I'm glad we've never been guilty of that. Yes if someone has left under a cloud, like Che Adams or Ramsdale there's some needle, but not for any player ever who has had the temerity to leave us.

I remember Kevin Mcdonald getting hammered on his return. Got called a greedy bastard mainly.

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Abusing Khadra is like us abusing Gibbs-White. A LOAN player that was your best player and has moved on to better things.

So did Tony Currie.

He was from Bolton.

 

[Guesty]

He was from Bolton.

Yes indeed, I assume Jon meant it broadly refering to Lancastrians.

You sure it wasn't Mousset in flat cap and oil splattered overalls?

 

[Guesty]

Mousset would have been 8 years old at the time, but now you mention it, it probably was him.

 

[Trigger Blade]

I’m sure he did, but locally, the difference between a Bolton accent and a Blackburn accent which you and I might not even detect, was a subject of much mocking, even though they’re about six miles apart

Many years ago, I played for a team in Bolton where apart from me, everybody was a local, except Mick, who was from Darwen, even closer than Blackburn, and he was ribbed mercilessly because of the way he spoke. Not easy to do it in writing, but it was along the lines of “Alreet Mick, have yer porked the cor in the cor pork”

Yeah, research costs nothing

 

[Guesty]

Why am I getting all the flack about Fred Dibnah not being from Blackburn? I didn't say it.

 

[Tickhill Blade]

So did Tony Currie.

And Deano

 

[Guesty]

I remember Deane getting a hero's welcome after he'd signed for Leeds a second time (I think he was still at Leeds when this happened but it might have been at one of his subsequent clubs).

Shut up you prick - he was from Bolton!
