The merlin app keeps a list my daughter is all over it, tells you how many species in our area then logs them as she gets them sorry I don’t even have an iPhone so not much help but know it can be done

Im one up one down pube 2 up missed both but I swear it killed second he can't find it lol

I dont know if its an age thing or not but i just cant summon up all that dedication anymore....i worked out that up until last year ive been to around about 75% of the games West Ham have played over the last 40 years....now while theres chaps i know who have done a lot more than i have thats still a hell of a lot of games,travelling and money.....after losing somebody close last year i was hibernating and didnt go to one game and it kind of taught me that i can live without it.....much as we love the game and being around our pals at games and the whole football day i think that hunger for c

Admission is about 15 to 20 depending on if you sit or stand they had a derby game a few weeks ago attendance was just short of 1700 normally round 12/1300 this season but going up weekly yes it's owned the previous owner I think it was got a decent stretch for fraud I think it was he wanted to buy blackpool but oyston wouldn't sell so he invested in fylde tidy little ground well kept

You must of had a bit of bother this morning lol

That is a good catch mate. As far as bird's of prey go i often pick buzzards and twany owls up on the app.

I think iv said this already tho parents at there waines football matches shouting on from the sideline when they havent the baldiest what there on about,CRINGE

I would of deserved it as well it just shows how far removed it's all gone

Iv read bad things about root canals mate,better off just getting it pulled,apparently your teeth are very important to overall health an are linked to organs in the body.

Just out of curiosity mate,and i know Fylde are a bigger club playing 1 or 2 tiers above my little lot....but what sort of attendances are you getting there ?....how much is admission etc ? do they own their own ground do you know ?.....just interested like

You'd of got your head kicked in mate no question about it.....and probably had your pockets rifled through as well while you was down

Does anyone know of a birders app where you can record species seen? Occasionally watch some guy on youtoob who targets around 275 species a year, but a lot of them are obscure American ducks and Asian sub-species etc. etc., and he puts in some mileage to get to that. Wondered how many I’d see just going about my business. Think if I got 75 I’d be chuffed at that, would be good to have an app to tick them off.

Of the raptors I’ve had kestrel and buzzards, but been wondering how many more I could get. I tried the app on some noisy sparrowhawks at a nest sight last year but it didn’t recognise them. I reckon peregrine would be straightforward enough, and ospreys. Often see red kites, hen harriers and the odd merlin, but don’t recall hearing them call. Merlin is a good catch though.

I didn't know clubs had academy in other countries he must something charts if he's in teams like that I wasn't knocking him attending the game who wouldn't given the chance how does it impact on his schooling if they have a game midweek away

He supports Real Madrid and he can see the stadium from his house so it was an opportunity not to be missed As I said, I’m not happy about these games being played in Saudi, but if Newcastle got to a final , my grandson would have far more chance seeing it played there than getting a ticket to see it at Wembley ! Yes he plays, he was with PSG Academy in Saudi, but moved to Inter Milan Academy as it’s nearer his home; Cheers.

I could imagine the reaction and answer if I asked for a presseco or was seen walking with one at Upton Park

I bet that was a good experience for him and to see players of that level not knocking it but like you say surely a game like that should be kept in Spain but it shows it's all about profit now does he play himself charts as sports seem to be getting more and more investment over there

Not to mention " Pie & a Presecco " at our gaff ........give me strength ffs !

Sometimes even at that age you can just see it like when Beckham came here on loan they just have that something we had Harrison Armstrong on loan from everyone he's the same you can just see it he looks like he has all the time in the world on the ball we have a lad from villa on loan he's another I think will be a big name

My grandson went to the recent Real Madrid v Athletico Madrid Spanish Cup semi final in Saudi Arabia. Less than £20 for a ticket, 58,000 full house, pre game show, half time show and post game show. No fan segregation and no trouble. Shirts and memorabilia at almost give away prices; Im not really in favour of games being played in Saudi as it restricts real home fans from attending, but if the success of this game is anything to go by, I can see it happening more often. Cheers.

I'm not surprised I have bumped in to a few old mates at non league most say how it's not the same now or others have got involved in park football it's a sign of times now I think a lot of lads up and down the country feel the same that's why non league attendance is growing as quickly as it is

Leaving with a few minutes to go in a stinker of a game to beat the rush i kind of get....but im talking about fans going in for a pint at half time and not coming back out again .....they,re literally singing the songs,getting an atmosphere going while watching the game in a pub inside the stadium.....whats that all about.

Out of the little thumbs up things boys, but good chat and I agree with all of it.

Again I agree funny you mentioned pie and a brew my mate sent me a load of pictures of all the different foods on offer at different grounds spuds filled with all sorts of things currys all sorts of shite what is that really about pie or a burger and a stewed cup of tea or a coffee was all I remember being served at most grounds not now it seems

Its funny i went to watch my little local club play away to Redbridge last week as i didnt fancy going right up to Burnley to watch that poxy West Ham lot !........i must have had at least 5 taps on the shoulder from football pals i havent seen in ages who no longer go to West Ham and follow Redbridge instead.....as you say a lot of good lads have ditched top level footie now.
