I'll concede. I think Stearman now as well based on the wrist tape I'd not looked at before.

I got all bar one on the quiz and think it looks just like Saville! I'm at odds with myself today...

If I could like that twice I would. It, in a nutshell, explains why for the general legacy fan it isn’t that difficult.

Just checked and it was 77th minute he did that. It definitely felt like a 'sign' but in reality [as the Watford SF proved] there was still plenty of time for us to snatch a defeat

I recall the anxiety shifting when there was an image of Sir Jack on the big screen and he put his thumbs up. About the 80th minute I reckon

I think this is a decent response but not one that remotely applies to 90% of the match going fan base. You refer to the fans who 'simply want to turn up, watch the game and go home' and this strikes me as being along the same lines as Jeff's 'legacy' fan comment. It misses the mark so much. I...

Several teams used to if they stayed at Patshull or the Mount. Most without permission and had their sessions cut short if Ted, the groundsman, caught them.

The headbutt for me. Head butting someone is a red card in any game at any age and any level. Saying that it was 'soft' or whatever description was used to justify a yellow instead of a red by PGMOL is making up new laws on the hoof. I think Attwell was VAR that night as well. Is there a...

I have no idea if Yerson is good enough but anyone of Santi, Dawson and Kilman must be in doubt

I’ve heard the term “super fan” used derogatively about some posters on here previously but I’m putting my head above the parapet here. Those saying that it’s a shit, meaningless end of season game (on here and on social media) aren’t the match going fans I sit with. It’s easy from your...

I think Kilman’s passive nature is indicative of an issue we have as a side. We need a bit more mongrel in us. The incredible amount of cheap bookings we pick up, often early in the match, that then leaves defenders and midfielders in particular afraid of making another challenge is an issue and...

Next time you have a tip can I just wager with you directly and can you then manage the 'bet' going forward on my behalf please?

There is no way that penalty gets given in the other penalty area. You can argue whether it is or isn't all day long, but we all know one team gets it and the other doesn't.

I can't get on the exchanges [long story] and the best I could get with SkyBet was -2.5 and the odds/amount needed to make it worthwhile would have only been worth to cover my relatively small (£10 - £5e/w) initial stake, so I didn't bother. The stake to cover the £220 possible win would have...

Ouch...
