Crumbs, how many on here know who Willy Pope was? But yes, there are not many Willys in today's learning establishments? Sorry, maybe I should rephrase ....
When I used to stand in the North Stand in 1965 at 15 years old I could never have dreamt my football team could play like this. So many years shuffling between Div 3 and Div 2, then Div 4. The early 80's another false dawn. In my 70's now and finally beating teams like Chelsea who I queued...

Very impressed with Brentford. Bossing Leicester completely. They would give us a tough game if they get through. Hope Potter's insisting that whole squad watches so they don't go with that "only a championship side" attitude.
I've taken to binge watching during lockdown like never before. Watched every series of 'Line of Duty' in about two weeks. But 'The Serpent' is different; I find the early episodes are so tense it's difficult to binge on, especially if I watch just before bedtime. I lived through the 60's but...
