Tolaj or Weir? Either way, same applies to both. Weir made the matchday squad virtually every week but rarely got on the pitch. He played EFL and Pappa Johns cup games then did his knee and was out for ages. I saw Tolaj play a couple of times but he never got a good enough string of games to...
You’d definitely think so, wouldn’t you? He went on loan to Cambridge Utd toward the back end of last season but for whatever reason he’s now back with us. Similarly, Cambridge didn’t renew their loan of Jensen Weir (or we moved him?) and he is now loaned to Morecambe which, although still...
He can show his grandkids all the PL Championship medals he wants; but when they ask him if he ever won the Sussex Senior Challenge Cup, he’s going to have to change the subject pretty quickly.
Commercial Officer - “Gilbert & Rose have agreed naming rights for the West Stand”
Chairman - “But won’t that make it The Gilbert & Rose West Stand? Not sure that’s appropriate”
Commercial Officer - “They’ve agreed ten grand for the season”
Chairman - “How soon can the sign writers start?”
In the depths of winter, the lads in my sons u11s team tend to wear ‘skins’ (lycra leggings and long sleeve tops) under their match kit. Three minutes before kick off at a home match last season, our right back suddenly realised he’d forgotten to put his shorts on before leaving his house, ffs...
Endorse this view (although my over-riding emotion wasn’t one of sadness). But just to be clear, or perhaps to make the same point from an alternative stance, the comparisons I saw during the tournament only went in one direction. If there was a thread on here being used by people genuinely...
Yeah - whatever happened to Randy Banjo?
Did he finally **** off when he realised we didn’t all want to club together to fund his flight from the US for the FA Cup semi final?
As the dad of a 12 year old girl, the other reason I’m more and more attracted to the womens game is the players (all of them - not just the England squad) are great role models. I get more and more concerned by the imbalance in ‘what a women should look like’ images that my daughter is exposed...
But it’s not like the club are actively looking to move him on. I’m sure the club are doing their best to get the optimum outcome from a situation they don’t want to be in. They bought Cucu in on a 5 year contract. Him handing in a transfer request after 11 months wouldn’t have been part of the...
It’s something I’m actively looking at. At £100+ just for tickets (plus the attendant travel ballache), there is absolutely zero chance of me bringing my kids to a PL game at the Amex this season, given the £3,400 rise in energy bills coming in autumn. At present we go to our local League One...
To be honest, I believe it's being done a bit tongue in cheek and to provoke a reaction as the male competitive ego is so notoriously fragile. All the blokes sitting around taking a pop song a bit too seriously and huffing, "yeah, well done and all that....but it hasn't really 'come home' till...
Wow... what a tournament, what a journey, what a final.
Impossible to pick out just one England player of the tournament but Mary Earps and Milly Bright were just immense :bowdown:
100% THIS!
Would I want to take my two kids aged 11 and 12 to Wembley when England men are playing? Not a chance these days.
Would I take them to an England women's game? Absolutely.
