I was there, all those years ago. Haven't seen it on film since.
Difficult to say exactly how far out he was when he started the run. Probably 35-40 yards. Difficult to say how many players he beat. Probably 5 or 6. I remember we won 2-0. Can't remember if it was the first or second goal. ( Got...
Hang on. Fantastic?
The first half of last season, he took a bit of time to get going. He had a good second half of the season. We now have a better replacement, who gets down the line equally well and crosses better. Cucurella is overvalued and overrated and if you don't think that, then I...
For me, the whole of football needs to look at itself re ' gamesmanship ' Otherwise known as feigning, cheating, conning or simulating. There is no honour among thieves. It has reached a level now where certain practices are just accepted as ' part of the game ' Everybody does it because...
We should have had a 4th for the non-referral of the blatant foul on Welbeck at Leicester ( another 2 points down the Swanee ) I know Arsenal received one, the same day as our Palace fiasco.
The apology should cover Mr. Attwell's handling of the whole game. Aside of the disallowed goals and non penalties, he failed to red card Perisic for a two footed assault on Gross. Failed to adminster a second yellow to Hojbjerg after a ghastly, studs down the back of Mac's calves and did...
In over 50 years of support I don't think I have ever been so angry following a game. The whole journey home ( with my son ) was spent recalling bad decisions. We were both spitting feathers. We had totally outplayed them. We were much the better side. We were two goals better than them. A draw...
Forget Bruno.
He has tarnished his legacy forever and any affection for him has long since disappeared. He is just as much a snake as any of the others. He kicked us in the teeth. All this...." he didn't really want to go " is nonsense. As all the horses galloped out of town, he was riding...
Potter makes a simple game more complicated, by trying to be too clever and overthinking too often. This was misconstrued by the media as flexible and deep thinking strategy. They fell for it. They lapped him up. Youngish. English, articulate. New kid on the block. New focus for them. One of a...
Most Polish fans I know are expecting the national team to be built round him. They rate him that highly out there. Rightly or wrongly, they also suggest that his rehab would have been quicker out there than in the UK. They claim that their sports science and medical back-up is superior...
After 58 years of supporting, I guess I have passed 1000 but an actual figure would be difficult to work out. I went 9 successive seasons at the Goldstone without missing a home game once. When marriage, kids and re-location came along, my numbers dropped off quite a lot. Some years ago, I was...
Extraordinary game, still vivid in the memory. The penalty saga made all the more dramatic by Mr Morton's mad sprint to the by-line each time he awarded a spot-kick. Hard to believe it only finished 2-1. Scoreline could have been anything. In the second half it felt surreal that we were still in...
There speaks a man who has never walked along the banks of the Thames and found the partial remains of a once beautiful and protected bird. But....never mind.....keep pouring bucket loads of scorn and wallow gloriously in the swirling waters of your own smugness. Hysterically funny post.
No there isn't, its all wild exaggeration from people like me. These are all honest, law abiding, tax paying individuals, welcomed with open arms by certain people on this forum, whose comfortable lives are far removed from the ugly,sharp end of society and if they and their mates can make some...
