I believe it was a FA Cup tie v Walsall, who were are bogey side at the time. As the Walsall forward broke through, Geoff threw himself at his feet, clutching the ball and taking the kick on his head.
No 'elf & safety back then, geoff got up and cleared the ball and, as the Albion attecked the...
2015 will be the year when I reach 60, oh dear.
When I was young, we used to wonder if we'd reach 1984 and if the world would be like the famous film. Once that was passed, i wondered if I'd reach 2000.
To be honest, life changes gradually, sometimes for the better, sometimes not.
Not read the whole thread but what does Mr Bony think about it? it's not taking the 'p', more a tribute.
Somebody earlier asked about what if a black man played as white? Didn't Lenny Henry do this in a film once? is he racist?

Very much like the post above.
Some managers are unlucky but I wonder what we do all week. The tactics are baffling, we are not as fit as our opponents and always fade, out freekicks are nearly all miss than hit.
He's shown nothing to make me think he can turn it around, I can't think of...
So may I add my own driving tale from yesterday? Driving home on a narrow road in Bevendean, where cars park on one side, I was a passenger in a new Kia (just a few months old) when a car coming the opposite way decided not to wait a few seconds but to plough on through, scraping the side of...
We need a big man up front in the squad. Doubt he'll be a 90min player but pleased to have a recognised forward and maybe, like Bridge, he'll find his mojo and the joy of playing again.
