Indeed. We won the youth cup a few years later (beating Palace in the final!) with the likes of Kewell, Robinson, Woodgate, Jones though if you had asked me at the time I would have said our earlier team of Whelan et al were a better crop of youngsters!
And look at the team they convincingly beat, just shows that no matter how good they are at youth level the step up to first team is huge.
Whelan isn't at Boston anymore, he's at SportingChance. We are going to see him next week :(
I certainly am. Blood and bone marrow.
I am also one of those horrible pestering people who will bug all those fit and able to donate until they do so. There is no good reason for a fit, healthy person not to donate. And the benefits of donation are so far reaching and make such a difference in...
We've booked eleven rooms in one hotel, the poor girl on the phone had no idea what was going on and she said "I don't know why the sudden interest for this one night" So I explained it was for the football and she said "Oh the bar always does well that night"
We don't have to pay until we...
Yeah no kidding! I keep telling my husband he should get me a cleaner so that I have more time to sit around eating bon bons and typing drivel on the internet!
It really get's me about academy pleyers. We have a world class academy (Thanks to Howard Wilkinson) - it has everything and we spent...
Ah, that'll teach me to go do housework and not pay enough attention to the forums! ;-)
We hvae had our fair share of those kind of youth teamers, most of them are doing pretty well in the lower leagues now though so I guess it worked out for them.
We're in the middle of a huge wrangle with...

Are you adding the ingrediants in the right order? I have two bread makers one has dry ingrediants first, the other wants wet ingrediants first.
If you do it the wrong way round you end up with either a really doughy, chewy loaf or a crumbling mess.
You were supposed to say, "No darling I won't go to the football I have already made reservations at XXXXXX (insert swanky restuarant of choice here) for us, I'd much rather spend the time with you."
Tsk tsk. ;-)
I can't believe they didn't tell him and let him home. I wonder if his wife asked them not to, if she didn't and they just didn't tell him that's some screwed up shit.
He gave an interview in Egypt telling of how proud he was of his three children and that family is so important and all the...
My husband is going, he has tickets for all England games and for one game each in the knock out stages and then the final.
Vanity is travelling with the official England party, but she is meant to be working rather than swanning about having fun.
We're all Ireland fans as well! LOL
