Flipping heck Sheebo. Can you make those photos any bigger?

Glad to hear Bridcutt is going to be ok, hopefully, for Saturday.

I'm hoping a kind mod may be able to re-size as I'm pretty clueless!

Fail. It's Eldrick.


We got 6 right on our table, turns out Ashley Barnes didn't know who JFK was, and asked who Jack Nicholson was. We answered 6 questions right, no thanks for Ash or Spazza. We got 3, 5, 7 amd 10 wrong (they are in the wrong order btw). We had to leave early, who won?

Table 11 won it. Really wish I'd taken more photos, but at the same time, am glad I wasn't too much of a tourist, and just had a chat with very nice people, who just happen to play for the Albion!

I was on table 11
We all won a £10 voucher for the club shop, and a bottle of champagne for the table.

There were £20 worth of vouchers going spare, but a certain scouser on the table took them

 

[The French Mistress]

Spazza took the piss out of Ashley Barnes for being married at the age of 21!
Saw Casper pick Brez up in his arms for a photo (Casper carrying Brez)
All the players seem to really click together, we asked Spazza for his nomination for player of the season, he reckons that within the team most would vote Adam El-Abd.
As has been well said before, he (Sparrow) thinks the away support is amazing, they all had their first trip to the Amex last week and loved it.
Interstingly though, Spazza, (and he reckons a number of other players too) had no idea who Peter Ward is, so he got a full explanation. Told him a bit about REMF, which again he had not heard of, and he suggested he might come to the REMF game, might even get a raffle prize from him.
All the players and other halves are off to London today for a show (Grease I think), just goes to show that they really are together as a unit, it's like going back to 01-02, but IMO I think the players are better this time round.

Generally it seems the players love it here, and they are astounded as to the level of support they get from fans, home, away, and even when it's not at a game, like last night, or when they're out in the supermarket.

Good piece..............thanks !! PS was SSN on all evening ?

Yes it was, you have to hold the players attention for a couple of hours somehow! Even when Gus was doing his speech you could hear the program, think someone finally managed to find the remote and turn it down.

Not bad, 7/10

[thedonkeycentrehalf]

I felt like a schoolboy walking around chatting to the players and collecting photos, and it took me ages to get to sleep as I was buzzing so much.

..and to think you gave up seeing the great Michael Monroe for this. It took me ages to get to sleep but that's because my ears were buzzing so much!

If you read the origiinal post dear old Mendoza spelt it as Tiget! It was just a little late night humour.

Thats why we left early, made it to the Concorde 2 bang on 9.30 and saw the whole (rather short) show. Blimey, even by his standards it was loud, and seriously fast too, had a buzz in my ear all day.

I had not thought of this. Mmmmm. I could have done both.

As good as you'd want, although a bit feedbacky, played a few from the new album, plus a couple of HR numbers, the obligatory Damned tracks. Really good and loud, and bluddy heck, fast as anything, seemed much more so than previous shows. Small crowd though, wouldn't mind going to the London dates to see them too.
