.....ok, all present and correct - heres' to us getting the result we all are wanting SOOO much on here, go, you Golden Bhoys go, if you can come up with the bizz just one more time and play with the drive, determination and never-say-die attitude you've shown so often this season, we'll do this - and if the Pickler can in the last minute, with his grossly mis-shaped, deformed, bulbous, shining Lord of the Rings orc-esque bonce power the winner in, I personally will play "Dance With The Devil" (Cozy Powell classic drum solo release as any fule kno) on his perspiring, perfect, pulsating pate with my comedy shoes, if he'll let me, of course - COYY........

PS:

......enjoy the game all of you who can't make it up there, wherever you watch it on telly, especially Phil_Chelstongull.......

Probably be heaving, as will the Nest if theyre showing it. Squeeze yourself in though

Have a good one wish I could join you and hopefully that nagging feeling wont last for long.
One question what does COYY actually mean as I googled it out of curiosity and got zilch other than an abreviation for coach of the year.

West London/Bucks/Surrey exodus of 7 planned via Beaconsfield Services around the 2 o'clock mark. Just watched the "Final Session" and Bev videos on Player. How dare that Turner say we can't do any better. 'Ave it.

Yellow Army

Torquay shirt on, into the office for a few hours and then up the road to the only pub in Chicago mad enough to show the game. Hoping to beat my record of having three locals genuinely interested in the game during the first leg (awarding bonus points if any of them show up again...)

Right Here We Go Then .....

I'm off to the Albert Bar


Just got time to quote a certain Lando Calrissian ........... "Well Here Goes Nothing......"

Enjoy x
