Down the pub, down the pub, down the pub... er... Down the bar, down the bar...

I don't think Clyne's a bad player but we (as a team) have got to cut out the silly mistakes which invite pressure... It's not as if Villa aren't hoofing out when they need to. Although Fox was a bit static it was what led up to that that counted, plus I don't think Ireland knew where his kick into the ground was going either. Wish Puncheon would occasionally drive outside, or at least not turn back all the time. Interesting sub - Frazer for Fox...

****, **** both Clyne and punch stupid errors in not clearing and a mi**** into the box b*****s

Lallana miles better than last week already, ramirez looking useful..

Both are showing cricket, now footie - wiziwig possibly marginally better pic..

Various advertised - Firstrow etc., haven't checked wiziwig yet. Had a reasonable stream for Swansea on Firstrow.. incidentally their crowd was less than 21k - we really should be able to do better than them..

Please Rickie, oh please....

Is that the FMDP (or should you change that?) or just a blackmail opportunity?;-) Anyway, streams for the Villa game, which is why I came hereabouts?

Well, in Wycombe's case NDAs were signed - article in today's Guardian.. https://socialenterprise.guardian.co.uk/en/articles/social-enterprise-network/football-league-blog/2012/sep/21/fan-ownership-football-club-wycombe

They get it...

Sounds like an AA type statement or it could be just crap PR firm English, but why would they be offering an overdraft to the Football League...?:-) Now that's not what they meant (probably) but where anything PFC is involved I'd read the small print.. Either way, as pointed out, it's just a way of allowing short-term survival. What interest rate will be used for this overdraft?

What an excellent summary. Going back to the question of key-boards - on my last visit to the UK I bought a spare one in Wilkinsons for £5 summat. You wouldn't want to work all day on it, perhaps, but fine for occasional posts on here..

My banana-effing-smoothie - b*****d!:-)

A good summary. My team also lost 6-1 in our first match of the season, and I played the Fox role by tapping in from a metre. (This is still an improvement from my record last season..). We _were_ playing Juventus Ladies who had just come down from the league above and a no. 10 a class above, but we're not too downhearted as there are plenty of weaker teams about. Talking of which, did anyone see Norwich - WH: which was dire the bits I bothered to watch? Even in defeat I had the impression that we played more football than both of them combined.

I see Alpine is here. Wallowing in misery and predictable moans about how we should have strengthened our defence I'd imagine. Don't think I'll be back as I'm not sure I can remain polite. Interesting to see what Adkins does for 2nd half, but I won't be here to discuss it. We've been crap but the Arse movement has been good and it's our midfield for a change that hasn't protected the defence much, even it has needed strengthening. Anyway, might see you later.

me too

Here we go... or here we went... very briefly...

Here we go...

I've currently got a FirstRow stream going for the Norwich-WH game. Not bad quality picture but does anyone agree with me that the football is dire: head-tennis, hoof and hopeless?

I tell my students that punctuation is important. I shall use that as an example of why!

Does that make you feel a bit sheepish?

I'm going back to the Pompey Takeover Saga thread. More accurate, good build up, killer one liners and definitely a winning team. Vastly more entertaining. Milner wasn't as bad as expected but some of the passing from the back was appallling, the finishing somewhat lacking and the team needed an effective striker and some quick feet in the box. Oh....

Well, in his job probably not many people around at some hole in the ground out in the sticks at 6 in the morning.. but I don't dispute your point and as you'll see from my comment above, very professional when it came to safety... It's just that when I see a new BMW I scream to myself "Overheads", and "I'M paying for that"... Oh yes, one occasion when the pool car was unsafe (illegal tyres) they asked if I could take mine. The mileage would have been useful, but unfortunately "it's not insured for business use...". :-)

Have some cheese from Neal's Yard for me... and a pint or two in The market Porter. Both good but bloomin' expensive mind. Try the Stychwood - an unpasteurised stilton type cheese... mmmmmm. Can't remember the beer chasers but it was just a thirst quencher and I wasn't in pre-football anaesthesia mode when I was there.
