  1. Gordon kicked Phillips? Indeed he did.
  2. Very sloppy but not actually responsible for us not winning. But he could have been.
  3. And they seem to be proud about it.
  4. Both he and Stephens.
  5. In the centre of the penalty area. Right on the penalty spot.
  6. Just being better than Adams is enough.
  7. All this TV hype is making me vomit.
  8. It’s a foul on the defender. WTF has gone wrong with football at this level?
  9. I once asked Richard Hall how much the crowd affected the team on the pitch. He said that they were too busy concentrating on the game to really notice it.
  10. It can be arranged with tidal ponds that power is always available but the environmentalists have bigger power.
  11. It was that wild slash at the ball in the first half that finally settled it for me. Either hammer it low across goal or at least get a shot on target but that effort was woefully amateurish.
  12. Only the immediate neighbours joined in. For the rest of the crowd it was an unnecessary distraction. It takes a lot to get the geriatrics in the Kingsland to join in but it can happen. Banging a board won’t do it.
  13. You don’t get an atmosphere going by banging some boards. All that does is drown out any real enthusiasm from the rest of the stadium. Besides, how is anyone else supposed to join in?
  14. The substitutions should have been made much earlier, around 75 minutes or so. Aribo for Smallbone was an obvious one to make. Sulemana was his usual expensive ineffective performance and should never have started.
  15. They are a lottery in the sense that the odd mistake, misjudgement or fluke has a bigger influence than it would over a longer run of games. One shirt tug against Derby, for example, ended up being the difference between us.
  16. A 5ft 9 inch player unmarked on the penalty spot with a stooping header.
  17. Although that would go a long way to making up the goal difference.
  18. Thanks for this. You have no idea how sad it makes me feel. In today’s game there is no chance of ever seeing such magic again.
  19. These rules are there in case you need medical attention and have to stay in the country beyond your intended departure date.
  20. Being thick, but another example of Brexit Buggery.
  21. We all know that football didn’t exist before the Premier League.
  22. I never knew that bednarek was a Welsh word meaning ‘brick shithouse’
  23. Another synonym is ‘Fart’
  24. "It's being so cheerful that keeps me going" Mona Lott
