Oh now there is a question ! It was the Notts Forest goalkeeper whose name I'm trying hard to remember..............Mark Crossley. Edit Which has already been answered, a bl**dy simple thread made very difficult
-
The next question now I have joined this thread is is there actually a question awaiting an answer :smt102 Anyway, regardless the next question is can anyone compile a Saints team consisting only of Scottish player ? Pretty easy I suggest.

If England weren't going to South Africa...

There was no chance of them every winning the appeal. Fortunately France have a Manager who doesn't actually manage the team, a few of the older players like Henry do ! -

Yep, you're not wrong there ! Holland every time. -
Just a couple more... 4.50 - Chepstow - Mr Maximas - e/w@.12/1 (General) It's far from certain that many of these will appreciate the step up to 12 furlongs and, on breeding, that could also be said about Mr Maximas. However he caught the eye staying on over a mile on his handicap debut at Nottingham in April and, in doing so, gave the impression that middle distances could suit. He has the physical scope to progress this season and he should come on for that first race in sven months. He has started handicap life on a lowly mark and, although the yard could be in better form, they have had big priced winners in the past. The selection has the advantage of not having to travel far and, in the current temperatures, that could be a blessing 5.10 - Ripon - We'll Deal Again - e/w.@ 8/1 (General) Strictly at the weights We'll Deal Again has his work cut out to beat Kelly's Eye on a line through Hoof It. However that could be misleading because the selection was making his seasonal reappearance and was hampered by a slow start over a fast five furlongs. Against race fit rivals he did well to finish where he did, showing good mid race pace in the process. Prior to that race he had been seen over distances from 6-8 furlong but he has plenty of speed as he showed when finishing third in a C/D Maiden last season. This is only his second season racing and a mark of 66 should be within his compass.

A few I fancy for Tuesday: Ripon 2.10 Dream Boy@9/4 Trainer Kevin Ryan has a 25% strike-rate with his juveniles at this course and Jamie Spencer is an eye catching booking. Chepstow 2.20 Rojo Boy@2/1 ( General) 2 runs to date, showed a big improvement last time out in a very decent race at York. Despite carrying top weight looks to have a strong chance with Millyluvstobouggie the obvious danger. Lingfield 2.30 Reckless Reward @13/8 ( Stan James) Seems sure to come on from debut outing and this Richard Hannon trained colt definitely looks the one to beat here. Ripon 3.40 Reel Buddy Star ew@14/1 (General) Looks far too big a price for a horse whose 2 wins have both come over this trip and steps up from 7f on both starts this season. Lingfield 4.00 Warning Song ew @33/1 A bit of a longshot to say the least! Showed little on seasonal debut but placed on 5/6 starts last season. Redden is a clear and worthy favourite but at 6/4 I'd rather take a punt on Warning Song albeit to small stakes. Hexham 9.05 Flying Doctor NAP @5/4 Not a great price but is definitely the one to beat with 3 wins and a 2nd from 4 starts this term. Looked to have fair a bit in hand when winning last time out and not surprisingly his trainer is very positive about his chances today. Good luck all, Chris

Yep, I was really impressed by Marine Commando in the 2.15, won with plenty in hand I reckon.
-
I had noticed, certainly every time you've tipped him. Coincidence or not !?
-
Indeed we did Frankie ! Not sure Stevo actually tipped anything though, too busy mocking the afflicted !? The 5.15 at Carlisle was won by Chicamia at 125/1, well done to anyone, anywhere who was on that ! Chris

Lol, Usain Bolt has got nothing on him !

Mick's too busy with his horses!

He already has TBH ! Keegan and Channon both scored 21 goals, Mick played fewer games though- 46 to KK's 61 I think it was. Bobby Charlton: 106 Caps 49 Goals Gary Lineker: 80 Caps, 48 Goals Jimmy Greaves: 57 Caps, 44 Goals Michael Owen: 88 Caps, 40 Goals Tom Finney: 76 Caps, 30 Goals Nat Lofthouse: 33 Caps, 30 Goals Alan Shearer: 63 Caps, 30 Goals John Vivian Woodward: 23 Caps, 29 Goals Steve Bloomer: 23 Caps, 28 Goals David Platt: 55 Caps, 27 Goals

The "Of course, stop being silly......" in bold letters as the post heading is a big clue that I already had
