Terry Paine. Followed by a large group, Ron Davies, Ivan Golac, MLT, Mick, KK, Reeves,Case, etc etc

RIP. I didn't see Charlie play as he left before my first game in '56. On a happier note, happy birthday for tomorrow, Bill!

He was often misunderstood, not so much for what he had to say but for the way he put his views across. As English is not his mother tongue, he often chose his words/sentences in a style that came across as presumptuous.

I had coffee with him this morning.

THE most wonderful c/f! He gave me such pleasure to watch him and in my mind the best header i have seen in my 57 years of watching football. RIP Big Ron.

Hmm, I might not go that far but I am one of his many fans!

Sorry, I have had router problems, hence no reply.

Can you give more details, perhaps in a PM? I need an adult/oap plus a u17.

I really wish you hadn't posted that! You do know that Old Nick reads this forum and he is now bound to bring that in! Bu&&er.

You little fibber! You told me that the Italian CB we were signing on 1st July was moving in with you. Make your mind up!

Seen something bigger/better/nearer/further and so on and so on and so on and so on. Well, you get the idea. As for Minty and his 2+2 = 49, bloody teachers have a lot to answer!

So sorry to read this news. My thoughts and prayers with the family.

To carry on the moan, is Lee Probert the worst Ref in the Prem?

Thank goodness I don't have to watch this team more than twice a season! A team of bruisers and with very little football ideas. Just my opinion.

A draw at Spurs, hmm you must have seen something on Saturday to give you hope? Enjoying the progs?

Spurs 0 S/land 1 Stoke 1 2 from 9

He had a poor game overall and was very inconsistent. He did get all three red cards 100% correct.

Hmm Boruc 5, Mean! He saved us from being 3 down at HT

I must have missed that been said/written! On the club site, Echo or Daily Mail?

Norm's Postman, "Can see us winng 3-0 today! You?" Norm, "Hmm, I would take a point, I just hope the players are'nt thinking about the summer holidays!" We were thrashed all over the park by a far better side, torn to shreds by Lukaku and Long up front and Olsson and crew tied us up in knots up front! 0-3, this should have been the score at half time, never mind 90 minutes. Sadly, one or three Saints players need to move on at the seasons end. Only players to earn their crust today? MS & AC

Happy anniversary for tomorrow. How many years? (or should I not ask).

I joined the (large)queue at 08.40. At 09.40 I had to leave as I was taking my granddaughter for her measles injection as her mum was ill. I'm disappointed to miss the game but really pleased that we will have a full house to send the players off after a fine first season in the Prem. Looks like Firstrowsports again! Simon, there was no need to justify why you were selling your tickets imo.

More than happy with the point.

My evening was going so well until you wrote that it was 50 years ago! Thanks for making me feel old all of a sudden!

[h=1]I apologise unreservedly, I really have no excuse. I'm going through a childish period at the moment (lasting the past 66 years).[/h]
