Ah of course, of course... "I was impressed with the club's ambition and the facilities" Translates as: "I was impressed with the salary increase and their ambition to further increase my salary and contract length regardless of my performance"
It's like nothing else on Earth. I went to one game where a man called Dave spent the entire coach journey scratching his nuts next to me while generally moaning about the team. These were pre internet days but I reckon Dave is on this forum still doing the same thing.....
We will try something ridiculously brave on Saturday and go for it in the first 20. We will go 2-0 up and it will be beautiful to watch. The second half will be a serenade of Oles as we see out the game and the 40 point mark is not so the players can go on holiday again in April.
you poor, poor sod. I wouldnt wish that on my worst enemy. Those coaches contain the utter dregs of humanity.
My brother and I went to Hillsborough for the League Cup match years back on a club coach. It was approximate to Level Four of Hell in The Divine Comedy,as was the game!
I've just received an email from the club asking if I would host a young player. What as?: Novelty condiments dispenser? Page turner for my text books? Bespoke ball boy? Mr IBB is quite keen to have a tame tea boy as where the kitchen starts he stops! I'm nervous already for this game,a bad sign. I don't normally fret until Thursday,as 'I never could get the hang of Thursdays!'
Why should he have to live in Yorkshire or speak in a certain way? He’s done alright for himself after what sounds like a tough start in life so he’s entitled to live where he wants. Social mobility is probably something that should be encouraged. I for one am glad to have escaped the slums of Watford after serving 23 years in north Watford. I ain’t going back to that life, no sir.
It will be interesting to see when our glass jaw gets smashed in this game. Will we go early or settle for the usual late knockout
I plan to retire up North. No idea why people give them grief. Fresh air. Nice people. Good house prices. What’s not to like?
Lack of proper biscuits Worry that electricity hasn’t reached that far north yet. Inability to go to a Waitrose. Abuse of the Queen’s English I could go on
Maybe we should all go to Harpenden to cheer on IBB. Should be more fun than watching Watford's defence up north. And if it all goes pear-shaped in Harpenden, we could have fun hurling abuse
Oh do! We have a most exhilarating team: Me and Fabby,I call her that as she plays in a Fabrice Santoro style. Nursie,our lawyer who is a hybrid of Victoria Wood/Perry Mason and El Faggo,who used to play football with Teddy Sheringham and is ****-a-hoop having just won £750 on that chubby chap winning the golf. Third pair is OGF and The Spreadsheet,who is only happy after a nine hour deuce court,cross court rally. Harpenden will have lots of terribly nice ladies who have just returned either from Waitrose,ski ing or St Tropez or possibly all three. There will be tea but no Hogg.
I'd like Cathcart to start this one alongside Prodl. Maybe 3 centre backs and drop Janmaat. With an extra defender and some keep ball we might get a point. Like 0-0.
