@clive-hurren - Yorkshire won today at Cardiff and are therefore 15 points ahead of Middlesex with one game to play. Only losing points for a slow ov...
@jarkko - I like to see a bit of optimism. Especially when I feel some doubts... It's a sort of antidote to doubt.
The burning question on this blog is whether it is harder is to predict what the weather in the UK will be, or what the result will be in the Sunderla...
The more I think about it, lamp post must be the correct version.
@jarkko - Complaining about the weather is a defining British characteristic. Like drinking tea, and apologising for everything (who hasn't accidenta...
@pedro - I will keep my fingers crossed for BORO.
@k-p-in-spain - I almost ALWAYS get the kick-off times wrong! Yep, it says 12.30pm on the calendar in my hallway and I did look at that before typing...
@werdermouth - There must be a comedy script lurking in there, just begging to be unearthed. Do you remember all of those Brian Rix farces from the 1...
I was camping at Leyburn, directly opposite the Tennants' Auction House, overlooking the valley and Middleham with its Castle below. Obviously I had ...
@powmillnaemore - That would be a novel approach but it's difficult to imagine it would end up worse than a 0-5 spanking, so it might be worth a try! ...
The best thing about the Stoke City game was the Starter by @werdermouth. It might also serve to show that Possession is a false god. Possession is...
@exmil - We're all behind you. I can't really get my fingers to cross (maybe too short and stubby, so I can get the middle fingers to lay alongside an...
It's good to see you on here again, Si. And i look forward to your future contributions. I have also been away for a while (not as long as Si, but ...
The Leeds match is live on SkyTV - yippee!
Hello, chaps! Currently at a campsite at Beadnell, on the Northumberland Coast. Maybe Edinburgh and/or its environs next week. Football seems a li...
@andy-r - I make that to be as follows for me, if I have this correctly: Sunderland (A) 21.09.24 Coventry (H) 02.11.24 Burnl...
@original-fat-bob - I am happy to join in the rota again. If people are prepared to read it, I'll write it... But please leave me out for the first...
HELLO AGAIN, FELLOW DISABORIANS! I realise I have been exercising a bit of radio silence recently. I have seen the thread about people putting thems...
Good afternoon, gentlemen. Just checking in. No news from me, and no rumours to disperse. I have just been getting on with other things for a week ...
@exmil - A Man with a Plan! Normal activities in 2 months means you'll be up and ready (after your pre-season as mentioned by Jarkko) in good time fo...
@exmil - If you have any questions worrying you before you see the consultant, write the questions down and take the note/aide memoire with you. I dou...
@jarkko - I have a bottle of the Lagavulin 16yr old whisky. Really peaty. I'm not sure it will scare The Midge away, but it will numb the bites.
