Lots of careless play up front. Otherwise we could be 3 or 4 in front. We talk about that final ball. Well I reckon it's only the final one, be...
@forever-dormo Yet, say any of those things to the kids of today and they give you a funny look. What's the matter with them.
We have lots of relatives with Hull connections. I've also been there for work and my Dad was stationed at Spurn Point during the war. I've always f...
@original-fat-bob And it's a pleasure to have such a refuge away from the bonkers world, where we can all share a totally irrational, and mainly h...
I've just got my copy of AV's book The Games That Shaped The Boro and I've been dipping in and out. If we're a bit concerned about a brittle def...
I reckon we're the first away team to score 2 goals at Elland Road since 6 Aug. Little victories.
A few weeks ago, we'd have seen a lineup with that many new signings in it and shuddered. I think it's a testament to MC's coaching and man manageme...
Wow! More detailed analysis may follow
Having reported my sighting of Ryan Giles in an ADSA car park, I was wondering about starting a series, perhaps called The lives of the Rich and Famou...
@forever-dormo I once saw him in ASDA car park in Darlington. My attention was drawn because my initial reaction was to wonder what a kid was doing...
@martin-bellamy Yes. I was feigning not watching Bake Off too, but just caught enough to tell my wife "There's Ryan Giles"
@selwynoz There's a tremendous amount of insight on this thread and especially on your starter about Leicester's style of play and how we might stan...
@Powmill-Naemore Brilliant memories about the marvel of watching an entire team wearing green shirts. Even more memorable for me was the sight of ...
@original-fat-bob Well that wasn't the answer to the Howson/Barlaser question I was hoping for. Having seen it with you own eyes, or at least 60 ...
@malcolm Considering the injuries and suspension, that lineup doesn't look too weak. The key question may be how well Howson and Barlaser can work ...
@mw-in-darwin Very interesting stats about the use of substitutes in the 73/74 season. The whole modern art of the tactical substitution was only...
@mw-in-darwin Sorry, you got there before me. So not a false memory then. Maybe there's still hope.
@original-fat-bob I feel as though the assistant manager who used to sit next to Jack Charlton on the bench was Ian MacFarlane, but I can't find an...
Looking at the current list of absentees, it must run to at least 8 missing, if you include injuries, illness and suspension. My mind floats back to a...
@original-fat-bob My wife and I visited Norwich for the first time ever last year. Not Carrow Road, just the city. It was even better than the pict...
@original-fat-bob Sorry if I'm getting confused in my codger years, but I thought the mountainous trek was carried out in the foothills and beyond ...
I've only seen the highlights of yesterday's game and I realise that they are the best bits, and that the effect of that can be to turn up the red on ...
@powmillnaemore I wouldn't say I out did you. If anything I'd say the half Lyke Wake Walk would go in the debit column rather than stand as a credit...
I'm in awe of Werder's and Clive's exploits. I didn't think I'd be able to join in this conversation, but since I did one and a half Lyke Wake Walks, ...
@werdermouth This is superb. Thank you very much for conceiving it and then putting it together. My windows version worked straight away, but th...
An Apology Yesterday I asked who's fans were having the most fun. I thought I'd considered all aspects of the relative merits of losing out on p...
I wonder who's fans are having the most fun - Burnley, Luton, Sheffield United or Middlesbrough.
@lenmasterman Cliff Mitchell must be turning in his grave
Well that was very enjoyable. The performance of Engel seemed like a metaphor for the story of the whole team, morphing gradually from a nervous, tent...
@k-p-in-spain Thanks. I think the Cardiff match went up on the live stream site later than usual. At least I'm pretty sure it wasn't there yesterda...
