@werdermouth @ken @selwyn @diasboro..... ..and you try telling that to the young folk today....

What a terrible thought Werder, sadly so that we could be forgiven for thinking the orange one might do such a thing. All the same, no doubt that as h...

RR you have disappointed me, immensely. I honestly believed that you had turned the corner and understood your important role in life to report on B...

@lenmasterman Some good post that was Len. Each and every one of us has some value and we should never let anyone or anything persuade us otherwis...

@werdermouth Improvised meals Werder? Would that be a Diet of Worms then?

Ah Werder, thank you for another colourful opening... blue, red, pink, whatever next....I could sing a rainbow! Forest up next then and, as you ...

And you too Bob

Thanks for another winning report RR. We were early in bed last night and I must confess to turning over and going to sleep at half time. So, deligh...

@k-p-in-spain Best wishes to Mrs P. Hope she continues her good recovery. She has had more than her fair share of health concerns in recent times.

Thanks for another great starting piece Werder. All that blue had me humming away imaginatively on a a Mr Blue theme.... Hey there Werder you Writ...

Sorry to hear your news Ken. Hope you recover quickly and we look forward to seeing a revised pen-picture of you sporting a full set!

Echoing the thanks of everyone RR. I have to say that your match report is the first thing I look out for following a match. How great for you now to ...

A long read, but a worthwhile read and power to Judith Gates.

I loved the notion of someone plugging the wrong Newport Bridge into the sat nav... Actually, you might have hit on how NW calculated the differenc...

EIO 🥳

I'm inclined to do along with the "If it ain't broke don't fix it" approach espoused by GHW, with Roberts in if Cap'n Britt can't start. I don't thi...

Good call Jarkko

Thanks for the Tchaikovsky piece Ken. It is funny, but in my head I always had that theme (as used for Look North in the day) as being written by Grei...

I, for one, am very sorry to see Pears leave. Good luck to him. It is, I think, another astute signing by a certain Boro favourite....

Werder, you have come back from the international break on absolutely fizzing form. That is a great piece. I love your ability to fit our Covid bubbl...

Yes indeed they (The Nice) did GHW. Later as ELP there was also Aaron Copland's Fanfare for the Common Man, a rare hit single for them.

@ken on Mussorgsky. I was introduced to Mossorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition through Emerson Lake and Palmer's interpretation in a live album reco...

Still not enough to get us included in the vote for the future of the game.. All the same, not too bad a showing for the three NE teams, and especia...

That brings back a memory Ken. I know the music from The Student Prince, my parents had the LP of the film sound track. I did love that particular son...

I agree Werder. This all ultimately falls out of the breakaway Premier League whose founding father's sole objective was to ring fence more of the T...

@grovehillwallah I ha e sympathy with your sentiments GHW but the trouble is without any I come I to the game, many more clubs will go to the wall....

Interesting piece Werder. To be honest with you, I can't see professional football surviving the way it is while Covid plays out. It could be mor...

@ken Ever since studying for my O Level in music under John Potter, himself a very talented jazz pianist, at The College in the 70s, Smetana's symp...

Spot on RR

Thanks RR for another great report. I often as not do not get to see the game, but somehow after reading your reports I can convince myself I did. P...
