But yes a very good read . Also steaming in buy the Arsenal fan ,forgot his name was another good read. Then you had the brimson brothers books absolutely crap ,wrote by a pair of Watford monkeys that I’d never seen at a game. "Steaming In" is by Colin Ward IIRC. Think it includes an Arsenal visit to AG, but I may have books mixed up. I presume you mean Dougie and Ed? I unearthed a few of theirs when I got a load of stuff out of storage a few weeks ago. But yes, awful stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was an utter helmet. Refused to admit he was one of the brothers and when he did admit it he then said the gas had a better 'mob' than City. After more than a few grumbles from my mates he shot off pretty sharpish. Was a great trip though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a pretty reasonable rate for them doesnt he? Seem to remember him coming back from injury, scoring a handful and then getting injured again each of the last few seasons.

One Team In Keynsham Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Well, after Phase 1 was successfully navigated (reasonably dominant qualifying), we have now made it through Phase 2 (success in the pre-tournament friendlies). We are well place for Phase 3: stumbling, dismal opener v our supposed whipping boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it is slightly confusing Keith Allen (Father of Lily) wrote the lyrics for ‘Vindaloo’ and co-wrote ‘World In Motion’’ Kevin Allen was a journalist who made the fantastic diary documentary about Italia 90 from a fans experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some Keynsham lads on there At the very top, under the "O" of "OF" looking to the left and under the "A" looking straight ahead - both thankful to be in the shade (it was a hot old day, if I remember correctly). A great trip, apart from the England matches going tits up!! But as fans of Dutch football since the 70's, we also had tickets for the semi finals (Holland knocking out Germany, in Germany, is hard to beat) and the final (Marco van Basten was quite good, wasn't he?) Gave up following England after that tournament - if only we'd stuck with it for 2 more years...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Ratings: (no half points) Butland 6 did what he had to Alexander Arnold 6 steady debut, for all of praise of his dead-balls, not enough missed the first man Rose 7 much more like it, actually tried to beat his man rather than previous sterile performances. Gets the nod for me. Jones 7 much maligned but thought he had a really tidy game tonight Stones 6 steady, one bad pass, but I like the fact that he looks like he’s developing into a lesder Maguire 6 needed a stormer tonight after Cahill’s last game, and did what was expected. Tough call between him and Cahill. Henderson 7 decent game doing the right things, keeping it moving and played some good passes in final third. Gets the nod for me over Dier Loftus-Cheek 6 (rounded down) got more in his locker and could really impose himself if he believes in his own ability. A star in Qatar. Delph 8 quite excellent tonight, gave us a really nice balance. Headache for Southgate. Vardy 5 so wanted him to do well because I wanted him to partner Kane, but.... Rashford 9 will most likely get the gig after a very good performance tonight. Spoke very maturely afterwards. Team for Tunisia Pickford Trippier Walker Stones Cahill / Maguire Rose Henderson Delph Alli Kane (c) Rashford Although would surprise me if Lingard gets the nod over Delph.

The Caribbean coasts of most Central American states (except Mexico) are largely English-speaking Afro-Caribbeans. I think it's Costa Rica who also have a Rod Wallace in their squad. But not THAT Rod Wallace. Talking of demographics - this thread mentioned how Keith Allen appears on various England football songs, but he's actually Welsh. How does that work??!
