Erithacus Posted March 13, 2020 Report Share Posted March 13, 2020 All Toolstation games are off now! They will review in a fortnight's time. Well that's stuffed me tomorrow then. Looks like some gardening if dry or back to doing the front room. Could even chance my arm at some shopping - if they are allowing customers.

Northern Red Posted March 13, 2020 Report Share Posted March 13, 2020 5 hours ago, Northern Red said: It appears to be down to individual leagues to decide what they're doing. In this part of the world the Northern Premier and the North West Counties are all still on this weekend at least. Chester v Boston for me tomorrow. Now off. I'll find something else local.

AppyDAZE Posted March 13, 2020 Report Share Posted March 13, 2020 In answer to the OP and the question.. Start praying? Not religious by any means, but funny how all of us still "pray" about things when we start to get worried about stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special offer to my wonderful OTIB friends - only £5 per roll. £10 for the general public £15 for Rovers fans I wonder if Gibbo, Gibbo, Gibbo, has still got some left from the thousands of big rolls loobbed towards his goal from the East End back in the day? … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Horse With No Name Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 5 hours ago, downendcity said: Mrs Downend has suggested bedroom activities on Saturdays and midweek to fill the void, although I have told her that I really need a full pre-season to manage Saturday-Tuesday fixtures week in, week out. She did ask if I knew what my identity was, so I showed her my passport as a reminder. Im expecting her to concentrate on a strong defence, as she's spent many seasons honeing this tactic. I plan to counter with a high press and try to play down the flanks as she will be expecting a frontal attack. 45 minutes each way with a shoot out if we are all square after 90 minutes. Im just wondering whether Mrs D will come out on top in what will surely be a low scoring affair. My missus has just announced she is closing her borders for a month.

New Dazzler Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 A few weeks ago 4 music started to show repeats of Sabrina The Teenage Witch, which I loved in the late 90s as my sons were really into it, so I set it on my V plus box as a series link, so have about 30 episodes to watch!

ExiledAjax Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 Board games are a good idea if you're inside with the family. There's an especially good one available now.

Downendcity match day thread: My home form is predictable and lacking in attacking flair but has got results. Im thinking of picking Kasey Palmer as I don't think Mrs D could cope with his unpredictability and the excitement he could bring. Also I think KP could last the full 90 minutes, while I usually need a bit of a rest after the warm up and lack much pace these days.

Mrs D watched Athletico in the week and using similar shithouse tactics , feigning injury and headaches to draw sympathy from the ref. One attempt early on but VAR confirmed it didn't cross the line.

Friends were due to go on a once in a lifetime world trip in a weeks time. First stop was New Zealand but they've now closed the borders and its 14 days self isolation. They tried other routes including Fiji to Australia and even overnight train journeys but so many countries are now closing borders. Now cancelled to next year. My son was due for a holiday in Southern Spain but thats now scuppered as of this morning. We're booked for 14 days in Sicily and Sorrento in June - that'll be off as well no doubt. And now the bloody football is off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total muppetry out here in the Philippines. 80 odd confirmed cases and the pillock in charge grounds all national flights and declares a curfew from tomorrow between 8pm and 6am. I despair at the lack of brain power in charge around the world. King Boris of the World anyone? The only sensible leader out there as far as I can see.
