Well, that went well! How often can you make it next season?

The lads did well. I don't understand what all the whining has been about all season 

I'll try and make more effort next season.

No knead for all these puns.

Alright don't get a cob on

I am coming to AG on Saturday for my first (and last!) home game of the season. Saw the rewards reminder and thought I'd have a browse on Saturday - only to see the date. What's that all about.

He was there all through the '80s as well. Their best table was the one by the door, so the older guys who wanted to play for money would try and kick us off it if we got there first.

He would come over and try to tell them off which was nice, but also a bit annoying as we knew that if we held out long enough they would give us anything up to a tenner to move. An hour of lights was only 60p so we could make a nice profit.

I used to dread that table as everyone who was waiting for a table would sit around it on those plastic seats watching my pathetic attempts at snooker

Looks like I chose the wrong semi-final to watch 

That was exactly what I said to Mrs RR.

It was a difficult choice as I wanted Palace to beat Chelsea but working in South London I don't particularly like them

I used to go in there mid-90s - one of the blokes that ran it wore glasses that were tied round his head with string to keep them on I recall

You used to enter through a small smoked filled room where a group of older blokes would be playing cards. There was a character who would occasionally appear whilst you were playing and in true Del Boy style place a suitcase on the table, open it and ask if you wanted anything inside. 

Used to play as a lad at the old Paragon snooker hall above a shop on North Street. That had some characters.

Don't have time to get invested in the whole world championship but get more involved as the final approaches usually on the May bank holiday.

Well.........I'm going to my first match at AG since covid...so a win against Hull would be much appreciated lads.

Hi all, me and my pops are heading to this one for our annual ‘away day’. Our tickets arrived today and aren’t next to one another, in general is this an issue or do people tend to sit where they like when away? 

Are they now sending out tickets by post again?

Accrington Stanley 

Hidden in plain sight a bit like Stevenage

Taking this onto Norse mythology then Scunthorpe.............there may be another name in their though 

Also Brentford

Crewe Alexandra

And of course for our Korean following....Queens Park Rangers 

Does anyone know how frequently roof installed solar panels should be cleaned?

I have been thinking about solar panels but we have a large oak tree nearby which drops large amounts of honey dew (sticky stuff) during early summer. If I need to get someone in to clean them every year then the cost/benefit ratio becomes much less attractive.

Can't honestly think of anything that I would want to do less than spends thousands of pounds to watch England play in Qatar.

Maybe Disneyland !

Hmmmm.... watching England in Disneyland... would that be for the Mickey Mouse cup?

When you select a seat on the website I think the green area at the bottom of the screen represents the pitch so that numbers increase away from the pitch. However, a bit like you I have not been to AG for a while so whilst that to me seems logical I can't say for sure.

I had seen that the tickets for Hull are cheap - is this some special end of season offer?

Still coming for us are they ?

Possibly it's just that it's a very circuitous route via Divisions 5, 4, 3, 4....... 

They may just be taking the scenic route.

Currently Wycombe 5 - Cheltenham 4 with 4 goals in 5 minutes!

Semenyo not getting the fouls that Boro we’re getting off him in the first half. Annoyingly inconsistent this ref!

Not heard that said this season yet 

Anyone else getting nervous about the amount of confidence being shown on here tonight?

What is this sourcery.......scoring just after half time. Surely we generally let one in.

Can I relax a bit now?

Anyone remember these? Given that we did not have a car I cannot remember how I managed to get the complete set.

And because of that the BBC decides that no one is interested in Final Score as no one pays any interest in the EFL so cancels it 

Beginning to think I should add this to my bucket list of one of life's "experiences"
