    This poor performance against the Maltese made me cross.

    And if we lose to Switzerland when we next play them, i'll be really cheesed off...

    (That was a pretty awful game last night though - reminiscent of the fare served up during my occasional foray to A.G. over the last few years)

  2. An interesting point.

    I'm an irregular visitor to A.G. these days but what i have noticed over the last few seasons is just how many people sitting around me seem to be more interested in what is on their mobile phones and/or going down to the concourse for 'refreshments' a good 5+ minutes before half time and coming back a good 5 minutes after half time.

    This might well be a reflection of the dire football match being played out on the pitch but i always think it rather strange that quite a lot of people pay good money to go to a football match and then seem more interested in everything but the football.

    Albeit for a slightly different reason than you're suggesting, i came to the same sort of conclusion a good while back.

    Are you reintroducing bar maids in basques on a Friday lunchtime?🤪😂

    I'm fairly sure that some 25 years or so back, the bar maids were not only in basques but topless as well on a Friday night.

    The only reason i remember this (ahem) is that the place was so packed we only ever managed to get one or maybe two rounds in before heading off to watch the bands playing at The Fleece.

    Ok tomorrow is Today.

    So who has been announced A new head coach ?

    I am so excited 

    The original poster meant today's tomorrow, not yesterday's tomorrow (or was it tomorrow's tomorrow - not sure now?) so you'll just have to reign in that excitement for a bit longer..........

    A bit bored today, but then I heard this on the radio. In between the next manager chat. A great many will never have heard of the song, so sorry. And sorry for the artistic licence that stretches it a bit. But you can get the idea. 

     

    There's a slippery snake that's going 'round

    Turnin' the joint upside down, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja

    He's an old ex-pro that's went away

    Now he's back, no one's safe, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja

    "If you wanna squeal", said the BC Board

    "We can make a deal, make it worth your while"

    So he told them all and in return

    He got Nige sacked and Dave transferred

    And the maximum security

    Even after plastic surgery

    "So, go on and squeal", said the BC Board

    "We can make a deal, make it worth your while"

    There's a slippery snake that's going 'round

    Turnin' the joint upside down, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja

    He's an old ex-pro that's been away

    Now he's back, no one's safe, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja

    After all the talk, then they wired him

    And he took a walk with his previous friends

    And they joked about the good old days

    And he recorded it on a reel of tape

    He caught the mug who did the conditioning

    And the man in charge of training

    So the BC Board, they rewarded him

    'Cause they like a guy who will stab a friend

    There's a slippery snake that's going 'round

    Turnin' the joint upside down, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja

    He's an old ex-pro that's been away

    Now he's back, no one's safe, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja

    So he told them all and in return

    He got Nige sacked and Dave transferred

    He got a spankin' new identity

    And a condo' down in Guernsey

    He bought a plane, a boat and jewellery

    But he couldn't buy any company

    There's a slippery snake that's going 'round

    Turnin' the joint upside-down, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja

    He's an old ex-pro that's been away

    Now he's back, no one's safe, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja

    Good song;

    Lads it's true.

    Honestly, these kidz. Won't someone tell them that Brexit should be used in relation to reclaiming sovereignty of your half of the pitch and getting all the opposition players out of your half.

    A "Brexit clearance" would be more apt.

    Wouldn't a Brexit clearance be one where the ball doesn't go as far as intended or in the direction intended?

    Anyone else having issues with it, bloody hopeless service recently.  All of Mrs Maesknoll’s historic emails have gone and I am once again without emails being delivered today.

    Who is a decent email provider if I decide to move to another?

    Snap.

    Virgin Media are a nightmare to be with and especially to deal with.

    Only problem is, there's probably not much to choose between all of the providers........

    See your point on one level, game itself but two trams on the pitch.

    On that note, I must say yes we know Man City can blow anyone away but the way Inter were spoken of by the English media or a lot of it in the build-up as some sideshow, easy etc etc- well it was far from easy or a walkover. Bale tipped Man City to win 5-0 e.g. but in a final and vs a side very well coached, with 5 or 6 talented individuals that felt presumptuous.

    No wonder the game didn't get going - all a bit too crowded out there on the pitch.....
