My condolences Rich, to you and to your family. Although your dad had a great and long life, it's still your dad and the pain is the same for all of us. Take care and remember the happy times. R.I.P. COYR, let's do it for Richs' dad and for Gerry!

Just had a read of their thread about Gerry Gow which had some nice comments, fair play. Then, I stumbled on to a 'Getting r*vers Championship ready' thread. Boy, do they underestimate how big the gulf in class is between L1 and the Championship / Prem 2! A few seem to think they could survive with their plucky little team as it is because they beat Cardiff reserves and lost to Chelsea. They're mid table in L1 aren't they? Un-bloody- believable. They don't seem to remember that we absolutely destroyed L1 yet really found it hard going at this level. Yes, Burton have done well but they will probably slide due to a very small squad. The Mem as a Championship ground? They really don't learn do they?

Christ, if they ever played us there wouldn't be any of them left!

Gone quiet on here.. LITTLE JOHNNY IS BACK: The teacher asked the class to use the word “fascinate” in a sentence. Molly put up her hand and said, “My family went to my granddad's farm, and we all saw his pet sheep. It was fascinating." The teacher said, “That was good, but I wanted you to use the word ‘fascinate,’ not 'fascinating'.” Sally raised her hand. She said, “My family went to see Rock City and I was fascinated.” The teacher said, “Well, that was good Sally, but I wanted you to use the word ‘fascinate’.” Little Johnny raised his hand, but the teacher hesitated because she had been burned by Little Johnny before. She finally decided there was no way he could damage the word “fascinate,” so she called on him. Johnny said, “My aunt Carolyn has a sweater with ten buttons, but her tits are so big she can only fasten eight!” The teacher sat down and cried.

Shouldn't nave been you fella, I quoted the methane snorter St Andrews sag so have no idea why your name came up. No offence meant.

You've never been in a position for those clubs to be jealous of you have you? Envy, a terrible thing!

Really? Any need for this? I'm a catholic, a male and went to school. Ignorant ****!

3 bloody nil!! Go City!

I can't call this, great drama though.

What if they haven't had bad light so wouldn't have a pre-determined figure?

Wouldn't they 'offer' light to the batting side? No way would Yorkshire take it.

True enough Calculus, still feels wrong though although I can see the logic.

240 at 6 an over. Hmmmm.

Of course, plus if it wasn't affecting Somerset, we wouldn't give a monkeys.

Doing the rain dance but it doesn't appear to be working.

Nothing changes though does it? If it's a draw, we win it? Atherton just said he heard '37 overs', lose 2 for the change of innings, that means 5 or 6 more 'free runs' overs leaving Yorkshire to chase 240ish off 37? I don't see how Middlesex can win.

Once it gets to 40 overs left and Middlesex over 200 in front, I can see the declaration. 40 overs at 5ish an over I reckon.

This is so contrived that it's a joke. The only losers here are Somerset.

I took a day off to go down to Taunton for the last day, typical that the Cidermen won in 3 days. Now glued to the Middlesex v Yorkshire match on tele praying it's a draw. 'Mon the Cidermen.

Anyway http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/soccer?iso=20001028T1645&p0=299&font=cursive Nearly 6,000 days, that's a very long time!

3-1 City through nothing other than rose tinted blind faith. COYR

Just a bit lucky then!! If I were a Walsall supporter, I would not be a happy bunny!

Come on Tommo!

In case you were wondering, my post was dripping with sarcasm. It's what I expect from the most rose tinted of the tunnel dwellers TBH.

Real classy by the methane snorter!
