  2. Red Alligator. "Sunny Stockwood" I remember sitting on the wall at the edge of the beer garden at the Concorde pub late 70s during summer. I was back there in 2020 and a few pints in the bar.
  3. Unfortunately, all sports carry risk and when a player in any sport is injured it is not good. However overhead kicks in football will always be great to watch unless it results in an injury of course.
  4. "When we are safe"I think a few others on here will be thinking when we are close to the "play off spots"
  5. I will always remember when Ray Cashley our goalie scored a goal. It was against Hull City in 73. I was at Ashton Gate with my dad, and it was a very cold and foggy night match with high winds. Hull had the advantage in the first half and we had the advantage in the second half. Cash got great distance with every kick in the second half as he had the strong wind behind him. He kicked out from the East End of the ground, and I was with my dad behind the goal in the open end. I remember to this day the ball from Rays clearance bouncing just in front of the Hull goalie, the ball bouncing over his head and the ball going in the net. At first there was some silence and then a fantastic roar as like me this was something different and I think no one actually believed what occurred. We went on to win that night 3-1 and were either second or third in Division two at that time. Booby Gould and the sticks Ritchie were the other scorers for us that night. I did not miss a home match at Ashton Gate that season. I was not yet a teenager that season, and around ten or eleven years old. 73/74 were glorious years, and I will always remember those early years at Ashton Gate in the 70s. I for one am quite excited for a good and solid home win against Hull next Saturday as we are doing well and NP now seems to have all the jigsaw puzzle pieces in place, however there is still more work to go with the current players he has. Next Saturday should a hard fought but a positive win in front of probably 20,000 of you lucky ones attending Ashton Gate. I should be able to live stream the match against Hull and also the Man City one most probably will be live on "be in sports" in OZ.
  6. Pop in for a beer. I also have dry Blackthorn in the fridge. Popular Myalup Beach in the state’s south west offers a perfect opportunity to relax on the pristine white sand and soak up the famous Western Australian sun. Take a dip in the refreshing Indian Ocean or build sandcastles with the children on the beach. Fishermen will enjoy the convenient beach fishing where you can try for popular fish such as Bream, Tailor and Yellow Fin Whiting. Visitors to Myalup Beach can gain a perfect vantage spot on the sand dunes to watch dolphins playing in the ocean just off the coast and witness the magnificent Western Australian sunset. Myalup Beach is a half hour drive from Harvey and two hours drive south of Perth.
  7. Just looking at the betting sites and most are predicting a draw. Sunderland has a positive home record, but it’s nothing to write home about. Out of 15 games, they have only won 6: strangely, they are the better away team. Because of Bristol City’s current streak and because they are not so strong at home, we believe they will draw, which is in the interest of both teams to keep winning. Prediction: Sunderland 1-1 Bristol City. Those of you taking the long trip enjoy yourself and keep safe. COYRedssssss.
  8. The list of names certainly brings back some great memories. There are quite a few from the old 1st division days. All were great players in various years and great history of our club.
  9. Just had to google emphatic. means "expressing something forcibly and clearly" You must of attended a better school than me. Agree there were many positives to be taken from the highlights that I looked at.

    23-24 season

    I think West Ham and Everton will stay up in the Prem so we will play them next season wont we.?
  11. Your car, or taking a bus, coach and trains all have charging points.
  12. Better grab your FA Cup final ticket now then. ?
  13. So true Sir Geoff, I had to get my grand daughter 7 years old to set up my smart phone with the apps and stuff. My grand daughter even has a smart watch she calls me on. Technology seems so easy for kids.
  14. Asda probably has a basic smart phone cheaper than a printer that comes with ink and a pack of A4 paper
  15. Totally agree with you but unfortunately the way we always did and do things are changing dramatically. There is a massive cost saving for ticket booking companies world wide by going totally electronic and digital. Even booking flight tickets I request soft copies (print outs) but was told they would not be accepted at check in at the airport for security reasons. We have to show the bar codes of our flight tickets at the airport and when we check in we get another notification sent to us with our digital boarding passes.
  16. Probaly best we have not been awarded one. Why some footballers 'choke' during penalty shootouts: Brain scans reveal those who miss are overthinking the consequences of missing the shot A penalty is one of the most pressurised individual events in all of sport There have been many high-profile misses such as Southgate at Euro '96 Researchers found some people activate the pre-frontal cortex in their brain This is responsible for long-term thinking and leads to nerves and apprehension People who trigger this region of their brain are more likely to fluff their attempt
  17. Last week booked a train ticket locally in OZ. Our tickets were sent to our mobile phones and we scan the bar code for access to the train. Looking at flights now for a visit back later this year to the UK. Have been advised my airplane ticket, car hire at heathrow will be by bar code. This is now accepted world wide im afraid.
  18. I remember a few years back and we watched all the episodes of open all hours over a bank holiday weekend. British comedy back then with faulty towers and many others were the best and most enjoyable to watch and brings back so many memories.
  19. New York Times. Looks like they need my personal history and how much I have to drink a day to open the link. ?
