  1. Jumpers for goalposts...pitches like ploughed fields, one sub only, slow, lumpen football (see pitches issue), appalling tackles and dire facilities. Ah, the good old days. Utter bollocks.
  2. Yeah, it was noticeable how Watford changed thongs at half time, leading to their goal. Cracking result and performance, at times the lads tore Watford apart. Some lovely stuff.
  3. It's an interesting debate. Footballers and officials get a dog's abuse sometimes, yet if they give some back, everyone goes nuts. Watkins was clearly directing it at one particular fan; fair play to him. All clubs - us included - have dished out plenty in the recent and long-gone past to players, etc. Can't say I'd want to be on the end of it...maybe this is the first step in addressing this? Perhaps in the same way that racist abuse was pretty common back in the early '80s, when I started going to games regularly. Now, it's just nothing like it was (in the UK, at least). Watkins' BBC interview afterwards was excellent, seems a smart young man, and was clearly upset by the grief he got, and pleased to give some back. It's interesting how we all become different people on a terrace; I used to give Gabbiadini some terrible stick when he played against us; but many years ago, he moved in opposite some friends', and I really felt I ought to pop over and apologise. End of the day, they're just people, understandably they get upset. Interesting to see where this goes.
  4. No, not really, I went to school with him, but that was a long time ago.
  5. Apart from the roads, the sanitation, the streets being safe, education...what have the Romans ever done for us?
  6. I never got a chance to say "Hello"
  7. Any chance we could get him back as our first transfer window signing?
  8. I genuinely never knew, how do you access it (genuine question)?
  9. That's about average, I'd imagine. It's not like FIFA
  10. "Funding apples when it should be funding pears! I demand absolute comparison between all BBC outputs!!!" Radio costs buttons to put out, particularly discussions stuff.
  11. I didn't realise it was still going. It was crap when I used to watch it as a kid, the ultimate proof of which was Berhard Langer admitting he'd seen the 'mystery person' segment being filmed.
  12. I'm combining the Boxing Day traditions of football and family by dragging my two to (T)Watford. Sigh.
  13. I'm a Bristol City fan. I'm always worried.
  14. Drive to Amersham on the Chiltern line and take the Met Line into London.
  15. Me and a (West Ham supporting) mate came down from Brum for the game, not realising it didn't kick off at 3. We were so upset, we went out and got absolutely battered in town.
  16. So, if all 10k are going to be accommodated, under the 15% away fans rule, that means that Carrow Rd would need to hold 66,667...not sure it's that big
  17. Regardless of when it is, it is absolutely essential that we get Moyesie to give us his big two-armed wave, like back in his playing days
