  1. That's a tad optimistic for you. We will finish 12th, that's a fact.
  2. Lump on Green Destiny and quick. Now 11/4 and people are still piling on. I managed to get 4/1 the other day. It's like printing money.
  3. And? I'm still going to put a stamp on it, so when I'm pictured on the front of The Echo pointing at my half empty ST with a sad face, people will have more sympathy for me.
  4. I was thinking about it but now I know we're not being giving the terrace, I won't bother. The terrace is the only appealing thing in Yeovil.
  5. Disagree there. Once the novelty of their first season in the Prem wore off a fair few years ago, their crowds have been shocking. Especially when you consider the size of the city. Imagine they will only continue to decline if they start slipping down the table after a quick fire-sale to balance the books.
  6. How far north would I need to go before I was in Polar Bear territory?
  7. Myself and some associates were removed from a kebab shop for singing that after the last game of the season. Great song.
  8. That's probably my favourite story. The one of him parking outside his favourite restaurant on double yellows and getting a parking ticket on an almost daily basis is also amusing. Made even funnier due to the fact he lives up the road from it.
  9. I'm hopefully off there next year to see my cousin who has just moved there. Anyone able to recommend any decent national parks near-by? Don't mind driving a day or so to get there. Want to take in some of the spectacular scenery whilst there and wrestle a few bears next to a salmon filled river.
  10. Good on him. I'd be happy to get promoted by any means necessary.
  11. Not all the time. I saw him last season when I went to see Hearts v Rangers. He had a shocker and put the ball into the crowd every time he touched the ball. When he was substituted, the crowd were all on their feet doing that worshipping thing we used to do for Le Tiss. Not sure how he manages it but he always seems to get the full support of everyone, despite not being that good.
  12. I thought WHU squad would have been decimated when they got relegated but so far, they've managed to hold onto most players and even added a few more than useful additions. Leicester have also made some good signings. Though they've pretty much signed an entire new starting XI, so will be interesting to see how they start off. This is probably the strongest I can remember the NPC being for quite a while.
  13. The NPC is a crazy league. I imagine at the start of last season, some Sheff Utd fans were talking about promotion themselves. We have as much chance of getting relegated as we do promoted. I'd be happy with mid-table mediocrity this season and push on from there.
  14. Everything I've seen and heard about him has been very positive. Let's hope he delivers on the pitch though. I remember being excited about Skacel signing...
  15. I just booked £30 return from London, 1st Class as well. That was with a railcard though. Have a look on East Midlands website, them and Virigin have the cheapest fares atm. Have a fiddle as well and look at trains to Donny. A ticket on the day from Doncaster to Barnsley is peanuts.
  16. Sounds as if this bloke is just what we need to go along side Fonte. Building a squad for the future is all well and good, but you need some players who are capable of doing the business now.
  17. Surprised there's not a thread about this already. Some cheap train tickets still to be had. Would be nice to get 2k up there seeing as it's the first away of the season. Then again, the vast majority of our support start to get nosebleeds if they go further north than London.
  18. I think you need to re-read the original quote...
  19. When I rang up I was told I had to post mine back in. Anyone know Cortese' email address. I would like a cheque to cover the costs of the 1st Class Stamp.
  20. Ballotelli is a proper lad. Some of the stories about him have had me in stitches. The game needs more characters like him and less dullards like Rio Ferdinand and the like.
  21. Been on hold for 90mins now. Trying to get a specific seat so want to get in there ASAP. I expected a long wait but this is taking the p*ss. Then again, the club seem more excited about the launch of the new shirt than they do about Season Ticket sales.
  22. The only decent thing about Burnley is the blonde barmaid at the cricket club.
  23. He beat Lambert in a game of paper, rock, scissors?
  24. There is no proof he was over the limit. Yes he was pictured earlier in the evening with a beer in hand, but again, still no evidence he was over the limit. The police have even filed it as an accident and not a DUI. But don't let that stop you all getting on your high horses...
