  1. Pretty much the same,but less sweary, than the Pope's Easter message.
  2. Booking
  3. I refer my right honourable poster to the edit I made before his post above, when I noticed I was completely on the wrong track. 🙂
  4. Great for him personally, and fine if he's a free agent. But, if we do extend that contract, I'd be just as happy keeping him as far away from potential injury as possible. I'd been reading that Scotland were continuing to struggle up front. But, I think that was without Shankland. I'm hoping Clarke sticks with the squads he's been picking. Edit: The above is, of course, my fear Stewart will go. As for Bragg, the last I looked, he had just a few U-21 caps. I thought he'd have more. But that makes him quite the outlier, as Clarke generally sticks with the group.
  5. Fortunately, Patches just put up the audio link for the match, so your son won't miss out, and in lovely quality on those headphones. 🙂
  6. I see the Fulham one is still on BBC sounds. So, at least a few weeks to listen to tonight's game as much as possible. 🙂
  7. Have a tissue, Ralph. Tonda won't be using any. 🙂
  8. He's come on a lot under Tonda. Showing those leadership qualities (although that might be Keane shouting at him a lot, away from training.)
  9. Even at 1-1, heading towards extra time, I was just so pleased with everyone's performance. To get the winner was just special. Another cool, calm Charles finish. But everyone deserves credit. Dowman was their big threat early on. Manning handled him really well, and showed lots of composure after his yellow. Wood and THB strong in the middle, and both capable of staring our counters. Bree with a usual solid Bree performance whoever he's up against. All in front of the so,I'd, confidence giving Peretz. I was worried we'd miss the bite of Downes. But Jander filled that role very well. We tried to be more direct, but both he and Bragg still had a lot of work, breaking things up, offering outlets and getting it out wide. Bragg did all of that really well. Top \erforman e from him. Leo will be annoyed at not taking his chances. It would have been great to see his curling effort go in, rather than rattle the bar. He gave White, who bafflingly avoided a yellow, a torrid time. Matsuki was missing. But Fellows is no stand in. We got to see the quality he brings, and balance to the side. He was another one who really worried the Arsenal defence. Azaz, like Bragg, was there supporting everyone else. In other games, the ball would fall to him. Tonight, we were using other players and counting on him stopping them further up. Super goal from Ross. He looked delighted to be back and looking forward to Wembley. Arsenal hated dealing with him. They couldn't double up as Azaz was there lurking, and Leo would exploit the space. Larin didn't get much to to, but his hold up proved to be really important. Edozie was quiet, but was pinning them back on that side. They knew he'd be a threat on any counter. Massive credit to Tonda. He stuck to his plan. Looking ahead, he took Ross and Leo off. He identified the Arsenal weakness and explored it. And he's given everyone minutes since the start. No one is rusty coming off the bench. Everyone knows what's required. A top performance.
  10. 3 at the back...possession football...oh, we've conceded 6...darn that Russell Martin PL course...
