Re: Shareholders' letter
Wonder if anyone's gonna splurge on a box? I remember they did a BFC pool table at one point..... That is exactly my plan, Zizkov, - well, have a corporate day - for my 60th (next Jan) and have a family do which is why I'm so desperate for us to stay up this season. I'd rather go and watch us again...

Totally shocked and saddened by this. Always struck me as a great bloke and great character...oh, and not too shabby at cricket. I was there in 2005 at Trent Bridge with England needing about 120 to win and every ball Warne bowled was the proverbial event in itself. From memory he almost won that te...

No foul for the injury but two poor challenges after that from Daka which will have caused the stud marks. On the basis that Kavanagh couldn't tell a throw in from a spot kick on Tuesday, nothing was ever going to be given. Given Everton's indignance at this ref and getting an apology from Mike Ril...

My WHU supporting chum is very much lacking confidence in his team for next Sunday. 'It's exactly the sort if game we'll lose'.
I also think it's exactly the sort of game that we'll turn up for.
On that basis;
