Godot 149 Posted May 18, 2008 Sir Bobby's constitution is far from shot if he can stand sitting next to his wife as she sports a shade of pink that would make the average human retch. Let me get this clear, you were speculating whether Sir Bobby Robson could stand sitting next to his wife in the stand where she was sitting. Had he not been able to stand sitting next to his wife, had he chosen to stand instead, I'm not sure whether those sitting around him would have stood for him standing in the stand.

TAFKAG 70 Posted May 19, 2008 So which team is next to go tits up...Gretna, Bournemouth, Luton......nah, surely it'll be Halifax Town. Confirmed A great shame. Looks like Gretna next... Gretna now have no employees. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted May 19, 2008 Quiet on this thread today. Then again, I'm assuming one of the more enthusiastic posters, DDT, has been enjoying his day out at Wembley. Why thank you MPFC . I didn't actually make it to Wembley due to the impending birth of our first baby - I had known for several months that it would be off the agenda. I did however remain close to home and watched the event with about 100 other Exeter fans who were too old, sick, poor, pregnant or committed to go to London, we had a great time and got rather merry. Exeter, five years after we (I say "we" as the club is owned the the fans) faced oblivion, are now back in the league. Our old debt of £5million has gone, we have a great young team and in Sir Paul Tisdale, we have a very fine manager indeed. If we can hold on to the boss and our best players, I don't think a top half finish is beyond us next season. The threat of relegation is eased with the prospect of Luton, Bournemouth and Rotherham all starting the season of minus 10 or 15 points. If we were to lose our manager, as some have suggested will happen, before the new season kicks off, I would be a lot less confident DL is not the place to get too emotional about football, but it is fair to say that yesterdays events have pleased me greatly. I hope Carlisle go one better next season. And I hope Paul Huntington gets what he deserves next weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted May 19, 2008 Thank you DDT. Glad to see your young team were inspired to pass the ball to the ageing Rob Edwards at the crucial moment. He was training pre-season with Carlisle, apparently in the hope of finding a league club or - possibly - a berth at Gretna alongside a slew of other CUFC old boys. All in all, he made the right call signing for yourselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Scot Posted May 23, 2008 Hey! Why not post all your info about lower league football here and take a liitle pressure off the Richard O'Sullivan thread. You will also be doing the forum as a whole a favour by keeping the aforesaid Dickie O thread on topic. You needn't even post about death or bad health. Just keep wittering on about Tottenham Wednedsay and Oldham Rovers for post after post after post and let the rest of us get on with predicting and disscussing the deaths of celeberities. You've done it before. Why not do it some more. You know it makes sense. Whadayasay? Hi, guys! I'm Scot. I've been on the DeathList board proper for a while - but as that's not really a football thread I've joined you. I do hope I'm welcome. Now for those who know nothing whatsoever about me, I'll enlighten you a bit about myself. I'm Scot Angus Smart, I live in Newcastle - upon - Tyne but was born in Glasgow, and I'm still a devoted fan of Celtic. I'm the youngest of four brothers - although I've got a twin brother - David - and we've got two other brothers Darren and Stuart. I'm nearly 25, single, work as a hospital porter, and I share a flat with my brother David and pet Red Setter Tess. My hobbies are travelling, shopping, clubbing and watching my adopted team Newcastle Utd play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted May 25, 2008 Donny 1 Leeds 0. No bullshit, I feel for the Leeds supporters hereabouts, play-off defeat is - in my experience of it happening twice - harder to take than failure over the full season. Respect to Donny mind, v good side, one of the best we played this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted May 26, 2008 Yeah, speaking of newcomers, mucho debate on the CUFC boards about those willing and unwilling to pay their hard earned cash to enter the home of MK - Franchise FC - Dons. I'll confess I will go to that one. Oddly, in the MK Dons vs Leeds games it would appear Carlisle's Blue Army might find it easier to will on their comrades from Yorkshire.

In fact, the last girls to be born in our family were my mum and her sister. We're very male dominated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
