I'm not sure that's true. In last season's home match I distinctly remember him timewasting when they were a goal down early on. I couldn't work out whether it was because Villa were so confident that they were going to equalize that they were getting their timewasting in early or if it was such...

I half-listened to the Netherlands-Scotland match on the radio. I haven't even seen highlights so take what follows with an appropriate measure of salt. It sounded like WeeBG was involved in a lot of what was good about Scotland's play in the first half, when they had most of the possession and...

I can't believe this thread got to five pages without anyone posting this timeless classic: Although apologies for posting a seven-minute video when you folks have been pretty good at keeping things to a bite-size three minutes (or less!)

Urgh, yes. I tried to get on the 14:20 high-speed train from Milano Centrale to Roma Termini with a ticket for the 14:30 high-speed train from Milano Centrale to Roma Termini. I mean, I partly blame the Italian rail network for having too many fast and convenient services but that's not the sort...

I've never seen the point of Mini Eggs, except perhaps as some sort of chocolate substitute to ease your post-Easter transition back into normal eating habits, the Easter egg equivalent of a nicotine patch. They don't taste of chocolate and that measly coating doesn't even taste of sugar. I eat...

I dunno about it being unattractive to the committed points harvester. I'm looking at it as worth 7.5 points for next season's European away matches. Which we'll totally be getting. Might mean I can swerve a tedious 5-point trip to London in September and still stay ahead of the tier 2 pack...

Well of course. The original is saxophone-led. Nothing is better than sax (unless you're doing it wrong). I like the new version, though. For me it's one of the all-time great riffs and I can listen to variations on a theme for a long time before getting bored of it. Not quite Pachelbel's...

From Withdean to Wembley Everywhere we go Blasting free kicks at the wall Dunk is one of our own

But you know that even with superkeeper Jason Verbruggen at his disposal, De Zerbi would insist on rotating him with the absolutely hopeless Bart Steele and we'd be no better off.

We've all been on a European tour A European tour A European tour It's been great. Even better than I expected. I'm counting down the seasons until the next one.

So exited. Barring a resurrection miracle. And we're just a little too early for Easter.

Did you know that after heart disease and cancer, hope is the biggest killer of middle-aged football supporters? Protect yourself from hope To keep hope at bay, doctors recommend reading at least one North Stand Chat thread about the AS Roma match per day. If you do start to feel symptoms of...

These passphrases need to be things that can more plausibly be dropped into conversation. Suggesting that the birds will be flying high tomorrow against AS Roma would make the agent stand out as having lost his wits.

Thought I'd missed my chance (was working and got distracted at 09:00) but managed to snag one from the second wave. First time I've got lucky in the tier two scramble so a new ground for me.

Sorry, totally off-topic for the Marc Leonard thread now he's in his twenties, but: how things have changed since July 2018!

Six Nations 2019. Half time score England 31-7 Scotland. Scotland had lost every match they'd played at Twickenham since 1983. 18 consecutive defeats over 36 years. It looked like there could only be one outcome. Full time: England 38-38 Scotland. Details that don't augur so well for us on...

Jesus, do we have to do this competition as well? I'm not done being upset about Roma yet.

It seemed pretty lively already when I passed around six o'clock. But I got the impression they were just getting started.

Mine has just turned up while I was reading this thread. (Surname 'G' although I think we've established that's not relevant. I was also pretty late filling in that form from the club.) Too late to get it printed so I may just wing it with my phone on Thursday or see if my hotel in Rome can...

Don't give up hope just yet. FA Cup Final: 25th May...
