Golden Fox Posted 13 July 2022 Share Posted 13 July 2022 10/12 - great little quiz. Its so nice to think back to some of those 1990 teams: the last few years have been incredible and documented in so much more detail than we ever had - and that was off the back of the awful Taylor/Levein/Holloway years with so many revolving door players, its easy to joke about the names that represented our club - so going before that, there is a lot of reminiscing about the MON era, but its the Walshs/Elliots/Lennons/Heskeys/Izzets that get bought up, so haven't heard of some of these players for years, whereas a lot of them did decent stints as squad players. I was 50/50 between Rolling and Ullathorne for the first one, and tripped up by no 6, but the number of them I knew without looking at names - Nicky Mohan,Graham Fenton, Julian Watts, Gavin Ward all instantly recognisable & bought a smile to my face. My second ever Premier League game was Southampton at home & remember sitting in the top of the double decker & had a great view of Franz Carr's demolition job as we beat them 4-1. I had the segment from Match of the Day recorded, "On his day he can be magical" which I watched on repeat! Great day! Franz Carr certainly not obscure to me! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were cruising at 3-0 with about 15 minutes left and then all hell broke loose and we were holding on in injury time.

Funny how the memory plays tricks and you have a tendancy to remember the good bits... That Franz Carr goal made it 4-1 with 82 mins on the clock... I'd just forgotten what happened after!

Dahnsouff Posted 14 July 2022 Share Posted 14 July 2022 A somewhat ridiculous but lighthearted look at how the last few seasons of pandemic and interruption has been handled by the Premier League clubs, snippet on ours truely from the Athletic (Told from the perspective of a headmaster gauging his students success trhoughout this period) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how they measured it but maybe as it was a Class Report' it was relative to the other 'classmates' who I suspect have many have performed worst than ours. I doubt we're anywhere near the bottom of the class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OntarioFox Posted 16 July 2022 Share Posted 16 July 2022 This thread has been very quiet as far as current talk about us goes. Not surprised, apart from some low level rumbling from the weirdos in North London over Youri, there's been absolutely nothing to discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spudulike Posted 18 July 2022 Share Posted 18 July 2022 Mrs Spud was watching that Long lost family programme hosted by Nicky Campbell/Davina McCall last night that featured the story of two brothers being split up 50 years ago. I was ignoring it until one described how they chose different football clubs, him Notts Forrest and the other Liverpool. The emotional final reuniting scene when the lost brother was presented with a Liverpool shirt, tears all over including Mrs Spud, whilst they played the tune from Oklahomer. She just didn't get my piss taking and fully warranted abuse. It didn't go down well (it was an emotional story, to be fair) but she's known me long enough by now. I'm going to hell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Steve Earle Posted 20 July 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 20 July 2022 Good piece by John Percy (behind paywall) in Telegraph this morning. Our targets: Levi Colwill, Noni Madueke and Matt O'Reilly (me neither). Tielemans 'reluctant' to sign an extension if he doesn't get his move - no offers for him yet. Vestergaard, Soumare & Bertand the 3 told to find other clubs. Wage bill simply too high, players have to be sold but no takers as yet. Might have to consider selling a player they don't want to sell. Last summer's recruitment 'disappointing', and paying for it now. 43 days left. Never write Leicester off... So nothing imminent then... 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sol thewall Bamba Posted 20 July 2022 Share Posted 20 July 2022 At least it sounds as though we've accepted we messed it up last summer. Great to see we've told the Southampton two to go away, horrendous signings. Hopefully someone will take them, I wouldn't be bothered if they left for free. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
