Does she not know that it's an AWAY game?

A P ologies in advance to anyone, but it really hits you when you see it. I saw the teletext headline from a distance and I could only make out the words "at St James's" so I went closer to find out who we were signing and it wasn't what I was expecting. Still, it would be most appropriate in view of her Durham Bowes Castle heritage. And why should London hog all the big events? Isn't it good to share them around the country so that all the people can take part, maybe after St James's the next one could be at Old Trafford or Anfield. Just as long as the burial doesn't interfere with the under ground heating or drainage, we have enough problems already. And where abouts would you choose? Her favoured Leazes End, or centre circle or ...?

Whoops - having just read the common decency thread I have to say - this is a joke and I didn't mean to offend - if I have. I just couldn't resist!

You haven't offended me and I hope I haven't offended you. I just couldn't resist it.

Lynda - I thought the same when I saw the news. It made me smile and no, I am not offended! (:o)

Manager Bobby Bobson wanted the Fulcastle players to practice the dead ball into the box, but this was ridiculous...

Ah, the mullet of Billy the Fish. Fulchester's greatest aquatic keeper. Always looked dangerous with Shakin' Stevens on the ball.

Brown Fox, the large chested Red Indian winger for me.
