50 chilli chunks in 80ml chilly fluid, Charlie and thanks for stepping up to the plate. To use an Americanism.

One of Mrs Huw’s faves but her box has a B&W cover. Do I need to get it on the Antiques Roadshow?

Great goal '73, great game '67, great hat '65. That’s Andy Lochhead on the deck after the number 5 had tried to guillotine him. Came down on his neck with both feet. The evil basturd. 3-0 and knocking them out in Napoli was sweet. Casper’s winner was a fantastic night. We knew we had a good team an...

World order has been restored. I’m back in my rightful place in the household super 6 battle, second of two.

Happy birthday, Dazzler. Play ‘em at 11

I was just wondering earlier where Nick now stands in the Golden Gloves battle? I’m guessing Mendy at Chelsea is winning.

I put a serious question on the MDT. Had Wood had a touch second half? This was just prior to him being hooked. In the time they were on the field together Ash must have been involved 10 times minimum. Now some of them were fouls and possibly our guys were aiming for him over Wood but he still influ...

Huw, seeing as you have a spreadsheet of the last round's scores, are you in a position to add 5 points for Africlaret (exact estimate) and 3 points for HunterST ? After the earlier debacle when Africlaret's estimates were left off my spreadsheet, I fear that it could all go Pete Tongue :( I actual...

I blame Slabhead. In our HT Damien Dempsey did a piece on Slabhead and Lindelhof and he emphasised that they can’t be trusted as a back two and that’s why Ole plays two holding midfielders in front of them, which takes a man away from their attacking play. Yet GS trusts him for England in a back 3. ...

Last seasons goal by Son has won the Puskas award from FIFA for the best goal in the last 12 months.

Excellent away point after a terrible second half. Onwards and upwards.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Serious question. Has Chris Wood touched the ball this half?

huw.Y.WattfromWare

It's embarrassing how often we are passing the ball to them in danger areas. Most of their second half chances have come from our sloppy play.

It was given against Brownhill for pulling him back wasn't it?

No Tarks blocked the ball with the outside of his boot. The reason the ball went upfield from Tarks, Grealish didn’t dive but it was never a FK.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

0-0 at HT is how we like it. This is ours to win.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Much more attacking intent from Dwight. So good to see.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Congrats to the winners on their expertise and RCC for his excellent count. 3 points please.

Just back from an afternoon with the neighbours and too much whiskey.
Only to find a female summariser who appears to be a big Villa fan. Has nothing positive to say about us.
COYC, shut her up.

Love Paul Rodgers vocals. Bad Company or Free. StraightShooter the album I’d put on most often.

Mrs Huw grabbed 14 last night and after being miles back only weeks ago she’s gone and caught me. We are still speaking.

Is that the average of the ten tins you have bought ?

Only 5 but I am still on zero points!!

Sorry to pester, RCC, but may I revise my bean count down to 80. I couldn’t sleep last night fretting over my original 120 being to big.

Super band. Did the live New Years Eve show one year for BBC2. They were amazing.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Gabriel sent off for two quick yellows. Oh dear. Come on Saints.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Auba equalises. Come on Saints.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Saints looking a top team at Arsenal. Working their socks off defensively but with some superb pass & move when they have the ball.

Richarlison scores at Leicester.

Walcott scores. Gooners behind again.

I’d normally go for everton but with Pickford rested I want the new lad to keep his place with clean sheets.

120 in 140. Thanks for doing the count, RCC. Love the history photo.

And because there is no manager in the EPL whose tactics vs Man City are worse than ours, sorry but true.

Agreed. Our 4-4-2 plays straight into City’s hands.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

City are a shambles. All that money Pep has spent and they’ve gone backwards. Never replaced Kompany at the back and now they haven’t replaced Silva. They’ve always bored me with their passing game but now they are passing for the sake of counting passes. On the plus side it keeps Bilic in work for ...

Junior bags again to give B'mouth the lead. He’s having a hell of a season.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

After all them PL years of ManU, Arsenal, Chelsea & Man C. Wouldn't it be refreshing if in 6 seasons we could have 3 first time winners in Leicester, Liverpool & Spurs.
Obviously I’m not writing us off yet.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Man in the middle plays him on quite easily. But even if he wasn’t there and the right back was the one to look at I’d prefer it if we allowed that. Give the advantage to the attacker like they used to. Wouldn’t argue with your final point but with the way reviews have been used I think it is close...

Wolves 2-1 up with 20secs left of added time. Neto.
Forget that tight offside now. 0 points from 6 for the Chelsea pretenders.
Final score.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Stanley win 0-2. Amazing that a small East Lancs town with an 80k population could be in the Championship.
Oh! Hang on a minute.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Strange that VAR didn’t draw any lines on the pitch in this build up to Chelsea’s goal.
Looks tight to me. Pass went to Werner at bottom of photo.

Stanley 2 up at Gillingham with over an hour gone. As it stands 6th with gameS in hand. This could be bigger than Leicester winning the PL.

My earliest memories are before my first match, that was West Ham March ‘62. My Dad, uncles and friends talking all things Claret for hours and hours before and after every match. I was desperate to go and see what all the excitement was about but in the days of regular 30k crowds I was considered t...

That sounds like Driver's on Bury Rd. in Haslingden. I was dispatched there most Saturday evenings about 6.20 for the 'Sports' by my dad and brothers but was then invariably the last one to read it. Wonderful era.

It was the shop on Shute, Silky. Me Nan lived on Hillside Rd.

Reigning Irish Champs so CL qualifiers at least. I really rated him and what hurt the most was the assault by Turner, Sunderland, was deliberate. Basturd.

More importantly, why is Lacazette touching Ben’s backside....

Off thread I know but as Lacazettes name came up. He was the culprit who pushed Xhaka over Westy’s leg. Good on him.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Early 60s Liverpool, Leeds & Chelsea were 2nd division clubs. As said above it wasn’t a big thing back then. CT occasionally puts old results pages up and our attendances are a long way from the worst.

huw.Y.WattfromWare

Cheers, CT. I couldn’t argue with a word from that.
The biggest plus for us now is playing better, with our back 5 together again, and any players coming in will not be coming back to a team that is desperate for a saviour. With all the pressure that adds.
