I hope they're not looking at a ticket refund.

Spot doesn't have funds to cover 90,000 (including the prawn sandwich brigade)

So the League Cup Final is a no show...

Hope Hunter is ok.
He's a reliable regular. Both on here and on our old home.

Congratulations Buxton!

Yipppppppeeeeeee!!! :lol: :lol:

Could have been closer if you'd a better view of the photos though, but for your PC going plonk!
But cheers, Hunter.
8-)

Many thanks, CnB.
Think things just went for me at the right time. (Plus those new-fangled 3d glasses!) :lol: :lol:
As said, if we've another one next season, I'll just as likely be in a relegation battle!

And many big thanks to Ralphy & Spot for running the comps.
They've put a lot of time & effort into both league and cups.

:D

I feel I haven't been given enough credit for Buxton's double victory. I just wonder how he would have fared without my continued supply of that well known aid to spotting balls - the renowned bacon butty. I've scoured the threads but can't find even a mention. Life is so unfair! :(

'Tis true!
It's the bacon butties that do it, Spades! :D
Inspiration, sustinance and, an uncanny knack of seeing 3d visions from Spot's 2d photos! :lol:

Got me thinking, Spades.
Maybe Sean should import some of your famous bacon butties for the lads at half-time.
Pretty sure it'd help stop us conceding late goals! 8-)

I would congratulate Buxton but I'm still too bitter after being knocked out by him in both cups and losing to him in the league. Definitely my nemesis, I need some of his 3D vision.

On a serious note, congrats to Buxton and an amazing run of consistency. Have really enjoyed all the competitions, hope that someone takes on Ralphs mantle next season, I'm already plotting my revenge on Buxton.

Maybe we can persuade Ralph and Spot to reconsider if nobody steps up. Thanks again Ralph and Spot, I think I'll have withdrawal symptoms over the next few months.

I'd love to but, it is very time consuming and my Makrame lessons are suffering ;)

Spot is still reeling after "shadowgate" and has set his heart on retiring into the Sun :)
