That is interesting - nice to know he's still alive

Hoping Leyton Orient can beat Derby in teh FA cup today as it would set up a clash with man City
Be nice to see one of the best teams in the world up against Man City

And RIP Tony Book. He was an old player when he joined Manchester City from Bath via Plymouth, then led them to trophies as captain and later managed them.

Malcolm Allison was manager (or assistant manager initially in the case of Manchester City) at all three cubs. Wherever Alison went he took Tony Book with him.

Lion cubs or Wolf cubs?

That Forest Liverpool match was quite some game
a brilliant advert for English football

And then after the match fully expecting to see that Orient got knocked out
the match was still going and I managed to watch teh penalty shoot out

Come one the O's
Bring on Man City to Fortress Brisbane Road

My prediction for ups and downs to and from the Premship this season are Forest, Bournemouth...

I wonder if I can cash out on that bet. 🤔
