Yeah well, fairs fair, isn't that how England got in post 1966, or am I thinking of Eurovision

It's how we qualified in 1966.
Come on Everton. Never liked Boring Wood. They've got a nasty sneaky bastard on the bench. I hope he suffers!

Penalty shoot-out!
It's just like the League Cup Final all over again.
Next stop Wemberley 3rd April. Yoo hoo!
Frank O'Farrell, who took over from Matt Busby at Manchester United on the latter's initial retirement in 1971, has died age 94. Following his sacking by United 18 months later, he had to sign on at the local Labour Exchange. He later went on to manage Torquay and Iran.
Chelsea in Special Measures.
We couldn't even see Lukaku if we wanted to.
This Ukrainian thing is really beginning to bite.
Yes - so this time it really is farewell to Roman Wesbromipsvich.
I didn't think they would actually do it.
They didn't want to, I'm sure - Director's Box seats all round, I should imagine.
This lot only act when public opinion pushes hard enough.

Absolutely. For about ten years (scary) I have been on this forum and at times ended up taking a particular line. It didn't always do me a lot of a good. I've got to that stage where I don't trust any of them if they have a whiff of power. I'm kind of Churchlee and Gaitsmillan in my views - (bit of Lloyd George meets Eric Heffer and Atilla the Hun but that is more on my fringes) - as now I find this is the easiest way. I don't want to know what crud they dished out too. I block my ears. And seeing that I wasn't out of my pram before the last of those ruled I am happy enough with that angle.
In any case, I have to look after seven teddy bears, three Mr Men and a house full of nuns and monks who want to get their kit off in the newspapers and worse. So to be fair, I do think that my way of concentrating on my animals is best. I've currently got Freddie my mountain goat blocking all of the traffic out of this road to minimise climate change, Sinatra my cockapoo is assisting Priti Patel to be something that isn't Priti Patel or Gavin Williamson and Melanie my gerbil is a bloody good outside bet to win the 3.30 at Fontwell. Send me 5000 quid and I will tell you which day she races. Big hugs.
Is someone out to get Chelsea wiped off the face of the earth? WHY can't they sell tickets and merchandise, to help pay their £28,000,000 monthly wages bill - WT 'effin F!!!!!
The Putin connection was always a ticking bomb.
It's only because we sell guns to the Arabs that Man City et al aren't in the hot seat
