He might live in Devon, but so do 3,000,000 other people, we don't all know each other. :~D

Matt.

Thing is it`s nothing like an old joke at all, it`s not even funny!
We might not all know each other but someone who is a sporting local celeb might just be easily found on a site that should know who the bloke is! Possibly. i.e if your looking for someone you would naturally trace their history for contacts, it ain`t rocket science or are you just being an arse to someone who you don`t even know again? Ever heard of trying to be helpful instead of trying to be a smart arse all the time, a lot of your posts are very good reading and you obviously know your stuff but then you go at people for no apparent reason and it really does let you down.
Why do I feel massively hypocrytical right now!
Edit minor spelling f**k up!

Your best bet is to ring the Herald Express and ask to speak to Dave Thomas, if anyone can help you he can! Sports desk 01803 676211.

Turn off the spell checker!

You`ve edited that! I quoted it before you edited it though, kind of couldn`t resist! Sorry!

Not all of `em! :na:

The physio isn`t injured or do you mean Damon?

After driving home from the game and sitting in the pub for a while listening to people as they got back I noticed some people saying "Typical Torquay, they don`t want to go up, they`ve got no ambition!" Well this pissed me right off but I was too knackered to bothered saying anything to them. Also there seems to be a massive miss-conception of us making more money from bigger gates if we stay down, this I feel to be a massive load of `orse shite!

Bang out of order Andy . . . . . . -> . . .

Lil' Danno had a better first half at Plainmoor than in recent home games. He loves the Grandstand side, just to get away from the detractors on the Popside. We had them on the ropes after Danno scored, and it was a mistake to take him off.

In Martin Ling I trust.

Now I know I need to take a short walk!

A total joke?

Aussie, he took a Swedish club to the Champions League final, how the hell can you call that a joke? He took Fulham to their highest place in the Premier League for God only knows how long and took them further in the Europa League than Ferguson and Mancini could do with either Manchester club. He's also just guided WBA to safety with games to spare on a smaller budget than Villa offered McLeish. He's a good manager, he's very aware of the european way of playing and I reckon he would do a fantastic job, so laugh your arse off, who will the socceroos appoint next, Ricky Ponting?

Just baiting it up a tad, going by the private message I was sent by someone without the bollocks to say who they were, I would say it`s interesting right now but hey I really don`t think he`s good enough for the job. This is why I larf, he`s hands are already tied to a degree in who he can select because they`ve already been selected and he hasn`t got time to build everything up enough! It ain`t so much him, it`s them, the F.A, they haven`t managed this at all well as per usual. Lucky if they make the quarters! Very lucky!

The Ref didn`t get it wrong as such, he deliberately took the piss because of the way Rene went off and laughed as he wasted time! This was nothing more than the Ref trying to pay back Rene for taking the piss! Officials should NEVER behave in that way, he is a disgrace to Refs everywhere and should be disciplined by the F.A but as we all know the `Toothless Blazers` do Jack about anything!
97 minutes had expired even after the 4th Official put the board up for what was an unfairly long 4 minutes anyway! As I have said before on numurous occasions Refs seem to hate coming here and usually find some way of punishing us.

HRG wrote:I had my reasons for leaving it so late Aussie, not related to the play-offs since I already know that I cannot go to Wembley, because sometimes I have to put t'other half first (who knew!) and I can't go to the play-off second leg as it's the opening night of a play I'm in. Which leaves the first leg as a possible.

Anyway after discussions with Father, I've been on the phone and got two tickets sorted, so we'll be there. My daughter has had a better offer, however, so I'm disappointed that she won't be coming with me. :no:

Still excited though... COYY!

My post was not directed at you HRG, I heard loads of people at the ground on Saturday all saying they would wait till after the game or get their tickets on Monday. I am made up that you got tickets, hope you have a fantastic day! Your post did give me food for thought but I never intended it as a direct response to what you typed, my post was more generally directed at everyone who wanted to take the risk of leaving it potentially too late and then whinge like fury when they can`t get one!
