That was usually the warm up routine of Faes, Winks, Vestergaard and Thomas for the moments of the game after conceding. “That was your fault”, “No, your fault”, “His fault !!”, “It’s Rudkins fault !!!” etc.

You should have spent a few hours six weeks ago looking up the super-flexi-groupy-economy-mega advance-Monday buster-day return travel card with free bus travel…….just £12.70

I can understand that completely, I was in bits when I heard Zippy from Rainbow was dead (Roy Skelton who provided the voice) Also I once accidentally started a riot in a bar (The Attic) over Lenny The Lion. The lady I was with said he was one of Keith Harris’ puppets. I said no, it was Lenny Bennett (stupid guess with same name but we were both wrong). This was pre settling an argument on your mobile phone googling so we went over to a few tables to see if the could settle the argument. On one table a guy said “Yep Keith Harris”, the guy opposite said “ No it wasn’t you ****”, guy 1 “Don’t call me a ****” and throws a bottle. Next thing you know the table is turned over, bottles, glasses, fists and food flying all over the place. I walked back to the bar and said to the barman “It’s not Keith Harris”, looked over my shoulder and saw a Wild West saloon brawl in full swing, bouncer up from downstairs, broken furniture and in the corner the lovely old boy (Maurice I think), still singing and playing his tranquil Somewhere over the rainbow ! The answer was Terry Hall by the way ! No, not the one from The Specials.

They aren’t issuing food vouchers? No need to make a meal out of it!

The “explanation” is in the WBA boycott thread, they weren’t factored in to calculations apparently. Maybe the, “cough”, co-ordinator, thought it wasn’t a night match . I suggest a hearty rendition of “Who under-ordered pies, who under-ordered pies, you tight b*****ds, you tight b******ds, you under-ordered pies” in support of our starving Stewards.

At Christmas Time there should be no need to be afraid, But at Christmas time, Top’s banished their Pies and their Lemonade In their day-glow jackets they’ll show you to your seat Put your arm around this man, he’s had f*** all to eat (chorus)

Ahh I get it now, it’s the fault on the non attending ticket holders and of those who come but are not loud enough that’s the reason we’re playing so s**t, silly me, thanks for pointing it out Top.

I’ve said if I meet a lovely woman who can keep me happy I’ll cease buying the season ticket. Looks like the b***ard club have got me for life

I’ve always thought of him as an out of his depth trialist rather than a loanee which begs the question shouldn’t we have had him over for a trial / training spell before committing. Can’t remember if it was part of the last minute scramble to get somebody, any body, a body, in, feels like a six year old playing Football manager thought “woo, a snazzy name, sounds good” or if he is as easy on the eye as the ladies sat behind me claim maybe Susan Whelan mistook player recruitment for Tinder and swiped right before reading the profile

You can see a consistency of selection over the last half dozen games, a good thing that it’s settling but frustrating that so many of the QPR horror show are handed a start and told to go again. Finally a CB pairing with no Faes or Vestergaard in it, should look more secure and less vulnerable to brain farts without them. City 2 Twatford 0.

Surely they could knock up 32,000, sorry, 23,000 gingerbread filberts, less than 50p a head, they could take it from the players fines for being late / sh**e, cover the packaging with corporate branding and see if as an advertising loss leader. The £5 Chang, is like me yesterday saying to my nephew, I hope you like this jumper, it should be £7 but give me a fiver and we’ll call it quits. Happy Christmas!!

Unwrapped my LCFC high points Blu-Ray from the last 2 seasons. Put it on at 10 a.m., at 10:02 came the end credits Then I opened my Danny Ward goalkeeping gloves, put them on and dropped the f*****g Turkey! My family bought me a lottery ticket - Watford at home, might lose, might win, team might turn up, might not, who knows. Daka’s autobiography was an awful gift, he starts sentences but just can’t finish. I’d been asked to provide a steaming big pudding stinking of booze so I invited Hamza round Big thanks to Rudkin for giving advice on buying turkeys, he has a wealth of experience with that.

Positive spell there, going 15 minutes without conceding

It’s a very long way down from his brain to his feet, the instruction is due to arrive at them about…….now

Right lads, keep it tight for a few min…

For me the watershed moment was when he came on at Norwich, along with James’ phenomenal effort that day he changed the game and has pretty much carried it on since. Had seen little from him before that. Will be interesting if Ramsey becomes fit and available but they are the selection problems you don’t mind having.

I hope uncle Stevie Wonder finds it warm and cosy to wear, nice trick to play!

Lovely people here, I’ve just bought a hot-dog for only a quid off a couple of geezers set up with a barbecue on some waste ground. He offered 10 for a fiver, might go back for more

Right now would I swap any kind of cup run for 1 league point? It seems a bit fruitless, we’re not equipped to do much or go far in it, is any prize / gate money gained significant enough to our deficits to help? Maybe a game where we can look at 2-3 others like Evans, S.Thomas and Aluko for 90 minutes we might learn a bit more about them. Jan 10th happens to be my birthday, I know not all games fall on the Saturday but away to Cambridge would be ideal for me (am I too old to be a mascot)? Home to Forest? I’d rather wait until we had some semblance of a side before renewing rivalries. Gut feeling it will be a dull away to a championship side fixture. Millwall or Stoke .

I respect Call The Midwife as a well made, cosy, warming drama with some nice sentiments but its schedule placing is all wrong. After consuming 3 days worth of food in 10 hours and 2 bottles of Cava, the pace of it guarantees you keep dozing off, coming round and wondering why the story seems so disjointed. I don’t want anything too hyper / manic or in your face at that time but some semblance of rhythm and momentum helps to keep people lucid. Boxing Day afternoon, Christmas Eve Evening but not Christmas Day night. I’ll be piecing together my own schedule, over 60% of it DVD’s / Blu Rays, old favourites and a recent film I haven’t seen yet and look forward to, last year Wonka, this year maybe the Naked Gun remake. Dig deeper on the other channels, Talking Pictures, That’s TV, ITV 3/4 etc and you can salvage something but frustrating that you have to spend considerable time looking around because the main channels are so bland / poor.

Don’t expect our 3 CF options to be our main goal threat, neither Patson “It’s called a ball mate” Daka, Carranza (more like a random trialist than a loanee) or Ayew (more of a linking / hold up player) look like dangerous line leaders, they’re just there jogging around a bit pointing and shrugging shoulders. James is by far our most consistent and effective player, Fatawu can be pretty electric on his day capable of worldie strikes, Mavididi blows hot and cold, decent if he fancies it. Recent evolutions have been Academy graduate Ben Nelson being finally given the starting place ahead of bigger names / ego’s and DeCordova-Reid being utilised as the no.10 as on loan Ramsey is out injured. There are high hopes for 16 year old Monga, like a footballing Harlem Globetrotter, my justification for going to games this season has been wanting to see his first goal at home, this and the fact we had 7 academy graduates on the pitch at the end of the Derby game is the direction we want to see. The bigger name reputation players have been the problem, Winks -attitude, Skipp - Anonymous until last few weeks, Faes - Brain fart clown egotist, Vestergaard - No pace, turning circle of a wardrobe, human / giraffe hybrid, Soumare - likes a light casual jog leaving opponents untracked. Fond memories of Russel Osman, helped club legend Steve Walsh’s early development with his experience, strong and reliable with decent long range distribution and a film star too (Escape to Victory)!

O’Nien’s produces eye watering challenge.

This is what we need, days like this, no mistakes, build up relationships and understandings, get to 10 starts then 20 and become established.

With Jakub, Luke Thomas, Hamza, Nelson and 3 of the subs we have 7 academy graduates out there

Great work Skipp, we looked in trouble there
