Fancy Luton to win Euro 2024 now...

it will certainly go down as a classic FA Cup moment I'd say. Petty rivalries aside, it was an incredible comeback and they so nearly pulled it off. Definitely one of the more memorable semi finals of recent times

Can we keep them locked in there?

i *think* they stopped having the annual service after the Hillsborough verdicts were finally delivered (2017) - or maybe after the 30th anniversary? Either way - I think they felt it was no longer necessary to keep it front and center after the Hillsborough Independent Panel delivered the unlawfully killed verdict.

I was at the game. Played very well and a bit unlucky to lose it. The Spurs fans I chatted to afterwards broadly agreed. Spurs stadium is pretty good, right? And the beer is cheaper than ours!

I don't think Stanmore is ideal for WHL. Better off Cheshunt or Enfield as it's only a few stops from WHL I'm parking at Cheshunt

Thanks for correction!

It's on BBC 2 - 12.30pm kick off

only option is to torch the house and find somewhere else to live I think

it's all ifs, buts and maybes. It is the same in every title race. The demands of TV mean title rivals play at different time. The bottom line is the league table is more or less irrelevant until all games have been completed.

I don't seem to have received my tickets for the Tottenham match (electronic or otherwise)? I have the email receipt. Are they emailed? Posted? Anyone able to help? EDIT : Sorted. They emailed them to my son apparently!

If you asked all the clubs at the start of the season - do you want top 3 promoted (no play offs) or Top 2 promoted with Play off winner - I guarantee they would ALL vote for play offs. It was the clubs that proposed and voted them in in the first place. The endless drama they have created down the years means they aren't going anywhere. If anything, an extension to the play offs (like National League system) is more likely to happen

He will be fine, he's in good hands - let us know how he gets on

i *think* the vehicles on the bridge were the maintenance vehicles. The mayday call presumably enabled the bridge to be closed to traffic about to cross it. Perhaps there were some vehicles already crossing but it sounds like it's the maintenance crew who are the ones missing. I imagine the bridge is well covered by CCTV so they must have a reasonable idea of how many vehicles were on it at the time of collapse. I think it is a bit suprising that a bridge like this with piers in a major waterway didn't have those piers protected with barriers (which exist on other bridges). Whilst they might not be able to withstand the impact of a massive cargo ship such as in the image below (admitedly a very different type of bridge and waterway).

is he even a real colonel? I always thought he looked like Ken Bates

I shall drive to this one. Was planning to park at Cheshunt or somewhere and tube it to WHL, unless anyone has any better suggestions?

Terrible for her and the family. Hope she will be ok. Perhaps the wicked rumours about her can cease now

I opted for England Cricket World Cup 2019 England win Euros (2022) Super Saturday London 2012

it does indeed. It was an incredible last hour that. I think if it had resulted in us winning the Ashes then it would be 100% top of the list. I rewatched that last hour the other day - amazing drama with the LBW shout that AUS burned their last review on and then needed it when there Stokes was LBW and wasn't given.

some great moments but for sheet sporting theatre I think the cricket world cup final take some beating

got tickets for me and the kids for this. Do this count as an "away" for priority points purposes ? (assuming not, but worth knowing)

remember this day well. I was shocked at the sheer randomness of it. to be just walking to the football and get struck like that. Absolutely terrible. I know the club were quite supportive to Mr Murphy's family in the months and years afterwards - sending flowers on the anniversary etc. Not sure if they still do.

superb. will definitely order one of these

Yes indeed. All the best sir to you @fuchsntf

when is the draw for the semi final?
