This site would have trouble deciding whether to have tea or coffee
Big J and his disciples….
Tea of course. It’s Britain’s National drink. Grown in the glorious British Empire where the sun never sets. It’s what our brave soldiers drank in the trenches and on the Normandy beaches. Coffee is drunk by the French and Italians, no wonder they threw the towel in during WWII.
Libtard Forum VI …..
Coffee! Because it’s drunk all over Europe, of which we should still be a part. Responsibly sourced, and imported on a fair trade deal through the Rain Forests Alliance it can provide valuable income for the less privileged rural workers of countries such as Colombia, Brazil and Kenya.

Cox was laying into the forward players at end of the game
So I’m guessing Turan was more geriatric than Jerry hat-trick!

Too many falling outs fo my liking.
Managers, coaches, players, supporters, local press, local government…..
Not sure if anyone trusts him anymore. Probably fewer now than those who said they still supported him in the poll two months ago.

It was more what our dear Prime Minister could learn from it. Particularly the way Southgate speaks.
I said it was a dream final for me personally because since the 1970 World Cup I have followed the Italian National team.
It all came about after that England v Germany quarter final. The ageing World Champions losing in extra time to “Der Bomber” Gerd Muller! We had a dodgy keeper that day too!
In the semi Italy scored early but conceded with the last kick of normal time (shades of 1966). The final score aet Italy 4, West Germany 3! The press called it the game of the century and it was certainly the best game I’d watched (after 1966 of course) and still remember it.
So Italy became my new England. Particularly as the Lions didn’t qualify for another World Cup until 1982, when bizarrely Italy beat West Germany in the final.
I was deprived of the dream final in 1990 when we lost “that” penalty shootout, and somehow the Argentinians defeated Italy, Baggio, Schillaci et al!
So I’ve waited for this for 31 years (if not 51)!
Who do I want to win?
England of course! Italy have had numerous moments in the sun over the last 55 years, we desperately need something to rejoice about given the crap we’ve had to put up with over the past decade plus!
Just hope it’s a great advert for football.

Surprisingly I agree with much of what Bartonscorpion says.
The damage has been done. Irrevocably some may say.
However honourable the idea of a fans panel it won’t get us the ground back. It won’t get us a squad that can win us promotion.
The fans weren’t even listened to on the kit vote, given what we’ve ended up with. So what’s the likelihood of being listened to on a panel?
Remember those token “Students Committees” at school?
Rather like politicians canvassing before an election they’ll nod their heads and tell us they’re on our side, but ultimately do what they want.
The best that’ll come of it will be shorter queues at the refreshment kiosks, but given what the gates are likely to be that’s going to happen anyway!
I admire your enthusiasm for it Awaywego. I’m guessing you and UTI99 have already applied. Or will UTI be sat on the other side of the table?
But once again we find out about it from a website, not from the club.
Communication? What communication?
