    After last night's debacle, I'm not looking forward to this one - surely our seniors won't perform as badly? :( Don't think they have a hope, but I will probably succumb to the lure of ITV tonight...

    Recovering from two days looking after a two-year-old. I am now very good at being a tractor and colouring my nose yellow...

    Morning all from Gloucester;) I am not sure but I think summer has gone <yikes> went for my morning bike ride (20 miles) and it was not exactly warm a bit like yesterday morning when I was at work it was shall we say fresh<yikes>

    Anyway on nights tonight and hopefully I will be so busy I will the debacle which is the Scottish Football team <laugh> Not looking forward to this game, I know we had a great result against Croatia but even though I am a very proud Scotsman I cannot see us getting anything positive from tonight!

    Same here - and what worries me most is that the victory against Croatia was achieved with a team of reserves. The Scottish camp are now overly confident because some of their 'big names' have returned - you know, names to instill fear in the opposition, such as Kenny Miller.....

    Over 3000 tickets sold for Reading match, with another 1000 on offer. Let's hope The 'Orns perform for them...

    Plastic fans! How many of them went to Workington to cheer on the lads on a wet Wednesday night! In bare feet, too.


    And had to walk there.

    And wade up The Derwent, knee deep in mud, just to get in for nothing, only to find the local constabulary guarding the hole in the back of the stand....

    and had to crawl along the banks of the river calder up the sewage outlet and into the Shay with 350 diehards to see the mighty horns win 0-1 in a crowd of 1,500 and thus start the mighty climb out of the pits of despond,,

    Actually the worst thing that happened to me was to have to endure something they called 'tea' at Lincoln then failing to hitch home after the evening game (which we won 5-0) and end up sleeping in a workman's hut on the side of the A1.

    England and Ísland beat Skotland and Færeyjar by small margins last night. Do the visitors play harder as we are seen as the enemy more than other nations might be? Or are we really rubbish?

    Did Essaïd Belkalem play yesterday. I saw Algeria threw the game to a 2:2 draw after being 2:0 ahead in 20.mín. His number for the game was 4 so I think he started.

    You must mean me you big brave person.Well like you last Sat I have other things to do,will be home later though- you should pop round for cu scum ber sandwiches,but I cant remember my address.
    Not suggesting anything of course,but am told Maj stadium has a low tolerance re naughty language. Dont forget to take a radio as you wont be able to concentrate if you dont know how the Hatters are getting on.
    Maybe see you there next season if the 'Orns manage to stay up.
    (Its travelLing by the way,getting a bit worried about your corporate spelin)

    I found a website for the Algerian football team in french and I do not think Essaïd Belkalem was even a substitute.
