Back at Wembley this morning. Going to feel a bit weird and emotional after last week.

My lad is a ball boy and im in charge of them so will be nice to not be an nervous wreck and enjoy a look around the dressing rooms, tunnel etc. Last week was just a blur!!

Agreed. Not a league fan these days, but always want one or both of the Hull teams to be dining at the top table.

My formative city years were involving the Humber derbies, so don't even have that strong dislike of Leeds. Middlesborough and the Sheffield teams, so always want Yorkshire teams to do well, then northern, in football and ru (although have a soft spot for Harlequins for historic family reasons)

Ha ha, nothing like that. My grandfather came out of conscription, gutted and ashamed that he'd missed out on any action in the war that his older brothers and some peers had, then played a season with HM Customs and Excise team, whilst a clerk, and got sent off for violent conduct against Harlequins. Because of this, Harlequins signed him straight after and he played one game before quitting and seeking a more adventurous life in Kenya and Rhodesia. As a result, sort of adopted as the family team in union.

Agree to an extent, especially when you take into account that Hughes needs surgery for his hernia and Crooks needs surgery for his shoulder. I’m not too bothered as it’s the off-season and I did say when Coyle was spotted on the piss in Empress and Dirty Dicks that he could’ve waited until after the season. I won’t begrudge any of them a bit of fun in Vegas. That being said, I hope they don’t overdo it and aggravate any existing muscle injuries.

When the metrics are so fine now, down to milliseconds, a week on the piss could result in making a difference when the season starts. Proven that alcohol inhibits recovery and rest.

Up to the individual to decide on their own choices, but for players who are on the borderline of maybe/maybe not getting a place in a PL squad, bit stupid in my opinion.
