    Keeping loosely within the board rules, how quickly can we bump this thread to 1904 posts?

    It's not really for the protest, it's pretty much just nonsense, but it would push us over the 400,000 replies mark.

    Thanks to you noisy lot, we're the second most active board on the network, only Newcastle are busier, but we've had less chairman issues than them. <laugh>

    What about ideas for daft message board games? Or your favourite gravy?????

    Could this be a 1904 Overture?

    Thought the 1812 one was good.

    What about, if football clubs were films or plays, what genre would they fall into?

    Newcastle would be a fly on the wall documentary.

    We'd be local boy makes good.

    Arsenal would be subtitled for English viewers.

    Hull City were formed in June 1904, the same month that a fire on a steamboat in New York killed over 1,000 people.

    It was the year the first New York subway opened too. There's got to be a connection.

    Too many letters you can colour in. <ok>

    I know the Harpo backwards thing's a myth, but isn't her name a typo?

    We should have a little do when whoever does it. Maybe a little jackpot, we all put 50p in to a PayPal account, winner takes all.

    Brady and Darby are two City players whose surnames are anagrams of each other. Can anyone come up with any other similar pairings?

    Daniel and Daniel.

    Davison and Davison

    Davidson and Davidson.

    The longest one has to be Stuart Elliott, which is an anagram of Stuart Elliott. <ok>

    Does Dallas have an 'un'grassy knoll, if not why don't they just call the other one a knoll?
