Saturday 12th January 2019:

Which seven Dutchmen won the Premier League Player of the Month Award?

 

Van Nistelrooy, Van Dijk, Bergkamp, Van Persie, Van Der Vaart, Robben

Had to google the last one. Don’t think I’d have ever got it.

 

Tim Krul I seemed to remember.

 

Yep

 

Googling is very much frowned upon in these parts and won't be tolerated, you cheating ****.

 

That’s why I didn’t reveal it

 

Very honourable of you sir, welcome aboard, buddy

 

Very kind of you. I’ve got a three hour train to Sheffield soon so look forward to the next quiz question.

 

I prefer buses, why are you going to Sheffield?

 

We’ve got Sheffield United away.

No drinks being served until Birmingham will make it a long journey. Thought the train would be full of fans going all over the place but seems to be full of pensioners going to Oxford for no apparent reason.

 

That will be a tough enough game for you. Can you not take drink on the train with you?

 

I would’ve done if I’d known. Won’t kill me to not have one before 11am.

Yeah we’ve been great the last few weeks. Still couldn’t convince anyone to join me today

 

you going on your jack jones? That's dedication mate

 

Yeah quite enjoy the occasional away game on my own though with my Racing Post and a couple of cans. You can normally expect the train to be a bit livelier than this. Hoping some pissheads or perhaps a likeable junkie get on at Birmingham.
