Another who I imagine has sadly passed was Charles Stokell I think he was the oldest poster on here His birthday was the same day as my daughter And I always think about him on her birthday
Who was lexx on the other forum? Is he still on here? Somone got threatened to be sued too by spilling the beans on the Turner transfer Can't remember who...
He was the one who claimed to have a stream for every game in the days when only some of our games were streamed.
To this day I find it so crazy that this was the case as recently as 10 years ago. Considering there were cameras at every ground for highlights packages, not letting people watch the camera feed for.. reasons.. was so strange.
“Thanks, dad! Wait, why is my birthday card addressed to someone called ‘Charles’?” “Don’t worry about it. Open your presents.”
New boy Gyabi 'will be massive' for Hull City please log in to view this image 07:10 Media caption, Published 3 September 2025 Hull City's deadline day signing Darko Gyabi came as a surprise to many, but Leeds United fan writer Adonis Storr reckons he could be exactly what the squad needs. The 21-year-old midfielder, who came through the Manchester City academy, joined the Tigers from Leeds on a three-year-deal. He also boasts 12 appearances for England Under-20s, scoring two goals. And Storr, the Leeds fan writer for the BBC Sport website, explained why the young midfielder is a profile fit for Hull City. "Very young, 21, very good player, technically good on the ball as you'd expect from a Man City academy product," Storr told BBC Radio Humberside. "He's tall, he's six foot five and he recently, in the last two seasons, has developed his progressive runs [and] dribbling." Gyabi made an impressive impact on loan at Plymouth Argyle, racking up 58 appearances across two seasons in all competitions. "If you look at his stats for the last two seasons, he's in the 86th percentile against other midfielders for progressive carries," added Storr. "What that means is he carries the ball at least 10 yards and into the opposition's half." Hull City have had less possession than their opposition in three of their four Championship games this season. Their only win has come against Oxford United, when they had 74.8% possession. Storr says Gyabi has the ability to turn defence into attack rapidly by winning the ball back and keeping it, adding an extra dimension that can win Hull games. "He's always had a bit of defensive stability in bringing control to the midfield, but he's now moved into that classic box-to-box role," Storr added. "He'll be massive in terms of counter-attacks for Hull - he might be able to link the defence to the attack and bring players into the game."

I met him, in person once. Think I offered some tickets on here or CI and he said he wanted them so I dropped them off for him
Signing players born in 2007.. That and having to correct my Grandson a couple of minutes ago who asked if I was born in the 80’s is making me feel old this morning.
