Yeah, I know Ted Lowe did it for snooker [Pot Black, I think] first, but Motson did it too later. I think if you trawl Youtube you can still hear him making his gaffe. One of hundreds of his. .
I agree FLT, the bigger the better! Particularly as I'm sat at home on antibiotics and the Dr told me I couldn't fly - gutted doesn't even come close! Poland, Italy and Turkey are the 3 countries I want to avoid if we get through. Bordeaux would be a great away trip, brilliant city
Yep was meant to be there! Just thankful for travel insurance. Also pretty certain the club won't class me as attended as I wouldn't have collected my ticket. Absolutely love having children and getting their illnesses!
No Saints so I will transfer my allegiance to my old favourites Athletic Bilbao. Would love Athletic and Celtic to be in the same group as there is a wonderful affinity between the supporters, perhaps some of it stems from the two-fingered salute they like to give to the Madrid and Westminster Governments respectively.
Here's to hoping for good results for our representatives to win tonight in the Europa League. Good luck Tottenham, Liverpool and Celtic. And of course our Basque cousins, Athletic Bilbao!!
The Tottenham game is a Saints scout-fest. Okaka, Praet, Tielemans. Gillet looks good too (cue razor gags).
Benteke and firmino on the bench for Liverpool. Probably means they'll be back in the starting line up against us.
