    against those loafers? Nah. We’ll stick the Chelsea boot into them even if they take us to Court, we won’t chukka this away. They have built a good Platform but if they blow it now it’ll make a Moccasin of the restart. Our strikers will cut through them like a Stiletto but if we don’t go up I’ll Wedge my Winklepicker up chilco’s Clog

    Odysseus. Sparta a bigger picture, and you’ll hoplite (look it up) and the myrmidons will trip you up. Methinks you’re backing the wrong Trojan horse.

    I'll never forget going into a pub in Exeter after beating Plymouth on our way up from league one. Their fans in a local pub gave us the biggest welcome ever.

    Do you remember when people used to big him up? He was awful, glad he’s made a career more at his level though.

    As you live in Northampton, has anyone explained to you why the rugby union team is nicknamed the Saints?
