@Clb74 You must have had the Car Journey From Hell home from Mansfield mate I am guessing the topics of conversation in the car were as follows: 1. Apologists. 2. Enamel badge collections. 3. Is San Miguel nicer than Grolsch. 4. Railway train timetables. Tell me I am wrong...
He complained about people eating his doritos and wine gums, then he fell asleep and woke up an hour from home.
The Mansfield site confirmed that there 492 Charlton fans there yesterday, so leaving 7,000 lazy b******* not bothering to go. #myexfriend@Clb74andmeareloyal
Bowyer's attitude to the FA Cup was revealed by his description of the draw as "The worst possible outcome". Normally you'd expect getting knocked out of the cup to be the worst possible outcome.
Forget the match. The munchkin nicked me roast potatoes and half me Doritos. So we're 20 mins from Mansfield ring little legs up and text him what pub you in. A couple of minutes later there's a phone call from him "What pub am I in I'm still on the bus" Now the train from Notts to Mansfield about half hour and it's £4 No the midget has decided to take the bus because it's probably cheaper and only 45mins. However elfs is ringing me back to say his still on the bus after 1h15 and still 10mins to go , I've now started laughing and the more it's getting at elfs more I'm laughing. So we park up and walking down to the pub and we stumble across one of the little perves off snow white. He says there's a pub down there , now never trust elfs with pub recommendation it was like someone's front room , nice people in there though. Little legs giving it I'll get the 1st round there's 4 of us , out his popped his flexible friend. Ffs no legs it's cash only ,he now pulls out about £30 telling me that this 30 quid has got to buy his match ticket, travel home and cornflakes for the week. He gives in though and finally parts with the money for the drinks. My round I've ordered a roast with mine , before me dinner comes I pop up and get another drink for dinner. Barmaid comes back your dinners on the table, get back to the table and there's two roast potatoes on the plate. Now never have I been served up a roast with two roast potatoes, elfs is licking his lips though. 10 mins later one of the others goes up to get a drink , in the space of two minutes elfs has received a phone call and left. You've guessed it the man with no shame has smelt a freebie, the phone call was about complementary tickets. Now the fella at the bar don't know this and has parted with his hard earned cash, yes you've guessed again the drink he got snow whites mate is still sitting on the table. Now I won't bore you with the game as let's face it who really travels all the way to Mansfield to watch a game of football. Yes elfs wormed his way into hitching a lift back and would of laid in the boot if need be. I'm popping in the shop said does anyone want anything reply back no. Can of drink , wine gums and Doritos for me. Offer the wine gums around and then a couple of minutes later I hear a rustling it's the munchkin opening me Doritos didn't know it was him at first as I couldn't see him behind the bag it was a 120g bag. You having a laugh I asked if anyone wanted anything , I managed to save about half a dozen for myself. So I've had me scoff I'm now gonna have a snooze, now there's nightmares and there's nightmares. I was asleep for about 1 h 30 but in that time I had the longest nightmare ever. It was one where a man with a horrible voice didn't stop f@cking talking for the whole time I was asleep. I was trying to wake myself up but it was one of them nightmares where you can't and you just freeze , this nightmare of the fella talking finally stopped at the crown Bromley common. You've guessed right again it was the same time les Dennis vacated the car. What I thought had been a nightmare was actually real life. I'm sure at one point the driver must of fallen asleep but thankfully we made it home. Next time I'm driving and will put the rest of the passengers out thier misery by going over a little bump 46 times.
Best post ever, unfortunately it's all f****** true.....apart from the pub grub, I did NOT touch it. @Clb74 is the man!
Sounds horrendous mate ...the bit about having £30 cash to last him the month sadly rings true....the only bloke to take a doggy bag to a funeral Reception is @baraettmattesvensson
@Clb74 How much for a drink did Elfs give the driver for that 175m lift home. It’s got to be £15 surely ?
Oh no there's more . The cheeky f@cker is emailing virgin, the firm he tried to rob two weeks ago and asking for a refund on the return part of his train ticket. No doubt he'll ask them to send a pre paid envelope aswell
Possibility of a glamour tie at Man Itd Away in the 3rd round. Watch 10,000 plastics come out the woodwork ..
Or away to Spurs, then we could have a day out at Wembley without having to worry about finishing sixth.
Each to themselves. But my take on the fa cup. We had 500 at Mansfield, if this had not been a new ground we would of been lucky to get 350 up there on a Sunday. For me the fa cup finished years ago, there's too much money in today game for 75% of clubs to give a f@ck about it. Some are saying bowyer should play a strong team so we can progress in the competition and then want a big premiership team in the 3rd round. Surely if we wanted a decent run in the cup you want to avoid any big clubs till as late as possible. To think if we got man u away there would be more Charlton at that game than at home to Mansfield.
It's just another sign of how far we have fallen. Once many of us used to look forward to the 3rd Round draw hoping for a lower league or non-league opponent as an easy route to the 4th round. OK if we drew a 'glamour' team so be it (though we never seemed to do so as I recall). But even against a top flight team we might consider ourselves as having a puncher's chance on the day. Now all we can hope for is getting a glamour team and 'enjoying the occasion' - seeing a nearly full Valley again once more for old' time's sake, while the gate money goes straight into RD's pocket and our team gets pummeled into the ground by an opposition whose two youngest substitutes cost them more than the value of our entire squad. It is what it is - a humiliating reminder of what our old club has been reduced to.
A full house expected tonight. In the first row of the Lower West. With an important league game coming up on Saturday, I assume the Bowyer will be making use of the squad tonight
