    To be honest I read the latest comings and going’s but can’t really be arsed anymore. Certainly I feel for my son who started getting interested at the wrong time and unless things change won’t really know the joys of watching the Gas. Watching the club become more of a soap opera and more comings and going’s than a cheap porn. Lost the love a while ago and never got upset when we went down. Not sure I will be back, or at least not for a while. Like you CJS more time spent with the kids and made me realise there’s more to life. Watching Euros but not even remotely interested just watching because it’s on.

    <ok>

    Im not even watching the Euro's. I will have on the big games like quarter finals onwards. Im not even bothered to watch the England games.

    My girls like watching the gas girls and each time i've watched them, I enjoy that more than the mens game to be honest. More fight, passion and more entertaining too. I highly recommend them to you <ok>

    Dorchester v Kings Langley this afternoon, in this standard of football you often see ex-pro's turning out.............. Today's blast from the past is Will Hoskins

    I was 5 in 72, I’ll be 55 on Sunday <diva>

    I was 8 when I first went down Eastville with my old man.

    Look at that Man Utd lineup though - Best, Charlton, Kidd, Stepney etc - quality.

    Nah, we played you on sky before. Late equaliser by us caused a bit of a meltdown by your lot who did a pitch invasion causing trouble and were an embarrassment to your club <ok>

    Here was the late equaliser. Notice all the City fans whistling to beg the ref to blow for full time before the 89th minute <laugh>

    Shaun Taylor given man of the match for keeping a clean sheet and a minute later he loses the clean sheet <laugh> commentators curse!

    Then see the pitch invasion by your lot causing the police horses to come on to the pitch. At least you didn't punch any though so that's ok <laugh>

Pretty sure Jordan mentioned it in his autobiography also!! <doh><laugh><laugh>
