We’ve spent so long wondering why we never get better crowds we never considered the reason might be…us.

He's turned the Danes against us!

(Hello Micra, I've taken on board your comments about my posts being obscure so I'll explain the above. It's a still from the Scottish TV comedy 'Limmy's Show' where Brian Limond plays a number of sketch characters. In the above he is playing a man wandering the streets of Glasgow shouting 'She's turned the weans against us!' 'Weans' (pronounced wanes) is a Western Scottish dialect word meaning small children. It comes from 'wee ains' meaning 'little ones'. The Eastern Scottish dialect word would be 'bairns'. By changing 'she's' to 'he's' and 'weans' to 'Danes' I have made a 'humorous' comment about our manager pissing off our two most expensive signings by never featuring them in the squad)

COYB!!!

I was keeping that back as a quiz question for a quiet day

There's no way someone won't mention crisps.

Before she went to the Co-op the other day, mrs micra asked me if I wanted her to get Emily. Our next door neighbour (Emily) is a critical care nurse so I was bemused. Turned out she meant Elmlea - a cream substitute which we’ve taken to recently.

The most extreme example of the challenged hearing phenomenon was a few years ago when I asked mrs m to get some gaffer tape and, bless her cotton socks, she came home with a packet of jaffa cakes.

I’ve nothing to add re the Crawley match except to ask @Blue_since_1990 what he meant by the comment above. Tried and failed to put the quote at the end of this post. Sorry.

Very exciting team, very pleased with that. Key for me will be not playing long ball though. Fingers crossed!

Let's hope no-one starts it off.

I understand the downward thumbs. They were based on @benks’ original rushed post which he edited to make perfect sense 39 minutes later - after the 5 downward thumbs had been posted. Easy mistake to make.

They'd only have to add the 'avier'
