Well actually, I posted them on the Rotherham thread in answer to D.S.B asking "Anyone going to Brighton" because there was no Brighton match thread at the time......Lost Leopard Spot wrote:You Muppet!

Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Considered it, but as it's mimicking a three-word phrase it'd need two really (Al-bi-on), then it starts looking like "bi"... and TW readers are smart enough to work it out.Enoch wrote:A judiciously placed hyphen wouldn't have done any harm.
But it's good to get high marks off the boss.

Ah. Wondered about that, too, but I figured you don't need a hyphen (actually a dash; a hyphen links words, without spaces either side) between sentences, and the question mark signals the end of a sentence.Enoch wrote:...will you? - Bright....Dave Sutton's barnet wrote:Considered it, but as it's mimicking a three-word phrase it'd need two really (Al-bi-on), then it starts looking like "bi"... and TW readers are smart enough to work it out.Enoch wrote:A judiciously placed hyphen wouldn't have done any harm.

Sadly not, I'm up country for a bit. I love a night out in Brighton, it's right up there with a night out in Bolton, or a night out in.....
I love a night out.

Looking like Clough, Danns and the goal machine will all be fit for Saturday according to the B.N.

Surely Danns is now at the back of a five-man queue for central midfield. Especially considering Clough's return may squeeze the available spaces.

Spearing, Trotter, Pratley. Midfield for me.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote:Surely Danns is now at the back of a five-man queue for central midfield. Especially considering Clough's return may squeeze the available spaces.
Then Silva and Feeney wide of a striker. Clough can come on for one of the widemen if needed later in the game.

I'd start clough up top instead of heskey. But madine probably edges that spot.
Trotter/spearing/mark davies would be my 3. Feeney captain and wellington.
