Time to pop Boneymouth's cherry

[thebish]

aaaaand it's 2-0..

ream's getting a good chunk of Zat's arse there....

[boltonboris]

Doesn't look too pleased about it either!

[Abdoulaye's Twin]

Probably pissed at him for taking his spot in the 11.

[plymouth wanderer]

Bloody yanks!

Is that fat frank in the crowd?

[bwfcdan94]

Yep, he didn't take his shirt off in the whole game .

[TKIZ!]

Not sure where this "scuffed / scruffy finish" comes from in relation to N'Gog's goal comes from. Looked like a very good finish from a tight angle to me. Also, Bolton Wanderers' footballers; please note that Jermaine Beckford has scored four goals from balls played to him on the floor and has scored none at all from balls twatted towards him in the air. Coincidence?

Although you would have thought different reading some of the reports in the papers. One described the goals as "a long ball from the back to Beckford"

[officer_dibble]

Did odelusi set the second up? Cracking ball from one of our lot given. 1)it was the. 90 th + and. 2) we were a goal up... Normal BWFC regulatory passes in said circumstance invite pressure.

[CAPSLOCK]

He did then got booked for going in the crowd
We'd broken equally well a minute or two before but Danns rolled it a fraction wide

[coffeymagic]

When Final Score said '..a late goal down at Bournemouth..' I was just getting ready to put my foot through the telly and send Dougie Freedman the bill however what a pleasure to hear 2-0 to the Wanderers.

Hurrah.

Sounded like a great turn out from the fans. Well done to all who went.

Leicester fan in the office said similar - thoroughly expected a late equaliser against us, delighted to hear different.

I was the same I shouted " oh for fecks sake!!" Head in hands

Much relief after

[Bruce Rioja]

I was sat listening to it on the wireless having contended myself that we'd got our equaliser in first.

Me too, my phone pinged before I had pressed refresh on here. I went from to to in a matter of seconds!

Couldn't stop laughing at the Andy Lonergan chant. Who makes these things up?

What was this chant H ? (If I can use your first name ?)

You sure can! To the tune of Simon & Garfunkel's Mrs Robinson:

And here's to you, Andy Lonergan,
Bolton loves you more than you will know,
woah oh oh ohhhhh

Very good. Uncommonly inventive.

Robinson does NOT rhyme with Lonergan

[Enoch]

Robinson does NOT rhyme with Lonergan

Neither does purist, but that doesn't seem to matter either!!

it doesn't need to! it just has to have the same number of syllables you plum!

I suppose so... How appropriate with both Enoch and BL3 about....

It does in a Bournemouth pub at 3 in the morning after a skinful

Syllables and stresses: "Jermaine McGinlay" wouldn't work. Needs to be a trochee followed by a dactyl, as I'm sure William the White would agree.

quite right!! very good point!

it might not be a huge bugbear to most TW members - but this issue often vexes me with church hymns...

there are gazillions of them - but many congregations (like football crowds) only know a tiny number of tunes... so... many hymnbooks have a "metrical" index for the tunes contained therein... eg. the very common "short metre" (6686) - the numbers relating to the number of syllables in the line...

common metre - 8686
long metre - 8888

and many, many un-named combinations right up to 14 14 14 15 (long-lined hymn!)
via the rare 8585843 -
Angel voices ever ringing
round thy throne of love

trochaic, iambic, anapaestic and dactylic

anyway...

many's the time a vicar has found a hymn with good words but obscure tune - and simply looked for an alternative tune with the metrical index to match the syllable count...

only to find that it doesn't work because:

a) it's in a minor key when the words are jolly
b) all the dominant notes are occupied by insignificant words like and/in/on/to
c) it means words are split and the wrong syllable of the word is emphasized...

tunes are written specifically for hymns for a reason..

one exception, of course, is "while shepherds watched their flocks by night" to the tune "Ilkley Moor bar t'at"
