This Most Excellent Canopy, The Air—Look You. Boro at Home.

This brave o'erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire.............. you Smoggy bastards :D

Well, I for one certainly hope to see Feeney back on the right, and hope that DF continues with two up top.

Actually feeling foolishly confident about this one.

Get the gas-mask and Tyvek Coverall out.......

Whilst I think it befitting and a return to the matchday thread manner to which we are accustomed, may I, on behalf of the many, pray ask for an explanation by way of a "what the f*ck"?
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

here's a fuller version... Act2 Scene2:

I will tell you why. So shall my anticipation prevent your discovery, and your secrecy to the king and queen moult no feather. I have of late—but wherefore I know not—lost all my mirth, forgone all custom of exercises, and indeed it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory; this most excellent canopy, the air—look you, this brave o'erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire—why, it appears no other thing to me than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapors.

Why have we gone back to these silly thread names, I guarantee we will lose this game as a result.
The above post is complete bollox/garbage/nonsense, please point this out to me at any and every occasion possible.
