I devised mine on the (over?)optimistic premise that we won't be playing Dagenham & R anytime soon.

Once more unto the breach, Neil Danns, once more...

Is this getting silly now?

Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

Can we not at least have an autumn of diminishing hope first?

An odorous chaplet of sweet summer buds
Is, as in mockery, set: the spring, the summer,
The childing autumn, angry winter, change
Their wonted liveries, and the mazed world,
By their increase, now knows not which is which:
And this same progeny of evils comes
From our debate, from our dissension;
We are their parents and original.

Which, in fairness, if written today by Fred Shakespeare from Wigan, would probably be described as a right load of old bollox. :wink:

FFS this is getting a bit out of hand now I wonder what the people of Teesside will think if any of them wonder onto this forum?
The above post is complete bollox/garbage/nonsense, please point this out to me at any and every occasion possible.

They might think "What an excellent, clever title idea for a match thread" that everyone seems to be enjoying and appreciating" yourself excluded, obviously.(If anyone here actually gave a dam what they thought, that is. )

Now the hungry lion roars,
And the Wolves behowls the moon.


We come to bury Cardiff, not to praise them.
