Howard Gayle RulesOK

Thoroughly enjoyable. cheers Bob.

Mate, I’m not beating on Australians here so don’t get in a tizz but … …don’t you have the capacity to admit you mightn’t be the best every single time? This idea that ‘Aussie is the best and I’ll never admit anything else’ is a myopia which baffles me. And once again because I know that you are a sensitive bunch deep down, I think Australians are superb company.. aw heck, I’ll even admit that some of my mates are Australian. It’s just this weird belligerence I don’t get. And for the record, the answer is Rooney.

Was that when the spuds fans started to throw their completely used season tickets onto the pitch? 1-1 this time.

you;re in trouble now brightonrover. the first rule of BRISA is: you do not talk about BRISA

id go with that. Wouldn't have thought you'd have a case for 5 english players at the beginning of the series. Hopefully the entire series will go to the wire and with a bit of luck, we'll sneak it. It's been good so far. Enjoy the OT test whoever goes.

I was at the test on saturday. One of the best sporting accasions ive been to. The atmosphere rivalled any footie match ive been to and both teams went at it hammer and tongs. The aussie fans were great fun and Justin Langer was the epitomy of a good sport when getting some good natured banter from the crowd. And to top it off, we won. Super fred everyone. Make sure he knows it when he gets to his home ground.

The arrangements are a joke as has been discussed. However, im going. cummon the blues.

Most importantly, did anyone see some guy doing some breakdancing swallow dive thing behind Hanson and the other pundits when they were introducing the match? Very funny.

well i thought it was funny

am i reading this right? Please tell me ive got the wrong end of the stick.

Last night was ######. Rovers were ######, Charlton were ######, Charlton's fans were ######, Rover's fans were ######. It was ######. And Emerton is a ###### who looks like the alien from the Fifth Element.

Just hope he lives up to the billing Aye carumba What is that meant to mean? Why do you feel the need to even think this sort of guff, let alone post it. Its a clean sheet, a new manager and everyone is excited about the possibilities and you feel to add a pessimistic caviat like some sort of 90 year old. Course we all hope he does a good job. Pathetic.

Very pleased. He's got work on his hands no mistake but he's just about the fella i would have chosen first. Edit. Im impressed by JW and how the powers that be have handled this. Professional, decisive and handled with dignity. Highlights the bedlum which surrounds most managerial changes at other clubs for the amateurs they are.

Hooray for the timelord! Loving that work.

Totally agree. JW is a class act. BTW...from that article "I've set myself a target of two to three weeks to make an appointment but we are not going to rush into anything and get it wrong. I dont think i can stand another 2 or 3 weeks of this.
