sheff71   10 #13 Posted November 3, 2013 4/1 Blades? Can't be right,can it?  I take it that's 4/1 just to reach the playoffs for United... I expect winning them is nearer 4,000,000 to 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Hotmale 1954 Â Â 201 #14 Posted November 4, 2013 Steady Tiger. Â Don't forget we'll probably be toothless again up front if and when Fryatt goes back. Wickham almost certainly will go back, and he's not a proven goalscorer either. Â Us old hands'll not get carried away, we've seen it all before. Â I fancied mid table at the outset, and will be well pleased if that's where we end up. Â I'm brickin' it at the very thought of joining the big boys, so the play-offs will probably do bad things to my already dodgy heart.

However he was only 11 at the time and I was in my pomp at 30. Top lad and top owl shame the fools on the Olympic committee consider the sport as not worthy of inclusion in the Olympics. Synchronised swimming is far more athletic not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Joe-b-1 Â Â 10 #24 Posted November 5, 2013 (edited) Only kidding, so did quite a few teams who got promoted or won a few games in that era, I was in my 20's and remember it well. Seem to remember coming out of a few away grounds singing it. Edited November 5, 2013 by Joe-b-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
