me (and Kangaroos4eva). 1-0 over Spurs this morning, going well in Europe, Melbourne out of lockdown, the sun is shining, birds are singing and God is in his or her heaven

Always good to beat Spurs and watch Man U fans trundle out of Old Trafford at the 60 minute mark.

Even West Brom scratched out a win to part way make up for a large loss last week to sneak back into promotion zone again

I was actually referring to the bloke in the pic with the west ham tatts. Btw while on the subject Steve Harris from iron maiden a massive west ham fan. They even done some combined licenced merch.

The Brian Robson autobiography is a good read, fwiw.

Massive Hammers fan. Go you Irons

Why are West Ham called The Hammers and The Irons, and which is the official nickname?

IF you get used to watching West Ham on TV, then go to see them play for the first time, you might be confused to hear supporters singing ‘Come on you Irons’. Of West Ham’s two ni…

That would be Bryon "Pop" Robson as opposed to Brain Robson the welsh bloke who sent himself back to wales when he ran out of money.

Crate stowaway who spent four days in cargo could have flown for free

“Homesick” Brian Robson spent time in jail in Australia before his daring “crate escape”.

both likely good yarns most likely.

So Eddie’s thread had slipped to the third page… so needed a bit of an uptick. During the week he reached out to my boy to catch up for a kick at Arden St. Off his own back, he got in contact with me, got my sons phone number and organised it. They hung out for a couple of hours kicking, talking footy, and talking North. What a bloody ripper.
Can’t wait to see him rip it up next year with the stands full, and kicking goals and endearing himself to all of us with some out there celebrations!

Has Eddie got one of those things on his chest like Iron Man? And time you let your lad get his ears pierced me thinks!

 

[Phillyroo]

Incidentally, that night I wrote him a message to thank him and tell him how much I appreciated it… Eddie’s response “it was the best part of my week”…..

 

[Krakoueraddict]

That's top notch stuff from a 19 year old kid, I can't imagine how chuffed I would have been if a young Dan Harris, Firrito or basically any listed North player had done something like that when I was a similar age to your boy.

Your boy is definitely Roo for life now Phillyroo. Thanks for sharing and well done to Eddie M.
