What in the actual * is going on here.....

This is an embarrassment. Think it's time to merge with the Gumbies.

Quoting this for the next time you play them. I'm sure Falconista and co. will be flattered.

 

[Dingster]

And part of that job is to commentate as I see fit.

Do a replay straight after the game.

Fortunately my lack of shower after the mud wrestle , combined with the muddy conditions, means that they're going to struggle to find any evidence to charge me at the tribunal as I'm too well camouflaged. I suppose missing that sitter was punishment enough.

To be fair we did see por_please_ya during that 3QT break

 

[tony]

Part of me hopes that we don't take the foot off the accelerator as we need the % boost (not to mention the form after a run of losses)
But we also can't afford injuries at this time of the season...

A true dilemma but you'll make the right call tony and Ted Lasso
