I'd like to go back to the early 1960s to see people like the Rolling Stones, the Who, the Yardbirds and the Small Faces at the places like the Crawdaddy Club and Eel Pie Island and the Marquee Club. Although I was around at that time I was only a nipper and obviously far too young to go to such places but seeing those bands up close in a hot sweaty club must have been amazing.

Big welcome and group hug for you Xanthe. Hope you enjoy your time on the forum. My only warning to you is that it can be highly addictive.

I'm not the shy and retiring type or a paragon of virtue and I'm always up for it. Meet me under the mistletoe.

I'll drink to that too! I hope everyone on here has a very very merry and happy Christmas. Health, wealth and happiness to everyone of you.

I thought Spurs performance was pretty good. We defended very well with a makeshift defence. First half was quite dull and fought out in the midfield but I thought for the first 20 minutes or so of the second half we were the better team. Berbatov's well taken goal from an acute angle was pure class. Still, Keane blew it for us by missing the penalty. We lost, the best team won. Simply really. Still bloody hurts though.

Tch! No wonder I don't remember it. When you young whippersnappers were slumbering in front of the telly watching your Knightmare TV show I was either getting off my tits somewhere or working my tits off so I could afford to get off my tits somewhere.

Oh! Cheers Lozzyloz, you're all heart. One-handed drum roll for you. What's the other hand doing though?

Never heard of it.

God I'm bored today...I know let's put The Faces on, that'll cheer me up. Never fails. I Know I'm Losing You

Really, where? I must have missed that meeting. Anyway, drum roll please......this is my 2,000th post.

None? If it's about nothing, then it's about fuck all. Is this the most pointless thread ever? Yawn....zzzzzzzzz

I think we'll be lucky to get a top six considering the bad start we've had. At the moment I'm just looking for continued improvement.

A University student delivers a pizza to an old man's house. "I suppose you want a tip?" says the old man. "That would be great," says the student, "but the other guy who does deliveries told me not to expect too much ? he said if I got 50p, I'd be lucky." The old man looks hurt. "Well, to prove him wrong, here's ?5. What are you studying?" "Applied psychology," replies the student.

Crouch's "tackle" was appalling but he'd been fouled twice from behind by Mikel in the build up to it and was obviously incensed. If the ref had spotted Mikel's infringements in the first place it wouldn't have happened. Still no excuse for such an appalling lunge though. Atila, I agree that Malbranque's tackle was far worse than Zakora's innocous challenge and was a sending off rather than a booking. It hasn't been a good week for our refs but I do think that Howard Webb is the best this country has to offer and fully deserves his call up to Euros. I'm very happy with the draw against Arsenal in the semis but I certainly do not want a repeat of the aggregate score from last year. I fully expect us to do better this time around, no matter what team Arsene Wenger decides to pick. And as for the weekend... bring it on.

Discovering this Forum back in March and meeting so many good and lovely people and making some new friends along the way.

Dear Ladygooner, that's precisely what I'm worried about.

Oh! darling Anna.... That's a hat-trick. I'm off to collect the match ball now.

So Mockney, it's you. You're the colt that's been following me around. Darling Anna, seriously I don't think I've ever shouted at anyone on here. Keef isn't nice at all. He's lovely, that's what he is.

I know just how you feel Brendan. Ever since I've been posting on here I seemed to have developed a bit of a cult following. It's bloody terrible, it is. Every time I leave the bloody house this bloody cult follows me around.

Well said Keef. Group hug everyone?

Thanks LizzygotDizzy, that's highly flattering but I've known for quite sometime now that I am a leg end in my own lunchtime.

Not down the pub.

Bollocks! No I don't mean this thread. But, I do say bollocks quite a lot. As in "What a load of bollocks." Or "bollocks to that." Also, on my last couple of visits to the Dog in Dulwich Village recently I've noticed that they've been selling a real ale called The Dog's Bollocks, so I've had to have a few pints of that and very nice it is too. In fact, I can tell you that it is the canine's testicles.
