Never been a great fan. Dad supports Notts Forest and my youngest brother is a die hard Spurs fan.


I'd have to wait until dad had finished watching Grandstand until I could watch Tom and Jerry and I got sick of him screaming at the T.V and being moody if Forest lost. The worst was when they got knocked out of the F.A cup final by Spurs in 91 and dad tore the kitchen apart whilst me and my brothers cried at the bottom of the garden with mum cuddling us.


He got told off by my Grandfather which was an epic tongue lashing which we listened in on from upstairs.

Well I can sympathise with you on that. Highbury, the former home of the Arse (who played the most boring football known to mankind before Arsene Wenger arrived as manager) was known as the Library because their fans were so quite it had no atmosphere and that hasn't changed much since they moved to The Emirates Stadium. The other trouble with Highbury was that the stands were facing the pitch.

Jah Lush is aware of this from a while back but I thought I'd just rub it in the face of the gooners on the forum. I was on the demolition of Highbury (Keltbray Demolition & civil engineering contractors) and I brought my Spurs mad little brother some of the bricks from the site to smash up for his birthday.


Hope no one's too sour about that.

My Dad once said to me, always trust a man who likes football, but never trust a man who likes West Ham.




He didn't really say that, he didn't like football (and knew nothing of West Ham).


Aologies for spelling, beers tonight.

I don't know where I get liking football from. My dad doesn't really like it, mum had no interest. I remember dad being kicked out a couple of times because he was such a bad father and didn't take me to the football. Never lasted for more than a weekend though.


It can be boring, but then so can most things. Makes up for it other times then.


I would have loved to have been on the demolition squad at the old library, I'm so jealous BBW.

    • Was planning to come on here to ask if anyone might know which celeb/royal came through Lordship Lane yesterday - was on my way up to Spurs, on bus at the roundabout by the EDT when some whistling police cyclists pulled the traffic to the side of the road to allow a biggish range rover to shoot past, on the way up towards Dog Kennel Hill. Could only make out two, maybe middle-aged, men in the front before it passed. Mildly hysterical lady on pavement was laughing/screeching with her friend that they were desperately trying to find out who it was. Had more reason to post after this lunchtime's experience. Had just got to bus stop opposite the M&S by the station when some mini cooper thing bombed through the traffic, swerving across to cut up another car to get up the hill, before two or three police cars followed about 20 seconds behind. Said mini cooper thing then reappeared coming the other way, beeping its horn to get other cars out the way before it bombed up what I think was Elsie Road, with police cars now on both sides of the road by Maxin trying to stop traffic getting in the way/half the speeding car. Bit more than I had bargained for when I set out/want in local area! Stay careful out there folks, this place is getting scarier...
    • The stop outside the chippy was still closed earlier today, although the barriers I saw yesterday have been removed, so no need for the closure.  The stop outside the church across the road is now uncovered and open
    • You all have different and conflicting interests though. It isn't necessarily appropriate for him to communicate with all of you at the same time about the same issues.    You're giving more away with each post as to how these difficulties probably arose. 
    • @CPR Dave He needs to communicate collectively with all of the beneficiaries.  That is the whole point of my original post.  Electronic communications are the best way of doing this, as I am doing now on this forum.  Apart from the gold digger who will get a six figure sum the rest of us are on four figures, and that is going down by the day. I'm offended by any suggestion that we are not behaving well.  What on earth do you mean?
