BenArsenal Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 PM'ed you, mate. On an unrelated, and somewhat nostalgic note, I've been cleaning my PM inbox, and I happened to read a few PMs I've received from days of yore (hehe). I must say, it twanged my heart a little, and underlines what a great community this place is. Quite a fair number of you PM'ed me just to compliment my story back then, which was nice. Also a few random stuff, like personal PMs to Terk (about his podcast) and Balth (about Australia). Also, apparently once upon a time I was a regular at CSE (the Challenges Forum), and I helped with organising their first awards. (I know, I'm a traitor. :o) There's no real point to this, other than to say, you guys are awesome. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a few months ago they were having nearly 100 people viewing at one time whilst we were at only four...Hopefully this is a sign of things to come...

mark wilson27 Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 Fellows, I've never advocated for anything on this board, but I'm going to break that tradition now.The old Rushden and Diamonds FC retired the number one shirt in 2010 in memory of goalkeeper Dale Roberts, who died by suicide after his fiancee had an affair with a teammate. AFC Rushden, as R&DFC's phoenix club, have also retired the number across all of their teams. AFCRD has earned promotion to the Evo-Stik Southern League Division One for the coming season, but has told the club that it must unretire its number one shirt and that it must be worn. Traditionally, the AFCRD keeper wears the number 17 shirt and the United Counties League, in which the club played last season, respected the club's wishes in this regard. There is an online petition (linked here) asking the Southern League Board to reconsider its decision, which is being appealed to the Football Association. If you are so inclined, please visit.

mistahc Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Seems to be the week for explosions. First, that really horrifying looking one in Tianjin and now Bangkok. We have some backpacker friends out there at the moment and their phones haven't stopped ringing. My poor wife is terrified, and now refuses to go to any country that might be targeted. After the France thing she was inconsolable and I said to her, "everything's fine, what is going to happen to us here?" A few hours later a jet plane fell from the sky into a busy road we use just a few miles from our house killing 11, including two footballers on the way to a match. To say it's somber round here is an understatement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tenthreeleader Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 So, I'm nervous. As some of you know, I'm job hunting. In the last 24 hours, I've had three interviews (a second interview with a company as well as a first and second interview with another company) for two different positions, either of which would pay me more than I've ever earned in my life. I might get offers for one, both or neither. Someone give me a tranquilizer, please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

copperhorse21 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I think the Glazers need you at Man U to negotiate player contracts and transfers! Can you pass on a proven goal scorer at the Champions League Level to pay nearly twice as much on a relatively unknown teenager? I thought you could do better than Woodward and co.... If not that, surely you could try real hard to be as politically incorrect as possible to become qualified to be the FIFA rep doing the scandal investigation brouhah...? If you're totally desperate, couldn't you apply to be Jermain Defoe's personal assistant? On a serious note, I thought about your job prospects today too and am sorry you can't hold a press conference yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it's just a little bit easier now with 24 teams in the finals, but still a great achievement. I'm rooting for Iceland for the exact same reasons... I think even ordinarily without the expanded format, Iceland and Wales truly deserve their results. I mean, Iceland beat Holland twice, and Wales are unbeaten in their qualifying games and have won against Belgium. Shout out to Slovakia too, three points ahead of Spain at the top of their group, and nearly there as well. I really want them to do well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dllu Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I think even ordinarily without the expanded format, Iceland and Wales truly deserve their results. Oh, absolutely, I wasn't trying to belittle their achievements in any way. Especially Icelands (sorry, WLKRAS ). For a country with just over 300k people it is nothing short of sensational to qualify (which I think is almost certain now). For a country like Denmark, however, expanding the finals just means that from now on not qualifying will be a massive failure... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
