West Stand officially opens, and we thumped Wolves 6-1...




...just sayin'!

Nothing to do with the game tomorrow... other than good omens for this weekend!


...bizarrely, it's the same date at the Munich Air disaster (albeit 23 years later)
.... maybe not such good omens for some, after all!
 
Really looking forward to this now. It’s a low pressure game vs league and I think Brighton are a nice team to play against. I’ve grumbled about the KO time but the plus side to being on my own is that I’ll watch the rugby with a few beers, watch the football with a few beers, and hopefully be in a good place to drunkenly abuse my Scottish and Brighton friends at the end of the day.

Still sad that Gilly has gone mind.

:harrysmile:
Sounds like an ideal day!
 
I'd probably complain if I knew what "100% sport on" meant.

:contefacepalm2:
It's like "Get your SPORT on" ...as in; to be ready!

Just looked it up on the OED... seems a legit term:

Worse thing tottenham ever did. Hated that stand. Only moving to Stratford could surpass it in shiteness
 
*spot on...

As in completely, undeniably true that those 3 will not be on the scoresheet and so totally reasonable to disagree with.
It's just possible that the original gag has gone over your head somewhat, sport
