rutlandhatter: Second o.g. from Hashioka I hope it doesn't affect his confidence. Apr 13, 2024 15:00:26 GMT

rutlandhatter: 5-0 now. Can we recover this season? Apr 13, 2024 15:53:21 GMT

8two: He couldn't do much about that Gale he took one full in the face which deflected it in. His overall performance was ok to my mind. Apr 13, 2024 16:42:59 GMT

clappers: Staines Town FC was my home town club where I spent many happy Saturdays as a school boy in the 60s. Can remember watching them in a home replay in the FA Cup, which was at Brentford's old ground because our ground was too small. Club no longer exits.

8two: I went to the Staines game and obviously saw the young Pelly. Combined the trip to see our old home in Shortwood Avenue which we moved into after getting bombed out of London. Left Staines for Luton in 1951. Apr 15, 2024 12:26:01 GMT

clappers: Dave, I think I recall you mentioning your Staines visit to me previously. Shortwood Avenue was the other side of town to me but I was aware of it because of its close proximity to the cemetery where some of my mother's family were laid to rest. Apr 16, 2024 5:35:44 GMT *

8two: Ray if you pop down there on google maps the last house on the right hand side next to the entrance to the common was ours. My Dad owned two in the avenue as he also purchased one for his brother. Apr 16, 2024 7:18:51 GMT

clappers: Dave, the properties at the end of the Avenue near your old house look well looked after and, I expect, are a bit more expensive than dear ol' Luton.

hatterinSW19: Time to start trailing the big game! The Brentford game on Satuday is the Bobberman Cup Final : Biscot Boy v Somethinggood ltfcfool.proboards.com/thread/1389/spike-bobberman-results-final-brentford Apr 16, 2024 20:26:14 GMT

Lake: Best wishes to both. Apr 17, 2024 8:18:36 GMT

hatterinSW19: Changes to the FA Cup from next season www.thefa.com/news/2024/apr/18/emirates-fa-cup-format-calendar-update-increased-premier-league-grassroots-funding-20241804. No replays from 1st round onwards

Apr 18, 2024 10:21:01 GMT

8two: I wonder if the clubs in non-league or Leagues 1 and 2 feel about it being deprived of potential extra gate money? Hope I live long enough to see the top half a dozen or so clubs p155 off abroad. Apr 18, 2024 10:37:46 GMT *

hatterinSW19: Quite. Changes for the benefit of a few clubs playing in Europe dressed up as benefitting lower leagues, but actually increasing the chances of the big club going through. Playing to get them back to your place for a replay is part of the magic of the cup. Apr 18, 2024 11:01:46 GMT

hatterinSW19: Moving the 5th round away from midweek is a positive, though, I guess. Apr 18, 2024 11:02:13 GMT

8two: I think this will cause a far bigger uproar than the despicable FA's design of the new England shirt. It's an absolute disgrace. Apr 19, 2024 7:25:55 GMT
