I re-iterate I never got any "Running commentary" - alas there were many "Someones" outside of HOL who thought otherwise but alas I was telling the truth. Let's NOT get into contretemps of this nature which will only de-rail an important thread.Let's get back to the subject matter. Edited by Willo (22 Jun 2017 5.35pm)

"Close but no cigar"? That means "almost but not quite successful" - completely the wrong idiom in this context. What I was alluding to was that it was not yet cut and dried.

FFS how did we guess that you'd turn up to the proceedings like the person from Porlock (non-Coleridge scholars will have to look that one up) and put a dampener on the day. Can't we just have one day of flag waving, boozing and dreaming? Porlock was a very gifted 'attacking' midfielder with 'two' good feet. He did tend 'to' drift in 'and' out of games. I believe that he was Coleridge' first signing as manager.

His tribute to Plymouth, Ipswich, Arsenal and England striker Paul. Paul was big fat sam's second signing and 'hardly' ancient. He was only 26. He was discovered wandering lonely as a cloud by sams then 'chief' scout name of wordsworth. He was eventually sacked for spending far too much time scouting an area south of Carlisle more famous for producing rugby 'league' players for daffodil infested places like Workington and barrow.

Goalkeeper Stockdale was mentioned on HOL quite recently - It was Mariner who signed him on 'Loan' for Plymouth. Don't know what Mariner is up to these days.
