Golden Triangle Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 As you can imagine, being a supporter of Fulham Football Club, mainly because I was born there, I know little about football & really care even less for it, but like most people I do like to see my home team doing well, something that escapes them this season so far. However a number of years ago my ex wife and I took an early new year holiday down on freezing cold Wiltshire resort, log cabins around a very nice albeit frozen lake. Mine host was a very nice chap who obviously loved 'the beautiful game' due to the proliferation of photos & trophies behind his bar/reception, when I mentioned them to him he said "oh yeah, I'm Chopper Harris" I said 'WHO ? Never heard of you, I didn't know he played for Chelsea, nice guy though, we spent a few nights talking about everything except football, had a good time there. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some decent footy into ya, AFL. We only talk about it to keep TBL away. I've never really watch any of that AFL, is that the game where the refs stand behind the goals or posts and make out like they're shooting a couple of pistols? It could have been so different though. In my younger days I quite fancied emigrating to Australia and sent off for the application forms. First question was them asking about my criminal record. I packaged the forms up and sent them back with a note saying "Sorry, I didn't realise it was still a requirement."???????? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sotonowl Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 On 12/31/2020 at 1:39 PM, owl sees all said: Liverpool top the EPL. Blades at the bottom; don't look good for them SotonOwl. But will you be playing them next season? Think I missed that comment previously Owl, please forgive me if I've already answered as I've been in a drunken stupor for the last 2 weeks or so. I think we'll be staying up and I'm pretty sure they're doomed so we can looked forward to the return of an authentic derby next year as opposed to one of these plastic derbies the press are always pushing these days. They were on about the south coast derby the other week when Plymouth played Portsmouth. They're 170 miles apart. Things just aint what they used to be.???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Mr Owl would not mind me saying that he is working on his thesis; 'How chilies could save the world'.

Being French - the home of the greatest lovers on earth by the way - I rarely wear clothes below the waist. But when I do, I quite like what the Scots wear. Professor Pigeon has researched this - left or right thing - when he was in Paris in 2016. At the moment he is stuck in Mexico due to the covid restrictions on travel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct about the conflicts; just jealousy IMO. Viva Le France. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
