that's entirely different, with the knuckle draggers blocking the vision of others thru standing up as they're queueing to get out in the 18th minute of the half.

Willo, you get a lot of stick, but I quite enjoy being able to write something really vague such as "Manchester United used to wear blue shorts" and you'll flesh it all out with some fact. The 92-93 away kit had blue shorts. It was the last kit Umbro ever did for them. They won the premier league Between 1887 & 1894 they had blue shorts on their home kit - they won bugger all

Never came up in the days when I used to partake in a challenging Football Quiz league many years ago.Yes 'Crystal Palace' had a team but I never played for them.Maybe someone on HOL was in that team ! Think it was called the 'Home Counties Football Quiz League' with all questions based on the latest Rothmans Year Book.

I was watching the build up to the Swansea match on Saturday and couldn't believe they'd decided to waste money of two large signs on their ground. One saying Stadium (as if no one could tell what it is) and the second saying Stadiwm (as if Welsh speakers couldn't work that one out without the translation).
Optimistic as ever |

I remember going to a match there in I think 2007 and got a bus to the'Liberty' from the Quadrant Bus Station.Was seated in the West Stand. In Swansea that night my wife and I visited a lovely Chinese restaurant called the "Opium Den" !

Wonder how the player feels who missed an empty net in the last minute also the 2 headers completely unmarked. No manager can do anything about that and I hope that his reputation will be undamaged.

When Guidolin joined Swansea last season they were in 17th place, 1 pt above the relegation places.They beat the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and W.Ham and finished in 12th place so he did well for them last campaign. It is reported that the Swansea Supporters Trust who have a stake in the club are saddened that they weren't consulted about his departure but I doubt if they would have had any say.

Only shame is that they did not give the job to Ryan Giggs - then it would be only two (other) teams to worry about in the relegation battle. And one more United legend out on his a**!

That's because there is not much on Wikigoogle about colours. That is why you are not an expert. Virtually 100% of your knowledgeable facts come from a Wikigoogle of the subject matter of Oringinal Post, not from your own personal knowledge. I must say that some of the information is interesting and can be helpful. It is just disingenuous to pretend this is your information. It is researched at each point in time, which is fine. Just be honest.
