Absolutely! For instance, I could tell clearly that the pen against Canvey was actually the Canvey player backing in and should have been  a free kick to us, and I was 700 miles away. Even with that view, I am clearly more qualified to judge than the match officials.

Blimey... are the midges really that close?

Just get a paper aeroplane and use the midges for ballast!

Matt

I found the photos of that day last night. Brought back great memories.

But what stood out was a) Shagster and Rich being nowhere us in the crowd b) neither was Shrek and c) and most poignantly, a great photo of Ninj, Scriven, Al and Rev Bob.

I shall bring them along this Saturday and our first home League match, should anyone want to see them.

...usually followed by "I've always said he's great" just after said individual scores.

Definitely.

And let's not forget, Scriv was only there in the physical sense... his mind was definitely elsewhere (namely, at the bottom of a beer-barrel somewhere). Definitely the most trolleyed I've ever seen him...

Apparently he wasn't drunk. My photos seem to prove otherwise.

ps one of them even has Toot McMahon! Anyone remember him?

I never said I wasn't drunk, I was ****ed beyond belief. What I did say was I didn't nearly get refused entrance to the ground I was just searched as I entered.

Aaaah. Thought it was something like that...
