Decent and it’s quiet so served quick

I really hope our defenders do a job on Fat Hippo and injury him (Nouble) and put him out.

 

[C'mon you Shrimpers]

My nephew who is a Dundee fan and lives in Dundee is now in the Fog on the Tyne ahead of his first Shrimpers match for 25 years. I feel rather guilty about not going. Lightweight

jeez, sorry to say something bad about the initiative,, but, a tad small?

 

[C'mon you Shrimpers]

Just checked on google maps to see where exactly the Fog on the Tyne is. It says it’s busier than usual.

 

[Holy Joe]

Walking to fog on Tyne - about 5 mins away, can hear the chanting
