Lakenheath Old Boys

We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

Citeh vs. Chelski Live!

All eyes are on the City of Manchester Stadium this evening as this key make-up fixture kicks off. If Citeh can take anything away from tonight's match, the title race is almost certainly over. If Chelski do the business and humiliate Citeh, who's been in wretched form recently, it might be curtains for Psycho. Will Drogba score again? Will Joey Barton keep his shorts on? Join me to find out, lads - it's live on FSC!

Let's hope Barnsley lose to Plymouth

Thank you, mate.

Did you catch the trivia questions about Watford on the midweek preview show that's on now? Or did you come in late?

COME ON CITEH, COME ON CITEH


Goal at Villa Park

Arsenal get a goal!!!

I saw it

Yes, Diaby has scored in the 10th minute. A comeback for the Arse? I don't know what they have left to play for - third in the table? Both third and fourth have to qualify, so there's not much advantage. A few extra million £s? I suppose.

Also Spurs are playing Braga tonight. Looks like an 8:15 GMT kickoff.

5:01 PM

I got the Luther Blisset and John Barnes questions - impressed?

Here's the team news courtesy of 365:

"Captain John Terry returns to the Chelsea side for the crucial Barclays Premiership match against struggling Manchester City. The England defender has been sidelined since the Carling Cup final after suffering a head injury and is one of four changes to the side that drew with Tottenham in the FA Cup on Sunday. Claude Makelele, Geremi and Salomon Kalou are all back in the starting line-up with Chelsea looking to move to within six points of leaders Manchester United. City, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back following the FA Cup defeat by Blackburn which increased the pressure on manager Stuart Pearce. He makes two changes to that side with goalkeeper Andreas Isaksson preferred to Nicky Weaver. Emile Mpenza is also handed his first start up front."

You'll hate me for this, but I'm going for Chelski tonight - gotta keep it interesting at the top, mate.

5:04 PM

Yes, Plymouth are already one-up over Barnsley. That keeps it nice and tight at the bottom of the Coke. Barnsley on 38 pts.

5:06 PM

Lovely shot there from Joey "No Pants" Barton. Cheeky stuff.

5:09 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Just for that last comment... COME ON BARNSLEY

5:09 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Yes, Barnsley have scored.

Do you want to take back your comment?

5:10 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Which comment? About Joey "No Pants" Barton?

5:11 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Promising start by Citeh

5:11 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

You know what comment.
Who are you rooting for again?

5:12 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Not a chance. Listen, I understand your partisanship, but as a neutral I just want to see it competitive.

Did you know that there is a chance that Chelski and ManYoo could play three in a row late in the season - in the Premiership, the Cup Final and Champions League Final - that would be epic!

5:13 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Not to good there by Robben.

5:14 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Bugger! Barnsley have equalized. I know, I know, you'll say it's karma, but I don't believe in that rot.

5:14 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

I saw that.
They could all be for a trophy.
Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
STICK YOUR COMPETITIVE GARBAGE TO YOURSELF!!!

The Baggies have scored against Palace

5:17 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

They should probably go up this year. Not a bad side.

5:17 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

This match has been absolute rubbish so far.

5:19 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Citeh's keeper looks like Cech but without the headgear.

5:19 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

All I want is a goal from the Mancs

5:20 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

And your two front teeth, your two front teeth....

5:21 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

They've kicked off at Shite Fart Lane. Spurs take a 3-2 lead from the first leg into this match. Should be no problem for them.

5:23 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Ach! Barnsley have scored again - they're up to 41 points now! That will not do!

5:23 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Clinton Morrison has equalized for Palace against WBA.

5:26 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Take it back with Chelski or it is going to continue to go down hill

5:28 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Another shot ballooned over the top by Citeh.

5:28 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Better by by Citeh

5:29 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Yes, but a rubbish finish by Vassell. I wouldn't have him in the England squad anymore. Who would you have up front in the squad for Israel?

5:29 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Bugger, Penalty.
Definite.

5:30 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

More bugger

5:31 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Stone cold penalty there by Micah Richards on Kalou. Shame, because Kalou wasn't going anywhere. He should have held his ground.

Lamps converts the penalty. 1-0.

5:31 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Yes! Plymouth have equalized! Barnsley are back down to 39 points. Come on you Greens!

5:32 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

That different angle show it was a complete dive.

Don't pick on Ronaldo

5:32 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Don't buy it - there was definite contact. It was a reckless challenge by Richards - no need for it.

I'll pick on that Portuguese diver all I like. He's a cheat and you and Wayne Rooney know it. I would refuse to play with him if I were Roon.

5:34 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Shut it

5:35 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Barton tries for a penalty but it's waved off. Now that was a dive! Disgraceful! Should have been booked for that.

5:35 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

That other angle showed there was NO contact.
I agree it was a rash challenge but there was no contact

5:35 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Spurs have had a penalty claim turned down. Robbie Keane crossed and there was a hand. Pundits are suggesting it should've been given.

5:36 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Another penalty - this time for Palace. They're two-one up against the Baggies.

5:37 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Oooh, that could've gone anywhere. Chelski look a bit nervy.

5:37 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

ooh that was dangerous.

As for Barton, you knew he was going to do it

5:38 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Wow, if that stays the same only Preston out of the top ten won this week

5:38 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

He is a naughty boy.

5:41 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Keep it up Citeh

5:41 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

The commentators agree with me.

Of course, the ref had no option to give it because it looked cast iron

5:42 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

Again Chelski look weak on crosses - Terry looks a bit rusty.

5:43 PM  
Blogger gatorbob said...

I don't see the issue. He stands out his standing foot, no question.

5:43 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

I thought this game was tailor made for a surprise.
No one even contemplated Citeh getting anything from this. I thought that could work for them

5:44 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Are you wearing your glasses? There wasn't a touch

5:45 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Spurs are losing at home

Berbatov ties it up

5:47 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

What a shame, Bob has been disabled!!!
That is a turn up for the books.
He just emailed me to say that he truthfully admires the men from Old Trafford. He added that if Leeds go down, he will change his allegiance to The Red Devils.
I am proud of him!!!!

Do you deny it Robert?

5:59 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

I'm not hearing anything

5:59 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Spurs are winning. Berbatov again.

6:03 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Second half to start.

COME ON CITEH!!!!!!

6:05 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Terry looks to have hurt his ankle again

6:10 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

He is limping

6:10 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

That was close

6:11 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Talksport is saying that it is all Villa in the second half

6:12 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Barnsley have scored again!!!

6:12 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Rangers have fallen behind at Osasuna.
They needed a goal anyway so not much has changed

6:13 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

WBA are still losing and are a man down.
They are still dominating

6:14 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Baptista has been taken off at Villa Park and Wenger had a go at him on the bench.

6:15 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

good play by Richards

6:17 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

On another note, there is good news about United's replay against Boro. It will the third game of Scholes' ban. So, he will only miss the one league game against Bolton on Saturday

6:22 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Goal at The Hawthorns
Albion tie it up

6:23 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Two terrible short passes right at the half way line by Citeh.
These guys are professional

6:30 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

This is really going to bug me if it decided by a penalty

6:32 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Rangers have lost in the UEFA Cup.

6:35 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Oooh, Citeh almost got in there at the top of the box.
Better control please

6:35 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Spurs have been pegged back again.
If Braga scores again it is tied.

6:37 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

SWP is on against his old club
First touch, he rifles it off the bar

6:39 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Barnsley have scored again late.
They get a horrible win away.

6:40 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

BUGGER!!!!
Barton should have done better there.
Palace have scored a late winner

6:42 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

What a horrible week for the top half of the Coke

6:43 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

The Arse have won at Villa Park

6:44 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Scramble in the box. Why didn't it fall for a Citeh player

6:50 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Spurs have scored again... Phew

6:50 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

four minutes of added time

6:51 PM

COME ON
CORNER

6:51 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

38.000 showed up for the Youth Cup Semi Final between Arsenal and Man Utd.

Wonder if United can match that crowd in the second leg.
Arsenal won 1-0

6:56 PM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Game over.

Bugger.
Chelsea weren't very impressive but United haven't been either.
I guess the title isn't over.


I never thought it was by the way

Sorry you booted Bob
See ya on the Stretford End next season.
