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!
The international break is over and we have the treat of a nearly full Premiership fixture list this morning. Added to that, my Leeds boys won 2-1 against PNE last night so I can relax and hopefully watch our relegation rivals lose. Join me?

Zamora
Blimey, it's a cracking start for Pompey on FSC this morning with a super curler from Kranjcar. 1-0!
In the earlier game, a hat-trick from Peter Crouch has buried Arsenal 4-1 at Anfield. Why wasn't he available in mid-week?
Morning, Dave!
What a goal for Pompey, eh? Have you hit one like that recently?
I know you don't give a toss but Cambridge won 4-0 on the road last Sunday and are leading after 6 minutes today
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Oh sorry, I dozed off a bit there. What were you saying?
The Tractor Boys are winning
You're funny... lookin
THE U's ARE TWO UP!!!!
Wake up Bob
Not!
Plymouth are down to ten men too!
Good news... Barnsley are losing to Derby
Come on Dave, they're playing bloody Weymouth, whereever that is? I know a Weymouth in Massachusetts but not in England.
Good news about Barnsley.
Come on Dave, they're playing bloody Weymouth, whereever that is? I know a Weymouth in Massachusetts but not in England.
Good news about Barnsley.
Burnley vs. Luton is a tricky one - I don't know what the best result is - a draw maybe? Luton are bottom with 37 but Burnley are on 42 points.
Ipswich two up
United still not having it their own way
Look, we don't want Cambridge to fall down to another division. We want them to be safe in the Conference.
I WAS A BALLBOY FOR THEM!!!!
Same thing with Hull vs. Southend. Perhaps I need to let go of a few teams?
The Conference is safe?
I'd like to see Cristiano Ronaldo playing in the Conference; actually I'd prefer to see him in the hospital.
UNITED sounding very edgy at the moment.
You know that I will be in England this time next week.
Cambridge are three up.
SEVEN goals in one and a bit games.
Heya, Sir Trev! Are you enjoying the glory of another Final Four run for the mighty Gators?!
Conference safe? It is better than the Conference South.
Is this a world record for blogg comments about Cambridge United????
About half of my 9:35 class yesterday morning had buggered off for Hot-lanta - I'm bloody failing them!
I'd like to break a record for blog comments about wishing Ronaldo was in the hospital - what do you think, Davey?
United handballed it in the box. NOTHING given
Good to see your happy 'Ammers in the leads, Sir Trev!
John, are you going to the Final Four.
ABG
Anyone but Gators
Blackburn are having the most chances.
Friedal has had a couple good saves against Roon.
Vidic looks hurt... uh oh
Stretcher. It is his shoulder
Oh, come on, now. That's getting personal. How can you bet against my Gators? Yoakim Noah, what a nice lad!
It could be the end of his season
Shame it wasn't Ronaldo - love to see that Portugeezer in the hospital - have I broken the record yet, Dave?
At the beginning of the Tourny, my prediction was Ohio State beating the Gator to revenge the Football Championship
Should be the end of Skippy's season....in the hospital!
Not a chance!
Blackburn have scored.
BUGGER
Way hay, that'll tighten up the top of the table. Now for a critical injury on Ronaldo - that would make my day.
Good win for England in the cricket yesterday, eh Dave?
Fergie trys to catch the ball and it hits him on the head.
Everything is going wrong at OT
Oh, I'd love to see the "ball hits Ferg" vid! Will be looking for that later on You Tube. Did you like my MC Rove post?
Today match between the Oz and Bangladesh has been delayed by wet ground conditions.
I am going to come down to Florida and punch you right in the hooter
Stoke and Leicester are having a right old ding dong. It's 2-1 Stoke now.
You and whose army, mate? I'm back up by the Gator Nation!
Cambridge are four up
Hull are up on Southend
Into 4 minutes of added time at OT
The Hammers are two up
Tevez
After the brisk start at Craven Cottage this one has slipped into the usual FSC tedium.
Half time at OT
Very disappointing display by United.
Rooney is playing like he is wearing a England shirt
Hey, I'm trying to send all of the bad vibes that I can, Dave. You'll no doubt end up 5-1 winners today.
Good.. keep it coming
Second half starts with United attacking the Stretford End
COME ON UNITED
Barnsley have fallen behind by two
QPR are losing to WBA
Lovely and double lovely jubbly for us!
Vidic has broken his collar bone.
That is a big blow. He has been our best defender.
If you had to have one United player break his collarbone, you'd want it to be Ronaldo wouldn't you now?
Southampton have scored for at Wolves
Nearly another howler from Calamity!
And then a terrific save....he's really a Jeckle and Hyde character.
From 365: "1613: Barnsley goalkeeper David Lucas is still receiving treatment at Oakwell, it appears he has swallowed his tongue and the game has been stopped for around six minutes now."
Crikey! Now there is one ManYoo player I'd like to see this happen too...and I think you know who!
Shut it
Bad vibes, mate. Bad vibes.
SCHOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Come on... GET ANOTHER ONE!!!!
Scholes would have been banned for this game if United didn't have the Cup replay
Free kick for United just outside the box in the D
Cambridge have score # 5
Works every time, eh? Break a leg, Skippy!
QPR has equalized
Ah bugger that!
Bloody Brad!!!
Back to back saves
United have to score again.
They always struggle with Rovers.
Last year they were losing and tied it up and then ended up losing
Giggs hits the underside of the bar!!!!!
The U's just hit number SIX
Ten goals in two games
Keano's magic
Sunderland have taken the lead at Cardiff
They're definitely going up.
Did you listen to 606 on Wednesday with Ray Stubbs after the England match? I was listening in to hear the England chatter but all it was was a bunch of bog-trotters chanting "Healey, Healey, Healey."
QPR have missed a penalty! Phew! What's going on with the Baggies?
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Carrick. Made by Ronaldo
COME ON YOU REDS!!!!!!!!!
Come on Watford!!!
Things looking bleak and now it could all be brilliant
I did hear 606.
Did you hear them interview Wisey with the crowd cheering "Are you watching... Dennis Wise
Citeh have scored at St. James' Park
Bolton are leading The Blades. A good score for West Ham and Charlton and Wigan are drawing each other. Another good result for The Irons
CAMBRIDGE HAVE SCORED # 7
Hull are beating Southend 4-0.
Where did all those goals come from?
Sotton have scored SIX at Wolves
PARK SCORES A THIRD!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!
QPR have fallen behind.
Charlton have scored late
Solskjaer scores number FOUR
Fulham scores a late equalizer. Very lucky
4-1 eh? Told you so! You owe me big.
A good day for you and me.
Leeds are very close.
Luton have 37
Leeds 39
Southend 39
QPR 40
Barnsley 41
Burnley 42
Hull 44
THEY ARE GOING TO DO IT!!!
United up by 9 for a couple of hours
COME ON WATFORD!!!!
Yeah, I heard the Dennis Wise bit. I don't why he'd bother going to the game.
I don't know why he was there.
Again, a good day but for the Vidic shoulder injury. He is lost
Are you sticking around for the Chelski?
Good on you sport!
Good goals from Crouchie today. Why wasn't he in the squad for Wednesday's match?
Could West Ham and Charlton get to safety.
Wigan and Shef U. better be worried.
West Ham do have Arsenal, Chelsea and United but...
I think he was still recovering from a nose operation after getting kicked in th face a little while ago.
I really like him
I have been listening to Talksport but I checked Five Live and it is on. I don't know why. They were off for the United game and they are going have the Watford win as well. It will probably cut off again.
It's off
That was nasty - John Terry's in the wars again. Did you notice that Jay Demerit got a start for the U.S. team Wednesday night? I didn't see the game - did you?
That should have been a handball by Terry.
CHEATS
Oooh, great overhead kick
Nah that looked for ball to hand than hand to ball - his arm didn't move. But still, you've seen them given.
Great save from Cech - they're under the cosh here.
Come on you Hornets
Shittu!
This could be a day like back in December.
Chelsea were losing to Everton and then won and United followed it up by losing to lowly WH.
Same again please.
What a run that was. Looked like Dahlgren breaking away from defense.
Nose-bleed run there.
Watford are getting their chances!!!!
More like Joel Hunter gone walkabout.
Uriah Rennie isn't calling anything today. What a plonker!
and another one.
Keep it up
Come on Foster. Keep a clean sheet and help your REAL team to the title
Come on, Watford are hopeless. Come on you Hammers!
Predictions for the Champions League matches this week?
They look pretty good right now.
They have been the top side so far.
I want West Ham to survive. It has nothing to do with this game.
I am not sure.
I hope United get a draw in Italy. Roma aren't that good but either is United's away form
I think Liverpool won't have it their own way against PSV.
I would say Bayern to knock off Milan
Valencia could give Cheslki all they can handle. They will still probably go through
Roma are taking on Milan today. Kick the crap out of each other please
You know Chelski will score soon
I reckon that it will be United, Bayern, Liverpool and Valencia in the semis.
My prediction is Liverpool to win the whole thing - they do have the European pedigree after all.
Or maybe United demoralized them this morning
Great save by Foster.
United's future #1
No chance. He'll never make it at United. When was the last time they had a starting English keeper?
That was close. Keep it tight Watford
I saw a posting that you made last week about SWP
You said it was his first goal for Chelski against Spurs.
Actually, he has scored for Chelski but only in cup competitions. He has never scored in the league!!
Half time
Watford are doing well.
Long may it continue
WHAT CHANCE FOR WATFORD!!!
BUGGER
argie bargie on the touchline
Bit of argy bargy on the touchline between Jose and Ady Boothroyd.
this is just like December.
United lose to WH.
COME ON YOU HORNETS
You're dreaming. Chelski are playing real rubbish here but you somehow just see them nicking a late goal through Drogs.
25 minutes to go
I know they will
Bollocks with a bit of a bollix with that chance. How did he miss that one - what a chance!
Bollocks WHIFFS from six yards
Chelsea are going to score any second
I think that David Pleat was applying for the England job there. Don't make me larf!
Another chance for Chels.
COME WATFORD, HOLD ON
Utter rubbish there from Bollocks - Lamps should have wellied it.
Not in an England shirt
How did that not go in?
Great saving tackle
More heroics from Demerit. He's clearly superior to Onyewu.
Under ten minutes
COME ON
Pleaty's at it again, taking credit for John Barnes's career. What a big 'ead!
Shittu....not on today's evidence.
He is looking good.
COME ON THREE MINUTES
Saved by Cech. Bugger
The cricket's starting. The Aussies have won the toss and put Bangla in.
Only 22 overs I see
England have Sri Lanka and the Aussies next.
They can't afford to lose both.
I think I figured out the Super 8s scoring.
The game against the other team that qualified from your group goes with you.
Told you so! Kalou!
I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BUGGER
Kathy is blaming me because I am the one that said it would happen
That was made by that foot in by Bollocks - might have saved their season there. Great cross from Sheva and header from Kalou - classy goal. Season on!
FT: That's it - the gap is still six points and nicely poised for the run in. Admit it, you want to see it all come down to that final match with Chelski, don't you now?
Good chatting with you today, mate. You did a masterful job staying on the blog. Well in!
That's it.
Great to spend the morning with you and neither of us got booted off.
I will be around some of the time on Tuesday but all of it for Wednesday for the CL
Cheers mate.
