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!
Ah...Saturday morning. I'm taking a break from it all for a couple of hours to have a look at FSC's coverage of the Chelsea match this morning. Of course, I'll also be keeping a close eye on Gary McAllister's debut as Leeds manager as the Whites host Tranmere Rovers. We could use that vaunted "New Manager Bump."

Good Morning Robert
The Arse are winning at Citeh with 15 minutes to go.
I guess Leeds didn't lose their star striker!!
Rumors!!
Morning, Dave. I just saw that free kick from Ronaldo on the preview show. Cor.
Glad to hear it. We need Jermaine for the run in.
Quite a strike from Ronny.
Top corner and James didn't move!!
All Arse at Eastlands but I am still holding out hope of a lucky Blues goal
Unite recall Hargreaves, Giggs and Tevez. Not a shabby trio
I am still a little nervous about today's game.
We do well down there but...
Spurs 9m pound full-back Hutton starts for the Whites. A good time to score a debut own goal!!
The Arse has just scored their third.
Three points up. Now it is United's turn
Adebayor again.
What a team Ronaldo and Adebayor would make!!!
Swansea are goalless at half time. Have you given up with them and admit they are too far away
I do think Swansea are out of touch but it did help us to have them pegged back by Forest in mid-week. We'll see. Would love to see a draw from them today. If they could a little cold, it could only help.
What do you think of Alexandre Pato? He's not the most clinical finisher - he tends to snatch at chances. But he also seems to always be in the right place to grab a chance. You can't teach that.
The final whistle has gone in the day's early kick-off in the Premier League and Arsenal have become the first team to win at Eastlands in the league this season, with a 3-1 victory with goals from Adebayor and Eduardo against Manchester City.
I haven't seen much of Pato.
I have had problems listening to manutd.com commentary lately but I am listening to this week
I have so many windows open on my computer there isn't any room.
I have the SkySports Score Center
Soccernet Gamecast of United. United's commentary, BBC and LOB!!!
Come on POMPEY
You are a multitasker. And so am I. I'm trying to finish a couple of my student teaching observation forms while I'm watching the match.
Oh, I'm flying up to Maine this week for an interview. Wish me luck!
Let's hope for Gary Mac factor
Fingers crossed
Let's hope Defoe does well today. He always seems to score on his debut
Baros should have done better there
What do you account for in the Ballack renaissance - no Lamps around to crowd him out?
The Tractor Boys have taken the lead away from home!!!
No one wants to be promoted!!
WBA are losing at home to Burnley
I think Bollocks has enjoyed no Lamps. Should be interesting when he gets back
Prem still goalless
I reckon they'll sell Frank in the summer. Along with a bunch of others.
James almost becoming Dracula again
The Tractor Boys have been pegged back
From 365: "Dropping into League One and Leeds are on top in Gary McAllister's first game as boss against Tranmere but it's also 0-0 at Elland Road."
Still goalless at Swansea
Why would Harry Redknapp sell Benjani? He's been their best player this season. Crazy.
I totally agree. I don't understand it
Of course, he may not be gone.
Still no goals in the top division
Only two in the Championship
Two in L1
Six in L2
WHERE ARE THE GOALS!!!
BUGGER
Berba just scored!!!
Bournemouth are beating Forest
Oh dear. Still, you can count on Ronny for a couple, eh?
Good old Bournemouth.
Walsall are beating Carlisle. I guess a draw would be best in this game. They are both above Leeds.
Bolton have a pen at Reading
It's saved
United are playing pretty bad right now
Marcus Hahnemann with a good save there.
Swansea have taken the lead.
I think they are gone
Bournemouth have scored a second
I agree.
Carlisle vs. Walsall is the big match in League One today and the away side have taken the lead, thereby bumping Doncaster out of second spot.
Orient are losing to Southend
United are being totally outplayed
Ron should have just scored a header
Carlisle have equalized
Bolton have taken the lead at Reading
Coppell's men could be in trouble
A header from Bollocks cleared off the line!
He can really head the ball!!!
That should have been a pen and then off the bar!!!
Bugger
From 365: "Tottenham are still on top against Manchester United and nearly double their lead when Berbatov fires a volley just over the top from inside the box."
Not good.
Oldham have tied it up at the Swans
Lovely jubbly!
Free kick chance for Spurs. Huddlestone hits the wall
Doncaster have taken the lead at The Den
From 365: "Manchester United's Patrice Evra falls to the ground after tangling with Lennon in the Tottenham box. The referee waves play-on and that looks like the right decision."
Patrice taking lessons from Ronny?
Swansea have taken the lead again
Good save by James
Shut it
What was the song about Cashley?
He's here, he's there, he's shooting everywhere?
Half time at Fratton Park and WHL
Same second half as last year please
Not a lot of goals in the Prem. today. Boring, boring Chelsea!
Wigan have scored a late goal against the Hammers.
Sorry Sir Trev
It's all over at Swansea. They've extended their lead to sixty points, although of course we'd be level with them if not for the points deduction.
I'm quite enjoying the Super Sunday Plus show on Sunday afternoons but why is there no drinking allowed in the Bass Pale Ale Pub?
All the games underway again
Carrick is on for Hargreaves
Pompey should have scored there
Why didn't Milan hammer it
Defoe is hopeless and what was Baros playing at there. I could've scored that one!
Orient have tied it up with Southend.
That would be another good result as well
United making a few more chances
Spurs go close to a second with a deflected shot
Southend score again at Orient
Pompey having some chances.
Was it pen and then bleeding Chelski go down at score
Surely a penalty there. Definite handball by Makalele...
And then Anelka scores at the other end. Good finish from Nic but the Pompey fans will not be happy there.
Bolton have scored a second at Reading
Maybe it didn't hit the hand.
The one in the first half did
Uh oh
Tranmere have taken the lead
Not a good day for both of us
There's still time
Nope. Bugger! Come on Gazza - get the boys playing!
Bollocks may be hurt but this is wasting a lot of time.
You know it never get the same amount added at the end
Nice knew look for Bollocks
Yes
Defoe with a goal. A debut goal to boot
Pretty lucky finish. It went under Cech
COME ON BOTH UNITEDS!!!!!!
McAllister out?
Off with his head
Off with his head
Birmingham have taken the lead against hopeless Derby
Ipswich are leading on the road!!!
Pompey survive!! How?
15 minutes to go at the Lane
Anderson almost scores for United.
Good save by Cerny
Carlisle have taken the lead
I just talked with my mom and she's got a special supplement from the Guardian on the Munich disaster that she's going to send to me and I'll send on to you.
Defoe should have scored again
Defoe....hopeless.
Doncaster have scored again
SWP should have scored as well
Typical English finishing at both ends
SWP and Defoe showing just how much work Fabio Capello's got ahead of him.
Cor, that was a XXX challenge from Makalele. Should've been a straight red. No excuse for that.
3 minutes of added time at WHL
Derby have scored late
1646: Wayne Rooney is booked for diving and will miss next week's Manchester derby. A similar fate befell City's Elano earlier in the day.
Great save from James
VDS up for a corner
UNITED HAVE SCORED!!!!!!!!!
LAST SECOND
LAST KICK OF THE GAME
Two points dropped but I will take that!!!
Think it is Tevez
Sorry about your lot
Bolton have beaten Reading
All over at Fratton Park
Orient tied it up with Southend
Ipswich win away for the first time
Sounds like an own goal from Dawson there. Good for your lot. Not so much for mine. Our season was premised on the idea of a solid bond in the team. That's been destroyed by Poyet and Wisey leaving. Not sure where things will go from here. We've dropped to eighth and two points out of the qualifying spots but even more worrying we haven't won in several games now.
Not a great day.
My lot have dropped to second
Leeds have dropped to 8th!
Come on Gary M. Sort it out
"she's here, she's there,
we've seen her underwear,
Ashley's bird, Ashley's bird"
