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!

1916: Still waiting for full team news from Old Trafford but it seems Sir Alex Ferguson has gone for an attack featuring Ronaldo, Tevez and Saha - but no Rooney. Darren Fletcher is at right-back, while Gerard Pique gets the nod ahead of Patrice Evra...
1913: TEAM NEWS Tottenham v Chelsea
Chelsea include Ricardo Carvalho, Michael Essien and Claude Makelele at the expense of Alex, Michael Ballack and Jon Mikel Obi. Petr Cech isn't ready to return so Carlo Cuducini continues in goal. Tottenham pick the same line-up that started the Carling Cup final.
United's team in full
Kuszczak(surprised it is not Foster)
Pique
Vidic
O'Shea
Fletcher
Ronaldo
Hargreaves
Anderson
Nani
Saha
Tevez
Rooney and Scholes on the bench.
I hope SAF doesn't regret this team.
Wotcher, Dave! I can't share your enthusiasm for the Red Devils this afternoon, but I am with you for the match. Should be an interesting afternoon.
You can't share my enthusiasm?
Then BUGGER OFF!!!!
This is a Red Devil afternoon!!
Seriously, glad that I have some company. I wonder if Chelskilad will be around or will he be down the Worly.
He did take Mike to the airport this morning as Mike jetted off to Malaysia for Johnny Hates Jazz
I dunno, it could be a Chelski Blues afternoon too. You never know. Wouldn't count me chickens quite yet.
Well done, Mike. Hope he enjoys his trip to Southeast Asia as much as I did. I off to less exotic climes tomorrow - Indiana.
Surprisingly, Five Live has the United game and not the Chelsea Spurs game. I know it will be blacked out but still.
I will probably be turning on talksport to hear updates.
Ronaldo is captain.
Seven changes from Saturday.
Pique, Vidic, O'Shea, Hargreaves in the back four.
Not a strong defense!!
Serie A update.
Milan are two nil down at home after 25 minutes!! Let's hope they don't make the Champions League!!
And we are off at OT
I'm constantly amazed by that free kick that Ronaldo scored. It's more incredible than the strike that Roberto Carlos hit against France in the Tournoi because you could understand the physics of that one. He just hit it sweetly with the outside of his left boot and it swung a hell of a lot because the ball was lightweight. But Ronaldo's - I just don't physically get it. With the way that he struck it, you'd expect that it would have kept rising, but it went up and then down again with pace. I don't get it at all.
It was amazing, did you hear that he hits at the valve so it moves more!!
Milan are toast. No Scudetto, no Champs League action. Could be Mourinho will be moving there next season.
Bloody Hell.. Chelski have scored already!!
Drogs with the goal
Yeah, but that still doesn't account for what the ball did.
Pretty defensive line-up from Avram Grant today.
Five minutes gone and no score - disappointed?
Chelski have a another goal called back for offside
Wow, so much for the defensiveness.
After Saturday's display, I will take a 1-0
Ronaldo has scored!!!
YOU BEAUTY!!!!
FSC are behind the radio, the buggers
You're obviously ahead of the action there. Scrappy goal there. Bolton look pretty rubbish at the back. Carlito should have scored a minute ago. You'll get more than one tonight.
32 goals!!!!!
Where's Matt Taylor when we need him?
Plenty of noise today from the Prawn Sandwich contingent.
Yes, Woodgate has tied it up at WHL
Another Leeds prodigy
Good old Woody!
That's two in two for Woody against Chelski
I am glad that Anelka is not playing for Bolton today. Of course, he isn't even on the bench at WHL! Why?
Decent chance there for Bolton - were you scared?
Phew!!!
Good Save!!
Because Avram's an idiot.
Come on Ron, amaze Dahlgren again!!
Here comes Ronaldo with a free kick. Will he hit it on the valve again?
Bloody hell!
THANK YOU!!!
Were you amazed!!!
Amazing how that ball moves!!
Same technique again. Okay, I saw a little bit better what he did there. I think that it's the short backlift combined with no follow through. He almost skips at the end of it. If I were still a kiddie, I'd be out in the backyard trying to replicate it.
Chelsea have taken the lead again
I am amazed. It takes the keeper right out of it because the keeper has to cover a conventional strike that swings toward the left side a la Beckham and if Ronaldo notices the keeper cheating that way and he can hit it straight up and down like that, the keeper has no chance at all.
From the Beeb,
Five goals in 20 minutes... what the...?
Essien with Chelski's second there.
Long may the keeper have no chance continue
2026: That goal means Cristiano Ronaldo equals George Best's 32 goals in 1968 - the best ever mark by a United winger.
I'd love to see Bolton go down rather than Fulham. They're complete rubbish.
What's the news on the job front?
Is he really a winger though in this current line-up?
It's almost too complicated to discuss. I'm keeping Fredonia waiting until Friday to see if I can scoop up a better offer at Indiana State. It's going to be nailbiting stuff.
I think they will both go down but I agree
I don't like what Fulham did to Chris Coleman and brought it Sanchez
I don't want you to go to Indiana!!!
Guthrie has had some good crosses from the right
Why is Spitty Diouff getting booed by your lot?
Yeah, I know but you're not going to spoon me at night, are you now?
Celtic knocked out of the Scottish Cup at home last night by Aberdeen.
Rangers being held at home at half time tonight by Partick Thistle
El Hadji is an ex Liverpool player.
No, I am not going to spoon you,... EVER
Great dribbling by Tevez
Another great run from Tevez, Nani should have hit it first time
Gary Megson teams are "no surrender teams." Since when?
I know, how many times has his teams been relegated!!
Bolton is getting the ball in the box but not hitting anyone. I hope one doesn't find someone in white accidentally.
Some Schumacher action there from the United keeper.
Saha is useless tonight
Too far out for Ron??? Maybe not
He should have shot after that chip
Come on United, don't give away a silly goal before half
oohh, United could have had six in that attack!!
Half Time at Old Trafford.
Happy chappy so far!
Half time in London as well
United's Champions League foe is leading in the Rome derby. They are on fire. I am nervous !!
Cashley should have been sent off at WHL
He only got a yellow after a shocking tackle. He had a hisyfit for getting a yellow. Poyet has some words for him in the tunnel.
It was was high and late!!
2051: While I was being horrified by Ashley Cole's attempt to break Alan Hutton's leg, I omitted to tell you that a lovely United passing move ended with John O'Shea volleying wide.
The radio also said that Cashley turned his back on the ref. I would send off someone that did that to me.
Nice English on the last post Dave!!
Milan get a goal back with less than 20 minutes to go
Let's just get through this half and concentrate on Liverpool on Sunday.
Since when are they playing games on Sunday and not on Easter Saturday and Easter Monday?
Uh oh, Nicky Hunt is coming on!!!
I hope that sarky comment doesn't come back and bite me!!
Saha is pants!!!
Free kick chance to United
Too close?
Nani takes it, nice save
Rangers are losing in the Cup
Come on United.
Bolton are having some possession here
I'm back - did I miss anything?
Lots of hatred toward Cashley there - are you a Gooner in disguise?
It's not me, it is the Beeb
Not much happening.
Rangers have tied it up
Bugger Chelski!! J. Cole has scored Chelski's third.
Phew, that was a nice free kick but they had to wait for the kick.
Thank YOU!!
What is Tevez doing back there? I thought that may have been a pen until I saw the replay
I am not liking what I am seeing.
There is that Hunt comment coming back to haunt me. Nice shot and save
Berba scores for Spurs.
They are back in it!!
What Hunt comment?
What a cracker at Shite Fart Lane! We should be watching that. This is a foregone conclusion.
Frank Worthington - they don't make 'em like him anymore. Fantastic sideburns.
Read back.
I don't think this is foregone!! Bolton are scaring me.
Setanta probably have the other one
Great run by Ron.
How do you back off him all the way into the box
I think I have said this but... Saha is PANTS!!
Have some sympathy - I think he's done his hammy.
Why would Nicky Hunt bother you lot, sarky comment or not?
75,000 - that's a load of prawn sandwiches, eh?
He always does his hammy, groin, shin, toe, ankle...
Who's on the bench for you? Why it's Mr. Potato Head, that's who. Rooooooon!
United bringing on some iffy subs.
Roon and Scholsey on for Anderson and Pants
Nice tackle there from Grandpa Scholes!
Scholes hacks someone down with his first action
Milan have lost. Lovely
Darren Bent is on for Ledley King
2132: Paul Robinson rolls the ball out... to Ashley Cole, who attempts an audacious lob which spins wide. Not sure Fabio's going to be too impressed with Robinson tonight.
ooh, Lazio have taken the lead against Roma
I'm surprised that Juande have kept any faith in Robbo. He'll be off in the summer. We'd take him back on a free.
YES!!!
SPURS SCORE THE EQUALIZER!!
Huddlestone with the goal!!
Rangers are held in the Cup
Milan are still in it because Fiorentina also lost today to Napoli. Looking good for Inter even though they're out of form.
Excellent news for the Gooner!
Roma have tied it up
What do you think about Cardiff and the UEFA Cup?
Great move by Nani and then a hopeless cross
Crybaby Ronaldo complaining about his toe being trod on. Waaaaa!
What do you think I think about Cardiff and UEFA. No!
Bloody Hell
CHELSEA HAS SCORED AGAIN!!!!
J. Cole
Here's your danger man - Giannopopodopolopolous!
Useless Nani!!!
Excellent shot there Nani and Fergie's not happy.
Rooney is really peeved with that.
Gooner not best pleased.
United's shooting boots have been left in the dressing room!!!
Gordon Bennett. That was close!!
I just looked up the schedule. League 1 and 2 have matches on Saturday and Monday
I don't see Leeds on Monday though
YES!!!
SPURS HAVE TIED IT UP AGAIN!!!
KEANO!!!
Why didn't we have this game????
Bolton have done very well this half.
I have been nervous.
2149: GOAL Tottenham 4-4 Chelsea
Oh my word. Seriously. Oh my word. Robbie Keane curls an absolute pearler into the top corner. What a goal.
Why was that Bolton's goal disallowed?
I know, it is at Old Trafford.
That's it at Old Trafford.
Three points clear at the top.
Let's hope Spurs can hold on
4-4! Gooner is in dreamland!
They are going to show the goals at WHL!! Will they have time????
It's over.
A good day for me.
Now for Liverpool
Off to eat
Great to spend the afternoon with you.
LET'S GO FREDONIA!!!
