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!
It's another big, big day in the Premiership. I'm hoping for an hour or so when I can shut my office door and enjoy the Beautiful Game in peace for a bit. If you're able to find the time too, please join me.

Hello Bob
Glad to see you are well after a rotten result on Monday.
Still, yesterday wasn't bad
I have the Pompey Game on the TV and I am about to visit Justin to watch a Soccer Special
Lovely

Big night for Fourth Place too
Let's really knock Costa for a loop!
Heya, mate. Good to have you on board. Just about kickoff time now.
Thanks for the Gillette Soccer Special link, mate.
I love being able to watch it! It keeps you up to date with everything!
Just a few words for my oldest brother Tony
PLAY UP POMPEY
POMPEY PLAY UP
PLAY UP POMPEY
POMPEY PLAY UP!!!!!
Airbus UK are losing to Bangor 0-2
Well in, Tony! Let's be having you!
Citeh are the only team in the Prem not to lose a home game this season.
Hope United take care of that in a few weeks!
0-3 Bangor City now. Woo hoo!
Already down the pub!
The landlord is at WHL tonight
It's the only scoring happening!
TWELVE minutes gone!
Airbus better get on their bike!
Liverpool could easily end up in 7th after tonight's matches. Luv it!
Heavy rain in the forecast at Fratton Park
Let' s hope everyone in white starts slipping
Sunderland have a goal disallowed for an iffy offside
Drogba hits one over!! Let's hope he continues to shoot like that
Depending on the Cup, Europa League would go down to seventh, right?
10 min gone so far so good
Looks like Villa are close to scoring.
I think so with the Europa League. My prediction is:
Champs League:
1. Chelski
2. United
3. Arse
4. Citeh
Europa League
5. Spurs
6. Pool
7. Villa
You?
Great save by James off of Lampards
Well, you've got the first one wrong for a start!
1. United
2. Arsenal
3 Chelsea
4 Spurs
5 Citeh
6 Costa
7 Villa
I knew that you'd say that!
Finally, another team scores!
Goal in the Cup... for Fulham!!
Zamora with another goal!
South Africa?
Heskey went off hurt
Blackburn have scored against Birmingham
Pompey fans singing
WEMBLEY!!
Sunderland have scored against the run of play
Lost my link
Come on... get back!
Got it back
Pompey try a short free kick and then get another one closer!
Pool fans will be applauding that Sunderland goal. That really helps them out.
Into the wall, he had a blinder of a free kick on Saturday
Watch Costa finish 4th!
They don't deserve it.
I agree but everyone else seems to want to give it to them!
Villa have disappointed me
I forgot about the Avram and Chelsea link
Goal at Villa Park
1-1
Made by Ashley Young and Carew puts it in
Villa are level - John Carew with a tap in.
BLOODY HELL!!!
David James is a wanker!!!!!
Paul Robinson whiff and Drog knocks it in
Oh dear - more calamity from David James.
Chelski 1-0 up - Drogs.
Commentators says what could he do...... how about not taking an almighty swing!!
Everton have scored against Citeh
Back to a one point gap at the top.
Pompey back to 13 points.
Everton 1-0 up. More good news for Costa.
He can't be our number 1 in SA!
Why is no one saying anything about Hart of Birmingham. He has been brilliant
Pompey free kick hits the wall again!
Are they taller than everyone?
No chance - I wouldn't even have James in my squad for SA.
From the Beeb
Everton goal: Mikel Arteta's quick free-kick finds Leighton Baines and he whips it in for Tim Cahill to guide his header through a crowd of players and home. Does no-one want this fourth spot??
He's going to go!!
Who will be the keepers?
Green- relegated?
Hart- in form
James- idiot!
At least there has been a goal in each game so far
I've have Foster, Green and Hart. I know - slim pickins but that's as good as it gets.
Malouda throws an elbow... what color?
Yellow
He led with the forearm but I think it is right
Before the goal, Pompey should have had a foul!
Ex-NE Revolution player Andy Dorman has put St. Mirren 1-0 up over Celtic. A lot of American MLS players seem to end up in the SPL.
If those are the three then it has to be Hart.
I wouldn't mind that.
Pompey player still being treated. Hast to be taken off on a stretcher
He's wearing a bloody oxygen mask!
I'm off to set up my class. Back in a tick.
Now Sturridge swings an elbow and causes a bloody nose!
Chelsea could be down to NINE
Half time at Villa Park all square
Pompey playing a man down because of the blood gusher!
This should have been scoreless and Chelsea down to ten men!!
Fulham take their lead to half
Half time on the South Coast
Pompey 0 Chelsea 1
Very luck for the Blues
Citeh are losing at half
I'm back at half-time. I'm getting really creeped out by these ads about Alzheimers. I wish they'd stop it.
I'm off again....
Spurs have tied it up
Tottenham goal: What. An. Introduction. David Bentley, with his very first touch, swings a brilliant free-kick in from the left, it avoids everyone, including the diving Vedran Corluka, and creeps into the far corner.
Malouda scores a rocket for Chelsea!
Should he have been off?
James beaten at his near post though
Points safe for Chelsea
Cambridge have taken the lead against Tamworth
Elbow man scores again!
Stop scoring!
Don't want them to get many more for GD
Chelsea are now two goals behind United
Villa and Citeh both need goals
Costa sitting and smiling at the moment
Spurs are going to Wembley!
Gudjohson scores their third
Birmingham have tied it up at Ewood Park
Celtic are two down to St. Mirren
Celtic are playing SIX strikers!!!
Drogba scores Chelsea's fourth
One goal behind United
STOP SCORING!
Pompey miss a free header inside the six yard box!!
They still have twelve minutes to tie up United
Blackburn retake the lead
Dunn scored his second
Three defenders
One midfielder
Six strikers
Three nil St. Mirren!!
Bangor City are 5-1 up!!
Tim Howard is down hurt but is up again
Malouda(the Elbow) should have scored his hat-trick
Everton double their lead at Eastland
Arteta
It's up to Villa now or just give fourth spot to Costa!
St. Mirren FOUR
Celtic 0
Hello UWS. Just home from work to view the last few minutes of the match. The scoreline is not exactly a shocker.
Dundee Utd score late against Rangers
Could knock Rangers out of the Cup
I am off to pick up Matt
The St. Mirren vs Celtic match is definitely a real upset. What a shocker.
Hayden Mullins just wide after a nice pass from Jamie O'Hara. That would have been merely a consolation. Mikkel gets a cheap yellow card for throwing the ball away.
Goal. Portsmouth 0 Chelsea 5 Lampard with a free header in the six yard box after Joe Cole crosses and Drogs flicks on a header for Lamps against tired Pompey.
Its a final Pompey 0 Chelski 5 as Avram Grant loses against his former team.
The latest from the EPL is
Citeh 0 Everton 2
Villa 1 Sunderland 1
Blacburn 2 Brum 1 is a latest score
Some more finals
the FA Cup quarterfinal replay
Spurs 3 Fulham 1
The Championship
Cardiff City 1 Sheffield United 1
Leicester i Reading 2
Wednesday coincidentally on Wednesday beat Watford 2-1
WBA 1 Coventry 0
Some more scores
Cambridge United 2 Tamworth 0
St. Mirren 4 Celtic 0 in the EPL
This is not a typo.
In the Scottish Cup Quarterfinal replay Dundee United 1 Rangers 0
Cheers everyone. I will hopefully rejoin everyone this weekend. We have 100 comments.
Chelsea win 5-0
Tie United on GD but a point behind!
Villa draw
Citeh lose
EVERYTHING ROSEY FOR COSTA DEL POOL
'Appy "Arry meeting Pompey in the semis
Take care everyone
UWs
According to my calculations,
seventh spot is guaranteed a Europa League spot. Three of the semi finalist will finish in the top seven and the other is banned from European play.
Costa is smiling again!
