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!
Today's footie is pretty much a write-off for me as I've got three classes back to back this afternoon. But I'll be checking in from time to time during my class breaks with a particular eye toward our titanic Yorkshire clash against Donny in the Carling Cup 2nd Round. Come on, you Whites!
