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 Tuesday evening of footer action today, lads, with another big Yorkshire derby for the Leeds boys against Hull City. Arsenal also have that irritating CL preliminary battle against Udinese. I'll only be around for the first half as I'll be jetting off to see the Motor City Madman himself tonight - Ted Nugent! Way hay!

For God's sake don't wear your funny elk costume with the antlers to the show.
If Leeds lose tonight, it will the first time since 1937 that Leeds lost their first three games!

Why aren't Arsenal interested in Sneijder?
Udinese has sold 57 million pounds of talent this summer... glad that talent isn't around

So it's our new loan signing Andy Keogh straight in at the deep end alongside Ross with Max Gradel suspended.
I'll leave the antlers at home, Gooner. Thanks for the tip!
Paul Walsh thinks it might only be a draw tonight. The rest go for a home win
Hey bob

Bury have taken the lead vs Sheffield Wednesday.
The cross from Sagna is deflected for a corner.
The Hammers are 0-1 up to Watford.
Gervinho whiffed at the ball at the far post off of a perfect corner. It should have been 2-0.
Bob... keep with the program... The United Boys Sportscenter announced that yonks ago
Leeds lively and solid at the back according to Gordon McQueen
Theo is booked for a foul. I thought it was a harsh booking.
Another goal at Portman Road... for Sotton again!!
Udinese hit the bar!!
Richard Lambert has scored his second to put Sotton 0-2 at Portman Road and Udinese could have tied it up as a shot came off the bar.
Lyon and Rubin Kazan each score
FC Twente beating Benfica
Paul Merson said the shot came from Di Natale.
Boro tie it up at Barnsley
Middlesbrough have tied it up at Barnsley.
The fake Dons take the lead at Yeovil. BOOOOO!

McCormick with the goal at the second attempt

Boro take the lead!
Udinese are getting their chances!
Charlton lead at Colchester
Ian Mellor has given Middlesbrough the lead at Barnsley after being 1-0 down.Charlton have taken the lead vs Colchester as Bradley Wright-Phillips scored.
Bloody students are messing with Dr. Dahlgren!!!
Rob Green made a great save to preserve the lead for the Hammers.
Poor Dr. Dahlgren. Did he miss that Leeds taking the lead?
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
Watford playing route 1 football. What a surprise!
Oh Dear... 1-1 at ER
I didn't see the ER update. I had to step out for a second.Not good news.
Gervinho wins a corner for the Gunners.
Hope Bob was back with students!
I thought it was a corner.
Buggggggggggger!
Bloody ads!
Sagna is down off of what appeared to be a nasty challenge.
The Championship had hardly any goals on Saturday, but lots today.
Whoa... that was close!!
Poor control by Song twice and Udinese countered as Asomoah produced a brilliant double save by Czezny.
Udinese should have scored there twice!!
Benfica have tied it up at Twente
A useless cross by Theo.
Bloody hell. I didn't realize that an og by the new signing tied it up for Hull City.
Merson said that Winston Reid missed a sitter that should have put the Hammers 2-0 up.
Merse is on the Arsenal match
Paul Walsh is watching the Hammers match
nit-picky but...
I'm back for a moment or two. It's been a real rollercoaster at ER. Great header from Ross for the opener but then our new defender Tom Lees equalized for them with an o.g. Grrr!
Dave Kitson missed a sitter for Pompey.
Where have you been? Kids?
Did you see the rumor about Beckford maybe joining Leicester?
Charlton are two up
Bradley Wright Phillips scored a second as Charlton lead Colchester 2-0.
What was the rumor, UWS?
Another of my promotion picks have FINALLY scored a goal
Forest take the lead
Sorry about that . I arrived a couple of minutes late. It is not a surprise as JB was not a regular for Everton and is a mental case. Forest take the lead at Doncaster.
Look at the 3:16 comment
Handanovic saves from a Chamakh header, but a foul was called.
Jimmy Kebe hit the corner of the post and the bar as Reading had their first great chance of the match.
Udinese have their first corner of the match.
The lively Di Natale shoots just wide as he took the corner that the Gunners should have cleared, but did not.
I did hear that JB rumor. I hope it doesn't happen. We don't want to have to face Jermaine this season.
The rumor at ER is that Mikael Forssell may be joining the club. He's training with us right now with an eye toward joining. He's 30 now but might still have some goals in him.
He could chip in with a few for Leeds.
I think I could too!
Benfica have taken the lead vs Twente . It is now 2-1.
Benfica take the lead at Twente
LEEDS TAKE THE LEAD AGAIN!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
Tom Lees has redeemed himself.
2-1!
Against the run of play apparently
YES!!!! LEEDS HAVE TAKEN THE LEAD 2-1 THANKS TO LEES WHO HAD SCORED THE OG AND AN ERROR BY A KEEPER ON LOAN FOR LIVERSOX.
Vooom! That's a bit better. We've shot up out of the relegation zone and up to 17th on the strength of that goal.
Two more chances for Pompey, but still 0-0.
We're proving good value for money again with lots of goals around the place.
In four matches we've conceded 7 and scored 6!
Bury now lead Sheffield Wednesday 2-0.
David Connolly has put Sotton 0-3 up at Portman Road.
Bloody hell - Southampton are flying!
0-3 over Ipswich. Where has this form come from!
Oh - Ross has the ball in the net but is flagged offside. Shame. Still 2-1.
Ross McCormack had a goal called back for offside.
I wonder if Sotton is the best team in the Championship and perhaps Leeds were playing the best team in the division on opening day.
About to approach stoppage time as Gibbs is booked.
I'm off lads!
Di Natale has a shot deflected for a corner.
Another short corner as there is one minute of stoppage time.
Cheers BD.
Halftime time at the EM as Middlesbrough now lead 1-3 at Barnsley.
Arsenal lead Udinese 1-0.
Leeds lead Hull City 2-1.
Sotton have a 0-3 halftime lead at Portman Road.
Carlton Cole shot at the keeper when clean through. It should have been 2-0 Hammers.
Take care Bob
I am back from taking the boys to the gym
It is Two nil West Ham
Will Arsenal still be seeded for the group stage if they go through? Could they be drawn with two big wigs
Chris the Clown looks a right fool on the astro turf as Warren Barton tries to make a point.
I am not sure if the Gunners would be seeded. Great news regarding the Hammers.
Can you believe it ? Braintree lead Grimsby 2-0 as Alan Devonshire is managing the Essex club.We would have never predicted this three years ago.
Everyone in the Sky Sports studio laughed when asked if Swansea can hold their own in the EPL?
The second half kicks off from the EM.
Di Natale has a shot blocked after dodgy defending
YES!!! SNODDY PUTS LEEDS 3-1 UP. GORDON MCQUEEN SAYS THE ON LOAN KEEPER FROM LIVERSOX SHOULD HAVE DONE BETTER.
A clumsy tackle on Ramsey
Back from sitting on the porch with the missus... Leeds are three one up!
Another chance for Udinese...they can't give away an away goal!
YES!!! WALSALL HAVE TAKEN THE LEAD AT BRAMALL LANE THIRTEEN SECONDS INTO THE SECOND HALF.
Hello UWS. It was a great block by Djourou. Leeds now lead 3-1.
How is everything with your father-in-law.
Sheffield Wednesday have scored at Bury, but still trail 2-1.
Cambridge have taken the lead against Telford
Djourou wins a corner for the Gunners.
He is back from the hospital and keeps getting more like himself.
Thanks for asking
How's Elizabeth doing?
Udinese attempt to counter, but the Gunners recover.
FC Copenhagen trail at home to Plzen 0-1.
Arsenal really need to hold Udinese here and preferably score another. They could be very dangerous in Italy
YES!!!!WALSALL NOW LEAD 0-2 AT BRAMALL LANE. BD WILL BE PLEASED.
Djourou, having just came on as a sub, has to go off with at Hammy
Carl Jenkinson is on for the injured Djourou.
PLAY UP POMPEY!

Arsene picking his nose on camera!!!

Wimbledon have take the lead at Plmouth
Trivia Question
When did United play at Home Park?
Well done Arsene!
The Tractor Boys get a goal back.. still two down
Pasquale is on for Neuton. Keith Andrews has scored for Ipswich on his home debut. Ipswich trail 1-3.
Struth... another close call for Arsenal.... Udinese have been impressive
Crawley have taken the lead vs Southend.
Yes. That was another chance for Udinese as the Gunners failed to deal with that cross/shot.
Answer my trivia question
FC Copehagen are two down at home to some nobody... I'll have them in United's group
Was it when they were banned from playing home matches in European competition due to fan behavior? I think it was in the Cup Winners' Cup in 1977 in the First round.
Well done... did you cheat? Against who? Why Home Park?
I think that tea is from the Czech Republic. I agree. I will take them in the group stages.
Now FSC's screen has frozen
No. I read it somewhere when I was in high school. I did not do any research. It was so unusual that it was hard to forget. I think we played St. Etienne and were almost banned from Europe.
Sky Sports were ten seconds behind FSC.
Correct. We had to play at Home Park because we could play less that 250 miles or so away from OT
Ipswich score again...wonder if my brother-in-law is there
Asomoah shot just wide for Udinese as Ipswich have scored a second and trail Sotton 2-3.
Did your link change to Bowls for a few seconds?
That sounds correct. I think I read it in Football Handbook. It sounds familiar.
I'll be back.. Have to go pick up the boys
I think so.Also, the match from the Em was on for a few seconds.
Cheers UWS.
Coventry take the lead at Palace with a scrappy goal.

I'm back
Any changes? Hammers three up
Sagna wins a fee kick near the corner flag.
Just read your Leeds comment
Sotton have extended their lead.. 4-2. Are they good enough to go up?
Leeds lead 4-1 and Sotton now lead 4-2 at Portman Road.
Pilzen are 2-1 up at Copenhagen
I am not sure. They might be. Norwich went straight from League One to the Epl.
My link and FSC are pretty much the same
The bloke has changed it to the match
It is 10 seconds behind
Back again to SS
Leeds now lead Hull City 4-1.
10 to go at the Em
Copenhagen are three one down
I have a feeling Sotton will be in the thick of the promotion race.
I'll give Bob a call after the matches to let him enjoy Ted Nugent to the fullest!
That was another chance Pinzi shot just wide for Udinese.
Not sure he will appreciate it. I bet you will have a good laugh about it.
This 4-1 lead has evened up Leeds goal difference
Theo wanted a penalty. Not a chance!
Twente equalize against Benfica
Twente have tied it up vs Benfica as it is now 2-2.
