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!

Tuesday in the League

Afternoon, chaps - we've got a couple of interesting encounters in the Prem and a full slate of Championship matches to occupy us today. I'll have my attention firmly focused on Elland Road, where plucky Leeds take on Leicester City. Saturday's heroics against Palace have given me a bit of hope for this one. Come on, you Whites!

Right then - I'm done for the night in more ways than one. But the Mighty Whites have had an excellent day. Another tight win, which lifts us to 15th, but still only 6 points off the qualifying places. We're at 26 points, so we're more than half-way to safety. Becchio has added his 14th goal, which includes five penalties - all scored, btw.
