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!

No Giggs as he is in his coaching capacity today in his first match as a forty something.
Good morning. Son woke up at 4:45, then went back to sleep. I'm hoping for draws and red cards today ;)
Both teams have done better than expected in Europe, but have disappointed in the league .
The Yirgacheffe is hot, the game is on.
They're off from the lane.
COME ON MAN UNITED2
An early Spurs corner. De Gea punches the corner from walker.
Tim Howard and his beard providing analysis.
Good morning Someone. I was hoping you would cheer for United. I was happy to see Everton win yesterday.
I thought he would be clean shaven as no shave Movember has ended.
Anything to keep Everton in the four spot today.
Howard's been growing that thing for a few months now
Despite my earlier statement , United's league form has improved.
Good point, Someone. You must be hoping for the same wen Chelsea host Sotton and hope that Liverpool lose to Hull City. Both televised today.
Evra lectured by Mike Dean for a trip on Lennon.
The Southampton/Chelsea could be a fine match.
I always hope the 'pool lose.
Both teams mucking about here early
I agree with all three statements. I hate the Pool too.

Spurs mounting a weak attack. De Gea with an easy save on Lennon's left footer.
How is your family?
Promising United attack as Roon had a shot blocked off a pass from Valencia as Roon initially won a tackle.
We're ok MUR. Son is in an odd sleep cycle. Woke up about 4:45, when I got up to check on him he was standing at our bedroom door. We went back to his room and he fell back asleep. I have no idea if something scared him or not.
Wife is fine. Horrible accident in Glasgow with the helicopter hitting the bar. No one we knew was there though.
Oh dear, Walker off a free kick.Right under the wall.
How are you and yours?
I went to top off my coffee and Spurs have a free kick in a great position and
BLOODY HELL!
KYLE WALKER SCORES FROM A FREE KICK AND WHAT THE HELL WERE THE PLAYERS IN THEWALL THINKING AS THEY JUMPED AND HE SHOT UNDER THE BLOODY WALL. HE SCORES FROM A REALLY SHITE FREE KICK.
Hope everything is okay with your son. Glad your wife is doing well. I heard about the accident in Glasgow and am really sad about what happened. Our family is doing well. The wife and two daughters are still asleep, the dog is asleep , and the cat just had breakfast ,and is resting. Thanks for asking.
Since the goal United's defending has been really shaky.
Everyone's sleeping. Sounds about right. Waking my son up at the half.
Except the Man U wall, who jumped badly.
United win a corner off of Chiriches.
Poor corner from Roon cleared by the first man.
Another United corner from Roon that is headed away.
Agreed, Someone. The wall was a sick joke. If the players stood still then the really poor free kick would have been blocked. Sounds about right with your son. I think you are an hour ahead of us.
The dog just woke up, asking to be let out back.
Chadli wins a corner off of Smalling , who should have cleared the initial cross.
Pets first, followed by spouses then children.
This might be a two cup of coffee morning.
United trying to mount an attack. Spurs have a great chance at a counter but Soldano fires high.
Correct, Someone. The dog came back in and went right back to bed. well stated about the coffee.
Great block by De Gea from Lennon. Thankfully , his return pass went astray.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

Nice ambition by Jones, who smashes it into the box just ahead of Rooney.
One minute if stoppage time. The corner from Roon is headed away. Spurs clear and it's 1-1 at the half.
Off to wake up the boy.
Enjoy. Will you be around for the second half?
He's eating breakfast and I'm here for the second half.
The second half is underway from WHL.
COME ON MAN UNITED!
Chiriches tackles Valencia as United win a corner and a hand ball is called against United.
Excellent. Should be an exciting second half.
Roon can't cross either.
As UWS and I mentioned , Valencia can't cross and this time he can't even win a corner.
Whoa. Sandro with a massive blast into the top right corner. Nothing could defend that shot. 2-1 Spurs.
BLOODY HELL!!!! UNITED GAVE SANDRO THE FREEDOM OF WHL AS CLEVERLEY BACKED OFF AND SANDRO TOOK ADAVANTAGE WITH A GREAT FINISH IN THE UPPER 90. NOW 2-1 SPURS.
WAY HAY! UNITEDHAVE A PENALTY AS LLRIS TRIPPED WELLIE IN THE BOX. A BOOKING FOR LLORIS.

Spurs wall did not jump.
Great pass to Valencia, who can't cross
Great pass from Evra and Roon cannot connect as it goes off the corner flag for a goal kick.

DON'T JUMP UNITED!
Townsend on for Lennon. The LUFC connection continues.
No need to jump as Walker's free kick goes well high and wide.
PHEW! The curling free kick from Walker went just wide.
Smalling fouls Soldado.
Dafoe warming up and Arlo mentions that he is linked with a moved to Toronto FC in the January transfer window. That will blow his chances of being on the plane to Brazil this summer or will it?
OH! Wellie got past Dawson down the left off a long ball from Clever Boy, but the pass went astray and that could have been the lead for United
Phil Jones called for a trip on Vertonghen. A late call by Mike Dean.

And United counter as Chicha is on for Wellie.
BUGGER!
Brendan Rodgers just stated that my GBB will be out six to eight weeks with ligament damage!
Chicharito in for Welbeck.
I've seen the DeFoe to TFC rumors, he does not have anyone on that team to get him the ball. I'm not taking it too seriously.
GBB? Is that Sturridge out 6-8 weeks?
Evra booked for a foul on Townsend.
Yes it is Sturridge. That will not help me in the PPP. Good point about Toronto.
Great Spurs counter led by Walker , but his cross was too far for Townsend. Started off a poor United corner.
I'll have to sell him in my fantasy league. I got enough in reserve to pick up Rooney.
Jones booked for a foul on Dembele just outside the box as he easily dispossessed Roon.
DON'T JUMP UNITED! They don't and the free kick from Dafoe is easily blocked.

Chicharito blocks it.
Good choice. also Suarez would be a great signing for your team as he is currently on a roll.
Vertonghen wins a Spurs corner when the replay shows it should be a goal kick.
Dawson heads the corner off a United player for another. Roon heads away the next corner then Spurs are called offside.
Nani on for Kagawa. Bob will be pleased.
When did Young come on? That's it for United in terms of subs.
Siggy for Chadli and that's the final roll of the dice for both gaffers.
I could never pick Suarez :)
Four minutes and stoppage. Will anyone net a winner?
COME ON UNITED!
GET A LATE WINNER!
I completely understand. A former Toffee will help though!

Danny Graham came on for the excellent Sagbo.
El Mohammedy should have had a fourth as he shot wide with just Mignolet to beat and now George Boyd is on for Robbie Brady.
