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!

Bournemouth unveiled their new signing - Tyler Adams (sigh) - before the start of this match. They also scooped us on picking up Max Aarons for Norwich, damn them.
Oh - new boy James Maddison was in there. Should have finished it but Neto kept it out with his feet and Aarons cleared.
GOAL! Maddison does get his goal then. Nicely worked move by Spurs.
Spurs go in 0-1 up at the interval, which suits me as I picked the Cherries for the drop.
0-2 Spurs in the end then. Happy with that.
I'll be watching the Arsenal match on USA, as there is no coverage of the Ipswich v. Leeds match.
Wow! Our new boy Joel Piroe is straight into the side, alongside our two want-away bad boys Willy Gnonto and Luis Sinisterra.
Kick off time!
Well, that was the most extraordinary first half. It's just a shame that ESPN+ opted for Coventry v. Sunderland rather than this one. It was inevitable that we'd concede early - this time a Joe Rodon own goal that had a whiff of off-side to it. But then our front line exploded, with goals from Georginio Rutter, Willy Gnonto and new boy Joel Piroe. Ipswich got another back just before the interval. 2-3!
Second half starting up now. Drameh has come off and Jamie Shackleton has come on. He's our Swiss Army knife.
That's interesting about Cody. He was only brought on to cover for the injured Sam Byram. Now he's been yanked early on in the second half. I expect Cody to leave this week.
Ipswich have their tails up - we need to get the momentum back.
Arsenal are being frustrated by their London compatriots Fulham, who scored early after a defensive error. Still 0-1 there.
It's clear that our front line it hot to trot if we're able to keep Willy, Luis and Cry on board. But we need help in the back.
Arsenal have a penalty - Saka to take...
Sticks it away no problem. 1-1!
Oh - Rutter plays in Piroe who's denied by the Ipswich keeper.
2-4...great day for you
