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!

The teams about to take the field at Bramall Lane:
Sheffield United (3-5-2) Foderingham; Ahmedhodzic, Egan, Robinson; Baldock, Norwood, Souza, Hamer, Larouci; Archer, McBurnie.
Substitutes: Davies, Basham, Trusty, Bogle, Thomas, Slimane, Osula, Traore.
Everton (4-1-4-1) Pickford; Patterson, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Young; Gueye; Garner, Doucoure, Onana, Danjuma; Beto.
Substitutes: Virginia, Lonergan, Mykolenko, Godfrey, Onyango, McNeil, Chermiti.
Referee Andy Madley.
Here's how poor these two sides have been in the opening three matches. No points between them and Everton have yet to score a goal. Both will hope that their new strikes - Cameron Archer for the Blades and Beto for Everton - will get to business right away.
Oh - Gus Hamer latched onto a loose ball in midfield and fed Cam Archer. The youngster didn't have the speed and directness to finish the chance.
Interesting to watch these two, as Leeds were in for both this summer.
GOAL! Doucoure squeezes home after a messy corner to fire Everton into the lead for the first time this season.
Lovely.
In the Championship, Millwall are 0-1 up at Brum, Sunderland are 2-0 up against the Saints and Swansea are 1-0 up over Bristol City.
Oh - Gus Hamer burst through and pulled a great shot out of Pickers.
The early one ended up 2-2 in the end; not really good enough for either side.
Halftime of the 10am kickoffs. We’re at 0-0 with Not A Big Club, struggling to break them down. Have to get full points against these mugs.
In the Prem, Brentford are drawing 1-1 with their south coast rivals Bournemouth.
Spurs are 1-2 up over Burnley.
City are 2-1 over Fulham.
And Chelsea and Forest are locked at 0-0.
Some crazy scores in the Championship, including a 5-0 Sunderland over Soton.
Coming up on the hour mark and it’s time for some changes. I’d like to see Spence.
A real rearguard action by Wednesday now.
Haaland has added a third goal for City. He’s onto four in four now.
The chances are raining in now at ER, seems like it’s one of those days.
0-0 in the end. The good news is that it’s our first clean sheet since February. The bad news is that it’s a draw at home against a relegation threatened side.
