Hissing Sid

Veteran who was pitchside here. The Act of Remembrance is Last Post followed by a period of silence. (Formal activities then have the bugler play Reveille). We were informed just prior to going pitchside that the LP and silence was what would happen. It clearly didn't. @TIL 1010 is correct, there were many very annoyed Veterans afterwards. To many, the actual silence is sacrosanct. And yes, the issue has been taken up with the club.

So it wasn't to be. Ajax have now been added to the (long) list of clubs that have been crossed off the Xmas card list!!! As @nutty nigel says, everything has to fall into place for the 6 to win. This week it seemed nothing did! Especially my pick, yet another top v bottom failure 🤣 So thanks again to Nutty for allowing me the honour of having a go, congrats again to The Bald One for adding to the pot, and thanks to all you PUPs for your picks.

Well, that didn't go very well did it!!! Onto Europe...we go again. Well done TBO66, more in the pot 👏

£5 per league goal scored by a recognised defender (ie, Hanley, Aarons, Gibson, Omibamidele, McCallum, Giannoulis, Byram) £30 for promotion however it comes, £20 bonus for the title and another £20 if those down at the southern end of the A140 remain in Division 3.

Another season of top v bottom let downs coming right up 😂 Also, I've renewed the PUPs Super Six league if anyone fancies it. If you were in it last season you'll be in. If not, and you fancy it the code is YXLD8T. No prizes, just a bit of fun. £10 winging its way to you @nutty nigel

So we lost the lot. That's got to be worth a tenner which will be winging its way to you shortly @nutty nigel

First up I'd like to add my huge thanks to PUPanon for your generous contributions these last 9yrs. So, out with a bang... Over 4.5 goals, Kane to score, Pukki to score, over 2.5 cards. Best of luck...
