'Shola is in the Building' - Good News Gordon 'Beating (can't remember the name of the club) could relegated us!' First Wizard Grefsted claiming he could tell more about the game because he had a bigger TV. It was West Ham during Chris Hughton's tenure. Definitely the most memorable post I can think of!

shefcanary 2,444 Posted January 16 40 minutes ago, Barham Blitz said: Thanks TGS - as @Petriix responded that is excellent company to be in and I'd agree that would also rate all three of you as posters that I would always look out for - we seem to share a similar footballing world view which probably helps. I'd obviously also add in @ricardo not just for the excellent match reports but also for his occasional interjections as the forum's voice of reason who reminds us all when necessary as to the reasons why we all support this little club of ours (often despite everything.) I also like posters who are able to add to my own meagre sum of knowledge - @shefcanary and @PurpleCanary in particular on the finance threads - and @Parma Ham's gone mouldy who often makes me see things a little differently in terms of the footballing side of things. His Masterclass and State of the Nation Threads have consistently been the most thought-provoking things on this forum and seem to attract more reasonable and reasoned discussion and less shouting into the void and feuding than some of the threads on here. True Grit will always remain the pinnacle of Forum posting for me though Clive, albeit run close by whoever it was that used to claim that they had a greater insight into the game because their bigger screen TV would show more of the action ... Pleased to be of service @Barham Blitz. I do appreciate your well thought through posts which always attempt to take the emotion out. Cheers bud. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surprised he's not been mentioned yet. I appreciate the call out but most of my posts are pretty mid, stream of consciousness and usually fueled by emotion mid-game and I use my phone to post so auto correct combined with me tapping away quickly tends to make me read quite awkwardly at times. Aside from the obvious top posters like Parma and Ricardo I'd like to shout out @Robert N. LiM and @Petriix for posts that i really enjoy personally. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TV commentators not knowing a damn thing about us, so our players got called Christoph Stiepermann or Marco Zimmerman. Idiots, but it made me laugh. I cant wait until we get promoted again so we can watch Marcelino Sara and Gabriel Nunez tearing it up in the PL 🤣 Edited January 17 by Christoph Stiepermann 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
