my big regret of the time really - i went to every other game you would care to name but it was my geography mock o-level that afternoon and i felt i had to go

of course looking at it from this distance i wish i had blown out the exam as it would have made no difference to the rest of my life

jim,

Alas, I suffered a similar fate and was unable to get to Brisbane Road due to being embroiled in mock O-Level examinations.

I can't recall which subject it was on that particular Wednesday afternoon though....

yes of coursei was doing mock A level wasnt I?
what good did geography do me? funny that i ended up living a couple of miles from brisbane road

frank/chris died today and i for one am really sad about it

I see the german firm adidas supplied the controversial ball to the bundesliga for the last 6 months, oh and to the adidas sponsored Argentina too. Now which two sides have been able to control it....?

it was also the first mistake green has made for england and it is not entirely his fault that england failed to beat a limited usa side.
shall we look at the anonymous and negative lampard, rooney who was dreadful etc, or perhaps we should look at the inclusion of king who hasnt been fit for years or carragher who is no longer good enough, picking milner who was ill for several days before, or replacing him with the useless swp (personal opinion) so the central midfield were light, or perhaps heskey and swp who shot straight at the keeper?
no
lets blame the goalkeeper

The real rugby pub in Richmond is The Sun, down a side road behind The Orange Tree.

Trains between Norbiton and Richmond are half hourly and take about 20 minutes. It's a 10 minute brisk walk from Norbiton to the ground. Pubs near Norbiton Station include The Norbiton and Dragon, thai food, and for good real ale plus the rugby, The Willoughby Arms.

Pubs around Kingsmeadow are not great, its not the best area. Unless strippers are your thing, this place has them lunchtimes. http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/35949/    The ground has two large bars though and there's no bother.

Cheers

and the bar at the ground has a BIG screen
