I thought you were in Fiji Pete, not looking at all this rubbish

Have a Pink Lemonade Margarita for me

Just been to dinner. Awesome place, warm and have the windows open listening to Fijian band singing from the bar.

One of them even plays the ukulele.

Yeah we've been called all sorts of things over there but we're really happy with where this site is at right now.

As Hesi said, we've never banned anyone, moderated posts or anything like that. It's refreshing to see everyone acting like adults and sharing a common interest. 

Thanks everyone who takes the time to participate, we never take you for granted.

Spot on Geoff, and one of those names is a lot more Liverpool than the other.

You might be ok - Virgil doesn't have a great second-up record, and you were winding up nicely over the final stages yesterday.

Kloppite on RC. Mo Salah on BOAY.

Well done Radars. Top effort.

Was thinking the same thing, Maxi. 😊

Sharne's team the clear hot favourites to win this thing … but hopefully they'll be fartooslow when my team comes up against them.

Gonna be a great comp.

Stop tipping us Howie. We're supposed to be Under The Radar!

Which one of you is that?

Virgil and Hesi

Saved Hesi 😁

Oh I nearly did mate.

Online but hasn't posted

It's hard to shake the feeling that Ian Foster is being lined up as the next AB coach and equally hard to escape the feeling that he is the cause of a lot of the problems with the ABs at the moment.

I'm struggling to work out how he's ended up in this favoured position based on his largely uninspiring coaching record.

Others may disagree.

It's also impossible to understate how important Brodie Retallick is at the moment. It's all gone quiet on his expected return which is slightly ominous.

Just for Rees...

I think of Bodega Bay in Hitchcock's "The Birds". Dive bombing seagulls and exploding petrol stations.... sounds like your sort of thing Rees ☺️

Dive bombing Seagulls PJ?

That's what my beloved BHA did to Watford on the weekend..

(We're called the Seagulls for the uninitiated)
