If we'd have played any of our regular starting 11 we'd have been fined for a breach of competition rules by 'fielding a weakened team'.

I love it, Danger Mouse, a bit of levity for once.
A Luddite with a sense of humour next we will have Bubba telling jokes.

I had a go at playing rugby the other day.

I thought I was doing pretty well but all everyone kept saying was, "Nice try."

Condescending buggers.

What year did Halifax play Stoke in the FA cup and who was in the goal for Stoke.
Was it the year after or before when Town played Birmingham in the Cup.
Dennis Fidler, Willi Carling, which teams did they join Town from and which team did they go to.
Who was the goalkeeper who played for Town and went on to get a FA cup winners medal?

H J. Not sure about the outfield players, but the ' keeper was either Bobby Mimms who played for both 'Spurs and Everton or Terry Gennoe who played for Southampton.

Do town get paid by the BBC for 20 seconds of over exposure.
Norman have a word with your lad, going to a football match and expecting it to be interesting?
Syncranised swimming is more entertaining.

As a father I always dreaded my two sons coming home and breaking bad news to me
The two things a Dad doesn't want to hear are?
"Dad I'm gay"
"Dad I prefer Football to Rugby"
Fortunately my two sons are married and they are both season ticket holders at the "mighty Fax"
Phew!!

Re: Shaymen : Sun Nov 08, 2015 9:30 pm  

All 4 of mine have been season ticket holders and you just hope you've brought them up in the right way so that even if they aren't always watching the Fax there's always a place for them in their hearts. 3 of them still go down but not all the time but one tries to keep the fires burning.

Erm, I don't think we need these kind of old fashioned homophobic comments on here do we?

I'm sure you'll play it off as a joke but for God sake get a grip.
