I almost don't care what the score is (as long as we win!), I just wish I was there. First home game of the season was always my favourite game, but these days we're always abroad at the beginning of the season. We fly back on the 30th, but we arrive too late for the game, so my first home game won't be until Kingstonian on the 9th - exactly a bloody month away!! It's sunny and hot here today, for the first time in over a week, but I'd still rather be at the Gallagher... If you would rather be at the Gallagher then you would be You old grouch! I'm 1,000 miles away. You pay my ticket and I'll be there.

If you would have rather been at the Gallagher then you would not have gone abroad or you would have paid the air fare back.Asking me to pay your airfare makes amockery of your original comment. Not sure why I am an old grouch for making a simple statement of fact.

Let's keep this going, particularly as we've made a good start eclipse! I'll second that! How about 3 points for a correct score, 1 point for a correct result predicted ( but not the correct score ) + 3 points for closest attendance. Define it as covering all home games ( league, + all cups ) & set some boring rules as to time limit for entries, organisers decision is final on possibly ambiguous entries etc. Need to set up a separate thread covering updated position which can be bumped to the top each week. Any offers for administrator, who would "own" the thread ?

Not sure why I am an old grouch for making a simple statement of fact. I'm starting to see why you're so well liked... We spend every summer abroad for family reasons that somewhat transcend football. But if you prefer your simplistic view of the world, who am I to spoil it for you?

We spend every summer abroad for family reasons that somewhat transcend football. But if you prefer your simplistic view of the world, who am I to spoil it for you? I am an old grouch and now my view of the world is simplistic. Originally, I merely pointed out that if you would have preferred to have been at the Gallagher then you would have been. You have now said that you were abroad (and hence not at the Gallagher) for reasons that transcend football. from that I am guessing that you would prefer to be abroad rather than at the Gallagher. I'm not and never was having a pop, merely stating fact. You have now shown that I was indeed correct. I will accept your apology.
