My uncle bought me a pint of Youngs Ordinary in that pub behind Selhurst Park. I would have been around 14.
Schooldays in Hammersmith meant it was mostly London Pride after that. |

I had Cardiff,Luton and Plymouth going down. Leeds top, Sheffield Utd second and then Burnley, Sunderland, Coventry and WBA in the playoffs. We finish 15th. I’d love to see Stoke go down but I have them drawing with Derby on the last day. That could be a real squeaky bum time, that one. |

Yes, great video, really enjoyed it.
Not a lot of people realise that Acton is the only suburb of London to have train/tube stations for all four Primary compass points (plus Town, Central and Main Line for good measure). |

We turned Bridgerton off after 20 minutes.
Have never seen an East Enders or Corrie episode all the way through.
Got bored with Casualty after Brenda Fricker left. |

My brother in law made 6 nesting boxes for us a couple of years ago. I out them up round and about. I have cleaned out the used nests each year but have not done the boiling water thing. All have been occupied every year. Our wood pigeons eat everything we put out on the ground but are the weediest birds ever. They fly off at a moments notice. The pheasants don’t care though. They just carry on eating. There is a family of woodpeckers that use the feeder mounted on a pole (the wood pigeons can’t reach it). Also chaffinches, great tits, blue tits, various finches etc. |

For me the biggest change was Youngs moving the brewing away from Wandsworth. It’s never been the same since. |

Am I the only Latymerian on here? HQ floodlights visible from the playing field (corner of Wood Lane and Du Cane Road. We used to get sent for a run round Wormwood Scrubs when the rain made the pitches unplayable. |

Watched it ‘as live’. It seems to be winding up and then Trump said ‘one last question’. Vance piled in and it all went pear shaped. Vance is the real danger man here. While Trump just riffs away and can almost be led to the right answer (Starmer did this rather well, actually) Vance has an agenda and it isn’t pretty. Moreover, he is still relatively young. He could be on the political scene for decades. That is truly frightening. Europe needs to get its act together really fast. US isolationism in the 1920’s and 1930’s enable the rise of the militaristic dictatorship in Japan and the fascists in Europe which led to WW2. Now it is Trump and Vance who seem to want WW3. I |

I liked The Colbys because Katharine Ross was in it. Never seen an episode of East Enders all the way through. |

Yes, what a great goal it was. My only time in Upton Park. I seem to recall that Brooking played us off the pitch in the first half. The second half was a different story. |

Venables. That is a good call. Organiser, motivator, free kick artist, visionary. A football genius. Or Super Ray Wilkins. |

For me there was a bit too much passing around the back 4. I think their first goal was the result of one sideways pass too many. Some of Nardi’s roll outs gave me heart failure.
We had our chances though-their keeper made a decent save and Paal’s free kick came back of the bar. 3 inches lower and it goes in.
We ran out of energy in the second half.
Onwards and upwards. |

I went to that game too. Had to duck under the seat as the coins started flying. At the end there was a pitch invasion from 3 sides of the ground. I don’t think the Leeds massive wanted to say ‘hard luck chaps’. Suddenly a squad of coppers appeared from nowhere and chased them all away. That was a scary moment. We were kept in for a LONG time. I think it was their biggest crowd for years. Was certainly loud when their winning goal went in. |
