have appointed Michael Appleton as coach. How does he keep getting a job? Any others who continually get manager jobs despite their record?

I'm hopefully not counting my chickens, but I can't remember the last almost euphoric air of optimism around the club, both on and off the field. From a playing perspective, perhaps for 2/3rds of the season when Edinburgh was in charge and it looked like we were heading back to the...

Entertaining stuff and going as predicted so far. England need 450+ as the pitch looks like a road. Obviously not a UK road as there’s no potholes or cycle lane.

Retiring due to Psoriatic Arthritis and Raynaud's. Yet to look it up but it sounds terrible. Best of luck to him. One member of this Board will be mortified.

Happy birthday Cas - 78 goals in 219 Gills appearances.

Wigan was 22 years ago today

This was taken from the Medway cricket FB group. 1973 I believe. Recognise Peach and Knight, but no others.

74 today. Not even the signing of Brendan Plaice can take away my fond memories.

Half time - dull to say the least

RIP at the young age of 64. I remember the 82 World Cup well when he was at his peak.

Turns 62 today

With a 4 day weekend coming up and the possibility that exercise will be banned by then, does anyone have any recommendations for decent TV to watch? I have Freeview/iPlayer and Sky, no Netflix, Amazon or anything else. I'm also an IT Neanderthal, so won't have a clue how to stream things via...

Reading their forum, Saturday's game will be in considerable doubt if the predicted weather happens.
