Except they were!
As I've just discovered and now I'm going down the rabbit hole! In some cases liberators, in some cases murderers. Black pirates, barbary pirates taking English slaves.

I remember the zip line. impressive
do you remember the paratroopers coming in one seasons end?
they really hit the ground hard.
I guess they would, what with the wind tunnel
I remember the paratroopers. I also enjoyed when the Red Arrows have flown over disregarding the blue smoke, and just using the Red & White, Red & White, Red & White, White, White.

12 September being mooted as a likely start date for next season. Apparently, that’s the latest it can start and still fulfill all the usual fixtures - league and cups. I’d imagine the League Cup would be ditched if it can’t start on that date.

Surely this is the idea time to scrap the Football League Trophy.

Been doing that for the last few seasons without the need for a virus.

Would be very interesting to see how the injury rate is affected taking something like 10% off the length of the season. Better funded teams with larger squads would definitely have an advantage. The cricket boys might not like it, but would there be much of a problem if the season was scheduled to finish a few weeks later...say, early June? Have the Euros been delayed to 2021, or just cancelled?

Will it make much difference as don't forget years ago the FA Cup matches were replayed until there was a result and not on penalty shoot outs plus they had smaller squads and less subs

Tranmere looking at suing the EFL.
So, furlough the staff, make 20 redundant and have the funds for a legal challenge that they wont win.
Makes sense

It was against yeovil , I remember it vividly as...”
I remember it vividly as 27th August 2005, as I’d got married in the morning. Can’t remember why I sat in the North Stand though. Same weekend as the Trent Bridge test in the epic Ashes series too.

Hang on, you got married in the morning and went to a Town game in the afternoon? That's one hell of a wife* you've got there! *(or husband, tbf as I don't know your gender/orientation!)
