Port Vile v Swindon pre match chat and matchday thread

[Red Frog]

I remember when these match day threads had something about them.

RIP Reg.

It's true - some old fart used to put real research into the opening MDT post. How are you holding up?

Confirmed VAR for the final

Sky Sports have now confirmed that VAR will be used in All 3 upcoming play off finals.

If we get there of course.

Burslem has some wonderful architecture and Victorian Parks. Both of which are in close proximity to the football ground. Triple Screw brewed by the Titanic Brewery is/was one of my all time favourite Real Ales. Can one of the experts amongst you tell me what year the Towns game was called off about an hour before kick off due to a frozen pitch. There was no snow/frost the night before so was in my view called off for other reasons. I also remember so many Town fans staying in the Vine pub for hours afterwards drinking Archers Ale kindly put on for visiting fans.

Don’t be such a negative nelly!

We stopped off in Stoke when the Bolton league cup replay was postponed. Just sat down for a curry and the car alarm went off. Some fuckwad smashed the back window. Fucking cold drive back from there!

Morecambe

Morecambe is on the up, if I had the money I would be buying property in Morecambe.

I’m doing good, thank you.

I have something called Fibromyalgia, which is a chronic pain condition, also chronic fatigue syndrome, and a rancid lower bowel.

First 2/3 years was difficult, spent most of it in bed watching reruns of Only Fools and Horses, Gavin and Stacey, and Friends. I blame the opiates.

Used to get regular hand cramps, so using a phone or a laptop was difficult, also get brain fog (I’m 46).

Did the riches to rags thing, went from Shaw to temporary accommodation in Toothill for 5 years, moved away from West a few years ago, now quietly living on the northern edge of the borough.

Health is better, meds have improved, things are considerably brighter than a few years ago.

Sorry to bung it all on here, only just remembered how to reply to people

I'm not familiar with your name but you seem a decent guy and I feel the pain you have been going through which is hopefully now under control.

Well don't be a stranger. We never forget an old TEFer.

Who was the poster who was increasingly ennobled as we kept winning games, was that you SR or someone else?

A league two title with Di canio after I took great care to start MDTs after getting in at 3am from the SU, and it’s all been forgotten.
