  1. He should stay off at least until he can go 10 minutes without coughing and spluttering while someone else is speaking. Downright rude and inconsiderate seeing as he knows he’s going to be doing it. Surely it’s not beyond the wit of the show’s producers and Cosgrove himself to mute his pyocherin’ for the listeners. Obviously he should actually just go ….full stop….as he’s an unfunny old bore with nothing original , interesting or even mildly amusing to contribute …..but that ain’t happening.
  2. I can remember watching that match at the time. I’m pretty sure it was actually shown live here which was very unusual in those days. I think it was in black and white (and not just because we didn’t have a colour tv) and definitely with the old style phone call from abroad commentary. We beat Chile 4-2 on that mini South American tour and added to the good performance against Argentina it continued to build the genuine feeling that we actually had a chance of doing very well at the World Cup a year later. It wasn’t all just hype inspired by Ally MacLeod…..there were serious grounds for optimism
  3. Or to put it at another way , Cosgrove getting a taste of his own medicine. Cowan is far more patient with Cosgrove when he interrupts with some desperately unfunny , smartarse comment that even Cosgrove himself isn’t that bothered about.
  4. No, no, no…….They’re just following orders by taking their whitewashing…..err, sorry…..marketing slogan to its’ logical implementation. What was it again ?………Anyone and Everyone , even Nazis.
  5. When they need to back up the myth that we only raise our game against them
  6. I’m wondering if Mowbray might previously have been involved in discussions about budgets and potential transfer activity, and pretty much knows the ball-park figure that we’d accept.
  7. Ahh…..cheers min. Seems a bit odd that the report didn’t just say that. Wouldn’t have thought “hell” was considered all that bad , even in that era
  8. “….sent him to a warm climate which is reached neither by rail nor steamer…” What’s all that about then ? ….. euphemism ?
  9. But some people are just so laxadaisacal with their use of language
  10. Presumably , “Liewell“ and the WATP sign-off were edited out before going to print.
  11. Disagree. There was a ridiculously easy pass into acres of space on the left side, , for Ryan Fraser who would have had a clear run in on goal , or at worst an option to just take it towards the corner flag.
