Oh, what’s this! A goal has been had! That little gazelle Bulot (of whom I am becoming so very fond) has changed his snow shoe – this time channelling golden lightning and forking it about all over the place – he might have even helped with the goal. I don’t know. But I do know that our resident Icelandic sidewinder played a great net and now we’re all in fair pantomime spirit.
Bulot skits around – the icing fairy on the cake. Far from the etymological whelk of his name (‘Bulot’ literally translates to ‘whelk’ in French), he is rather the winkle of the shellfish world. An intricate and refreshing garnish on the side of the pitch.*

Reminds me of the time I took Mrs mcbobbin to the 4-0 Coventry game. Whilst 20,000 were in tears at SCPs goal, she was proudly expounding her theory that SCP personified the Greek literary and dramatic concept of deus ex machina. If she has a pipe she'd have smoked it.
i've now got this vision of her standing and posturing towards the pitch with a tiny skull in one hand and a curly moustache, ignoring the fans behind telling her to sit down.
A nervy recommencement! We ought to be more careful. Would it be appropriate for me to shout at a child? The feet on the back of the seat is like Chinese water torture.
After reading it again I'm a little worried that next time Bulot may be envisioned naked with eager balls and thrusting man muscles that glisten in the sunlight...

Warm weather getting to you @sadiejane1981 ? Cold shower for you young lady!
"There are some lovely boots on display today. I often use them to orient myself in a match where players might otherwise blur into something like a painting by Bruegel"
"especially deckchair-resplendent today and transmitting a loud energy, which I assume is eating into the players"
Doc Rivers - Coach of the LA Clippers. Point Guard for the New York Knicks in the 80's, Coach of the title winning Boston Celtics in 2008. Never expected to see him in a football thread.
TT can you give us your insight (on a different thread?) on how Luzon has set us up differently to Bob? Higher line perhaps and not tippy tapping at back but how are we getting it forward quicker and being more dangerous? TW?
Could be worse. I'll never forget the time I started taking an ex with me to games about 5 years ago whenever my old man was on holiday and she would come in his place. I had been trying to give the elbow for a good 6 months at that point. Lovely girl, but just wasn't right for me at the time.
Wasn't long before she was buying replica shirts and learning songs to try and make me interested again. She thought it was a good idea to 'surprise' me by turning up at Swindon away. Little did she know I wasn't actually there and was just trying to get a weekend off from her. Christ was I in the doghouse when she found out.

I enjoy her work.
Sounds a bit Millwall to me.
Fifth columnist?
Love it.
"HAVE YOU BEEN CHEATING ON ME WITH A SPRITELY GABONESE ETYMOLOGICAL WHELK??"
IGNORE THE H8TERS!

Bulot himself has retweeted a link to this, btw
I was at an Union Berlin match recently, wonder what your girlfriend would have made of that experience.
In an enjoyable, but somewhat creepy, way...
