To be fair, WBA will be a special game whatever the results, as my little match partner Betsy is mascot so a very exciting day (well night courtesy of Sky lol) and bringing grandparents too! Awwwwww - go Betsy! Hope you all have a wonderful day! TBH I still get a little frisson of horror down the spine every time I hear the term 'WBA' as for some reason I still keep expecting a certain A.Poo-lis to turn up! Pulis was before Betsys time so she's not got any baggage with that..lol always think if she loves it now, which she does, then when they actually start playing decently again (whenever that may be!) she'll be delirious ! But thank you, Sky moving the game was a pain initially but when I told her was televised she was proper excited. Roll on next Monday!

Have you ever seen the DVD of our 1972 League Cup Final v Chelsea, Tel? (Or perhaps were you there on the day? I was!) Amazon are still selling it & I've watched it a few times & every time I still can't help yelling 'Goooooaaaarrrrrn' and 'oooooh' etc! The wonderful Gordon Banks played out of his skin that day & I've always said that he actually won the Cup for us. Anyway, just an idea - I was wondering if Betsy might like you to get her a copy of it for a surprise stocking-filler this Xmas - see how we were in the good ol' days!

She’s seen it on YouTube murph and lol thanks I’m a mere late 40s. We watched the itv Banks documentary recently, short but very good.
