That should get him sacked by Monday Don't think so. Likely nobody else will take the job on, especially now. Another ruined Saturday afternoon! Oh well, at least I've got 'Strictly' to look forward to with a nice glass of red!

I've got a cat that wouldn't mind it! I can see here eyes lighting up at the prospect! I think we may stick with something a little, erm, more traditional if you don't mind. How's about some proper baked potatoes done on the bonfire? To be a little controversial and show a little of my mixed heritage and upbringing some black peas and vinegar and you think I'm joking

Even the black peas & vinegar, although that sounds just as exotic as roast throstle to me.
Plenty of butter on mine, please, and a large measure of any spirit to warm the cockles if you'd be so kind, mine host.

Funnily enough , not as exotic as you may think! It's a Lancashire thing Used to love Bonfire night when I was a kid. Nice bit of Parkin too courtesy of my Geordie gran actually although I think it's attributed to Yorkshire. Definitely not as' exotic' as a poor little throstle doing the rounds on a mini-spit Save our Throstles! So, nice hot toddy, baked tatty with lashings of butter and some black beans. Sorted!

Knew it was a Lancs thing, f, living in Yorkieshire as I do. So yes, that's exotic in my book.
Parkin? - ooooh, yes please! Yorkies and Lancastershirians will both tell you it's theirs. I don't care, if there's any knocking about it's mine.
The Throstles was a reference to our opponents on Monday neet, btw. For some reason I don't fancy the idea of a baggies butty and if you call them the thostles it seems to upset their fans. No idea why, touchy bu99ers.

Ah! Too subtle for me with them there Thostle references and what a horrendous thought, a Baggy Butty and yet strangely, something you would probably find Staffsoatcake gnawing on in the old armchair, with his lucky underpants on his head, dog frisking his leg with Guinness dribbles down his V-neck tank top!

Saturday racing up on us yet again. All this talk about lovely nosh has got me salivating. I'll be in straight after work, wouldn't mind a good burger with onions and maybe a hot dog or three if there's any going. Perhaps something appropriate to wash that little lot down with. Fingers crossed for Rory getting his first win.

Howd on to me whippet & flat cap, cram up me pipe with Dark Plug & stand clear. I'm going over the top into the no-mans land of the Oakwell terraces.
It's death or glory for me, all whilst singing "Michael O'Neill's barmy army" and "If Liam Lindsay is a footballer, I'm Lady Godiva ..."

All that smokin' and singin' worked a treat Q ,hope the throat didn't get too sore. I'm all pigged out on burgers and bangers, got so excited I forgot to stop eating. Time to relax and enjoy the moment. Didn't know I liked lager that much!.

Time to relax and enjoy the moment. Didn't know I liked lager that much!. Cheers Chuffed. I can still barely speak, although that's only partly down to the baccy & singing. Them cells in Barnsley nick were freezing.
Mr O'Neill politely informed me that not only are Tom Ince & Ryan Woods footballers, so is Liam Lindsay, so I should make good on the above statement.
Fair enough, but Barnsley's finest, PC Ploddingbotham, took objection. Apparently Lady Godiva rode a horse, not a hearse. And she had long hair to cover her unmentionables, she wasn't bald as a coot.
Still could have got away with it but saying to PCP that he looked exceedingly pleased to see me was the final straw for him. Apparently it's been raining a lot up there and it really was a canoe in his pocket.
Don't worry, I'll be back in the bar after the international break :-)

Back in the bar after the International break Mr Q? Eh? International break AGAIN? Shirley not! Can't say I've heard it mentioned! Oh well, that'll give the new Manager time to sit down with a few of the players who don't get to whip their passports out for a quick trot halfway across the world won't it?! Oops! I forgot, we have our own Jet-setting leader! Well, I've adorned the bar in the green and white with the red and white of the Mighty Potterrrers. Can't say that the colours co-ordinate too well though. Still, Christmas is a coming and if nothing else it looks quite festive. Get ready for the new bar fodder and booze as the season approaches. Waitrose, no less, has given me a few ideas for some fancy cocktails to make with the Bushmills How Premiership-in-waiting is that? Bolstered by more goals in one match than I could remember without a history book, with one a 'worldly' and a dollop of luck and even Joe Allen getting on the scoresheet for the first time since he got nose bleeds in the Leslie Hughes era I expect Santa O'Neill to pull something special out of his sack. All I ask is that he does it swiftly and with as few words as possible as Nath's rambling tended to upset the dog. He thought it was a Welsh elf who'd come to get him having mistaken him for a reindeer and feared he'd be shoe-horned into the unfamiliar position at the front of a sleigh in a diamond formation . I told the dog to not be so ridiculous. Who would do that? Then he told me that he'd seen the sleigh in the Pub Car park and there were four donkeys at the back. Oh well! Anyways, best be off 'til the next game. Let's wish all of our players on International duty all the best and let's hope that Michael doesn't pick up an injury! Good luck to yers!

Here we go again! Happy O'Neill comes Home day! The Cocktail is mixed, The Powell Poweritzer obv.. How refreshing to hear the new assistant manager talking to Nige. He speaks confidently without any rambling mumbles Proof will be in the pudding but we sound like we've got a proper management team if nothing else! Nice to see Dioufy on the bench again also. So, can we do it? Positive thoughts and vibes to the lads. GOARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRN STOKE!!

Stayed in long enough to see marvellous Mike's chit chat with some bloke off the telly just now. Looks like we're in the hands of some grownups at last. Plenty of snacks and a warming dram will do nicely ta. We're going to do this. Let the singing begin.
