GUESTBOOK

NOTE: Don't try any funny stuff like trolling, flooding and other such internet-related abuse.
You don't want to find out why.

I was called a "sick girl" yesterday by this bloke from the technology department (cos I was fiddling with my PL wallpaper and had W&WW on the screen) and today, he told me that he will send me an email each Monday when the season starts to remind me that Wimbledon have yet met another defeat. What's wrong with the technology department??

Ronnie - Thomas doesn't really have anywhere else to go if the truth was known. I think he'll sign. Not so sure about Merson now, there are too many negative vibes coming out about this now. That said, if Villa sign either Juninho and/or Ginola, expect Merson to ride the white line down to WFC quicker than you can say "drug bust".

A minor, but perhaps important point directed to the host of this excellent site. 'Rob', you've been down the new training ground - are our boys playing with YELLOW balls (no titters, I thank you!) 'cos that's the colour of 'em in the First Division (and the rest of the Nationwide I do believe)...yeah, a minor point but you know how sensistive prof footballers are these days - remember Man Utd changing their kit at Southampton because they 'couldn't see' their colleagues in grey shirts?'

REPD - Mmmmm, well with the size of your graphics you'd probably need a 40gig HD (but I don't want to get picky, because they've improved dramatically in recent months). Alas I only have an 8gig HD, and EasyCD 3.5, my system was too slow for EasyCD 4. In 4 you cannot maually adjust buffer levels. Just wondering though what you really intend to use your 40 gig for? Do you have a secret underground site planned?

Sydney - Monday, July 24, 2000 at 01:46:41 (BST)

OK all, there's not much chance of a proper update until tomorrow - I still have to set up stuff like my digital camera and all my HTML files - so here's a couple of random thoughts : I was impressed by many of the youngsters yesterday, including Rob Gier and Chris Wilmott. In fact, I would say that of those who played yesterday, it was really only Gayle and JH who looked out of sorts. Can't wait until Kingstonian. The Paul Robinson signing looks a nice one, I guess that Lund and Euell are increasingly looking likely to go. Witness Euell's euphemistic knee injury yesterday. The Paul Merson story is getting weird, with Merson himself saying that he is staying at Villa - even though paper reports suggest that we've come in for a higher bid for him. And TB sounded *pretty* sure that it wasn't going to fall through yesterday.....
REPD
Getting to grips with Windows 2000 - Sunday, July 23, 2000 at 20:17:13 (BST)

Just a few comments about yesterdays game. All in all I thought we did okay. Individually, pretty well all of the players carried out their tasks well. Obviously with such a blend of old and new players (first team and reserves), a flowing passing game was not to be - that only happens when players have played together regularly over a period. The signs were good though. In particular Hawkins impressed me. He trapped the ball and passed it - just what we need. My only real concern is that Kimble was the only first team player who played the whole game - just shows you how much we need some back up for him. It was good to get back to football though - the summer break is too long. WTID - Neal Ardley - Neal Ardley

BTW, the well dressed Nog guy is Charles Koppel, he was the one who negotiated the PGPF sale in under 14 days. I'm not really in a position to update tonight, so I'll give my thoughts here : I didn't think too much of the open day as it goes, I don't think that TB was going to answer any question "honestly", nor were the others. But as a PR exercise it worked. Mind you, I *was* pretty hot, and given the fact that I had to literally rush to get to Sutton today it probably wasn't surprising

Listening to Nativity In Black II - Saturday, July 22, 2000 at 22:31:55 (BST)

MW - the Scottish muppet was actually one Steve Annette, who organises train travel. He often sounds like a prick when pissed. BTW, Paranoid is BS's most famous album, and got to #1 in the UK and #9 I think in the US. It was their third album I ever bought as it goes (behind Heaven and Hell and Black Sabbath). Musically, it's pretty good, though it's not one of my favourites - I personally prefer Master Of Reality and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Speaking of being under the influence, if you think that Paranoid is weird then you have never listened to Vol. 4. Now that IS fucked. And sorry for boring everyone else.
REPD
Under the influence of something - Saturday, July 22, 2000 at 22:27:25 (BST)

Yep, poor game, but some good moves in the second half when the quicks and Leaburn came on. Interesting that Mr 110% wasn't even considered to take part and TB was so PC when mentioned that I didn't need to follow up on that question! I have a funny feeling that we will only see JE in a Don's shirt if the rest of the squad come down with a dose of the flu. 1-0 to the Dons and things will get better, tis a long while since I saw us passing the ball as well as today, augurs well, despite the opposition. Nice to meet Gooseboy, Basingstoke Don and Mikey T, respect fellas! WTID

What a poor game, has JH got fatter? Open day was good except for a scottish 'muppet' who asked quite atupid questions. I must say that the norweigans representative was too well spoken and well dressed too be standing on the GGL pitch. I won't be posting for two weeks, cause I am off too Las Vegas, p.s, REPD-I have just heard Paranoid for the first time, what do you think of it, i think I need to be under the influence of drugs to understand some of the tracks!

Monday July 17, 2000, 8:16 AM London Time Burton: No Dons switch for Adams By Ken Dyer Wimbledon manager Terry Burton has ruled out the chances of signing Arsenal captain Tony Adams. Burton has been linked with a move for the England defender, who has a year of his contract remaining, but Burton admitted: 'I am sure Tony wants to continue to play at the highest level and I can't see him leaving Arsenal.' Burton, however, is hopeful of signing Michael Thomas on a free transfer. The former Arsenal and Liverpool midfielder is a free agent after leaving Benfica and has been training with Wimbledon. Another former Arsenal player who has been training with Wimbledon is midfielder Ian Selley, who has had injury problems in the past two seasons.

Just read FL John's new article, and this bit grabbed me: "Most people had begun to live in the malaise of Selhurst, a sort of twilight world, brightened by the Premier league". At the time, most people were "accepting" SP, primarily because SH had browbeaten people into believing it. I remember somebody getting a letter from Merton Council at that period (actually, I got one as well - I'll put it on Sights), which said that SH had not contacted Merton for a while - this contary to what SH was telling everyone. Remember this : Merton Council have never turned WFC down for a stadium application since 1991 - Sam Hammam has.

Don't know what he's been doing warming up the Leeds bench. I rate him well above Smith but then what do I know? But will him go to a Div 1 side? Somehow I can't see it. I think if we can hold on to Hartson, we should be okay. Defenders wise, we really need to blood our youngsters this year. As for Andresen, I think Burton has to stop wearing his anti-nog glasses. Andresen has potential and I hate to see him go. Or is this just a plot to get rid of all our good looking players! (Sully, Andresen and Thatcher...)

Although neither made the grade last year, I would be happier with Lund and Dry Martini available. Where are we going to get goals in the early part of the season? JH is suspended for 2 games (right?) I hope that GA may be back, but did not see him training on friday and suspect that he is being brought along slowly. This is probably right but indicates he may be still fragile. MH and REMBE are in rehab rather than training. I know that you (and others) hate Euell, but aside from Marcus who are we going to play up front? Carl Leaburn?

The Wiz
Oz - Saturday, July 08, 2000 at 23:17:31 (BST)

All - I have to say that I am beginning to like what I see and hear about our man TB. He seems to be his own man, but in a more "club aware" manner than Drillo and this can only be good at this time. He isn't panicking about next season and clearly has the good of WFC as his main concern. He is clearing the players who either (a) are not good enough for the 1st Division, let alone the Prem, (b) don't want to play for our great Club, or (c) will fetch good money now that can be used to further improve the squad. If he wants to create a team that can play football we need to give him time to deliver these people to the Club. He is no fool and will doubtless have even better contacts than REPD and Jonesy on who is a talented prospect from the lowere divisions. The thing to consider is whether these types of players want to come to a "long ball" outfit. TB has to show that we are a team that wants to play the game in a way that the Europeans play in order to attract such players. I, for one, don't care if it takes another five seasons to get up (or even if we never go up), so long as I think that I will be going to watch a well balanced team who want to beat the opposition by playing in a style that is changeable depending on how the game is going. We cannot say that this is going to happen unless some changes are made. Sure, we need to keep a few of the more seasoned players who are capable of playing a relatively skillful game, but those who come in must be able to fit into the various systems, rather than thinking "I'll just welly it up there and see what happens". Think how we struggled to beat Barnsley and Man City in recent seasons with this mentality and how it didn't serve us well at all against Fulham. TB will deliver what we all want if he is allowed to get on with things and he is showing that he has strong ideas and beliefs for the way forward to success. If BT goes, who's to say that TB doesn't unearth another nobody like Nigel Winterburn was when he signed? Sorry to drone on, but I have kept quiet for a few days and read what has been said here and on W&WW, just to guage the feeling. I don't think that TB is another Drillo even if he inherited the same problems in a different division, so let's allow him to tell us what's going on in his own time and on his terms as he seems to think we (the fans) are deserving of that at the very least.

I don't want to see Thatcher go because compared to other players, he's committed and has skills (not to mention his lovely strong thighs). But maybe his ankle is really fucked (and we know that it will never fet fixed)? And maybe TB knows there's someone in our youth team who can adequately replace him? We have lost better players than Thatcher (Winterburn?) and we survive. I reckon we still have a squad of good players and provided that every one tunes in, I am sure we will be okay. I wish Thatcher good luck (particularly of his international career). If we ever play Spurs, I know I won't and can't boo him (and Perry and Sully).

Right, some thoughts and comments on various things : firstly, Maggie "going" is an arse. But how often would the guy stay on the field next season for us? If he won't sign a contract extension, it's best to get something for him. Secondly, isn't it funny that many were saying last season that the club needed a clearout, and now we're kind of doing one everyone is suddenly getting cold feet. My feeling is that TB wants to build his "own" side (witness the comments that he wants to build a more "footballing" side), but after Maggie and one or two fringers go, the "out" column won't be filled in any more for now. Thirdly, for anyone asking about adding links, dissertations etc, I will work this evening on them. And finally, yes Baggy IS to do "Wimbledon Pie" on Kareoke.

Quick thought on Maggie seeing as though I haven't updated tonight - losing him is an arse, but I would rather get the �5m touted for him than keeping him and getting �0m this time next year. Remember that Spurz are actually signing 80% of one of the Premiership's worst defenses over the last 3 years. Perhaps more importantly, BRG and David Barnard are openly hinting that the money can be used for transfers, and I don't doubt that TB has *something* up his sleeve.... Also, keep check on Gareth Ainsworth playing up front next year : when he and JH played at Swindon in the pre-season last season, they hit it off with each other brilliantly, and just destroyed them.

WB was apparently going to return to his old Israeli club for something like �500k, but TB made a phone call to Israel and asked him to come back because he wanted him (boy, that's a dirty image). As for the debt whether it's Wyndmore or just WFC, I think the two entities (Molde and WFC) are separate from each other. If they aren't, it's probably from a business point of view no bad thing if the truth was known. And apparently it's not worth getting uptight about a �10m debt anyway - Leeds lost �16m a year or so ago, but most of that is probably for tax purposes (you do not pay tax on a loss but you do pay tax on profits). More from the SW19 Inland Revenue department next week.

Wasn't it 10 million debt for the Wyndmore account, which takes Molde into account too??? If we did *gulp* sell Thatcher too then we would easily clear all the debts, without needing to sell Badir. I think he's a good player myself, and could provide the bit of muscle in the center of midfield. Better still, we could sell Euell to Arsenal, Chelsea or Spurs for about 5 million and laugh all the way to the bank!!!

It brings a smile to your face and I heard a lot worse stuff at QPR last season when the whole crowd sang it. It doesn't gather momentum because not many know it. I do not condone Racist chanting but this correctness is really taking the piss. What next? No one tells opposition fans to stop singing about us not having a home.

FJ - good article sir. Personally I'm one of the new brand of WFC supporters having only started supporting in 1996. I have however been to Plough Lane to watch a reserve matche. In all honesty I can only say that the place was dump. By comparrison Selhurst Park is a Palace (excuse the pun)with the Holmsdale stand being actually quite good. I don't care if we move to a new stadium at Gatwick or Wimbledon. As long as its in the vicinity (ie not Dublin or the like)I'll be there supporting my team. It doesn't matter where we play as long as we do play. I identify myself with the club and not with the ground. WTID - Neal Ardley - Neal Ardley

FloJo - cracking article in Regulars, spot on. As a fan from the not so glory days of Southern League (first game 1970 when we were a little erratic IIRC), who missed a few seasons during child rearing years (1992-96) I feel that the identity of the supporters is very much as you describe. My daughter is eight and has often asked why we don't play in Wimbledon (although only once asked if we ever did!) and that if we move from Selhurst, will we play close enough for her still to come with me? Interesting take on things and I am clearly determined to recruit her and her younger sister (the wife likes Celsi, but was born in Hammersmith (SFW?)) to the fold as it is clear that she has a level of influence with her peers! Keep up the good work, looking forward to the next tome! WTID SA

Florida Jihn: Interesting article in the Regulars section. You are spot on with the "why do we support" bit. Like many of my schoolmates I followed the Elephant & Castle trend of supporting who your mates supported - or in my case the school bully because it made my life easier, being a specky-lecky four-eyes with NHS frames! But as you grow you question your commitment and start to look for something that raises your spirits and your life. Hence my support from 1984 for a team that epitomises everything that I consider right in football: effort, sweat. toil. some skill, passion and that little something that makes it right. Hence Wimbledon FC. It is this (or rather the lack of it) that upset me and so many others last season. As Wimbledon fans we always were held in grudging respect by fans of other "trendier" teams - something I've especially found up here in the frozen north - but last season that all disappeared with a majority of the teams' performances (Man Utd excepted, thankfully). It is this feeling that we need to get back, but please don't think that I'm advocating a return to The "Crazy Gang Days" (copyright The Sun). More a "Sunday Morning Football " feel about the team. In the halcyon days it was almost as if the players had wandered in off of the streets after a night out, met in a pub car park, gone round to someone's house to wake them up because they'd overslept, and then gone to the ground in a convoy (including the obligatory 3 times round the roundabout at The Elephant because one of you couldn't get on as the traffic pulled out!). The backs against the wall attitude that you get when a second Division team gets drawn against Top Of The Premier. It may sound as if I feel that we were on borrowed time in The Premiership. Far from it. If anything we were the clever little lad who does his homework but mucks about in class for a bit of a laugh, and still gets good marks in the end of year exams! Last year though we were found wanting! Anyway, enough waffle. I'll save it for my own bit of stuff for here. As I say, good show old boy! Look forward to the next instalement.

We were there for a good 20 minutes, and TB displayed all the gusto he�d shown on the programme. His straight forward replies, I�m sure, convinced those who heard him speak of the future that the manager�s job is in good hands. He mentioned that players like Cort could be sold, but only at the right price. �It�s not the right time for either Cort or Euell to leave WFC cos they could end up at best on the bench in some Premiership outfit.� Any more Norwegians? �No�. Trond to go? �No, he�s still in a contract�� Robbie to stay? �yes, and to be given a WFC coaching role (reserves etc) when playing days are over�� Last season players were not fit, turning up late for training, discipline had gone. Mentally we weren�t at the races for much of 99-00. That�s got to change.� Promotion? (DO NOT READ THE NEXT BIT NEGATIVELY) �Only teams who are mentally there have gone up from that division�. Hardest opponents for next season �ourselves�� Signings? �soon to be announced� New goalie? �Kelvin and Paul are good keepers�� Who chose the team at Bradford? A smile, nothing more. � � I left hoping such a personable candid bloke succeeds � and reflecting what would we have seen if Radio 5 had gone to it�s TV counterparts at the start of LAST season to tip them off �there�s a great docu-soap down at WFC� !

Basking in stardom - Wednesday, June 28, 2000 at 10:02:01 (BST)

Now for something completely serious, I believe I have found the perfect site for a ground. The council won't give us a greenfield site, so we should look to using old buildings for a ground. What I am thinking of is the large area of decrepit warehouses which can be found on the route from Morden to Shitehurst, I think it is near Ravensbury park. Well this site would be perfect, because it is not slap bang next to a residential area, the facilities are poor so the businesses would gladly leave for compensation, and Merton Council wouldn't lose a greenfield area cause we are using an old site. If any one raises the issue of transport, it is near a tram stop and it has a train station, I can't remember the line, and has a number of medium sized roads. This is all mere conjecture, but this is the perfect answer. Another alternative I reckon is the Gateick Idea, before anyone calls me a muppet or an idiot of the sort, should listen to the reasons why. Recently I traveled to Hove on the train from Clapham (To watch cricket) and in 20 minutes we had passed through the gatwick stop. Ho Hum, this is all just ideas, but I thought i'd share them with the rest of the world.

Kermit - the intention and belief that we can do well can only come IMO from being a much more professional outfit. The first (or old second) is much different than 1985/86, and there are teams down there who could whup our asses. REMBE's comments about "teem sprt" (Alan Hansen) would have had more creedence to them had they not come after a time when the players decided that they were going to try and get relegated after JK's ticker went. The "sprt" had virtually gone by then anyway. IMO..... MW - Do you keep in any contact whatsoever with Ozzy? Came across some London Clarets at a yoof game once, and nearly started a ruck with them. Speaking of rucks, it's a Monkleigh Road vs Cherrywood Lane conflict you want is it? We'll run you across Cannon Hill Common.....(this has absolutely ZERO relevance to anyone who does not live in SM4 or SW20). Oh, and I'll link to your site when I get round to doing the links again

Read your "Premiership Who cares?" article. Thought provoking as usual and I almost agree with you (also as usual). I do not think either that we will "walk it" like Charlton did last year even with our squad more or less intact (ie no CC or BT), but we certainly should be in contention. Yes, let's be more professional, but we still need the intention and belief that we can do well. If we keep players like KC, JH, HH, MH, GA, TA this year (as I hope) it will be a lot more difficult to keep them the next year if we fall well short. We may have some good youngsters, but nobody that leaps out as better than these guys yet. Also give REMBE a chance this year; he probably had to drop a division as player and we may see the benefit. His media connections made some comments seem worse if you were looking for disloyalty, but his early comment about hoping that EO did not throw out the better aspects of the WFC spirit etc could be taken as being far sighted and not as negative as some EO supporters claimed.

REPD - Sorry to hear about you receiving such a nice response from one of our fellow supporters. Look at it on the bright side: you manage to provoke thoughts from people (who probably never use their brain before). Also, as I've said in Jonesy's website previously, people really need to wise up and realise that there's no objectivity in journalism these days. Every one writes with an agenda, yes, including you angry young man. As for my very own poll entries, I am still working on it....

SW - No wonder you're pissed off at Trond wanting to leave ...what price loyality (as I try to save me pennies to buy season tickets for me and my wife) ! An example of loyality came last year when one of our senior players - you know, the one who's completed almost a decade od service with the club - received a serious injury playing for the reserves - THE RESERVES - presumably trying to get his first team place back. How many other SENIOR PL would have BOTHERED showing up at Watford if they were dropped? Also I wonder how many Tronds would have stuck with the club for as long, especially after a first season (back in early 1990s) when our home attendances at SP were shit? OK, he's reaching the 'twilight' of his playing career, but why the (constant) slagging of RE on this site? 'Cos he slagged EO? But isn't it the case that the owners offer to Norge players of 'your-chance-to-play-in-the-English-Premiership' via EO has seriously back-fired on us? TB's got enough of a difficult job to convince the younger,quality players to stay without WFC fan fan sites knocking players he obviously wants in his 00-01 plans. Discuss

REPD - Article on Who Cares for the Prem is really on the mark and probably puts into words what a great many of us have thought privately. There is a world of difference between blind faith and reality and the latter seems to be somewhat lacking in a number of correspondents. It is not that others who have a different view are wrong or oblivious to the facts, we all have the same passion ATEOTD, but it is far more difficult to come to terms with the cancer that has stricken the Club face to face, than it is to dismiss the other Div 1 clubs as if they are turning up just to watch us win matches. It is the different circumstances week in, week out, on the pitch and off the pitch that makes the game we all love what it is. I for one would be happier to spend the rest of my life watching us in a lower division and competing than struggling to keep up with clubs that are multinational conglomerates with the spending power of the German government. Sorry to drone on, but I felt inspired by your article and I suppose that it is there for that purpose? WTID SA

What I should have pointed out last night was that the shop units for let in Wimbledon are actually quite sizeable (bigger than Morden certainly) - when I've challenged the club over shops in the past, they've said that they also want a "permanent base" for the Football In The Community scheme anyway : so maybe that's why they'll need something bigger.

Does any of this sound familiar: unable to defend a lead, allow opposition to equalise, allow opposition to take the lead, defend as if all players speak a different language and have only met before at a nightclub! I would like to have a degree of confidence in the Dons doing better than this England team next season, but fear that we might have found our settling place given the current squad (albeit temporarily I hope). We desperately need a couple of decent midfielders to get us out of the Nationwide. Anyone else think it ironic that the main England sponsors are also our league sponsors next season????? WTID

Indeed, the Daily Record reckoned a couple of days ago that Dallas could add Norway and Yugoslavia to places where he shouldn't go on holiday.

Let's face it, Chris Bart-williams couldn't be any worse than one J. Euell could he??? Plus, CBW has been a good player in an average team for a while now. Remember, players can be bad in one team and then move and 're-kindle' their careers and play really well, it all depends on the system played, and the atmosphere and attitude of the players themselves. For all we knoe Cort could get his transfer and start playing really really well and become an England regular. Bergkamp was playing shit in Italy but then moved to Arsenal and starts playing really well again. It's all cirumstances and CBW could become shit hot if he moved to us...

Don't want to sound overly pessemistic but TB's shopping list show absolutly no ambition what so ever. Chris Bart Williams is a player who is still only average at first division level. While I will hold judgement on the QPR player JD until we sign him and I have a chance to see him I am beginning to agree with REPD that we may well have a few years in DIV 1 to be prepared for. Perhaps it is time for wholesale change and the start of a complete rebuilding process. I mean "john scales" pleeeeeaaaseee no. I remember him being nasty towards us at Anfield the year after he left

In cambridge we were just walking home from the pub when a group of blokes walked up effing and blinding asking if we were krauts before starting to lay into one of our contingent. 800+ arrests though is ridiculous and it wouldn't surprise me if England are banned from the tournament. I just hope it dosen't run through to the club teams again though, because if it did you could be guarunteed that Wimbledon would get into Europe whilst they couldn't play. Apparently though, some foreign fans were putting on England shirts and intentionally causing trouble. Don't know how much truth there is in this, but perhaps someone could enlighten me...

By the Man U/St Etienne comment, I mean it was the last time an individual entity had been threatened by UEFA in that way, I am fully aware of Heysel in 1985 (and wouldn't that be ironic if England got banned because of events happening in the same place yet again). The thing is, everyone keeps calling it a "small minority", yet 800 arrested in 48 hours is a pretty big "small minority". Sadly for England, the only two solutions to stop it is to ban the England fans or ban the England team.

Clarifying one more point... - Saturday, June 17, 2000 at 05:02:29 (BST)

Florida John - Michael Hughes only really improved when he started defending thus closing up the gaps between midfield and the defence. He may have broken his leg for WFC and for that I am grateful because (and you are right) unlike those crybabies, he did play as best as he could. However, he's one of those players who is very suspicious of Olsen's tactics and at the beginning of the season, he refused to play the way he's told. Is Michael Hughes in Drillo's plan? I think he is. I think Drillo rates him. But as I said below, it's not enough to have good skill these days. You need to have proper discipline, you need to play with a tactic and a strategy. MH I am afraid didn't understand this until it's too late. And I've never said MH is a crybaby. According to REPD's definition, the term "crybaby" only covers people like CC and JE. I mentioned MH name because he didn't play the system properly.

Don't go yet. The workers couldn't work with the tactics, therefore the tactics are at fault. Period. That's why they complained about them. The tactics need to fit what is already there, unless EO wanted to replace the entire team, which isn't practical. Also - our players are not all up to the standards of the Nog national team (note that none of our nogs made it) so international tectics do not necessarily work in a club setting, as we have seen. England are crap, though, full of clueless old men.

Dogsbollox - Trond may start, you never know. As for Drillo's tactics not working, well, how do you know when his tactics were never properly implemented by the WFC players thanks no small part to our crybabies, Michael Hughes and Robbie Earle? Don't blame relegation on Drillo. Blame it on those who are too arrogant and too inflexible to play a different style. If Drillo's style doesn't work, explain to me why Spain didn't score one single goal (as opposed to asking you why Norway won cos you probably would say Spain has a dodgy goalie, too easy baby). The problem with English football is players generally do not possess any tactical awareness. You only hear managers/the press/men in pub putting lots of emphasis on which players to pick instead of which players to pick and what tactics to play. Football has moved in lightyears and having 11 good players are not enough these days (and I am not even sure if there're 11 good players on the pitch when England played). You need that extra thing. I am afraid England don't have it. Bye, bye England after the first round.

I don't care where our players come from, as long as they're as good as the 'rough diamonds' we've managed to shape into class players in the past.

Can't wait for us to get into Europe (AGAIN! re '88) and us 'nick' some of Molde's squad!
