Met wee Pat a few times. A great player and a thoroughly decent bloke.

Since this thread has recently been resurrected I'll post this. It's me back in the day. Tachini Polo, Pringle Jumper and Kickers, Jeans probably Lois. After a few months in Aldershot all I wore were a crop, maroon T-shirts, Levi Jeans, Dessie boots and MA1 lol.

So our former players need to keep an eye on our fixtures list?!

He deserve's plaudits just for posting this.

I'll never tire of talking about that win. It's funny but I always wonder who the hero will be in the big games. I loved the first one and it was down to Petr and Drogs, this was a team win, a team with Kante in it!

Yeah, I've been, I went when it first opened. I agree with your discription. I've also been to the Hartenstein in Oosterbeek, the 82d Airborne Museum at Ft. Bragg. They are all really worth visiting.

Have you visited the Airborne Assault Museum at the Imperial War Museum at Duxford? Definitely worth visiting if you haven't. Some great stuff on display including information about Bruneval. the D-Day Landings, Operation Market Garden and Operation Varsity. Some VCs on display as well.
 

Declan Rice, Declan Rice, Declan Rice pah! Everyone rates him. He can play but I don't like him as a man. I don't like turn coats.
He chose to play for the Republic of Ireland first then England start sniffing and then it's all Three Lions. This forum is full of people who if they could play could be picked through birth or heritage to play for more than one country. Surely you wouldn't pick a country only because you don't think you're good enough for another. Pick from the heart and stick to it. Rant over, Erin Go Bragh.

People seem to forget that Women's football was massive buring the First World War. But once the surviving men returned from the war. Husbands backed by the Government and FA wanted the women back in the kitchen so Kicked them all out of the Factories whom most played for. They eventually actually banned Women's football in 1921. The organised game didn't start again until 1969. No wonder it lags behind the Men's game. Some might not like Women commentating on games but you cannot deny that they actually know what the're talking about. I'd take any of them over Glenn Hoddle and his monotone BS anyday.

Last night I watched some dire film call The Bad Nun. There's time I'll never get back. I like a nunsploitation film but God this was rubbish. The best thing about it was the Box it came in, which incidently bares no relation to the film.
So I'll mention a good film. My go to film is A Bridge Too Far, all about Arnhem. I first watched it on Airborne Forces Day at Depot Para and I've loved it ever since. I had the luck to meet many Arnhem veterans over the years including some of the 'Personalities"  who didn't disappoint. Every man an Emperor.
What Manner Of Men Are These That Wear The Maroon Beret?

They are firstly all volunteers and are toughened by physical training. As a result they have infectious optimism and that offensive eagerness which comes from well-being. They have 'jumped' from the air and by doing so have conquered fear.

Their duty lies in the van of the battle. They are proud of this honour. They have the highest standards in all things whether it be skill in battle or smartness in the execution of all peace time duties. They are in fact - men apart - every man an emperor.

Of all the factors, which make for success in battle, the spirit of the warrior is the most decisive. That spirit will be found in full measure in the men who wear the maroon beret”

Tielemans would be a great signing. He's proven that his stint at Monaco was an aberration. He really does offer the best of both Jorginho and Kovacic with more actual end product than either and 23 his best years are still to come.
 
Ndidi is also a very good player but his injury record is a bit worrying especially for his age. He doesn't offer as much in attack as Kante currently does but who better to learn from?

You didn't stick up for me, you stuck up for my kitties. 
Then you retracted it because I was a little bit sweaty

I hate Spurs the most, but how can a team that can't win a title if Levy's life depended on it be the biggest rival to the reigning European Champions 🤣
