In common with most people of my vintage, I despise Luton Town with avengence. Hence I am apoplectic with rage that they have adoptred our kit as their away strip - total and utter ****s.

Quite looking forward to it to be honest with you.
Nice people & always treated me fairly.
but I’m hoping they don’t win any more games between now and then so I can bust out my compass joke ie what do stoke and compass have in common? They both got 4 points :clap:
Only 4 cardinal points, to be ecclesiastically picky about it. A compass can theoretically have any number of points within the range n^2, as I'm sure the Stokies would be quick to point out.Quote:

Whatever you do don't mention Aaron Ramsey's snapped leg, it might offend them.Quote:
