So mum said "Did you here that? Sperz have lost."
"Good" he said. Forcefully. Only time he hadn't mumbled incomprehensibly in months.
Wd dads.

Let's get the league next year for them.
Respect, mate. The lads did it for our dads.
[QUOTE=Ganpati's Goonerz--AFC's Aboriginal Fertility Cult;4162115]tis a **** fore sure,my old man tiold me he got in to WHL with bent fivers to watch the league win and walked from Wembey to Mortlake after the Charlie Geerge final love that **** :cloud9:Quote:

{Nowhere near as far, but walked back from Highbury to Hackney after beating Sampa 3-2 in the ECWC semi 1st leg. I was buzzing. I'm not a healthy chap, but it's amazing how easy it is to walk long distances when you've just won a blinder. I'm a heavy smoking asthmatic but I could probably do the Manchester run tomorrow feeling like this. I could probably walk to Manchester ffs.}
We've won a part of a double at WHL. One against Chelsea. They've won **** all against us.

You could practically sprint that. Especially as Green Lanes is the border.
