The old German lager is a bit on the strong side did you go out the following day, or just nurse your hangover.

Nursed the hangover in the morning, as it was dry and sunny it was incredibly busy with several closures due to offs. Fortunetly it was open all day finally got on track around 5pm till it closed just after 7pm

Typical Yido

The scouse boys will want to go out on a high, at home, full house, party atmosphere, they might even stop stealing cars for the day up there! They are gonna turn you over big time.

And you are forgetting one very important fact, we are at home to a side that is in the Cup Final next weekend, we have the 2nd best home record in the league behind Manure and we REALLY have something to play for. And remember, we only need a draw thanks to our goal difference.

FULHAM INTO EUROPE!!!!!!!











OK........ so you might have won it for the last 4 years

At a rough guess (going by the shadows) I'd say that was Friday evening a couple of hours before the consumption of falling down water

No, it's just a regular M3. BMW have shelved the plans for a CSL at the moment.
