as its my 5000th post (i know, I've got too much time on my hands!) rather than the normal 10 best/worst players etc I'd do my top 10 fishy moments
feel free to add/ criticise

1) the discussion was about german footie and obviously someone alluded to their 2nd world war conduct, to which a reply came 'i wonder what the poles would think about that?' quick as a flash came the post ' i dunno but i'm off down the car wash so i'll let you know!'
2) poojah's rant - simply brilliant
3) wayne - i miss wayne - very clever whoever that was,always made me smile
4) the golden oldies - they come round at least once a month - peter bore/danny north/scunny's away support
5) mike newell's appointment - some genuine excitement greeted that ill fated appointment - the board almost melted down
6) the present fenty/trust debate - apart from the odd tw.a.t the debate has been long running,sensible,intelligent and informative
7) the karen leonard thread - some great piiss taking went on in that one
8 ) - the old hooligan threads - i know it's not big and it's not clever, but that's how it was and i had some great memories and made some great mates during that time
9) used to enjoy the old chat room on a saturday afternoon- some good banter on there
10) the various threads where the fishy community came together - grimsby pete, bike to the bank, the gates painting etc etc

it's been fun and i hope the fishy continues to thrive , we had  a sticky period a while ago when a number of morons appeared but we seemed to have regained the old ways of being piis takers/informative/well thought/humorous posts

Golden moment, made all the more memorable by Davey B's bold prediction that Newell would NOT be getting the sack, about 20 minutes before the news broke

Good list. Would also add Spoony snapping his banjo string.

I think, remarkably, he repeated the prediction about 20 minutes after the news broke.

What about the fella who attempted suicide and loads of people on the Fishy rallied to save him. Not sure whether that was a good or a bad Fishy event but it was certainly memorable.

Grimsby Pete. Gets a mention in number 10.

If doing my own list I would add your recent 80sglory smack down.

I might be making it up but I think 80's Glory once posted something in a succinct manner avoiding any condescension. What a glorious day that was.

I'll also throw into the mix the day some twit came up with CDAJATL. On literally no occasions since, this delightful little acronym has amused and beguiled me. I particularly love how it can be used in reference to someone who is clearly not good enough, someone who may be good enough or (most hilariously of all) someone who is clearly too good.

Ah, the suicide event was so memorable (my own words) that I forgot his name.

Spoony, what happened to him, and his mad pictures
And Macca Bilk,??


<'(((((<

When I was a little boy
I asked my daddy what would i be
would I be United, would i be Leeds
Here's what he said to me

Oh Grimsby Grimsby
Whatever will be will be
You'll follow then faithfully
Oh Grimsby Grimsby


Tell me Mam me Mam
I dont want no tea no tea
I'm watching the Grimsby
Tell me Mam me mam
