I’ve found the backstory / narrative…

The same guy who stalks Charles Vernam has (allegedly) got grainy footage of Stacey Dooley (Luton) having her paso doble’d by Kai and Tommy Widdrington (Soton). Kevin from Grimsby (Scunthorpe) finds out, switches allegiance to Town and that’s the backstory required for the Mariners to waltz past Luton, do a jive-by on Southampton and some-other-twâtty-dance their way to Wembley.

Lovely stuff.

I’m booking my hotel for Wembley now. Are you.

If any lawyers are reading this my name is Willy Wacca and my counsel is Phil Day.


Foxtrot past Leicester in the QF then…

Not a happy camper?  

However you slice it, we have had the best cup run for a good while and made a few bob. Look at the positives.

It's pot luck who you get and where, same for everyone.

Stevenage won at Villa.


Just a grumpy git! The midweek decision is a real kick in the teeth, just dont think i can justify 2 days off work

Quoted from Rodley Mariner
Everyone said Luton was awful and we'd get beat and not sell out and it was flipping ace.

But it is pretty excrement with it being midweek. If it was a Saturday I'd have got a cheap hotel and made a weekend of it. As it is I can't figure out how I could do it without two days off work and the kids out of school or risking our lives desperately trying to stay awake driving home straight after it.


Do what everybody else is doing.

GO ON STRIKE !

Worked out great for me, I was working in Loughborough at the time.
Can’t quite remember the score, was it 1-4 at Leicester?

I think a big draw against Manu or another BIG club would have been a bad omen, take our eyes off the Luton game, think too far ahead and just be disappointed too much if you do lose to Luton. Stay under the radar and just keep mucking in

We will still be complaining about the draw when we get to the Final.


Agreed and if we end up in a Europa League group with Juventus and Atletico Madrid, I'll be fuming.
