Middle of the Road

Post by Wiseacre » Wed Aug 28, 2019 2:09 pm

I was pleased to hear my suggestion for Quakers show-biz affiliations being followed up on Monday with Doris Day belting it out before the match - and in a way Doris is dead right; what will be will be. I believe AA has done so well to pick the club up that maybe, just sometimes, it's easy to be unrealistic and start moaning unfairly. So what if Thompson had a 'mare we know how good he generally is and sniping at Campbell seems very harsh. Don't forget the laudable pre-season view that mid-table and a few cup wins would suffice - I feel we're well set for that even if it is going to mean some poor stuff like Monday. As Doris would say we're a long way from the deadwood stage.
It might seem a bit a bit Radio Two to take that view but we had enough rock 'n roll with previous regimes.

There's an echo in here. Didn't you try that one on the BPA match thread too? Tumbleweed then, as well.
