    Friday joke time!!

    Three old blokes, regular posters on AVFTT (no names no pack drill), are sitting on a bench in Stanley Park, talking about life and about the struggles of ageing. First one says, l'm having a heck of a time taking a crap. I strain and I groan and it bloody well hurts, nothing seems to help...

    Are you an Optimist or a Pessimist?

    Looking back to when I posted this thread after two successive 1-0 away defeats against Wigan and Derby and before the home draw against Wycombe... Before the Wigan game, I'd checked the date of the League One Play-Off Final (Saturday 18th May) and booked my next well-deserved😜holiday flying...

    Are you an Optimist or a Pessimist?

    Lovely to see so many Pessimists turning into Optimists since Tuesday night's football results. Doesn't it make one feel a lot happier looking on the brightside? Even though we might be well-piffed off if we don't eventually "get to where we want to be" - FFS, I sound like Simon Grayson when...

    Is Beesley our top goal scorer?

    That's the first time that I've seen Lavery and Wes used in the same sentence, let alone the same breath! Lavery will never be fit to lace The Magician's boots...

    King Kenny

    Behave Voyeur, you facetious old fart😜the subject was midfielders not strikers! 'Stevie G' definitely had a goal in him eg., 120 goals in 504 games for The Reds, that's about 1 every 4 games. Whereas King Kenny scored 8 in 129 games for our beloved Tangerines, that's about 1 every 16 games...
