The latest I can remember was 1962/63 May 22nd year of the big freeze we played Q P R away had a great cup run that year . We beat that lot from Wearside who love us to bits.

I'm sure we've played some games in August before.

We play regularly at Christmas time which is quite late in the year

Only after I have used Sarin gas on them.

A Total Idiot's Guide to the football season line 1 would read: 'The football season starts in August and concludes in May.'

You said it yourself - I totally agree.

I wasn't.

But I was certainly agreeing with your own suggestion that was the only way you'd ever get anyone rolling in the aisles given your legendary attempts at 'banter'.

Nice ploy though - lose the argument and attempt to distract by writing something even more ridiculous.

Wow what a little ray of sunshine

 

[Otis]

Yeah, wow! Geez.

On play-off weekend too. Didn't even though there was an argument.

Hope you're nowhere near Block 122 on Monday, DT.

Mmmmm, think he needs to go back in the loft and get his Frank Carson joke book and revise.

Wasn't even a joke as such and wasn't supposed to be hilariously funny.

Coventry 4 Everton 1 was May 26th 1985

Good call. I do remember that the season had finished that year, but couldn't remember how late into May it was.
