I don't know which previous year's are interesting to people though.

You like the Patriots...maybe 1985 would be an interesting year to start.

Nah be honest didn't take much notice of it, got to the final last year and odds on us doing it again were too big plus rather us go for a UEFA spot by the way of the league.

Not the first time he has done it, FA Cup against Luton Town.

He also hit one from 40 yds in that game meaning he scored two goals from a combined 100+ yds must be some kind of record.

Slightly OT I know (quote above gives a clue as to what it is

), but how good would it be if we had this here?

I'd watch it anyway.

The weather channel has lots of specialized programing you might be interested in. Check out their website.

Thats why I have always thought it was stupid to have the weather channel in Southern California

ukhotstove · 09-21-2006, 02:21 PM

We get enough weather reports without having a weather channel, we even get told multiple times on mulitple channels what the weather is going to be like at each EPL game.

Sdpm100 · 09-21-2006, 02:23 PM

This is probably the reason why we haven't got one at present - we haven't got these:

We get one of their programmes - "Storm Stories" on National Geographic over here, I think.
