Myself and Keithy D made our last away journey of the year (2007) to West Brom and i had a feeling that it would end in defeat but not by as big a margin as 5-0.
The first thing to catch my eye as we were travelling down the M1 wasnt the skid marks at junction 28 where we had an accident on route to Northampton, but a convoy of Minibuses. Not unusal, but the company they belonged to was. It said ''JESUS ARMY'', with this Keithy D looked into his Phrase Book and pulled out a cracker...''There full of bloody HAPPY CLAPPERS'' Another Classic quote from the Keithy D.
As we got to are seat not many SUFC fans had got in the ground so we found what we thought was a good view and out the way of the Singing Barmy Army. We was fooled. A young lass of about 18 sat behind us then a lad of about the same age sat next to Greg. The lad sat next to Greg had terretts and the lass behind had incontrolable shouting fits. The lad often seen making 'Cut Throat' signs at the stewards and the lass was screaming 'Away Away' everytime WBA came forward.
Anyway to the game, SUFC were soaking up all of WBA's pressure and making a few openings themselves untill a long punt from the WBA rear guard found Kevin Phillips 5 yards offside but the flag was never raised and Phillips slammed home a rocket into the top corner (1-0). Quality finish but he was without doubt offside. This angered Nigel Adkins and he went in a rage at the linesman and the ref sent him to the stands. The next turning point was from another long punt from a WBA defender which went straight through to SUFC's keeper Joe Murphy. Next thing the linesman is flagging and Marcus Williams was giving his marching orders. For why is still a mistery. Anyway with 10 men SUFC were always going to struggle and soon found themselves 2-0 down after a goal-mouth scramble lead to Robert Koren firing home, so at half time it was 2-0 to the Baggies.
In the second half it was all down hill and Phillips got his 2nd with a cute chip (3-0) and then he had the chance for his hat-trick from the penalty spot after Kelly Youga brought down Ismeal Miller. Murphy saved and gave the travelling Iron fans a little to Cheer. That soon ended though when a WBA corner was half cleared to Zoltan Gera who unleashed an unstopable 35 yard strike into the top corner (4-0). Even the SUFC fans clapped that finish. Then a long ball forward from Carl Hoefkens was brought down by Craig Beattie who twisted and hit a curling shot into the top corner from 30 yards (5-0) again the SUFC fans clapped in admiration.
So the game ended 5-0 but it would of been interesting to see what would of hapened if the first goal had been correctly ruled offside and the ref had not sent off Williams for no apparent reason. But again the ref spoiled the game and it ended in defeat.
Although the final quater of 2007 hasnt been all plain sailing for the Iron it will be a much remembered year for Scunthorpe United as they clinched the league 1 title and made a new record of 19 unbeaten games, Lets look forward to 2008 and hope they stay in the Coca Cola Championship!

General Stuff + a Laugh at Jack (The Confuser)
Firstly id like to stay Merry Christmas to all of you belonging 'The Booze' and a Happy New Year, lets hope 2008 is filled with plenty more 'Booze' outings. The Cricket is one event that springs to mind already, No Rain this time though please.
So the year (2007) has been full of wild and wonderful occasions. Steve and Sharon got Wed and Dave and Leanne got engaged, Congrats to both couples. Scunthorpe won the League 1 title which was celebrated in Blackpool, not every member of the booze was there but them that was will remember that day forever. Jack went on his travels to USA Twice, Also soon to be featuring on the TV Quiz show 'Nothing But The Truth' this is where i also make my International TV Debut. The Cricket at Leeds was abit of wash out but never the less we made the most it by helping out in the slips in the 'Indoor Cricket Cup' where after almost falling off his chair Phil caught the screwed up piece of paper. Also Shorty was up to his usual tricks and filled his Pic-Nic bag with 5 or 6 new Stella glasses. Also making its way into the bag was a Freezer tray???? Biggest laugh had to go to Dave and Andy who fell for a trick which lead to them been covered in Beer...Priceless.
Late on in the year Rick came up with a 'Gay League' this lead to many a point been dished out willy nilly and came to stand still with me top of the table for some reason, but Tom actually demanding to be in the league was quite funny
Away day in London to watch Scunthorpe play Orient was a great weekend. Firstly on the M1 Tom's Oil light came on and we darted into the services to get a litre or 2. Then to mine and Robs amazement we past 'The Sign' which indicated we was going the 'Right' way. But as we found out 2miles down the road we wasnt and we turned round which was then followed by a short visit to Watford. The game was pretty shite but a last minute Billy Sharp goal kept us on track for promotion and it put the wheels on our adventure, as it turned out to be, in motion. On a tube i found myself sat next to a lovely cockney lass listening to music, but in my Drunk state i said 'hello' and expected nothing in return, but to my amazement she said 'hello' back to me which caught me off my guard and i replied with 'Are you going Dancing tonight?' This resulted in her replacing her headphone and turning her back on me, of course Tom, Rick and Rob were in fits of laughter and im sure that made her get off at the next stop. Also missing the last Tube was a high and a low because it cost £60-£70 to get back to base but we had 2 illegal taxi's which we didnt pay for but made at least 2 miles up the road!
Sunday just gone ( 23rd December 2007 ) i learned that some of us have now got new nicknames. Turks = Mid-Ship...Jack = The Confuser...Rick = Fluffy Boy...Dave = Idiot Boy, Why we are now called this is a mistery but i like it, shame Dave doesnt think the same thou. The Confuser, Fluffy Boy and Myself, Mid-Ship were in Barrys (Barracuda's) when a young lad tried to push open the door which lead to Fluffy Boy saying ' Its says Pull Dickhead,cant you read Boy?' i then said ' Maybe he cant read, he only looks about 2 years old' to which The Confuser replied ' Pull is one of those easy 4 lettered words like CAT and DOG' Well i dont think me and Fluffy Boy have laughed so much! Of course The Confuser tried to palm it off but its made its way here now Jacksie, So lets pause for 10 seconds and laugh at Jacks expense...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Anyway All the Best in 2008 and lets make the most of the Christmas Eve, Trinitys Past v Present and New Years Eve Drink-athon
Yours Truely

Fire Guard
Saw this and it got me thinking. When I was a kid and went to my Grannys she use to always have the gas fire on (even in the summer, never use to understand that) but any way she had a guard round it so we wouldnt get too close to it and burn ourselves. Now if she had a picture above of this above the fire then no way would we have gone near it. So im going to print one off and put it above our fire so when the kids come round they wont get burnt either.
p.s does any one know who or what this is? thought it was burls at first but the eyes prooved me wrong.
Im new to face book. For those of you who said "join the online sensation before I murder you" please dont hurt me. I dont get it though so those of you that do get it please put up with my questions.
However, I did find this and it reminds me of the 1920's Flash Gordon comics. You know the one with the hero and side kick in psudo-futuristic clothing. The hero making a futuristic salute (perhaps and arm across the chest and another cupping the "happy place") with the side kick (who may go by the very 1920's super hero name "The Silver Fox") stood by with hands on hips gloating over their most recent victory over Ming
In black and white or "super vision" as it was known back then I give you Beard Man and his faithful side kick Idiot Boy. Beware Ming!
Only messing Dave

A Tent too Far
As we have announced our intentions to go camping next year I have challenged myself to beat you all with the best tent ever.
However, unfortunately these are some of the image results for "best tent ever". You decide what they are about
Gay or Not?
German wife swapping or TK Max gone bust?
Stoned or Dying?
Foreigners at home or some immigrants daughter stole me lucky charms?
Cool RAF Tent or a former RAF tent that either Ric or Tom is going to steal to make for a good holiday?
Even though google images was rubbish my tent is still going to rule. See you all at Famous Army Stores (or millets or whatever its called these days)
Happy camping

IS THIS THE BEST CHANT EVER...A REPLY
I was gonna play "we won it 2 times,we won it 2 timesssss without killing anyone,we won it 2 times" but there was no video. So i found this 1 instead,somebody asked what happened to that Michael Shields kid who was locked away in Greece,well now you know
Latest Trinity FC News...
The last game before Christmas was played on Sunday with a convincing 4-0 victory and passage into the 3rd round of the Bob Bedford Cup complete. An early morning suprise was to unfold as Jack reveiled a colour co-ordinated pair of Nike Footy Boots. Not only were they Orange and Blue (like the replica TFC home shirt-Available in Good sports shops RRP £34.99) they had the word ''Postman'' stitched into the heel of his left boot and ''Jack'' in the right heel.Surely these boots, That Hair style and his cockyness is enough to be made a target by most Sunday League Players. Anyway to the game and an indirect freekick for Trinity was the first piece of goalmouth action. A back pass was picked up by the B&M Keeper (a mistake never to be made by Trinitys Stand-in wonder kid) and a free kick awarded. But as usual a Chris Harper Freekick saw Blackbirds fleeing for there lives instead of the net bulging! The next chance was a '' 35 Yard Screamer'' (quoted from the offical TFC website) which was more like a hit and hope from 20 yards but never the less the much travelled Jack Haughey Jnr found the net just before half time to give Trinity a much deserved lead. After a couple of mouthfulls of Bovil were taken on board Trinity moved up a Gear and scored 3 more goals without reply in the 2nd half. First though in the 2nd half ''Wing Wizard'' Phil Brumby, playing much more like a '' Flat Battery'' was replaced by Darren who was later to do more than Brumby had done all game which was to find feet with a simple 2 yard pass. Goals from Danny Barnes, Jason Harper and Mark McCrea put the game to bed and secured a 3rd round meeting with Real Ale Madrid. But special mention has to go to Stand-in Keeper Graham Dixon who again played like a young Peter Schmeichel in his prime, collecting everything thrown at him (which on this sunday morning was just abuse from the TFC Players and Officals) even after 80 mins of the game gone and no meaningful saves to make he pounced like a gazelle and tipped a fierce drive destined for the top corner over for a corner. Save of the Season???? More like Greatest save EVER!!!! Just a shame no video footage of this wonder save was caught and you will have to put up with Jack saying i should of caught it. Anyway it was the first Cleansheet of the Season and the First but by no means last of Dixons goalkeeping rain.
P.S. Please dont forget on Sunday 30th December its the Trinity Legends v Trinity Present (Team of the Year 2006-2007)....its down at Co-Op (central park) 10.30 kick off. Be sure to get there, as it will be an action packed festive game/reunion....also a days drinking follows this game in the Bluebell
