I just saw this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport/hi/english/football/teams/e/exeter_city/newsid_2010000/2010945.stm

and found it very funny, I would like to hear what Mr Hopkins has to say about it all. PLus, what happened to Uri Geller being a lifelong Reading fan?

I do of course mean club, damn these strange international keyboards, they play havoc with my spelling.

No.

I don't know what to think, to be honest. Uri's son is a long- standing, dedicated City fan, so fair play to him. The people who recently took control of the club and brought the Gellers in have a somewhat less than glorious record (ask a Swansea fan).

Nevertheless, it appears we still have a club (this was by no means a certainty a few months back) and they haven't done anything wrong yet, so hopefully they'll turn out to be enlightened, prudent and dynamic.

It seems that to take the position that you would like a financially stable football club with a decent level of community involvement is to mark yourself out as an inmpossible dreamer.

three weeks pass...
Oh, hold on...

I think it is a perfect appointment. Exeter are often Dangerous in the box, many of their matches turn out to be Thrillers but generally they are just Bad.

(Sorry).

For one wonderful moment, I thought it said Norman Warne was a retired hamster, instead of retired headmaster...

Jacko quoted as saying:

For the children and Exeter City supporters, I love you, I'm here for you, I will always be here for you.

Bless!

It seems strangely fitting that the motto they came up with has the phrase "beat us" in it.

also Jackson stopped Wycombe Wanderers, in their non-league days, from using Dion's "The Wanderer", which he owned the rights to, when they got to the FA Trophy final because they wanted to change the lyrics, the pedantic spoilsport git

he will probably be reduced to playing at the Westpoint Arena on his next world tour!

three years pass...
I like the way they are battling it out with Stevenage Borough for honours, these days!
