Here we are again then. Boro last Saturday and #SAFC tonight. Good old Car Park C. Hoping for better North East vibes this time.

Great story from Bob Moncur at the memory café event at #NUFC explaining that if the manager, Joe Harvey, thought his players were having a good game in the 70s he’d give them a cigarette in the dressing room at half time! And light it!

The great man is looking well. #BORO

There is a small amount of “magic of the cup” at SJP because the Bromley fans are just so pleased to be here #NUFC

The crowd getting their money’s worth today as we get set for a thrilling half hour of newly-minted 3rd round extra time. Everyone in the press box is thrilled, I can tell you. Thrilled… #SAFC

Blue Skies above FA Cup 3rd round weekend. Romance, drama, magic? Or wholesale changes and wishing I’d worn long johns?
