    A 200 mile trip (sorry, 400 mile round trip) seems a bit much, although you did make it quite tempting with that little sweetener.

    To answer your (edited) post, yep a CP fan (obviously). Not much joy there these days, really hope it picks up and we at least get exciting games again.

    You're Leeds, right? Well you would get cheap tickets in Division One, wouldn't you? ;)

    Don't worry, you can laugh at me once Leeds are in the prem while Palace are still in the fizzy pop league in a few seasons' time. I can honestly see you getting there before us! I'd be extremely surprised if you don't at least make the playoffs.

    I'm sure you heard the joke when Leeds went down:
    Q: What do a cordless drill and the championship have in common?
    ...
    A: No Leeds.

    You know what assume did?

    If it is possible to detest a team then the one you mention falls into that category. And I live 5 mins from Elland Rd !!!!!!. Its a bit like forcing a Chelsea fan to live next to Old Trafford. As for my team....

    Na--na--na--na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na we won the league three times in a row, we won the FA Cup and now we're going up, we are the.........

    That should narrow it down!

    Goes to show you should never assume! Did your team win the prem/old division One 3 times in a row? Then the only team I can think of is Man U! It would explain why you hate Leeds! Don't get the "going up" reference though!

    We're not to keen on Man U either, though we don't "hate" them.

    Good effort, but how would Man U be 'going up'?

    That's the bit I didn't get! So was it three top flight titles in a row? Or does that include promotion season(s)?

  • OK, another clue.

    We just played Arsenal for a trophy about a month ago.

    It was the top flight 3 times in a row, yes!

    Talk about diverting the thread off topic. Lets blame Becky - she must have mentioned football at some point! LOL

    Must be the mighty Huddersfield Town then!:rotfl: This was all back in the 20s or 30s, right?!

    Still, (if I'm right) more than we ever won!

    Anyway, off to a late lunch now...

    Edit: And yes, it must be Becky's fault.. somehow!

  • Spot on, take a bow!!

    Now to try to get back to something closely resembling exercise, how about this for showing how good walking is:

    Man eats 23,000 Big Macs ......but is not overweight.

    He walks 10 miles per day and is fit as a fiddle. Just shows.
