As the title suggests anyone got any songs for next year?

(The KK being Kristian Dennis & Kane Hemmings)

Did any one manage to go.? 

Was it a good game.? 

Thoughts 

So the question who else would you sign for the 18/19 season if you had the budget and it was up to you.?  

So the Russian dream has come to an end at the hands of Croatia in a penalty shootout. Russia came in to the World Cup the lowest ranked side and some only believed the only way they were in the World Cup was because they were the hosts. 

Thoughts guys on Russias elimination and performance over the World Cup.?

Morning all, another ramble for you.

I’m off on a family camping weekend with Mrs. Big Tone, our son, daughter in law and grandsons, this was planned earlier in the year when I wasn’t even thinking about the World Cup let alone that England would be playing in the quarter finals....who knew?

Anyway, I’m taking the portable telly and hoping to set it up in the awning of our camper so we can watch the match out of the glare of the sun, a few beers and a bbq afterwards, should be a good weekend. 

So what are you all up to? How are you watching the match? What else have you got planned?

Have a fun time whatever you are doing.

Jordan Pickford the man of the match?

So England will face Croatia in the semi final of the World Cup in Moscow on Wednesday night kick off 7pm. 

Croatia haven’t been in the semi final for at least the last 20 years. While England unfortunately havent been in the semi final since 1990.

Croatia have been England bannana team beating England in both the euros and the World Cup. 

So with the first semi final since 1990 will England beat Croatia .? 

Will it go to a penalty shootout .? 

Are you watching the game.? 

Thoughts ?

Can you believe it England are through to the semi final of the World Cup ..!!!

Ok so a little game so you have brought a football team for £1 but there is a problem you don’t have a manager or assistant manager or any player. 

You have unlimited funds to sign who ever you want past or present any players your want 11 first teamers and minimum of 6 subs 

And as the owner you have to name your team as well and appointment a manger and a assistant manager. 

Any player from any team  past and present same with managers. 

So Adam Collin has signed for Carlisle- thoughts guys.? 

So the thing has happened I dreaded the most George Grant has gone to Luton Town on loan. I dont know about you guys but I was hoping he would come back to us. 

Wht do you guys thinks ?

So it’s been announced that the game changer is none other than former Crawley man Enzio Boldewijn ... what do you think guys are you happy with this ..? 

I enjoy my action thrillers, and the film I have watched the most out of everything would be "Road House" starring Patrick Swayze.

So what film have you seen the most?

https://mobile.twitter.com/ELsources/status/1007231716707262465

No chance of us signing him back. Hardy has already denied it. 

So England are in the last eight we face Sweden tomorrow if we can win we are in the last 4 is this it is football finally coming home.?

It's another big game for England, a win over Sweden could put our nation into the semi-finals. I actually forget the last time the Three Lions progressed this far, however the squad assembled by Gareth Southgate came under fire for the lack of experienced players and just his overall decisions. None of which seems to have caused any issues on the field and despite my concerns over the defence - they can do the job.

My question is which England international has impressed you the most during this World Cup?

For me it's Jordan Pickford, he's been impressive and will only grow within the role.

So it seems that the gaffer Kevin Nolan May be returning to playing ways as he has got shirt 44. 

Could he be playing next season is the return on.?

So after last nights nerve wracking  game against Columbia and the penalty shootout how are you feeling today. Has the voice gone back, has the head ache gone.? 

So it appears Hardy/Nolan want some exspirence in midfield and signed Vaughan from the other side of the trent.

Thoughts guys what do you think 

https://www.nottscountyfc.co.uk/news/2018/july/vaughan-announcement/

So the shocks continue in Russia and Brazil are the latest shock elimination.

so with this shock who do you think will win the World Cup.? 

Did you exspect Brazil to be knocked out by Belgium or just in general.?

I'm currently listening to a playlist on YouTube, 'Stand by me' by Ben E King came on. Whenever I hear it, I either think about my childhood or it reminds me of the film from 1986 of the same name.

No matter your age, it's hard not to like or appreciate this film.

So, my question to you is what song(s) remind you of a film whereby its featured. If you can please share the song or the movies trailer.
