Good Morning (Afternoon) from Texas. I've given up on trying to see the game live - I'll settle for the webcast. I see from the web that the sky sports panel reckon we'll lose so I take that as a good omen.

Mornin' Gal.

Yep,

I spent a day on a colleague's 40 horse ranch, but thank God I didn't have to get on a horse!

I'm going to listen to the match then get downtown for a bit of sightseeing.

Now back to business - Come On!

Acuna? Was that who I missed? (:o)

Free kick in a good position for us!!! Come on lads - give em something to shout about...... Solano takes it and doesn`t do a good job.

Where abouts in Texas are you Pilgrim? Are you enjoying it? I am dead green with envy!!!

Austin Gal,

I've been here a week - back tomorrow.

I really have had a brilliant time - I've probably gained half a stone, they kill you with food here!

-- Anonymous, October 28, 2000

Sounds like Acuna`s fitting in well - they reckon he`s looking pretty sharp. Apparently we`ve settled well - a good result would be very helpful all round today.(:o)

I must admit, Pilgrim, it`s all Desperate Dan pie size helpings!!! I do find the Americans really welcoming though.

Me too, Rik. I've only just succeeded to join in. I was getting desperate and tried The Gallowgate and NU Fans Forum on MSN Communities but I can't remember my log-in or password, which obviously doesn't help. Why does the BBS sometimes block like this?

-- Anonymous, October 28, 2000

I was trying in the first half to use my Free Free serve conection, Maybee it's a coincidence that I couldn't log on using it, I'm now back on my old account. Everyone else must be at the game or something, I've never known it so quiet on here.

Hi Barry, Rik - I haven`t been able to post for most of the first half! Hopefully it`s back on track.

Dumb techie question - can bad weather affect the connection? It`s blowing up a hoolie here this afternoon! Expecting force 7 - 8 tonight!

I love being able to hear the local adverts - a 189 pounds bathroom suite from Dial a Tool or some such place, have a Kit Kat, and so on. Don't get this in Belgium.

It's a bit strange hearing that Lee is playing in a sweepers role. Do you think they were practising this in the behind closed doors game against Boro the other day?

Anyone catch what number Acuna is?

Morning/Afternoon/Evening all....

The lads sound in good voice....

can't believe i missed the 1st half - daylight effing saving - i dunno...

You would not believe the rain that`s coming down here - it`s sheeting it down!!!!

You get the feel this match could go either way...

Why do the commentaters insist on calling Andy Griffin - Griffiths? anyone?

-- Anonymous, October 28, 2000

Clarence Acuna is number 6. And yes I do miss things like Metro and Radio Newcastle and Mike Neville, etc. I have asked BBC and ITV and Metro about putting at least recorded if not live internet broadcasts of Look North etc on for us exiles. According to BBC North it's more a lack of cash than anything else that stops them doing it, as apparently they get plenty of requests - it just needs maybe a few more of us to keep on asking. At any rate, this season's Metro internet commentaries are a big step forward. Anyway, the match commentary sounds like we are holding our own - looks like Acuna could be a good buy - he must be on some good drugs today. The thing is, we need to start scoring some more goals.

Just got back after a few days away with 'er indoors. It's taken me 45mins to get into the bbs (what the hell's going on?) during which WHU have managed to score against what seems to have been the run of play. However, it looks as though it's yet another depressing day with our slide down the table continuing - sh*t that's it, 0-1.
Both S'ton and WHU have now only one home game this season - against us!
At least it sounds as though Acuna's had a decent first start. Clutching at straws I'm afraid.
Bliddy mackems have also won 1-0! Think I'll go to bed.
