    Was at both games you mentioned, had an S/T for 30 seasons but only go now and again now. Rossington Main is the non league team that I watch occasionally due to working with lads that have played or are involved with the club. They've done The Peacock up and it's brilliant but it's now home fans only after an incident or two. The wall paper is a mish mash of ticket stubs, programme covers and old football cards. Looks mint. And yes the holiday has been a right laugh so far but it's more expensive than I thought and the dollars are disappearing quickly, mostly over various bar tops. Here's to another win tonight! Cheers.ย 

    I was only talking about the peacock last week to a blues mate at work....the places we've been to and thought afterwards.....'how the hell didn't we get the shit kicked out of us!!' ๐Ÿ˜€

    How do u go about getting tickets for browns games?......and are they expensive?.....it seems a lot more in comparison to premier league prices but that might just be where I've looked.ย 

    Let's hope we get that win tonight.....and no more fu**in injuries!! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜€

    Ay up Claret, I see your a Greg's and Villa fan. I was down yours for the last two mid week games with Leeds before we went down, we had a fine slurp round Litchfield pre match on both visits. Always liked your ground going right back to the 80s before redevelopmentย  and the AV flood lights. Done several of your boozers round there in days gone by one or two which sadly no longer exist I believe. City centre is good with pubs like the Wellington and Old Contemptables setting fine ale standards. Have you had the pleasure of a visit to Leeds? All the Gregs staff in Doncaster frenchgate know my face and I only work in the town. Cheers.ย 

    Alright mate, ah yes I like a greggs ๐Ÿ‘

    I've been to elland road a couple of times down the years, not for ages though. Dean saunders villa debut.....about 1992.....and then around 2000ish, can't remember anything about that game apart from we lost.....and we were in the peacock before the game, rather intoxicated ๐Ÿ˜€

    Been around donny a bit with work.....I drive a truck so been into amazon at rossington, and a little place called dixon timber more in the town.ย 

    Sounds like ur having a trip of a lifetime mate....I would love to go over and do a browns game. I missed the london game we had about 6 years ago, it coincided with the birth of my daughter....I'll never forgive her!! ๐Ÿ˜‚

    I only really get to see the highlights on Youtube, I don't have ten million fancy TV channels like some do. I've been working afternoon shift for months so I've been able to watch the Tuesday morning games but I'm back on days now and the games are just finishing as I'm getting up for work at 04.30. I'd check out sports bars online for Texans game , I think Istanbul is 7 hours in front so there is that to bear in mind which would mean Jets game would be live at silly o'clock in Istanbul so your hotel room might be your only possibility. Can't give you any tips for Istanbul as I've only been once for a soccer match and we were taken straight from the plane to the game then stuck back on the plane home straight after the game. We did get a nice boat ride down the Bosphorus river to the stadium though. Enjoy your holiday!ย  ย 

    NFL Hunter is pretty reliable for streaming games live. Sometimes takes a while to connect but then stays on all game. I used to pay for nfl game pass but if the game is on sky over here then it's blocked so u then have to pay for sky. Nfl hunter u have the choice of all the games all of the time ๐Ÿ‘

    Jacoby looked rough. He is hot and cold. Hopefully he settles down the next couple games. We can smack the jets next week and start 2-0

    Tbh I was in and out of the game so I may have missed his worst bits....but to me he looked overly cautious, always took the safe option....which made a nice change to baker slinging it all over the place. I guess we will see against better opposition, and with him more familiar with this offense, whether he will keep us in with a shout of a play off spot

  5. This is real sad news. I don't know bruce, but know his screen name and the nature of his posts, much like I did with gipper. Being from another country, and a real rookie browns fan compared to you guys, I rarely post, but I always read, so I feel like I know you all. Peace be with you tour.ย 

    Love from england

  6. I may be tempting fate here but that schedule looks pretty favourable to me. 4 of first 6 in cleveland, no long trips to the west coast, Chargers, bucs, pats all at home. Bills on the road is the only one that stands out.ย 

    No trips to denver, kansas, seattle, green bay, rams.ย 

    It's ours to lose, I tell yaย ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Holy shit please tell me I'm not the only guy here who just saw that chick in the Dawg Pound with the epic fun bags!?

    She was dressed like the Brownie elf, except with giant boobs.ย 

    I concur, they were fuckin huge!!ย

  8. I'm a regular reader and occasional poster on here and always read gippers posts with interest. When I saw this I said to my missus, 'oh man gipper has died!!' She said 'who's that?'.... I said.... 'I've never met him, nor seen a picture of him but I feel like I know him.'ย

    That old Crew logo looked great (first time I see it) and the new logo is awful as hell. I don't know how did they come up with such an ugly shield form. It is one of the weirdest soccer logos I have ever seen. What the hell is that right triangle beneath the C???ย 

    My thoughts exactly. I was looking at the new logo to see if there was some hidden gem in there that is not initially noticed......but no, just that strange triangle that looks like an after thought.ย 

    The original logo is great!ย

  10. It's been a long time coming!ย 

    Been following the browns from afar (uk) for a while but started watching them at the beginning of the kizer season. Unrecognisable from that shit show to last night. I couldn't watch it live last night, got a 3 yr old who has not been sleeping great, and work at 6am this morning. I woke at 4.24am and looked at my phone.....a smile as wide as the atlantic!

    I liked the lack of celebration from the players after the game, as if to say....'we got the job done, who's next'ย 

    Browns is the brownsย ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Is that an escaped but older starting to bald Hitler?ย  Top tier starting from far right on the top row and going 9 people over to the left?๐Ÿ˜ฑ

    That's what I thought...hitler with a fat neck ๐Ÿ™‚

  12. The mask wearing hasn't been implemented here in the uk because the government are scared the general public will buy all the available masks and leave the nurses/healthcarers without them, such is the shortage of masks. There is still quite a few people wearing them butย a minority. I've hardly been out the house for 6 weeks now but if I had to wear one I would do so no problem.ย 

    A relative of mine who is a healthcare worker has bemoaned some of her colleagues turning in to work kitted out in masks/visors/gloves by stating that no one has covid19 at their care home so why are they wearing all of that?!!! She has also said that anyone who will turn into work knowing there is covid19 present doesn't care about their own family!!ย  ย I'm quite glad that I am unable to see her for the forseeable future.
