Postbag: Now for something completely different
17 June 2005
Football, eh? It's a funny old multi-national money grubbin global sport enterprise. Remember the good
old days when we were in the bottom tier of the Football League and had no money? Oh.
Anyway, send your "I saw boldin getin sum chips in meggiz so I rekon well sine him" messages to the
usual address at postbag@codalmighty.com. This
postbag was brought to you by GlaxoSmithKlineBeecham - putting chemicals in stuff since
1908.

I like Chinese
I think your rough guide to
Lincoln should have mentioned that a trip to Lincoln isn't complete without a visit to The Big Wok. If
the name isn't enough to tempt you there, then the fantastic array of Chinese food for a fiver plus ice
cream literally "on tap" should be.

Perhaps you could inform Miles Moss that Mr Bradley has resigned as Chairman
of Lincoln
City (see article 10th June 2005).

A lazy Friday afternoon at work and a mate sends me a link to your Lincoln City write
up (I'm an Imp). Just wanted to say that you got it all spot on (and yes I did make sure your Haiku
was correct).
Have yet to read the rest of the site, but if it is of the same accurate nature then i am sure to be
IMPressed (sorry).

I'm so worried
So Sunday's big announcement was that there would be announcement
on Monday, right?

So glad the club didn't send us subscribers a text to tell us
about the imminent announcement. That would really have taken the piss.

I like traffic lights
Having received another email from the OS offering for sale more
memorabilia/junk, I'm starting to get worried about what's left 'in the cupboard'.
Today's auction appears to be a bit of the Pontoon, and whilst I know things are tough financially, it's
getting a bit silly to start selling off the stands - especially before we've built new ones.
The only conclusion I can come to is that those season ticket sales are not coming along quite as well
as we are being told, so as a money making ruse the club is selling off the spare capacity.

Your Wycombe Rough
Guide Is full of mistakes Wycombe fans would go mad if they saw Alan Smith
described as "the fans choice" he's more unpopular down here than slade or Bobby Roberts is
around Grimsby! And they loved Claridge!
Matthew Winn

Andy Says: The Alan Smith bit is taken from the 'Chairboys' site. "Smith joined
Wycombe in a wave of enthusiasm following the shock resignation of Martin O'Neill in June 1995. He
was the fans choice but soon began to lose friends as he let popular players go and results weren't
forthcoming. The list of events make sorry reading but further emphasise the effect he had on the club
and its supporters."
Claridge's performance would have disappointed me, and did most of the attendees of The Gasroom
(Wycombe's messageboard).

I'm the urban spaceman
What Ian Jackson says is
very true. Who in their right mind drinks Bud and Miller when they can can drink Harpoon IPA, Arrogant
Bastard Ale and no end of really good American micros.
I was in Boston last November and found some excellent beer. Even Sam Adams - though it's gone
generic - is quite good (better than the likes of
Bud etc.) I'm going to Washington and New York later in the year and can't wait to get stuck into some
more real American beer.
Incidentally I had fish and chips in Boston. The fish was called scrod which apparently is either small
cod or small haddock and very good. The chips were crap so I sent them back for a better portion but
instead of
proper mushy peas it came with fucking coleslaw would you believe.

Welsh Mariners?
Thousands of them. You think those people in the pub talking Welsh are talking about you? They are
talking about our options for strengthening the midfield. At least it's only slightly less likely
than anyone in Grimsby talking about the Mariners, I sometimes suspect.
A one time editor of SWWF went to Lampeter University - I suspect this accounts for some of the
abuse he heaped upon Rhys Wilmot.
Jack Lewis put in one of the greatest international performances by any Mariner. 0-0 in a crucial
European Championship qualifier, he started
to warm up. Wales scored. He sat back down. He never did get a full cap.
Does this help? Really?
