    The lads have put in some serious miles today with the mowers. Mowing height at 19mm ready for tomorrow’s game. Cut and a mark tomorrow and we are good to go.

    They are going to relay it when the season ends. Perhaps they could sell me a few square metres.

    For those, like me, who don't have good enough internet to stream (it looks like a flick book on acid sometimes) or are overseas, as I had a look and it seems that the hive that I have never used is not available for such a game as of tomorrow. Then Talk Sport 2 has the game on commentary only. Easy to register and on pop up radio. It's worked super for me a lot this season. In fact, I almost prefer the radio.

    Just in case.

    ¡Puta madre! I wish I could go to the ground.

    radio allows you to do other things at the same time , visual doesn’t , i think a good commentator on radio is far better than tv for conveying a game .

    Hmm, this could descend into a discussion on a teacher's nightmare - how to cater for the seven types of learners in a classroom. But I hope not.

    I far prefer visual to auditory, as I'm generally not keen on doing something else when football is on. Watching on iFollow used to be ideal for me as a lot of the games had no biased commentators making inane comments that failed to match what my eyes were seeing.

    Mind you, when Ivic was in charge, watching wasn't really the best option...

    Back in the good old days you could get a subscription allowing you to hear Jon Marks radio commentary if you lived outside the 3CR area. Video streams were just something available from time to time. Jon was brilliant at painting pictures for you, and you could almost imagine the scene. Watching Hive games this season he has cut some of his more descriptive bits out as though everyone can see what is happening. For those who only have the audio version I feel that they are missing out a bit. 3CR always seemed to have problems trying to cover so many games at the same time, so you might suddenly find that you weren't listening to Jon at all, and then you realized just how good he is.

    Not a cloud in site down on the south coast. Why do they need all the floodlights on?

    Cathcart did well but Kiko obviously more attacking.

    We need to earn our success without success. Have to say starting 11 and bench probably the strongest we could have out of the fit players. it's in our hands.....
    You Horns!!!!

    Got a table booked later at a great seafood restaurant for my 6 year anniversary. Horns had better not sour my day (too much) six years ago when I got married we went up so hope that is a good sign.

    Well, 25th of April but we want to celebrate TODAY. :) Wife and I are good at partying, but, we don't do sessions on a Sunday.

    At least, if we lose, I can still celebrate something.
