Anybody v Newport would be your tie of the round, but that ain't gonna happen. Wait till we get them on the wide open carpet at Wembley :wink:N5 1BH wrote:Rochdale Vs Newport County is the tie of the round for me

Had it not been a new sentence or he'd said "during that time" your point would be valid. He didn't, so it isn't. NEVER! You're defending him quite strongly, alter ego?

If it had been a different paragraph you would have a more valid argument. But its the same paragraph, so it's pretty clear what he meant.God is an Englishman wrote:Nicky_Tanner wrote: And he clearly mentioned never in the 5 years or so. I didn't need to look up the meaning of never and the context
