probably, I'm a fish (Born on St Patricks day) Tiger but the hour of my birth makes me a water Tiger which is kinda cool. Not that I have any belief in that but the ex wife was into it big time...

Hi Folks

Long time LUFC fan here (c.1972) living in Sydney, but still get to the odd match when back in Blighty. I still get that rush of blood when I get up Sunday morning knowing the Mighty Whites have been playing the day before and searching desperately for the results. Been a grumpy bar steward on sundays for far too long so my wife’s enjoying my improved demeanour so far this season.

Been stalking you all on this site for a few years and although I became a member a year or so ago, never got round to introducing myself so HELLO 👋. Looking forward to some interesting and stimulating debates 👍

for what it is worth this is the astrological description of your date of birth: "March 18 zodiac people are on the Pisces-Aries Cusp. We call this the Cusp of Rebirth. Two planets, Neptune and Mars, rule over this cusp. ... The Cusp of Rebirth has empowered you to take control of your finances"

I'm definitely on the Pisces side of the cusp, and I wouldn't say financial control was one of my defining characteristics. Mars and Mercury in Aries though, so I get the argumentative side!

The thing that hurts me the most is, that if Sheffield promote, they're gunna park the bus in every game and get destroyed 6's and 7's in the prem, whilst Bielsa could get some good players next season and embarrass top teams with his tactics, It kills me for real.

I was offered corporate tickets to Chelsea v Burnley tonight. I was so disgusted with Friday, I thought sod it, why not - mates and free booze.

We were 1-0 down in taxi and they had game on in the lounge. I was so bitter, I could barely watch.

Second goal went in and there was a bit an awkward silence as I thumped the table.

10 minutes later the waitress came over with some pints and inadvertently dropped on right into my lap.

I left at half time, with piss wet pants, stinking of IPA.

This Easter has been real rough.

Born in London 1964. Started supporting the boys in 1970. Been spending a fortune travelling to see them from my home in Essex since 1979. Absolutely love the club. The pain of our history just makes that love deeper. Once a white, always a white. MOT ALAW.

Been reading posts on the forum for a year or so now. Seems a friendly place with a general acceptance for different opinions. Thought it was time I joined you all

Guess I am likely to be one of the oldest here. Born in Wortley, then primary school in Beeston. By the time I was 7 I was hooked. We could hear the crowd from our house (edge of Cross Flatts Park.) My dad took me to Elland Road on Boxing Day 1956. We played Blackpool and won 5 1, but I went through half my life thinking it had been 3 1 till I actually looked it up! Since then I have lived in Leeds, Liverpool, Chester and now just north of London. Season ticket till early 2000s but now just get to games when I can, especially the London ones.
Failed to get a Charlton ticket for first time ever, so if anyone ends up with a spare?!
