Big games that aren't big anymore

The League Cup Final.

Except for when we win it of course.

Any permeation of The Wanderers, Oxford University and The Royal Engineers.

Don't forget the Old Carthusians and the Old Etonians.

Except for when we win it of course.

I'm trying to prepare myself for when we inevitably blow it. Although I've had a rather large bet on us winning at 7-1. I will weep when it happens.

Old Carthusians having a good season. Top of the Arthurian Premier League, 12 points ahead of Old Etonians.

Aberdeen v Dundee Utd. The so called "New Firm Derby". Dun Utd now bottom of the SPL and possibly heading for relegation.

st bernards were a tram ride from third

Just had a quick look on Wikipedia. Great nickname : the Hi Hi, so named after a defender had kicked the ball out of the ground.
It also says St. Bernard played in Edingburgh, Third Lanark in Glasgow. Is there another St. Bernard ?
