I got the third kit in the mail last week. Its long sleeve, gold, collared, and a gem.

But the best part about it is the Johnny Haynes "jacquard" print on the lower right torso.

Interesting comments from Martin Jol regarding his use of Clint Dempsey (see Hammyend.com for more).

Essentially he's saying that Dempsey is operating as more of a classic 10, now.

This is interesting. From our unusually lofted positions high in Johnny Haynes, Toby and I spent a bit of time on Saturday wondering where everyone was supposed to be playing.

As noted, I was in the gents under the Johnny Haynes Stand when this went in. Like the players, I thought we'd won. Unlike the players I couldn't hold it any longer.

Nevertheless, I was surprised when I saw the replays. I had expected Orlando Sa to have done something daft. Then a a couple of respected people on twitter were talking about Frei's showboating (Fulham fans still blaming Sa though).

European football does strange things to players. Andrew Johnson's league form has been okay that hat-trick is in the Fulham FC permanent scrapbook but in Europe he seemingly can't be stopped. Last night he nabbed two more for the collection, and what beauties they were.

But we're getting ahead of ourselves.

English Premier League outfit Fulham FC has launched a special fan edition of its Kappa 2011/12 third kit featuring a print of club legend Johnny Haynes. According to the Cottagers website: The brand new Fulham Third kit has been worn by the Fulham First Team already this season but now supporters can have their first [.

One of the things that struck me while researching "When Football Was Football" was the view across the pitch from the river side of the ground. Whether it's 1911, 1931, 1961 or 2011, in almost any photograph of a match you can see the silhouettes of supporters standing at the back of the Stevenage Road stand.

Doing markets can be great fun. Hade and I have done market stalls in Balham (Christmas market), Greenwich, and various others here and there. We sold Hade's handywork, and some went well and some didn't. The problem you have is that for some of these you're paying £60+ for your pitch, so have to shift an awful lot of stuff just to break even.

Doing a bit of digging around and found this about Johnny Haynes in an archive:

"In the first half alone his fantastic record was to be in possession of the ball 33 times, and to move it forwards to an unmarked team-mate 28 times!"

You can't get away from stats...

From 1959.
