Re: O/T "The Godfather"
The actor/singer who played the part of Johnny Fontane in the film was Al Martino. Martino’s other claim to fame was that he had the UK’s first ever number one record “Here in my Heart” in he first ever published UK charts in 1952.

Re: Happy St Georges Day
Over here in Benalmadena nearly all the English bars put the bunting out to celebrate St. George’s day. Even the Spanish celebrate it... up in Mesquita Square in the Spanish area they put flags out etc and have music to celebrate. They obviously do the same for St. Patrick’s day etc.

Re: Sequence of events after Wolves Scored
Is it not the case that once the ref blew for the free kick that is it?

Once the ref incorrectly blows for the foul that is the end of that phase ...
