Last week Le Tissier was suggesting that the government manipulated the weather during the Covid lockdowns so that the sunshine made people stay indoors. These people are too far gone. But remember, if you don’t question what you’re told and refuse to believe in ridiculous conspiracy theories you’r...

I don’t know. You would think so but looking at the state of some of the buildings around town, maybe they can’t or maybe the council can’t be bothered trying?
Councils have no money for litigation - the businesses know that and do as they please.

Especially if there was a concern raised by Forest before the match. I know clubs shouldn't be able to pick and choose who officiates their games, but not taking them out of the potential firing line is just a clanger waiting to happen involving that official. No way. That's like accepting an offic...

Esteve’s a budding leader too. Whilst his teammates were celebrating the third goal he was going round them all telling them to focus (or something similar). Seen him do it quite a bit. Nice to see. We don’t appear to have too many of those vocal leaders in the side. Yep. He was the one to console ...

Racing Universitaire Algerios (RUA) camus is their keeper
"After many years in which the world has afforded me many experiences, what I know most surely in the long run about morality and obligations, I owe to football.”
Is he related to the philosophical Albert, who was also a keeper?

Every time I see this topic I instantly think of several Clash cover versions. However - my answer as always is “Heard it through the grapevine” by The Slits. Turn up the bass. Loud.
In that case, give ‘All Along the Watchtower’ by XTC a listen. Holy ****.

While that’s state of the art stadia it certainly “ works “ the only negative is that it’s actually so safe you’re a bit spread out capacity wise . Yeah, it’s a bit dull to be honest. Though the first time I experienced it we were being battered ...

If none of the Euro-playing teams were involved, you could bring back replays.

I don't need any conclusive evidence to know that a club like Man City with stupidly rich sand dwellers are bent.
More bent than a game of Snakes and Ladders between Vladimir Putin and Julian Clary.
You certainly covered a few bases there.

Glucosamine, for me, was a gradual build thing. The first 6 months or so I was going to sack it.
I've now been taking it for 30 years and I believe it has saved me from a whole load of grief (including being able to make a living playing the guitar).

Pompey - the COLDEST I've ever been at a football ground
New Years Day? I was still exceedingly drunk and can't remember if I was cold or not. The vague memory I do have is the pitch was frozen solid and we lost 2-0?

ALP, have you been noticing more curlews this year? I'm not sure whether I've been lucky, or if they are doing a little better, because I've heard more calling than last year while out on my local patch. I hope so, because they are on the Red List. Sadly fewer lapwings, though, as per. I'd say they...

By all accounts we did all we could to get him. Hardly a major error.
We didn't do that though, did we? We ended up spending more on inferior replacements.
