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?

Need to find something to complain about don't we

Is that a complaint or a straightforward question?

I'm not in the CFS so I don't care. I don't want to stand up either.

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 ****.

Gotta say the safe standing at Spurs was excellent . 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 ...

'Hanging on the Telephone'

Great song from Blondie, but the original from 'The Nerves' wasn't too shoddy.

600 in the CF home end and 850 in the away end.

So we created more for the away fans than the home fans?

I think the 'where' is pertinent!

Correct, and the problem is they clash with Champions League games that are on the telly.

But we'll still be on the Turf.

As somebody mentioned earlier in the thread, always buy good quality supplements.

Portsmouth was the first place I saw anybody in an off licence wearing pyjamas.

Pretty common now.

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

I was thinking about this earlier and it was the obvious answer.

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).

Osteo arthritis.

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...

We'll have a lot of 'English Weeks' next season.

Can't see Grealish' current form with City merits a start, he'd be nowhere near my first 11.

Fosters been back for ages. We are playing 1 game a week, it really shouldn't be too much to ask for him to get up to fitness

He'll found out how fit he is next season with two a week.

It’s the same with Amdouni, he’s stuck with this lazy tag whilst being our most creative player. Slam the new young lads (to dig at VK) but give the likes of Jay Rod (who couldn’t control a simple pass) a free pass Well, you get the 'he's one of our own' stuff but I think the majority realise Jay's...

The deal would have already been wrapped up well before leverkusen becoming aware of his availability.

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.

Or just that people booed, which they definitely did and some of it was coming from the JMU where I was sat.

I’m in the Longside Lower, and what I could hear was from the CFS.

Something I’ve noticed whilst looking for an extension lead Why do they all have the cord coming out of the unit from the right?

I would wager none of the posts I've read in the recent past are Mr Stott's - I doubt very much he would take up under another guise.

I once spent ten days in Marseille's Vieux Port waiting for some boat parts and absolutely loved it... Sort of Liverpool but with sunshine, a great city, just watch your pockets/back.

Marseille and Naples are two of my favourite places in Europe - don't always go by the guide books.

Recently at my local Aldi they did not stock whole celeries but they did stock "celery sticks" which are very similar but notably more expensive. Clearly the celery sticks are popular so I thought I'd share this simple recipe for celery sticks that you can use at home. It only takes about 2 minutes...

Agreed. Just what the hell were Sunderland doing that day? Without those 3 points the ‘Turds would really be in the doo doo

You'd think the betting companies would be looking at that.

There's unpredictable, but that was unimaginable.

Let's face it we have had some shockers this season. It can't be much worse next season. And we won't have the big club bias to contend with.

We are the big club. Everyone will complain about us.
