Re: Joe Hart

Think I am right in saying that both of our keepers dislocated their shoulders trying to catch hold of the ball.
So undoubtedly there are pro's and con's.
There is an element of chance with every decision a goalkeeper takes.

Re: THE GOLDEN DUMMY

Think the golden dummy should be shared around the referees as they all want the spotlight and as soon as a player does something great they stand and wonder how to get it back on themselves.
Last night was a prime example.

For years I thought the Irish keeper was called Patty Bonner, only recently have I discovered he is called Pacci And I am very iffy about my spelling of that.

It's only warmer if you take an average over the 12 month period. Winters are getting warmer so more rain and less snow but summer's feel that they are getting colder and wetter.

Wow.
Had no idea.
What would happen if the second tier had been built when the club was looking to re-develop.
Would that still come under the original name or would the club have been allowed to name the top tier differently.
