Re: Mark Lawrenson, whinging or has he a point ?
For going on 10 years now, every time I've heard him commentate he's always sounded like it was a massive effort to be there and as though his Sunday would've been better spent tending to his allotment, hardly surprising he's not been kept on IMO.

Re: Never been more unhappy about being 100% right
Isn't welfare/benefit fraud a relative insignificance in the grand scheme of the public purse? I was under the impression these tax cuts would likely be funded by budget cuts to the public sector. Essentially your average worker will be getting a sweet £20 a month tax break at the detriment of the N...

Re: Beyer & Zaroury
Obviously nowhere near the same level but Zaroury reminds me a bit of Mahrez in his playing style based on the highlights I’ve seen, mainly the feinting to pass followed by the drag back the other way that he appears to do a lot.

Re: Random games from the past with no real significance
Mine would be a 1-0 home victory to (I think) Southend - I believe Payton scored, that sticks in my mind as it's the first game I recall attending with any clarity.
Another would be a 2-0 (I think) defeat at Bramall Lane, I remember Carl Asaba scoring - first away game I remember.
