Man of Kent

Someone I know delivers exotic cars to the rich and even richer and he told me that he delivered at £200,000 Mercedes-Benz super car to Vardy's house which he had bought. And when he turned up there, Vardy was in but didn't even come outside and look at / inspect the car. He sent a flunky to sign fo...

They keep moaning about their new home but the old place was almost as bad in several ways. The last time I went to Upton Park, I was invited by a mate to experience some 'hospitality' in one of those executive boxes. To reach it, you had to walk through a hotel (!), past reception and up in a lift....

All this load of old bollix is gonna overshadow our win. :( All the positive aspects of our wins seem to be overshadowed by the opposition's woes. Whether it's their fans having a hissy fit, their manager being on the brink of being fired (BFS) or a Premier League championship charge being stalled ...

The only people who care about this bore-fest are the media - such as those hapless idiots presenting breakfast TV (it's easy news, doesn't require hard work or journalistic skills) and the Daily Mail Online, who wet themselves over Kendall Jenner's little black dress. And how hilarious it is to see...

Has his battery finally and actually run out then?

I was once in the Beehole and there were two sets of away fans in there - Sheffield United and Leeds United. Bizarre atmosphere. We had nothing to play for but there were quite a few three-way punch ups. The police didn't know who to escort out. It was so long ago, I can't remember the date.

Nine of us from mid-Kent. Ashford International to Stratford International by High Speed train. It sounds so cosmopolitan - neither are though.

It not only bored me but it made me angry too. Chelsea just didn't give a toss about trying to win the ball, never mind the game. And it also hacked me off when Chelsea failed to find a solution to when City (Aguero, Villa and De Bruyne) mobbed the Chelsea back four whenever they were trying to play...

If you check out some of the bile about Keane on the Everton forums this evening you'd believe that, if those fans were in charge of the club, they'd give him back to us today for nothing!

Beneath that fake Irish accent is a true Burnley accent for sure.

A chance of a Europa league place and you believe that?

If one of the top six clubs win the FA Cup and we finish where we are today, that will see us into Europe. That's well worth playing for isn't it?

Isn't it also the first time we have ever come back from a goal down to win a game in the Premier League?

There are monumental amounts of shale gas all around where I live and almost everyone I know in this area wants it to be extracted. I say go for it and use the tax revenue to further subsidize the fuel costs of the over 65s. And while they're at it, they can put a rig in my garden and give me commis...

I remember the Portsmouth (away) game... Prozinecki vs Gascoigne, you could hardly believe these two international star midfielders on the same Div 2 pitch! Only one winner on the pitch, despite the draw. I was at that Portsmouth game and we were one up and cruising when late in the game, as I reme...

Check out St Pauli, Hamburg's second club. They're an eccentric bunch. A true punk football club. The 'Crass' of the Bundesliga.

The wusses in East Anglia (Anglia Rail) have cancelled trains this evening in anticipation of the so-called Beast from the East making railways 'treacherous' (they always use that word). It might be absolutely freezing here in the south and east today (it really is) but there's been no snow apart fr...

Did you get crapped on, Bfc? I was walking through Leicester Square late one Saturday evening when someone let off an Air Bomb.

Does anyone actually care nowadays if someone is offended by something? A trawl of the news in one day will reveal at least 30 'stories' of people being offended by something. We are all becoming immune to those who are supposedly outraged or offended. I couldn't care less any more. The perpetually-...

If a Porsche is out of your price range look at VW/Audi, same company so you're getting the same basic stuff with different bodies/badges. I'd urge you to drive both and then reconsider.

Porsche Macan does almost everything a car should do (except provide open-top motoring) and certainly everything you'd expect of an SUV. Don't be tempted by an unreliable Land or Range Rover!

His views on players who wear those ridiculous dustbin lid-style headphones when being interviewed or when arriving at a stadium in front of the cameras are spot on and congratulations to him for having the balls to stand up to that kind of behaviour and prevent it at Burnley. Those kinds of pre-pla...

It helps about as much as that ridiculous "you're shh** aaaaaaah!" that some fans shout to try and put off goalkeepers when they take a goal kick. That one really gets my goat.A childish chant from tourist fans.

I believe the Burnley game was the first. There were two games on the same opening day and Burnley played first, in the afternoon, and then there was a 'bigger' game in the evening.

He already has one. I saw him at the end of the Palace game last season. He was a man mountain and was patiently waiting for SD, standing guard by a big black Range Rover, as he signed autographs after our first away win of the season....before driving him away.

I met a bloke last summer who worked for WBAC and he said that it was his job to meet with people who wanted to sell their cars.
