I believe the term "Hollywood Ball" was invented by a Mr Ron Atkinson. From the Ronglish dictionary: Ok, we know this one's been around for ages, but to be honest, we were a little worried it had become one of Beckham's registered trademarks, and Adidas might be round the Towers with a writ...

Mickey Adams seemed to rate them. Not only did he highlight those two as players he had instructed his team to watch, he also subbed a forward for a defender (Whing) to take Carole out of the game. Sadly it worked because with two defenders marking him Carole couldn't get much service through to...

This was in the Argus in November. If we couldn't afford Lee in the summer when we still had the Turienzo money it was rather unlikely we could have found the funds now. "One candidate to replace the centre half turned goalscoring centre forward was Cardiff's Alan Lee but both the fee and...

I thought it was the other scouse mob who were interested in our Martin?

Here you go Morris: What’s the ground like? At one end is the comparatively new single tiered, South Stand (capacity 1,336 seats), which replaced a former open terrace. An unusual feature of this stand is that it is raised above pitch level, meaning that you have to climb a small set of steps...

Boniek was the man who recommended Federico Turienzo to us, claiming he was "better than Gresgorz Rasiak". Oh dear. And to think that the man was one of the finest players to come out of Eastern Europe.

Well i'm going to state that the domestic target is Callum Willock from Peterborough United. Saw a rumour about him coming here on trial last week. Add that to the fact that Barry Fry has put the entire Posh squad up for sale and I think he's a realistic target. As for the foreign signing...

He must have found a serious wedge behind the sofa if it's Grant Holt we're buying. Swansea were quoted 400k for him, hence why they bought Leon.

Taken from todays Argus: ALBION have identified two strikers in their quest to unearth a scorer during the January transfer window. Manager Mark McGhee hopes at least one of the un-named targets will provide the goals which have been missing all season. The problem was highlighted again in...

Kinky, what did you think of Perry?

A 6ft striker who's scored 3 goals in League 2 so far this season. Sounds highly likely.

I can see Cuttress now, scouring the site looking for rare fungus, molds and spores. "Your honour this development must not proceed as I have recently discovered this rare fungus growing near a couple of trees. It's quite rubbery and has a distinctive protrusion near the top with an interesting...

Kurt Nogan scored a hat trick vs Cambridge on New Years Day 1994. Dickov got a late equaliser vs Plymouth (top of the table if I recall correctly). Nogan got the even later winner. Dickov scored 2 vs Fulham in April of 1994 and got 5 overall.

Few questions emerge from that list: 1) Whatever happened to Matthew Wicks? He was touted as one of the most promising young defenders around when he first started out, seemed to do quite well for us to begin with. Where is he now? 2) How many games did Aidan Newhouse, Ryan Palmer, David...

This was what Leon had to say about Chris Turner before we played Wednesday in 2003. When he came in my whole world collapsed really," Knight said. "I took it back home with me to my family and I was in real distress. All I want to do is play football and he stopped me from doing that."...

This is what Chris Turner had to say about Leon Knight a couple of years ago: Turner told shareholders at the AGM: "Leon Knight made 27 appearances for us and scored three goals. "From the day I came here, he said he didn't like Sheffield Wednesday; he felt let down by the previous manager...

20) It was on the Coventry bombing thread. Didn't Looney claim Engima just wanted someone to hate him?

Alright it's: 3) Ottawa Senators

11) B 12) C 13) 19 14) Wrexham 15) Reading 16) Leyton Borient 17) Bob Booker 18) Easy 10 19) Uncle Buck 20) Rangdo?

1) Deja Vu (Who killed the Zutons, i'm not buying it on principle) 2) NSP & The Wank Bank 3) Toronto Maple Leafs 4) Toronto Seagull 5) Guy Butters 6) 7) Artois 8) 9) Superphil 10) C
