Ryan, March, Connolly, Gross...I bet I've been wrong about more players than most people. And I was wrong when I thought that we'd kick off up the league this season. Although perhaps the prediction wasn't wrong, just the timing.

Actually, come to think about it, Palace is now my second-favourite Premier League side in London.

I went into B&Q Burgess Hill a couple of weeks ago and they were selling 3 piece Harris brush sets for 10p, down from £10.99. I bought four, saving over £40 and marvelling at a 99 per cent plus price reduction.

There have been some interesting posts on this thread but nearly all of them have assumed that it's title was "Who is your favourite prime minister?" or possibly "Which prime minister do you hate the most?" It was neither of those things so I will stick with my original thought that the PM who...

The only answer to the question, for me and most people, should surely be Winston Churchill. His decision in 1940 to resist invasion or humiliation must have had a more profound effect on the lives of later generations than anything any of the subsequent 13 PMs did. Peter Hennessy, as good a...

I appreciate that this thread only exists to give your rage a bit of extra exercise, to allow you to have a go (along with Pastafarian) at anyone who might post a reflective and informative report on the subject and to post wild claims that there are now more vicious activists on the streets...

Mouldy Boots / Baker Lite appears to be talking to itself. Can someone help out?

Not entirely off-topic. A delicious stat in the Times today. Joelinton is second in the list of players who have scored goals in Newcastle matches this season and who were born on 14 August 1996. He's got one. Neil Maupay has three.

My word there are some sensitive souls about. For good or bad the EU has always been liberal with its flag-deployment, as have many member states. What's a little amusing about the British situation is not those neatly creased (and probably fake - I doubt they could ever flutter) flags...

"Brilliant to see BritishfoodBCS more than double its exports to the Flag of United States – our largest single country trading partner. Government backing from @UKEF is helping them bring classic British food and drink to countries around the world. Trade = jobs" Lovely tweet from Liz Truss...

There's no definitive answer to this question. It depends on the car you buy and the driver you are. I make no claims about my driving other than to say I am very kind to my cars. For the last 30 years or so it has therefore made sense for me to buy new and keep for a decade. My current car is...

I'd like a cardboard coffin. Could you do a giant Piglets Pies box?

Yes, you're quite right - George Bush might have been under huge domestic pressure but he shouldn't have started that adventure and persuaded the UK, Australia, Poland and other countries to join in. They were free and sovereign nations so they could have said no. I suppose it underlines the...

The Guardian was simply reporting on a book. And would you say that everyone who calls this duplicitous little disgrace a liar is a liar?

"I'm going home."

The 'Tonight' vote will have been affected by the fact that the pain is still fresh. I doubt I was the only one to lie awake thinking about it for two hours in the middle of last night. The 5-0 at Selhurst was bad, but we were in a state of transition then, with a new manager just appointed...

Has the self-entitled moral vacuum finished waffling yet? I need to go into the sitting room and someone's left the TV on.

...in spite of the fact that the bottom 11 presumably includes us?

If you're saying that expediency is playing a part among remainers then I for one will hold my hand up. You're right. I would have kept it down if Remain had won. But there again, court cases are usually instituted by the aggrieved. Your hypothesis doesn't really work though because whilst...

That depends entirely on the results of the match now being played. Let us hope we both end the day well.
