    Last one tonight - thank heavens. What a meandering, crock of nonsense that I have watched every minute of... Mrs Matt thinks it is the son who killed the lad and his father is covering for him or should we expect a last minute return of Will Mellor or whatever his name is??

    Bishopstone Station - new parking restrictions

    Those of you who park in the road leading up to Bishopstone Station should know that there are now double yellows all along one side, so you may have a longer walk than usual on Saturday. :thumbsup:

    I know we had some dark times but not sure we ever dropped as low as 'grass roots'...

    Tv money should some go to grassroots football

    Never, ever going to happen though is it. Any decent kid is going to get swallowed up (and probably spat out at some point) by a pro team's academy/youth system and never get anywhere near amateur football until they have been deemed not good enough to make a living from the game. Looking at...

    Tv money should some go to grassroots football

    But it isn't though is it - what does the PL underpay grass roots football for? Any contribution the PL make towards the pyramid would be charitable and not commercial. I'm not saying that is right or ethical, but as granny weatherwax says the PL and grass roots have never been more distant.

    Tv money should some go to grassroots football

    If I were a PL Chairman I would probably think that this is a 20 year old argument without foundation. PL attendance is at all-time high, record TV receipts, growing foreign interest and all at a time when the only world class player we have produced in the last ten years (Monkey Bale) isn't...

    The money belongs to the PL not the FA though.

    Tv money should some go to grassroots football

    Why does the PL need a pyramid to support it? I'm guessing (in an uninformed way) that most players in the PL, and possibly the Championship and L1, do not come through the pyramid but instead come from abroad or through the clubs' own youth/U21/development/academies. I'm not pro the modern...

    New York hotels

    I've just got back from a few nights in the Westhouse on 55th. Excellent location (just a block or two from the bottom of Central Park) and the room was nicer than I've experienced in three other Manhattan hotels in the last couple of years. Not sure about the standard nightly prices but I got a...
