    [Albion] Albion sign James Furlong

    Every national paper in the UK list the day's runners and riders. Don't American papers even list the race times and distances?

    Is this sport really just basketball for girls? Yes, the baseball 'World' Series.

    [Albion] Albion sign James Furlong

    Fair enough, in fact on a second read I'd say you probably wouldn't have included that exclamation mark if you hadn't got it. Do they use furlongs in American horse racing?

    [Albion] Albion sign James Furlong

    I think you missed a joke there - a furlong is an eighth of a mile.

    [Football] Quirky stadiums

    I went there for the FA Vase semi against Oxford City but didn't notice anything of particular interest! I'm not sure where this stadium is but it staged this week's friendly or minor tournament match between Syria and North Korea. The designer seems to have forgotten the slopey bit in the...

    I did think you might be. It would seem I was wrong though, so I apologise for the slur :)

    [News] Panorama tonight will be interesting !

    Well, there are parallels. Israel operates its own apartheid policy (at least in Gaza). In fact I think it's worse, because I don't remember the South African Air Force murdering civilians on bombing raids at the slightest provocation.

    [News] Panorama tonight will be interesting !

    Labour supporters' anti-semitism is low-key and can be quite subtle. Such as not bothering to capitalise the j but doing so for their own party's name.

    [Football] South Africa

    Yep, you can't really blame the lino as on first view it looked more likely that Percy's free kick came off a South African rather than the Nigerian, so would have been offside. RSA's marking was pretty shocking though and Nigeria were worthy winners. I'm not sure Leon is going to feature for...

    [Football] On now: Champions League Live from Shropshire

    They had to change their name several years ago to a non-commercial one, so they chose the lame 'The New Saints' in the hope that the media would continue to refer to them as TNS. The BBC duly obliged last night in the caption on their website stream, although there were only 1250 logged on when...

    [Football] On now: Champions League Live from Shropshire

    No, I think it was CSKA Moscow; the Red Army was that of the USSR. The Yugoslav army was non-aligned, e.g. it wasn't part of the Warsaw Pact.

    [Football] On now: Champions League Live from Shropshire

    TNS also play in green and white hoops and lead 2-1. I'm glad that band packed it in, it was ruining the atmosphere. When I say 'band', I'm talking 18-piece complete with conductor!

    [Football] On now: Champions League Live from Shropshire

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/football/48907811 I've only today discovered that Oswestry Town have merged with the New Saints from across the border, but still play in Oswestry. This means England has 5 clubs in the competition because the merged club is allowed to play in and represent the...

    Is it true that in the 1970s, Whitehawk's was the only enclosed football ground in the whole of Brighton? I think the University of Sussex played in the Southern Counties Combination with the likes of Wadhurst and APV Athletic but I'm not sure that was enclosed-ground standard.
