    Ipswich fans still moaning about Tomasz and FFP

    No, it's not. How is a tool fair, or a Jehovah's Witness conference related to Brighton & Hove Albion in any way, shape or form? I'd suggest you read the regulations before asking if I've made things up.

    Ipswich fans still moaning about Tomasz and FFP

    What about them? I imagine Ipswich hold similar events at Portman Road, but income from non-football operations that aren't related to the club isn't counted for the purposes of the financial fair play regulations anyway.

    Ipswich fans still moaning about Tomasz and FFP

    It's our top price standard season ticket as per the club website. 1901 is hospitality isn't it, rather than a normal season ticket? No idea what the full break down is, but the club website states that prices start from £18 + VAT per week (£1,123 p.a. inclusive of VAT). The bottom rate at...

    Ipswich fans still moaning about Tomasz and FFP

    There probably isn't that much in it as Ipswich charge more for a season ticket than we do. Their cheapest adult ticket is £493, as opposed to £425 and they go up to £1,061 compared to our top price of £625. They sold 13,370 tickets last season so assuming that their average price is around...

    My 10-point plan for Wimbledon coverage to make it relevant

    The players should ride horses and the ball-boys should be replaced by midgets dressed as circus performers.

    Deal or No Deal today - What would you do ?

    It's not though, is it? You can guarantee yourself £60,000 with no further risk involved, it's there, you can take it and walk away with the money. Or you can gamble on a 2/3 chance of getting a better offer in the next round. Choosing not to realise a guaranteed £60,000 gain on the chance...

    Deal or No Deal today - What would you do ?

    Take it. You've got a 1 in 3 chance of getting more than the offer, odds are that you'll end up with less. The morons that tend to appear on that programme probably wouldn't be able to figure that out though.

    " The Premier League has the best quality players in the world"

    1) The last four of Euro 2012 isn't "the world". 2) Does a national side have to reach the last four of a tournament for an individual player to be considered world class? Is Robin Van Persie (for example) a worse player because Holland didn't make it out of their group?

    Holland to progress tonight

    Holland are eliminated and the criteria are reapplied to the remaining teams. Portugal would go through on the head to head against Denmark in this instance. If they still couldn't be separated, e.g. the head to head was a draw, then goal difference in all the group games, then goals scored in...

    Holland to progress tonight

    Head-to-head, then goal difference, then goals scored. A mini league is drawn up of all teams on equal points, and results against anyone with more/less points (Germany, in this instance) are discounted for the purposes of determining 2nd place. I should have writted goal difference in my...

    Holland to progress tonight

    Holland wouldn't go through on the head to head, because they lost to Denmark. They need to beat Portgual by two clear goals to go through on goal difference, assuming that Germany beat Denmark.

    Why on Earth have we changed Kiev to Kyiv

    What has really got my goat during this championship is the pronunciation of Krakow as Crack-OV. Firstly, and primarily, it's wrong. There's a little more to Polish than simply saying "w" as "v". Secondly, if you're going to do that then at least be consistent and attempt to pronounce...

    The Eufa rules on elimination. Does anyone have a view?

    The Netherlands would be elimated from the 'group of 3', as it were, on the basis of goals scored. The criteria (head to head, goal difference, goals scored) would then be reapplied to the Denmark/Portugal game ONLY, and Portugal would go through on the head to head result. I think.

    Economy tyres

    ABS isn't safety critical, it's a driving aid. You won't lose the ability to use your brakes if your ABS fails, but you'll be in a spot of bother if one of your tyres blows out when you're doing 80mph on the motorway.

    Friday's game is a 7.45 kick off

    If it's anything like the one I got in the paper then you've done yourself a favour not paying for it.

    Friday's game is a 7.45 kick off

    They obviously did not check with their colleagues at the Sunday Mirror, who correctly list it as 7:45pm on their wallchart!

    Tyskie

    Tyskie and Zywiec are grim, the Polish equivalent of mass-produced muck like Kronenburg. I think the nicest Polish beer I've had was Smocza Jama Dark.

    France and Greece say NO to austerity

    Your recollection isn't great. Labour lost 1,200 councillors in the 1999 locals, and another 600 the year after.
