Brilliant post, saved me some typing! Yes, it's one of my favourite world cups despite the fact that as you say most of the football was pretty turgid. I think it's the overall vibe about it, which outweighed the actual football. (A bit like a good away trip when the Albion lose but the...

Yeah, guilty as charged. :) I'm afraid, like a lot of people did with the Albion when we slumped down the divisions, I did turn my back on Sussex CCC during the Andrew/Gillespie era. I never went to the matches, I stopped checking the results and the league tables as they depressed me. Fair...

I'm interested in Sussex cricket again!

I think we should drown them out with more tasteful chants, like this one: Two four six eight, Who do we appreciate? Brighton! Brighton! Ra! Ra! Ra! That ought to do it ...

89 is wrong. The slang name for Eggs Benedict is 'eggy benz'. But I do recognise the type of person who would do/say 90% or more of that list. They've always been with us. They're the same people who used to jump up excitedly to dance to 'The Birdie Song', they name their cat 'Rambo', and they...

Yeah, that's probably sadly true. Mind you it's also true for a lot of pubs these days, especially country ones.

Wow. That is both impressive and a bit frightening at the same time.

Yeah, yeah, yeah - but how many of those were at a Wembley final? (I'm not really disagreeing with you, like Whitechapel you're correct, it's just that I'd love to see us win a cup at Wembley - any cup. I'm sick of seeing us lose there)

Yes. Your point is correct, sensible and no sane football fan could argue against it. Obviously I agree with you. However my heart is with @GT49er - I want to win something! This view is heightened by the fact that about an hour ago I woke up from a vivid dream where we beat Man U 5-1 to win...

Well you can f*** RIGHT off! :lolol: The only reason I'm a Cleveland fan is because a dear friend and former business partner of mine was a Steelers fan. He supported them because he once met Terry Bradshaw (famous Steelers QB) on holiday in the USA in about 1977 or 78. This was before the game...

It was great to meet you last night Warren! My name's Tim BTW, I think I just introduced myself as Brovion! The film was really good, really atmospheric. Where was the location?

Oh agreed. It's just that I want him to be complete shit every week, but the Browns to magically keep winning despite having an underperforming QB. (Although as you point out those stats aren't earth-shattering).

Unexpected win for Cleveland, slightly soured by the fact that the **** scored and had a reasonable game.

Oh I remember that. I was in the North Stand and I ran on the pitch when Wilkins scored. I'd never done it before, I'd saved my pitch invasions till the end, but I just got carried away. When I got past the penalty area I remember thinking "What am I doing? I'm 34 years old and I'm running on...

The Royal Sovereign (Middle street) does a reasonable pint of Harvey's. Plus they do fizzy lager. The Bridge I think has Dark Star. Anyway, they're all pretty close, so if one disappoints you can easily find another!

That is the other side of it. Both my children have grown up so I have no family distractions - except when my grandson comes round! I can imagine if you have no workspace and/or a young, demanding family then WFH may not be the right choice. Also see the thread below. In service roles and...

He didn't actually play for Ipswich though did he? Was released as schoolboy iirc.

Really is a ghost now. :( Loved that show as a boy.

Just some people with a theory to string posts together.

I saw Bob Dylan at the Hop Farm festival in 2012 - he was absolutely awful. He never had much of a singing voice anyway, but what he had was completely gone, it was embarrassing. EDIT: I see others have had the same experience. The backing band were great though, it was only by listening to...
