Don't get the criticism of Hurzeler's lack of subs today. Liverpool could bring on quality attackers after an hour. Ideally, our response would have been to bring on defenders (we had only Lamptey), or someone to regain midfield control (Baleba obviously not fit enough to be risked). Had we...

Hurzeler interviewed on Sky said Baleba had a knock, wasn't available midweek and not ready to start today.

When Alan Biley signed for the Albion he stayed for a while with the landlord of my parents' local. The landlord was an old friend having previously had a pub in Cambridge. Biley organised some of the players to come and play a match against the darts team and, after a bounce out, Joe Corrigan...

Kate had a number two single with 'More Than In Love' and was one of the lead vocalists on Spitting Image's No 1 'The Chicken Song'. I own both singles. Ted was also 'The Guvnor' in a BBC Children's TV show called 'The Slammer' that my kids used to like. It was the first place they saw McFly...

Given that the Haka is a ritual belonging to the people that New Zealand was taken from, the equivalent response from the English (Angles) would be to retort with a ritual belonging to the people who were there when they invaded, the ancient Celts. Archeologists have found evidence of...

I'm sorry to say that his spell of good form is now over. I stuck him in my fantasy league team last week.

Enciso is 20 years old. He was 18 when he scored the Chelsea and City goals! He then he lost a season through injury. Like Ferguson he needs to be supported, nurtured and developed. Buonanotte is six months younger, but hasn't had the injury gap and has played more EPL minutes than Julio...

Palace fan Ed Aarons covered our EFL Cup game in the week. He obviously had to do some research and found a nugget that he couldn't resist sharing. He didn't phrase it well: His framing of it when he simply had to shoehorn it into the match report wasn't much better. His sentence was so...

From the Guardian's article on the story: "The paper tested the “infinite monkey theorem”, a thought experiment demonstrating that an infinite amount of time can make something that is incredibly unlikely become probable, by asking what would happen if generous yet finite limits were placed on...

Was never a huge fan of 'The Good Life' but have to watch the Christmas special every year just for Margot saying 'Christmas has not been delivered to this house.' Will sit through any episode of Porridge any time I catch the beginning of one. The Young Ones can never age for me. It is...

Lamptey looked lively going forward and he and Gruda combined well in Liverpool's half. He struggled with Gakpo's physicality and looked isolated at times. I'm not clever enough to understand this inverted full back business, but he didn't seem to cope with it as well as Veltman has and he...

Yep, the talk of all economists at the election was that whoever won would have to break the promises they were all making not to raise taxes. The only alternative was to pursue the Trusslike wishful thinking policies that Reform were proposing and we all saw what the market did the last time...

A lot of songs have led me to other art, particularly books, though films and other muscians too. This 1992 Number one in Peel's Festive Fifty: led me to this fantastic 1989 novel by Katherine Dunne: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geek_Love This Commotions classic: led me to Joan Didion's...

:ROFLMAO: Always funny. Presumably: Gully, Fozzie, Fatboy, Eubank, Cate Blanchett in her LotR get up, Zoe Ball in the '2' headphones*, Nick Cave** behind her? * Can't be Annie Nightingale, no leopardprint. ** After that, I don't believe in an interventionist god either Nick.

Probably listed as Ferguson

Looks like he's never going to make the four more EPL starts he needs to get to that 20 you said he'd never reach. :ROFLMAO:

All fair choices re: the Cure and of course there is never a correct answer. It's just been a standing joke in our house that my wife will read the paper and say that Petedris has done whichever band and that the most obvious choice that would be made by the man in the street will never be at...

Nerve injury was it?

And Julio. Ferguson doesn't currently look ready to play at full pelt for 90 minutes, so the load is going to have to be shared and if Welbeck's not ready, Enciso has to be. There has been lots of talk of Ferguson not scoring for the Albion since November 2023 and he's taken part in 22...

And the only sound that's left after the ambulances go, Is Cinderella sweeping up on Desolation Row. (Trained yesterday, late decision to be taken).
