My Gran used to live very near the Pebble Mill studios, it was always exciting to go past there when visiting her and you could see the programme being filmed!

The accusation was that Monk was very closely linked to an agent and was getting handsomely rewarded for such contacts, which meant certain players got signed and played, and those he had no such connection with did not. It was alleged that he effectively had his hands in the till. The owners...

Very harsh - yes. From 1995 onwards Albion had 16 managers in 14 years. Blues have not had that many but you won’t find a Blues fan out there happy with what has gone on for the last 10+ years. The owners have had to be hounded out, look at the many lengthy investigations done by a fan called...

I think that phrase is extremely harsh. No doubt their faceless Chinese owners screwed them around for more than 10 years starting with the sacking of Rowett, and selling off the ground (sound familiar?) and their fans have suffered ever since and been shouting it out to anyone listening. Two...

Rooney’s record has actually been about average. At Derby he worked under very trying circumstances with a big points deduction and was reasonably popular I believe despite the relegation. I didn’t really follow his stint in the US but it seemed a bit meh more than anything. I’d go average...

I’m back from the rugby in Marseille late Monday, hacking it up to Wembley on Tuesday (when honestly I haven’t got time to go) just to make sure I get the caps too. I shall make a citizen‘s arrest of anyone I see scamming the system so they can get tickets for Germany 2024…….. 😆

I hope those selling won’t be claiming said caps too then …… 😳

They are definitely not at the moment but the owners have big plans, including a new stadium. From Carling Cup winners and Europa League in 2011, their decline has been incredible. But I do think that from years of mediocrity they arE now on the way back and whether or not Rooney works out...

I have a lot of family/friends who are Blues fans. There is pretty much wholehearted disbelief at this decision, Eustace was popular although that had waned with a poor run of results in September halted by the 2 recent wins. The new CEO has links to Rooney and it’s believed there will be some...

Would have been interesting if Celtic had to play in Israel!

Not unless you’ve suffered with stubborn limescale in your kitchen or bathroom

Really excellent second half, learning as we go. Happy with that!!

Don’t like to tell you this but they appear to have nicked the rest of your stuff …… 😆

I sent mine back for similar reasons. I haven’t replaced it with a smaller size, think I’d really want to try the thing on before buying another!

More or less, they are based in Le Touquet: https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20230907-le-touquet-the-most-british-of-french-resorts#:~:text=Le%20Touquet%2DParis%2DPlage%20sits,so%20French%20in%20le%20Touquet!

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cycling/66786721 Would be nice to see him get the 35th stage win - go Cav!

Will the replay be scheduled in the same week as the Liverpool v Wolves replay from the FA Cup last season, because that would then get Klopp moaning about fixture congestion?

Wasn't just me noticing that in the south of France then …… 🥰

They definitely do those nice squares better than we do, with cafes and bars where people just enjoy watching the world go by. I know we have some, like the old market squares, but not in the same way or volume France or Germany has them with a cafe culture. If they are no longer used for...

I was in that square myself only a few weeks ago for the rugby. Are you at Monsieur Albert?
