Really not sure how Moeen Ali has made it to your shortlist :lolol:

If we are talking best sportsman, other than Bradman it could only be Brian Jacks

Hotshot Hamish is a good shout! As for the rest ……

This is Jack Grealish’s best chance of being nominated …..

So far ahead of anyone else who has played the sport (batting at least), it has to be the Don.

No, it was a Saturday 3pm ko. The away fans had part of the big terrace behind the goal, there was the enormous stand on one side when the money ran out and the other 3 sides looked a bit lost before Sir Jack came to their rescue. I think Eric Young scored the winner.

Last time I went there to see Albion was in December 1984, a 1-0 win in front of about 7,000 fans. Nice greeting from the Subway Army on the walk in from the station. I doubt much has changed since then! :ascarf:

I’m doing the Berlin derby in January in the Olympic Stadium, a bit of a bowl but it at least means tickets should be easy enough to get.

I’ve done about 50 European grounds. Dortmund is great for sure. Some others Ive been to that I would recommend (I’m sure there are many others): San Siro (always a game there of course, easy enough to get tickets) Valencia Amsterdam Arena Feyenoord Malmo Anderlecht Benfica PSV and...

Fair enough but that’s a bit contradictory from your previous post, to which I replied, which said: “Far from being deserving of respect, I feel they are a force for bad in our nation and beyond. I've not heard a single coherent argument to convince me otherwise.” So I responded with a...

Yes, you are correct. It is right to say that Cromwell had a significant role in Irish history but that was before King Billy’s involvement at the Battle of the Boyne.

I will give you just one example. Have you heard anyone say anything other than praiseworthy comments about Queen Elizabeth’s non-political role in the Irish Peace process? Both sides of the community north and south of the border were aligned in their comments and overwhelming praise. Could...

I’m going to see a Dorking Wanderers game soon - anyone been there? They seem to be at least holding their own for now.

True - I estimate that approximately half would be women.

There’s a welcome home for those who really don’t like the Royal Family: https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1670921/celtic-fans-st-mirren-banner-and-chant-queen-scottish-premiership/amp Wow 😯 And they were not the only ones north of the border...

You arrive top right of the stairs in this picture so no going through the corridors, literally the hall is the only part of the building you go into

I did it yesterday. Joined the back of the queue at 05:30, entered the hall at 16:45. I have got to say that I found it quite a moving experience. The queue itself sounds daunting but it was a lovely atmosphere, you spoke to lots of people you would normally just have passed on the street, it...

OK - creative knitters of North Stand Chat, this is your big chance: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-62893596 Please put pictures of your efforts on here!

Are we going to contact lens? :blush:

I went to the Ivy in Cobham and Wayne Bridge was in there. Didn’t see John Terry though.
