    The Official Spanish Dave Free Kick Compendium

    Check out the bloke on the extreme right-hand side of the shot, beating the seat in frustration just after Mr Turnaround-Pissed-Off – five seconds in. Meanwhile I was about to see stars from celebrating so hard... :O Happiest of days.

    What was your personal highlight from sunday?

    Is my answer as well. What a moment - if anybody hasn't seen the YouTube footage ("F*ckin' 'ave it, f*ckin' 'ave it!"), I strongly recommend you seek it out to hear the noise when that one went in. Unbridled joy.

    Barcelona Restaurant Recommendations

    You'd probably have to give them a bit of notice for such a big table (or go out to eat at dinner at a British rather than Spanish time, when there may still be room) but I strongly recommend Los Caracoles. On the Calle Escudelleres, about two-thirds of the way down La Ramblas on the left-hand...

    The Papers

    The Express don't have their facts right - they seem to have forgotten October 17th 2005.

    Cheltenham 4.00 tip

    Old as in 'old son', 'my dear old thing' etc. Not as in elderly. Nice tippage.

    Cheltenham 4.00 tip

    Came second. An e/w would have paid nicely to anybody who followed your advice, old boy.

    Three days to go...

    If you'll all forgive me the self-indulgence of plugging my own blog on here, I've written about that very thing. I can't recall looking forward to a game with such dread for some time. The countdown.

    Idea for a game with cash prize(s)

    Simple, easy to separate the ties, sounds like a winner. I actually like the Vicente idea - how many starts as a second tiebreaker, just in case the winners have predicted the same number of goals as well. Or they could just share the loot of course.

    [Albion] New kit, with Amex sponsorship

    Is the right answer. It's what all civilised fans-about-town are wearing, and far from the atrocity they're about to impose upon us. They're supposed to be stripes, not three-foot-wide bars that make us look like a washed-out West Brom.

    Crap players that have won things

    I was going for Traore too, WhingForPresident. Liverpool should have been awarded two European Cups for winning that competition with him in the side.

    Question on the rules of the game.

    Then it'd be a corner, if none of the attacking players had touched it.

    Question on the rules of the game.

    What El Pres said. It's a goal kick, if the throw-in came from an attacking player.

    Ian Hollaway on a billboard in Streatham

    Needless to say, I disagree. Affordable. Decent transport links (three stations connecting to town). Restaurants from all over the world on the High Road (which has a bad rep, but on which I've never had any bother whatsoever) and as soon as you're off the main road, it's quiet, with nice...

    Ian Hollaway on a billboard in Streatham

    Wrong type of crime - crime against property is viewed much, much more dimly than crimes against people these days. I'd be lucky to get away with crucifixion...

    Ian Hollaway on a billboard in Streatham

    How long do you think it would take for the police, if it came to that, to come knocking on my door anyway? Registered Brighton fan living in Streatham? I'd be stitched up like a kipper, guv, an' no mistake. You don't even have to look at it daily, old chap – if it bothers you that much, I...

    Ian Hollaway on a billboard in Streatham

    I pass that wretched thing every single day. :sick: There was one even closer to my house, no more than a minute's walk (mercifully not visible to me) a while back, plugging their infamous '2 for 1' Groupon thingy. One of the drawbacks of living where I do, unfortunately. I can't tell you how...

    Who Threw The Bottle ?

    a big thankyou to souhampton fc

    If you rely on it or let it get out of hand, yeah. But I spend £5 per week, for fun only, and am currently £260 up on the season. Small potatoes to some gamblers, but it adds to the weekend for me.

    Extended highlights - why no Dann's tackle

    Right in front of me, that. Red card all day long - how the ref can see it, then speak to his linesman, then still issue a yellow, is completely beyond me. Just below the knee, studs up, on the shin of Hammond's standing leg. Very lucky he didn't snap it like a twig - an absolutely cast-iron...
