I think this World Cup is really petering out at the knockout stages. Don't think there's been a single upset in who has progressed, and the vast majority of the games have been pretty dull. The straight knockout stage should produce lots of excitement, and hopefully last minute drama (since...

As a nurse I have had a few experiences of dealing with stoma bags... I would say that with your problem (which isn't uncommon) getting an adequate seal is vital. If you're finding that the bag itself isn't providing this you could try duoderm which is a protective dressing...
Henry is done now. He was pretty good, except for a terrible habit:
Discussing a controversial decision, someone says something like 'it was never a foul', which everyone in the world understands as 'it shouldn't have been awarded as a foul', and Henry responds with 'it was, because the referee...
Bobby Jean, bittersweet but upbeat
The Promise, weepy
The Wrestler, just sounds like it would work (though it's not a track I'm massively fond of)
Racing in the Street, Springsteen Classic!
The problem for me is that, as we've seen recently, any attempt to improve the England side looks inevitably to harm the Football League structure. Simply, the FA will not take any action that will harm the big clubs, so instead it will be the little clubs who have to be used like a England...
Saw them at The Haunt before Christmas, hence giving this one a miss, and really enjoyed them then - they're a charisma vacuum but they play amazingly together, and I'm quite a fan of bands who turn up, play the hell out of the place for a decent amount of time, and leave, without lots of...
Listening to the FA Cup commentary on Radio 5 and I'm pretty sure that Alan Green would have been a safe bet as a complete prat. He's such a sneering **** - on Giroud, "how does he start for France?", yes, because no good player has ever had a bad game. All his incredulity over what he perceives...
Don't worry. The Premier League has taken an approach to ensure that the Premier League doesn't suffer in comparison to the excitement to the Championship. Unfortunately that didn't mean trying to make their league more competitive and enjoyable, but rather taking aggressive steps to ensure that...
The ref was farcical today. Unlike some I'm not sure he got many big decisions wrong, but he was very much a reactive referee rather than making his won decisions - there was one clear foul that he waited until we had to ball again to blow for, as if he was scared to blow it if Blackpool had...
I'm really enjoying this, but it's a real change of pace from the first series and I seriously doubt I will ever become as fond of it as I did to that. I'm missing Coogan the **** - he's just trying to be too likeable in this. I'm also missing the quick fire impressions - it seems to me like...
Has anyone actually nominated the Cliftonville yet? I have to walk past it to work at 6.30 every morning - if it was open, it would be populated by weird, sweaty blokes smoking each other's fag ends with their dogs on a string. It never ceases to amaze me how utterly grotty it is.
Oh, and I...
I'd like to nominate the Stanmer Park Tavern. Horrible, look over your shoulder, place. Although when I was in there before christmas thy had a non-sensual offer where you got a free pint if you were wearing a christmas jumper, which was nice since we definitely only wanted to stay for one!
I think it was more to create a sense of continuity with the first series - a reference back. To be fair, though, one of the main themes of the show is that Brydon gets repetitive using the same old impressions, so it makes sense story wise!
I thought this was really good. Not as good as the...
Other reasons -
- players have all the power now, and their value as an individual is far more important than their value to a team. Therefore, players are likely much less inclined to play. Because players have all the power, clubs are in less of a position to insist see RVP this season for...
My favourite bit in the BBC article is where the bloke argues that there should be a 'best before' date on the kits so that fans can make a choice based on whether it will be around long. Is anyone seriously thick enough not to realise that as soon as the next tournament starts there will be a...
