My sympathies - now doubly glad to be escaping somewhere south of HK over the New Year so it will be a nice evening kick-off for me

Didn't see this first time round ... or at least I imagine I didn't.
Steve Ford: if memory serves, scored something like 69 of the 120-odd goals scored by Hove Grammar first XI (3rd year) in 1971/72 when he would have been about 13 or 14. He later played for England schoolboys and was allowed...
Thoroughly enjoyable if you ask me. I've seen Rooney shaken by a majestic Paddy, West Ham humiliated (apparently), Pulis disappointed, Rafa disgruntled, the glorious PaLLLLLLLace sequence, relief from intermittent Nigel infestations on here and the Dunk & Duffy fan club founded on MOTD2. Most of...
VII = one of DB's tattoos (roman numerals for 7 of course)
Brooklyn = we all know. Born in March 1999
The Latin bit = as described above
The only thing we don't know is why yesterday and why The Amex
Landed yesterday ... expected to be a bit buggered by the time change but woke up an hour ago like a kid on Christmas morning. Wish I could bottle The Amex as a jet lag cure.
Looking forward to a titanic struggle of centre halves settled by one of our pacey princes doing a full back, cutting...
If you want to decide what is/isn't right in US sports culture from afar, go ahead. But, do tell, what are you going to do about salary caps, scalpers, tee shirt canons, cheerleaders, hot dogs, unsustainable transport, unsegregated crowds, games played in different time zones, the franchise...
It's a way of life over here - nothing unusual. San Diego is almost certainly about to lose its NFL team and is powerless (ish) to stop it.
Austin is I believe the largest US City without a major sports team. It's also a great place despite being in Texas. Ohio is infinitely forgettable. I...
What complete twaddle. Unlike clubs with a shared sense of purpose and identity, the Croydon Circus unexpectedly found themselves in the Premier League and considered their options:
- club risen Phoenix like from the cusp of oblivion? Oh bugger, that won't work, we played the Admin joker twice...
It’s probably a bit of a long shot but does anyone know if a reserve game shows up on purchase history? I can’t readily check from over here but it might just solve the OP’s problem for a couple of quid. Make sure it’s being played at Falmer, mind.
In all likelihood PB and friends have...
What is most worrying is the way the line keeps creeping imperceptibly forward. What was acceptable yesterday will cause offence tomorrow. I don’t generally have a problem with this. Society evolves, values change. Once upon a time I felt superior to racists, male chauvinist pigs and apologists...
Oh goody, something to take my mind off the tedium of yet another cloudless day in this neck of the woods. I think you may wish to reconsider your slightly rash and, I have to say unnecessarily abrasive, intervention on two counts: one hinges on the core values of MC, the other mundane but...
Yes, very risky ... it's unworkable when the antecedent Third Wednesday move is locked by a pre-antecedent Third Tuesday move. In short, Highgate is out of bounds until midnight strikes in Hawaii.
To keep things moving, may I substitute Ruislip Manor on your behalf?
