    How many countries have you been to and which is your favourite?

    Over 50 but so am I so countries p.a. a bit on the low side. I absolutely love travelling and have just taken a new job where I'll be away about 12-15 weeks a year. 2010 was awesome (as the young ones say): 22 countries in one year. Most of them repeats but SA, Mozambique and Swaziland were...

    The Derby home crowd/tickets sold/seats remaining thread [Merged]

    Nope ... all had to qualify. I tried but got an error message for one of our number who only had 1170. I did get all our tickets shortly after the requirement was relaxed at 2pm.

    Queue on web site for tickets.

    I logged on about 11:30 and got into the site after roughly 40 minutes. Sounds to me like you're in limbo. If I were you I'd logout and start again. Or at least open another browser and start a parallel request. NB ticket site always seems to work better if you're using a PC rather than iPads...

    Competence of the officials

    Fair enough ... embarrassingly for me the law was changed in 1992. But the general tedium of cry-baby football is still, er, tedious.

    Competence of the officials

    They are taught to cheat from an early age. Simples. - defenders in the wall inch forward with ickle steps like 4 year old ballerinas - a goalkeeper barged on the goal line always take the resultant free kick somewhere around the penalty spot - when the ball goes out by corner flag, the...

    What an incredibly dim person I am ... didn't need quite so many of you to point it out though. :dunce:

    Huddersfield

    Pair of empty seats leaving H.Heath about 09:00 if anyone's interested. Contribution towards petrol all that's required. PM me if the thought of spending 12 hours being told about how great it was in the 70s doesn't put you off.

    Season-long bets for 2013-14

    Not quite "season long" but still hoping that early December's investment in BHA to reach the play-offs @ 5/2 will turn out to be a cheap way of funding a Wembley day out and PL season tickets.

    Late Kick Off & Paul Barber

    I think it ought to worry them ... it does mean they'll have to recruit 10 players on £50,000 a week LESS than if they didn't have the fine. Or if they take a slightly longer view then it's 10 players x £15,000 p.w. for THREE years. Or else they will fall foul of FFP in the Premiership. Surely...

    Dissertation help needed

    I agree with previous comments and guidance - your questions appear to be leading and suggest a certain bias on your part. More worryingly, I get the impression that you're viewing the commercialisation of football as a sudden and relatively recent development. It has always been...

    Ah yes, see your point ... they're not floating in the sea like lots of very big ice cubes! Cool ... I'm off to read a thread about football.

    O/T

    Assumptions: - glass is filled to brim before experiment starts - Ice cubes, like icebergs, are supposedly 90% below the water line - according to the dark recesses of horshamite's mind, water expands by 1/9th when it freezes Workings: - 1/9 of the 90% of the ice cube below the water line...

    FA Cup Winners should go into Champions League

    I think OP's proposal implies that Wigan only won the FA Cup because the high and mighty didn't take it seriously. With a CL place on offer, The Cup would be reinvigorated but then clubs like Wigan wouldn't stand a chance. Although it's a nice idea in theory, the vested interests of UEFA, the...

    Alan Mullery Live!
