With you on the Anthem old boy, but then again he who pays the piper calls the tune, quite literally, however Gerry Cooney came to the ring second when he fought Larry Holmes, the Champion, in Vegas in June 82, he also for the first time in Heavyweight Championship history got the same money as...

Very rare for the challenger to have a rematch clause 🤷‍♂️ But IMHO he’d be extremely foolish to get in the ring with DDD again, whatever the money, as it would be the same outcome, perhaps even less than 5 rounds?

David Beckham made his Manchester United debut as a second half substitute against the Albion in the League Cup at The Goldstone. Where in the ground did you watch it from? I was sat in the West 👍⚽️

Thanks Gents 🥊😂 Currently stuck in traffic at Wembley but worth every minute, a truly historic World Title fight.

For NSCers of a certain age, iconic, the voice of Parker on Thunderbirds and The Daleks. 98 years, an excellent innings……. RIP https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgj463gx8gyo

Another incident that will have people rethinking their funeral music. “I’ll be missing you” was very popular, as was R Kelley’s “I believe I can fly”, rightly so people wont want to go on their final journey to the soundtrack of a Nonce warbling.

Given he effectively spent his last years accusing the Royal Family and the establishment of murder I‘d have thought this would have surfaced a long time ago? Like Savile his victims deserved their day in court.

I would hope Bowls would be one of the 10 sports, apparently the global, ie commonwealth, TV viewing figures are good for the Bowls, might have something to do with the demographic?

Around 36 hours to go, should be a cracker, and also a decent undercard which is a bi product of the Saudi influence. The main event really is a pick ‘em fight, and bizarrely as current IBF champion Dubois is effectively the ‘A’ side. Bags of potential as a young fighter, he’s come up short...

Not a fan then old boy?

Glasgow to step in and host after Australian state of Victoria had previously pulled out over financial concerns. In fairness having had 19 sports featured at the last games in Birmingham, the Glasgow games will be scaled back and only have 10 sports, with again Athletics and Swimming two of...

How long did the late and much missed Roy Chuter have the Duke of Wellington for?

I had the privilege of burying him, superb eulogy by Jim Davidson 👍 Enoch Powell’s parents are buried in Durrington Cemetery.

Next Tuesday 😂

2am bar old boy, didn’t finish eating till 9.45, very laid back but lovely. 👍

Sadly not old boy, Spanish time was an hour ahead and I got picked up at 3.30, so only had phone updates.

Just a quick note Gents, beautiful day, extremely nerve wracking, didn’t have a drink till 10.12pm when I finished speaking, wedding was at 5.30, thank god for water and fanta orange. 😂 Took two gags out on the advice of Mrs H, so thankfully no one was offended. Thanks for all your pointers 👍...

This morning‘s ‘exclusive’ in The Mail fairly damning, there’s probably more chance of seeing Rolf’s painting of the dear old Queen hanging in the Tate than ever seeing Jenas on TV again. We are all flawed, but this one smacks of arrogance and a perception of almost being untouchable.

But I seem to recall that was the game we eventually won 3-2 with the winner coming very late on.

I was indeed. When they asked me about making a phonecall I wanted to ring Priscilla 😂
