    [News] Jermaine Jenas sacked…

    Fair play, taking the cynical view, they’ve probably got decent ratings using him yesterday “No f*** off” 🙈

    [News] Jermaine Jenas sacked…

    I’m with you on this old boy, if it was that cut and dried Talk Sport would have dropped him like a stone, not had him presenting one of the most traditionally listened to shows ( when we are all going home, hence drive time) within minutes/hours of his sacking breaking in the news, and it’s not...

    [Football] Sir Gary Lineker - 25 years at the MotD helm

    The Jenas thing is completely left field, he was commentating for TNT at Ipswich on Saturday, so clearly there’s something about to come out and the Beeb after Huw Edwards have made a pre emptive strike. Lets hope it’s actually something genuine rather than trial by media?

    [Football] Sir Gary Lineker - 25 years at the MotD helm

    A great achievement, but you do wonder how it would have turned out if Des, hadn't jumped ship to ITV? How long would have Des gone on for at the Beeb? And would young Gary have tired of being the support act and either gone to, ironically, ITV or Sky?

    [Music] The Live Music thread

    Both my offspring at Wembley tonight for Ms Swift, not my bag but apparently she does over 3 hours 15 and normally sings 48 songs in her set. Whether your a fan or not that’s pretty impressive 👍

    [Football] Raheem Sterling

    As Mr Potter discovered its not about the 11 you pick its dealing with the 32, and clearly their agents, you don't! Whilst I'd imagine the money is good, GP still reportedly gets £600,000 after deductions every month, Maresca will discover fairly quickly the shitshow he's inherited.

    [Football] Jordan vs Parish, there's only one way to sort this out........

    Clearly there's Simon's version, Steve's version and potentially the truth in the middle? So did Steve P effectively do the dirty on SJ and pick Palace up for next to nothing?

    [Politics] Protests/rioting in lots of places

    Maybe before, but take Worthing, both East and West, back in the day it was said you could put a Blue rosette of a Chimpanzee and the good burghers would return it as their honourable member. We now have two Labour members in each of the seats, as you say safe seats are now probably as rare as...

    [Albion] RDZ's Albion v FB's Albion

    Which is almost the worry, have we peaked? Is it all down hill from here?:D

    Do we go with the Australian answer and fine people for not voting?

    [Politics] Protests/rioting in lots of places

    Almost the same as KS getting 37% of a 62% turnout, it’s our electoral system, which apparently was once the envy of the rest of the world 🤷‍♂️

    [Cricket] Graham Thorpe RIP

    https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/dec/29/former-boxing-champion-ricky-hatton-attempted-suicide-depression Thankfully one British sporting icon who has emerged the other side from that dark cloud of depression ❤️

    [Cricket] Graham Thorpe RIP

    When I first started funeral directing nearly 40 years ago, the Catholic Church, courtesy of Pope John Paul 2, had only just started letting suicide victims have a service in Church as it was previously deemed a sin and a Mass was not an option.

    [Cricket] Graham Thorpe RIP

    From the outset old boy I consider we are both on the same side here, and whilst I appreciate the UK is not unique to mental health issues I do feel the Govt (s), both past and present, should be doing more. Funding an extensive NHS counselling network would be a start, rather than relying on...

    [Cricket] Graham Thorpe RIP

    Its not just cricket the UK has a problem with both mental health and a suicide epidemic, and until the authorities publicly acknowledge this, and start doing something positive, sadly Graham Thorpe will just be another statistic.

    [News] Body Washed Up Seaford Beach

    A very dear friend, now no longer with us , was talked down by a Chaplain at Beachy Head. * This suicide issue and the non mention of it now in the media is a huge issue for me. There is a mental health/suicide epidemic in this country, regardless of the colour of their rosette, ie it won’t...

    [News] Katie Price - Queen of Chavs

    O/T on our coach to Manchester United in 1993 someone arrived at Worthing Station with a copy of “101 great oral c** shots”, to be fair by Number 44 there was a clamour for Al Pacino’s Scarface to be put on, which we promptly did. So El Pres 1) Do you have a copy? 2) Are 45-101 worth a...

    [News] Body Washed Up Seaford Beach

    I had the honour of looking after one of the last Dunkirk veterans, to sit and listen to his eulogy knowing what he went through as a young man, but what he went in to achieve in his life, was truly humbling ❤️

    [Football] 3pm kick offs shown live.

    Apologies if fixtures. Coming back from a lovely day out at Tilgate Park with my Grandson, being offered, via ITV and Sky, not one but 3 live games of football, all having kicked off at 3pm I must have missed it in the summer, but clearly the EFL has finally sold its soul. 🙈

    [Politics] The 2024 US Election - *MATCH DAY*

    Not that’s it’s looked upon outside Sussex as a political barometer, but for the first time since Biden pulled out NSC has Harris the next resident of the White House. Will this be replicated in the US in November? As I said back in July when a very level headed lady from the US told me on...
