Thats the route we're trying ATM. If we can get that up and running, then there will be a series of intensive training modules followed by several trial runs with my old man so he can call it up on the night.

I can well imagine there is an element of football snobbery from players who have played at the highest levels, but who then find themselves in a dressing room with some bloke who only ever played at the arse end of the football league, and who's managerial track record takes in Luton and a...

Cheers @Bozza that might be a useful fallback then. At the moment we're reviving an old iPhone to install Ticketmaster on it, so we can transfer it to their account on the app (they do have their own Ticketmaster account, but only on their laptop atm). My parents are not in the least bit tech...

OK, so my sister and I bought tickets to that Abba Voyage thing for my parents through Ticketmaster for later this month (my sister has the Ticketmaster app on her phone). All fine and dandy, except for the fact that neither my mum or dad have smartphones, just the old ancient clockwork jobbies...

Well he died on his arse when he stepped up to manage a (newly relegated) Stoke didn't he. I think he'll have his work cut out in a PL dressing room where there will be an element of "Nathan who ?", not unlike at Chelsea now, but lower down the scale. He doesn't have much of a CV to fall back...

Yup, I'm game. I drew SPAIN in the pub sweep the other day. Not what they were, but wasn't unhappy with that.

So we only support a team if they're brilliant ?

This is where I am. The "I don't give a f*** about England" brigade are so, SO tiresome, because you know damn well if we go deep, then they'll soon be jumping on the bandwagon and tuning in despite themselves. I've never seen England win anything in my lifetime. Despite the corrupt carve-up...

Eat that, Beardo.

This has been a cruise for Arsenal, Chelsea look so bang-average. Looking forward to the post-match teeth sucking and "it is what it is" soundbites.

Agree with the views that his english has come on leaps and bounds since his arrival. The translator is in the dole queue now. I think Bob had a new word to try out in yesterdays post-match interview, when he described the game as having been "very animated"

Its starting to look like it. AND it cost them £22m when they could've got this guy for nuffin. Shame, that.

He got him sent off. Whats the problem ?

Just finished watching it (the dubbed version - I don't have Netflix, so didn't get the choice). A stunning film of unrelenting grim, the hell and horrors of the battlefields. It truly hammers home the utter futility of war, and at the end, the tragic pointlessness of it all. Seeing it from the...

Its worth remembering that this entire jamboree is just a vehicle for propaganda. There are plenty of reasons to mistrust the various Qatar/FIFA speil. This was a report at the end of May...

OK, I'll happily stand to be corrected when it all starts.

Probably because there simply isn't the demand for it. There are so many reasons NOT to want to go - location, draconian restrictions, logistics, and not least the cost of it, especially in the current economic climate. In terms of travelling fans (actual fans), this will probably be the most...

For the arabs, its all about appearances. Do you think there'll be 50,000 in the stadium for Denmark v Tunisia without a ranch of freebies ? Rafts of empty stands in these gleaming new stadiums would only reinforce the folly of awarding this tournament to a tiny population of migrants living in...

They'll be filling the stands with migrants on freebies. It would be a TERRIBLE look if there are acres of empty stands, they won't allow it. People will be marched in at gunpoint, if necessary.
