    Referee

    A throw is never taken from exactly the right place, its just a question as to how much 'approximation' is to be allowed. In my view, for a ref to informally warn a player that he's pushing the boundaries a bit and not to push it, keeps the game flowing and is to be applauded.

    goals tonight

    Tough call tho for the ref - millimetres in it. Most refs would have called that as a freekick. Terrible wall, but well played Kaz - he played for the jump.

    Anyone work for BT/Openreach?

    Yeah I did that. Its useful for venting, but they don't do anything. I was entitled to compensation. I'm just planning how to spend it. They are going to give me £3.75. I take it all back, they really know how to look after their customers.

    Anyone work for BT/Openreach?

    Fantastic info - thanks for that. I knew there'd be someone on NSC with the knowledge. There always is. For the record, it did stop after a thunderstorm, and I did all the above swapping out etc, including different router. It was clear though that there was no dsl coming through on the line...

    Anyone work for BT/Openreach?

    I think I detect a touch of sarcasm.

    Anyone work for BT/Openreach?

    Thanks for that - and other replies. I'll try that one. Trouble is I'm going to be moving house in a month or so, so I don't actually want to terminate it and move to someone else. The phone line is working and clear. It just get the impression that the DSL has been accidently switched...

    Anyone work for BT/Openreach?

    Broadband has been out for a week now. It is absolutely impossible to get any information out of BT as to when and if it's ever going to get fixed. There is absolutely no way to escalate the problem past the offshore help desk who call me back every now and then and ask me if it's working. I get...

    [Football] John Terry

    As previously said - Terry's record for England is of making monumental howlers in defense. As previously stated, the one against Germany where he inexplicably sprinted twenty yards forward leaving him on the half way line as the ball sailed over his head to the German strikers was far worse...

    Goal line technology....

    It was absolutely necessary to show both shots. It showed conclusively that the first effort was not a goal but that the keeper subsequently took it over the line. There are millions of pounds worth of 'next goalscorer' betting money hanging on those two decisions. All thats needed now is...

    Mortgages

    I had the full structural survey on my house. I got a 32 page document describing the blatently obvious (e.g there is no banister on the stairs) and completely missing the incredibly important (e.g the dry rot, that cost me ten grand to sort out a year later). They were covered by caveat of...

    Who is NSC most famous poster

    Anyone play the GUITAR?

    My advice is, once you've mastered the basics, try to jam with other people or even better get in a band. It doesn't matter how crap it is at first, but it really helps to accelerate your learning, especially timing. And there's a real buzz when you hear it coming together.

    Jessie Lindgard... is a second loan spell possible

    Its bizarre how we can watch the same players in the same matches on the same pitch and see such different things. For me Lingard was not a patch on Barnes. Both had an indifferent scoring rate, but Barnes was streets ahead in terms of holding the ball up, bringing other players into the game...

    NSC Motorcyclists...

    I have an NC700X - black, just like the picture. Had it about a year. Love it. The onboard storage is superb. I've got the manual version. The DCT auto is supposed to be great, but it does add a fair whack onto the price. Not a fast bike by any means - the engine is a low-revving torquey...

    Is John Motson a good football commentator?

    What annoys me about him is that when the replay clearly shows his first call was wrong, he sticks by it claiming the replay confirms his call, even when it clearly doesn't.
