So do I. Its gonna be one of those nights......7-1 to the Albion....a new Amex record.

Not difficult. These wounds are very recent, are still open and gaping and will take a long time, if ever, to heal. Why on earth someone has tried to use the feelgood factor of Olympic success to sneer at those who genuinely voted for something they believed in, is beyond me. Its either a...

.....and agreed that the Lottery should be re-tendered for every five years but it appears that every five years only one company appears on the tender list.

Years ago, the limited success we had was purely down to a very talented sportsperson, here or there. The bulk of the medals often came in track and field. Four golds in Tokyo, the Coe/Ovett/Thompson era etc. There was the odd shooting, swimming, equestrian medal but that was about it. In 1960...

As the seconds ticked down, deep deep into stoppage time, in the Donny game, I just felt a sense of relief that we hadn't lost our opening game at the Amex. It had been a scrappy and nervous performance but Buckley, coming on as sub had rescued a point with that late volley. Nooney then got the...

Of course it could happen. As outsiders, we do not hear and feel the mood of the people at grass roots level in the USA. If you went out onto the streets of Britain pre-Brexit, you would have felt this undercurrent of disenchantment and unhappiness. People wanted change and a simple yes/no vote...

" Zero chance they will bring many fans ".............we'll see.

Those of us with fairly long memories will remember Malcolm Allison spending north of £0.75m on a pretty ordinary player called Steve Daley. I believe he moved from Wolves to Man City. The football world was shocked then and never really recovered from this ridiculous bar-raising. All of a...

Anyone going to Burnley knows its a one season stay in the PL.

Football has gone mad and bears no relation to the real world. Those with an agenda, i.e those making a very nice living out of football, argue that its market forces. It isn't. Its an artificially rigged market ( like housing ) to benefit players and agents. They hold all the cards now and know...

These people should be fined and/or imprisoned for going on holiday in the first place. The country needs everybody working every waking hour, not lounging unproductively on beaches and around swimming pools. This sort of slovenly behaviour was the reason that fascism gained popularity in the...

If this thread is attempting to be funny, clever or sarcastic, it fails miserably on all counts.

Very roughly....... 1) Teabag...................1p 2) Milk........................2p 3) Sugar.....................0.75p per spoonful. 4) Water.....................Minimal 5) Service..................£8 per hour split down to 10-15 seconds......0.25p Answer.....change out of 5p. ( Cost on the...

I'm about 10 years less than you in watching BHA but will also vouch for Armstrong. He was breathtakingly quick but as previously mentioned, little or no end product. The tactics were simple....kick off and launch the ball into the far left hand corner. Light the blue touch paper and watch...

.....look out the window and you might just see fat pink things soaring gracefully on the thermals.

Clearly not a purist. Thank God you weren't around to watch Bailey, Boycs, Barrington or Tavare grinding it out. Or R G Nadkhani ( 32 - 27 - 5 - 0 ) including 131 successive dot balls v England in 1964.

Corals are confident enough to make Newcastle the ',scratch ' team in the division. You can get 18-1 on the following points handicap. Villa +8 Norwich +8 Derby +11 BHA +12 Wed + 15 You've got to fancy us with a 12 point start.

..or Reading.

25/30. Kicking myself over some very silly mistakes. Couldn't decide between Edwine and Edwy. Thought Black Death and Bubonic Plague were the same thing and plumped for wrong one. Knew Tories/Whigs but inexplicably clicked wrong one. Got two historical dates wrong on 50/50 calls. So near and yet...
