Well, yeah. I despise Man U as much as the rest of the country, but the Liverpool plackies have taken it to a whole new level IMO. "Their team" are the current media darlings, have been for a while, and in the process have scooped up an astonishing number of brainwashed drooling slack-jawed...

I feel your cringe. When I saw the 'Brighton Kop' on YouTube, I cringed so hard I almost ruptured a kidney. I should be able to tolerate it. There's nobody in their team I particularly dislike, although Salah is a natural-born gravity whore, but he's hardly alone in that. They play good...

That'd be the same Liverpool who were one of the driving forces behind the whole idea, but then got cold feet at the last minute over the backlash. Don't think that they won't have their noses out of the trough with every other 'elite club' when the next mealy-mouthed bright idea comes around...

Truly UNBEARABLE plastics for me. Yeah I know all the big 6 have them, but honestly, Liverpool are now the KINGS of plastics. I feel physically revolted at their stolen empty glory. I know a couple of them, and they do nothing but bask in their fake adoration of a football club they've never...

Added to the fact that the majority of the time at Withdean we were scuffling around in the noddy leagues, with the occasional foray up into the Championship (the level where Palace financially doped themselves into remaining by stiffing all and sundry and paying 2p in the £). I wonder how many...

Bit harsh on Fred Dineage. He doesn't come out this way that often, to my knowledge.

That, or the fact most of their fanbase are retired so a midweek 7pm is ideal. Back in time for Newsnight.

Dean Court (#pedant). Always sounded more like a block of flats than a football ground. Its changed names about 5 times since then, which is always a sign of RAMPANT tinpottery.

Anyone over the age of 13 wearing a baseball cap deserves a good shoeing. And if its a NY one, they should be publically flayed in Trafalgar Square.

I watched it back a few years ago, its one of the most GOD-AWFUL games you would ever see. The two most terrible teams in the entire Football League going head-to-head, and boy does it look like it. I'd rather sit down and watch a jelly set than go through that again.

More likely to jimmy a back window open, I'd have thought.

Kindle. I've read about 7 books this year on it. Currently reading Jimmy White Second Wind (99p). I bloody LOVE browsing cheap books, which I can then view instantly, and on a splendid matt screen in the sunshine, no reflections, its like a paper page. And I can read it in darkness in bed at...

I'm trying not to be snobby, and I was up for a bit of third division thud and blunder, but it truly was absolute junk. The stadium was 3/4 empty, and the game was a disjointed mess (which Dongs won 2-0). It was great seeing Elliott Bennett turn out for the Shrews, he still showed some nice...

I was at MK Dongs v Shrewsbury a couple of weeks ago. Incredible was not the word.

Just sensational entertainment. Football doesn't get much better than that.

Thats an ultra-jaundiced view of things to take, particularly when its hardly a uniquely BHA thing. Would you prefer there were NO pints and pies available at HT ? (well there were no burgers in the WSU yesterday, but I digress). Personally I like a quick half time pint and a catch-up on the...

Because it wasn't a "definite" penalty. Yes there was contact, but largely created by the fop-haired little turf magnet. Contact and going to ground does NOT = penalty. It was not a clear and obvious error for the referee not to award it, so the onfield decision stands. VAR quite right not to...

Bang average.
