"Any slips left in shower"......... Interesting dress code.........

Came off over a year ago. Haven't missed it. Did go on Threads instead but hardly ever use it. I know what @Lady Whistledown means about all the tedious responses from big 6 followers or the complete d!cks who just bang on about whichever of our players happens to be a compatriot of theirs. I...

True, but I do wonder how Hyppia would have fared if - as I presume was the plan - he'd had a good 2nd in command supporting him. It was how he worked in wherever he was before (Germany?) and iirr Sammy Lee was supposed to be that person but he did the dirty on us and went to Saints.

Agree with that but I like the fact that he's got the confidence to try things like that. I agree he needs to be pragmatic in those situations but I wouldn't want to train that attitude out of him completely.

My first proper job after Uni was in Dept of Transport in London, in Offices in Southwark St SE1. The Friday lunchtime drinks session was a regular thing and I remember all the pubs in the area heaving. There were also some private clubs where you could continue drinking all afternoon after...

No, but would think about one of those Hybrids you plug in, though. I do too many long journeys and don't want to have to fret about where to charge the damned thing up when I'm x00 miles from home. Also, why are EVs so UGLY?? Classic example is the Hyundai Ioniq 5 (although I gather it's...

I have no problem with the high line tactic as long as:- 1) We also do the pressing further upfield to stop the balls in behind the defence 2) The defenders know what they should be doing (Ferdi was out of step yesterday) and 3) We are flexible enough to change during a game if/when it's not...

? Surely if a politician gets a freebie to a footy match it costs the host or away team not the taxpayer, doesn't it?

Hmm, well after one or two performances by refs recently they're lucky they get anything more than a custard pie in the mush!

I remember the score, having to go on the pitch from the NS at some point because of all the argy-bargy, but very little else!

I was in the home crowd too that day (as I thought it was safer after 1 or 2 previous experiences at The Den - pretty sure it wasn't the new one) and did exactly the same thing 🙂.

As Boris probably never ever said to any woman ever........

Was on our 2nd hand record shop 'circuit' that we used to do in Brighton on Saturday mornings before home games in the mid-late 70's. Happy memories. Had no idea about the owner's demise 😮

If you know your early Rock and Roll(*) history, you'll be able to work out my real name. (* Although I'm more into Soul, Disco, Jazz Funk, Northern, etc, etc.)

In the Grauniad today (apologies if already posted - couldn't see it!).

"Two legends of the game" ??. Shurely one legend of the game and Malcolm Allison......

I'm sure I read somewhere that you'd need to replace the roof to get the blue colour back and that the club are 'disappointed' that it's faded so quickly.

Well...he was hardly going to be quoted saying something along the lines of "Crooksy was well past his sell-by date. I think I can improve on that load of old $hyte" was he?

Another subscriber here. I get my vouchers through the post and pop down the local newsagents early every day (gets me out of bed) to get my discounted copy. Also use the online version but as an old git it's still mostly the print for me. Nothing nicer than coming back from the newsagent...

As the father of an son who is diagnosed autistic, more power to your elbow. Our son is now 34 and in a supported living flat, so he's come a long way but here are a few things he used to love when a child. Of course this is based on what floated his boat which may not be the same for your lad...
