    Official Running Thread

    Good luck to all running tomorrow, I hope it doesn't get too hot for you. I'll be entering next year if I fail to get a place in London again. I ran 3-36-51 aged 50 in Manchester last week, my all-time PB is 2-56 back in 1994 in the now defunct Polytechnic Marathon.

    Sami Hyypia

    Foreigner? 10 years at Liverpool, only 40yo - he's hardly a fresh one, just off the plane and unable to speak a word of English. Hyypia would be a very exciting appointment, I hope this happens.

    Oscar Pistorius

    I haven't read this thread. I have watched (or listened) to most of the witness testimony live on Sky News. In my opinion Prestorius knew exactly what he was doing and who was behind that door when he pulled the trigger. However I also think the defence has raised just about enough doubt to get...

    THIRTY-ONE years ago today

    Great memories. Jimmy Case's shot would have taken my head-off if the back of the net hadn't got in the way. Second greatest Albion day of all time for me, the Liverpool away win in the fifth round being number one.

    Online poker, anyone play?? just done my bankroll on 1 hand.

    That's one hell of a sick beat. But it must be in the back of your mind that quads is a possibilty with so much action. You should never put your whole bankroll on one table again or you'll end up going busto. Good BRM is crucial, the OP has learned this lesson the hard way.

    Who is 'IH8PALACE' on Sky Poker?

    Superb choice of screen name. This guy just shipped the UKOPS High Roller event, the biggest prize won in the history of Sky Poker. The first thing he typed in the chatbox after taking it down was 'Seagulllllls!'. Apparently he's from Haywards Heath...

    Amex 30/11 Heli Pics

    Superb, the real thing looks beautiful, so much better than those artists impressions back in the planning stages.

    Weather in West Country

    I'm posting from Exeter. There is no snow here at all. There's only been some light wet sleet. Exeter has a mild micro-climate and isn't usually affected by snow on nearby high ground. If conditions do deteriorate (looks unlikely at the moment) I'll post again on this thread.

    Serena Williams

    I just saw a replay of the Wimbledon final (it was on at the same time as the footy). Did anybody else notice that the nips on Serena's huge jugs went absolutely rock hard after she won the final point? They'd been invisible all through the match. I think she enjoyed that moment. The BBC treated...

    Watch tonight's England game on ITV HD on your Sky box

    Froze after a couple of minutes here, back on ITV1 now, it worked OK when I watched it in the past.

    Torquay tickets pay on day

    Torbay has got a mild 'micro-climate', palm trees and stuff grow there, it's always much warmer than the rest of Devon, the -6C (if it happerns) will be over Dartmoor a few miles away, there shouldn't be a problem in Torquay. By the way, today the Met Office revised its winter forecast for the...

    When did you start supporting the Albion?

    Other; 1976, post Clough, pre glory years. Great days.

    Just watched The Snowman on C4....

    I agree, watched it once years ago, even more boring than the Queen's speech IMO. Aled Jones' singing doesn't even feature. It's an unknown on this, Jones had a hit with a cover version a year or two later.

    Sports Personality of the Year?

    Cavendish by miles. Incredible results through 2009, the TDF was sensational. He's a superstar worldwide, sadly not that well known in the UK. If Button wins it it's a joke; Personality -fair enough, yes. Driving skills - mediocre, was lucky to be in the right car at the right time. Next...

    X factor - Should I cover my bet?

    Watch BBC Sports Personality of the Year instead (and vote for Mark Cavendish).

    Brezovan starts

    Anyone who doesn't trust the commentators only needs to ask any of the 607 away fans (or any of the 4500 home fans) what they thought of Brezovan's performance today, most of them will probably tell you he was the difference between the teams. OK, it was only one game, but he had a great debut.

    Exeter away 05/12/09

    Spot the ball! I took this crappy mobile phone pic of the goal, I can see Crofts and the keeper starting his dive, but I can't see the ball, must be lost in the haze of the lights, it hit the top near corner.
