    Eurovision Song Contest

    We also have a handful of users who persistently hijack a significant proportion of perfectly congenial threads (footy-related and not) by politicising them or indulging in personal mud-slinging and general abuse. THEY should be banned!

    Eurovision Song Contest

    Russia have not been allowed to compete since they attacked Ukraine, yet the EBU appear able to justify NOT doing the same in banning Israel. I wouldn't have thought Eurovision would be the natural habitat for gammons' viewing pleasure, but SOMEONE was voting for Israel. It sure wasn't for the...

    Things that annoy you

    Did he actually say "Up the franchise"?? Well, Luca, you can take your franchise and shove it up your Arsenal! What a tit!

    Things that annoy you

    The Heads of the Valleys road (A465) is a disaster zone from start to finish. Even the bit they finished before the EU money dried up has a 50 limit on a perfectly good, virtually empty, two-lane dual carriageway, for some bizarre reason (at least it isn't in the Welsh blanket 20 zone). And the...

    Death List 2024

    Could have sworn as a youngster that he was South African, which confused me how he had played in the Ryder Cup. But you live and learn - Dutch father hence the name, but English through and through. Six Ryder Cups! Died the day before his 76th birthday.

    According to Wikipedia and Companies House (a bit more valid) he is listed as Chairman.

    Concerned now

    I may be missing something, or i may not understand the game (having watched it my entire life), but i do not understand the Sheaf hero-worship. From what I have seen of him (and admittedly that isn't every week) he is a bang-average Championship midfielder who is too lightweight, can't win a...

    Why would he want to go anywhere near any organisation with Gary Hoffman involved???

    NEW SPONSOR

    Cooperative Bank? They are owned by CBS now! I've never really understood why the Jag have never got involved with sponsoring City. They are inextricably linked with Coventry throughout their history. I suppose Land Rover sponsor a lot of the egg-chasing, but i don't think Jaguar have ever...

    Robins to United?

    Excellent! They have such a good record with Chelsea rejects!

    It's the favourite one in my collection! ;) Alternate it at matches with the 2Tone one from 19-20, which i think is the cleverest and most poignant design i have ever seen.

    Flashback to the 97/98 Subaru light & dark blue stripes, maybe? Dion, Hucks, Whelan, Soltvedt, Telfer, etc. Great team, that!

    Robins to United?

    Look what happened after Fergie left. Everyone was clamouring for Moyes, since he had managed to save Everton from relegation without a sugar-sheikh owner and limited budget ("Oh won't he be brilliant with pots of money?"). Well, no, he wasn't. He was shit, and they are frankly still trying to...

    New number one needed

    I think Aled Williams has some questions to answer. Earlier this season, i thought Collins took much better control of the box than Wilson,, claiming crosses, etc, and i sensed that the back four (when we played in that system) had more confidence in him. Wilson was probably a better...

    New number one needed

    But then they would have had a defence capable of making sure we didn't get back into it
