Been announced that the classic hit by Queen hit 1.6 billion streams, making it the most popular song of all time. It is a great track without doubt, and has stood the test of time seeing it came out in 1975. It also is the most listened to Rock track according to Universal Music Group. So what...

You have to say Tyson Fury gave some performance verses Wilder in the ring, and showed fighting spirit. It got me thinking that all of us in our lives have at sometime been written off, but have shown our doubters wrong. Myself I was down as a bloke set for a life in and out of prison, trying...

Who's going to win this fight ? I'm going for Wilder,but if Fury wins I'll apologize in low rating him. Could be a long scrap !

Two music legends are doing a one off gig in July at Hyde Park, both Dylan and Young will be together on stage. Should be a cracker as what a back catalogue they both have. Who other 2 acts would you like to see appear together, both still alive of course ! Could be a band ? I'd go for bands ...

Has anybody gone and had a beer at half time and then forgot where your seat was in the ground ? I had a few pints on Friday night before the match, and another at the break. Just a steady drink not over the top, but for some reason I ended up in a different row, and sat there for about ten...

Been announced that Benn and Eubank are going to fight each other in the ring. It is serious and not a gimmick, as both have kept fit and in good shape. They need the boxing authority to sanction it first, but if not they will get it on somehow. Can't see it happening myself, but I'm intrigued...

Been forecasted a cold blast on the way and a harsh winter. I actually like cold weather even though I lose days of work. As a kid I was out in the snow playing football etc, and as an adult like walking in icy conditions and getting outside when possible. But many hate winter, and hibernate. So...

I've had an article published in Late Tackle football magazine, on my fifty years following the Sky Blues. I broke it down in sections : 60's 70s 80's 90's and the present. I wrote about winning promotion verses Wolves,our Cup Final victory, a violent incident at Stoke City, plus players and...

Had to go to the hospital on Friday for an abdominal aortic aneurysm screening. As I'm 64 it's a free test so thought I may as well have it done. I was a bit nervous as I heard it is a serious test, as if there is any problem it shows up on the screen, and they advice you have an operation if...

A customer of mine knows I'm a Cov fan and a collector of football memorabilia, and last week asked me would I want her late brothers programme collection ? Of course I replied yes. She came back with about 150 ! From early sixties up to the 90's, and in there are also a few Cup Final ones,and...

Karl Pilkington has got a new sit-com out but I read an interview he gave the other day. He said and he was serious, that he was thinking of doing a few days a week window cleaning with his mate, as he was undecided about carrying on with TV etc. As I'm a window cleaner I'd love to have him help...

A customer of mine who takes her 2 young kids to games at the Ricoh asked me if there's going to be trouble on Saturday,as she's heard there expecting some ? All I could say back was if there is it will be away from the stadium, and not to worry about her and her kids safety. She has obviously...

As I'm a window cleaner I get to know many of my customers well, and its not just at Christmas I get a tip/present for doing a job. This week a customer knowing I'm a football fan gave me a Barcelona top with Messi's name on the back, he got it he said from a stall in Benidorm. Obviously a...

Had to go to the doctors yesterday for my yearly M.O.T. and results of a recent blood test. Got told all is fine and he told me for 64 I'm in good nick. My doctor said its good that I'm still working outdoors, and my hobby/passion for football writing keeps my mind active. Bloody hell he was...

Has anybody been watching this programme ? Where 4 well known celebs are locked in a small trailer room for 5 days, see how they cope on their own etc. They don't know the time, in other words cut off from technology, and with just basic stuff like a toilet,and a bed. Eddie Hall is in there,the...

I see Boris Johnson is in trouble again for saying something "outrageous" and I've just listened to Chris Sutton on the radio upsetting Cardiff fans, by saying their team is going down etc. I find it amusing and entertaining, and tongue in cheek banter,but many people get irate and angry. I...

Bono. Bonnie Raitt. Robert Plant. Neil Young. Blondie. Kate Bush.Bob Dylan. John Lennon just missed out !

Phone in this morning on the radio about losing a dog and how upset people get etc. Some were sobbing and many said theyve never gotten over losing their dog, even years later. When I was with my missus we had 2 dogs, I felt really low after they both died, and missed them around the house. One...

They've just held the World Air Guitar competition in Finland, its an annual award. A woman won it and it attracted a lot of entrants from around the world. When I worked on the buildings years ago on sites there would always be a radio on, and most of us couldn't resist picking up a spade or...
