Exactly right Otis, she was very good at maths but couldn't even begin to get her head around languages. At the time I put it down to lack of effort on her part. Have since heard that one very prominent school in Coventry does not even rocognise it as a condition!!

My daughter was dignosed with dyslexia not long after she started University. It was spotted by one of her mates who had a bit of knowledge about the subject who suggested she get tested. Turned out it was quite profound, and the report that went with the diagnosis said that over the years she...

How ever obscene having KD on the bench is, it has proved two things. Firstly that KD is so out of touch and deludud that he really should not be allowed anywhere near a football club, and secondly that Thorn has very little or no back bone. If he had he would have told KD to fuck off!!!!!

I seem to remeber Graham Souness getting sent off when he was playing for Spurs reserves against Coventry reserves in the reserve team Cup Final at Highfield Road. It was about the fifth time he kicked Dennis Mortimer in the air before he got sent off!! A lot of older Liverpool fans reckon...

I think she was guilty, but as soon as the might of the U.S. legal teams started fighting her case always thought the Italians would buckle and acquit her. Think the rules are different when its a U.S. citizen.

There are two other good scenes in Goodfellas. When the Harry Hill marches across the street and pistol whips the the cocky bastard who tried it on with his misses is superb!!! Never get tired of seeing it. The other scene is great but more for its technical dimension. Its the scene where Harry...

Agree about the Usual Suspects. The final scene as he gets into the Jag and is driven away is pure class!!!! Won't say any more than that but every time I watch that film I see something I didn't see before. Brilliant!!

Always go to the Marina at the bottom of St James' Lane. Never had a bad portion of fish and chips from there, always a queue therefore always freshly fried chips!!! The worst fish and chips I have ever eaten was from Gabriels in Earlsdon High Street. Disgusting!!!

Going back a bit but................Larry Lloyd

I don't trust them at all. They are a hedge fund, need I say more? That said I cannot think of the last set of owners I did trust. Can anyone else?

It's about time something like this happened. At last the authorities have grown some balls and decided that this is enough. These people have no respect for anyone except their own kind. They justify their appauling behaviour by hiding behind 'human rights' and some mythical traveller/gypsy...

Don't think the council will ever trust SISU with any part of the Arena. Everyone but SISU believes that the fans have been lied to, frequently, over a long period of time. Thats not a good track record to have if you want to do business with a council who are answerable to the local population...

Tommy Docherty once described a player as being "deceptively slow". :D

Remember JB's when it was the White Horse many years ago. Used to serve up a superb pint of Ansells bitter. Went in there about 3 months ago one Saturday afternon. What a fucking eye opener!!!!! Nuneaton is a lot better than people give it credit for. Agree about the Pen & Wig being renamed...

Eric McManus!!!!!!! I remember him well. As a kid I used to get taken to the reserve team games when he was Glaziers understudy. Didn't he play in the European game where we got a tanking because Glazier was ill?

Would just like to say how much I appreciate the way olderskyblue breaks all this bullshit down and gets to the heart of the matter. Thankyou sir!!! Another point that occurs to me is that if we ever manage to purchase half or all of the stadium, no doubt we would require a loan of some sort...

I heard rumours coming out of the Liverpool training ground (Mellwood?) that his career was at best in the balance, and at worst over. Before the last world Cup there was a very emminent hip surgeon who hinted that there was a very high profile England player about to possibly undergoe a new...

Bobby Gould for me. Peter Reid was piss poor and only took the job to get back into football. Didn't give a shit about CCFC. Terry Butcher took us to the cleaners when he was sacked with his payoff.
