    This is next seasons kit (probably)

    How many more times? We had all sky blue long before Manchester City did and for most of their time they have had white shorts with pale blue shirts. They were never called the Sky Blues like we have been for over 50 years now.

    All betting ads, trying to sucker people in to a damaging addiction by pretending it is cool and manly.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Brexit: How long will it be before, "Let's just call the whole thing off," will no longer be shouted down but will become mainstream? I give it six months. Whatever your viewpoint should we stick to a democratic referendum result forever, whatever the consequences, out of some terribly British...

    Things That Bore You ?

    Talent shows. Most of you are not very talented and your journey is a bore fest. Made a bit of sense when they were in your local club in the days before TV and internet but if I want to hear good music, dance, comedy etc why would I waste time watching Wayne from Wigan, Chelsea from Chigwell...

    General Election

    I held my nose and voted Labour. The first time I have ever struggled. I give Corbyn credit for running a fine campaign and energising young people but I see him as a transitional figure who has brought Labour's mojo back. A new leader will have to emerge in due course to unite all sections of...

    General Election

    I have noticed but he lacks credibility as he is perceived as a friend of terrorists and an opponent of anti-terror legislation. Cooper has no such baggage.

    General Election

    Such a shame that Yvette Cooper is not the Labour leader. She would run rings around May in the current climate.

    YOU DECIDE

    Two goalscorers. One could be a winger, one central or in the hole. Don't care as long as both are prolific.

    Bye bye Saturday

    Makes me glad I have no plans to renew my season ticket. As I travel 40 miles I am not interested in negotiating Friday rush hour traffic or midweek evening matches in Winter. I want Saturday at 3pm or will pick and choose.

    Crying out for a beast to lead the line who is a genuine goalscorer. Without that promotion is beyond us.

    General Election

    There is no doubt that TM is using the rhetoric of the centre ground. The words are those of Blue Labour and a few of the policies are straight out of Brown's and MIliband's manifestos. However, I don't think that is really why she will win big. She will win big because of Brexit, pure and...
