Nobody should be above criticism, no matter how good their intentions may be or how little their critics are doing in comparison. It's the same kind of thing that will see someone be appalled 'fellow fans' are being abused about two seconds before launching into a 'usual suspects' tirade.

I played the wall game as well but couldn't remember the name of it for the life of me, I think the film Wall-E threw me off the scent. Played on a wall that was only 2ft tall but had a sloping top so if you were accurate enough you could really be nasty to whoever had to follow you.

Just played doubles as only half the players turned up for indoors. Jesus, it's tiring.

'Unless someone knows different' is always a good start to a proclamation.

Hope you're sat down, there's a lot of contrasting information coming your way... Basically one player is goalkeeper, 2 or more play against him and can only score via heads/volleys. The rules vary wildly, but we'd play first to five goals wins - goalkeeper gets a 'goal' for every clean catch...

It's possible he's just doing this job during the summer while out of season, he's at that age where he'd been floating between short-term contracts with clubs assuming he's still playing.

Hey now! Without the one touch above the waist rule, James Rodriguez would never have scored that wonder goal. (I think it's a safe assumption he played my rules down in Colombia, the legendary tales of Stoke Heath heads and vols did travel continents after all)

Setting yourself up for volleys was a no-no in our rulebook. We allowed one touch above the waist before a shot on goal, but the pass had to come from someone else. As soon as the keeper was one goal away from winning, everyone would shy away from crosses and just flick it up for other people to...

We went 'rush keeper' and 'world cup singles/doubles'. The heads and volleys rules seemed to differ from street to street, you could tell an exotic outsider when they'd never heard of a one-handed catch rule.

If he's kicked the habit and is now working hard to provide for his family in spite of needless press intrusion, that seems pretty decent.

You've got to know when to quit. When we got three jackpot repeaters on Sir-Win-A-Lot in the Walsgrave, a lot of that sweet £45 went on chasing the high. Good week though!

Blackpool had to cancel their pre-season tour when they realised they didn't have enough players to bother. The chairman (who I'd argue is hated more than our lot) claims he's not worried though, as it allows the new manager the chance to build his own team rather than inherit a load of guff he...

It's this part that gets me: Then you skip past the photos and see this: A man honestly and sensibly answering questions he doesn't even need to. What a BLAST! Can you feel the rage in every word?

Exactly. The sneering tone of that article is horrible.

Used to be rad dudes, but now they're downers man.

He really had to do it as he gets plagued with messages and questions even when talking about TV or something unrelated to Cov. And that's just the public messaging. Once my hip-hop career takes off I'm cutting off all contact with Joe Public.

I remember being excited we were signing Eddie Johnson until I found it wasn't the US national team forward. In hindsight both were dogshit anyway.

It's depressing to hear that these players I still see in my mind as youth prospects are in their 30s. Leon Osman should only be about 23 by now.

I'd play a free one, because my general coaching tactic of 'forget you're in a Fantasy League by November' generally isn't the most lucrative.
