    No accounting for taste :P It's a 2.5 pi, not a 2000, altogether rarer beast.

    Cars

    Aside from football, cars are my other big interest. My Grandad worked at Standard-Triumph, Dad has worked for just about every UK car maker there is or ever was so it's inevitable i would be a petrol head. Would be interested to see what motors you all drive, doesn't matter what it is, as...

    It was built at Dagenaham and the engine made in Wales so it doesn't do badly on that front. It's a lot newer than any of my previous motors though. My '81 Acclaim was the newest previously. That said, its not that much different, has no power steering, no computer, no electrickery of any kind...

    Sounds ideal! See you there! I’ll be the bloke crawling out of an old red Fiesta, spine broken, muttering “never again”

    It's a '94 poverty spec 1.1. Super clean and unmessed with which is the only reason i bought it. Not my usual sort of motor but it was local and the right price.

    It's a mark 3.5 so it came with the clear indicators as standard. Very hard to find an unmessed about with Fez now, especially in poverty spec like mine. I'm not against improving it but has to be done right. I have a couple of other "proper" classics that it has to vye for money and attention...

    Pros and cons of having kids - and not having them

    I think I did know that I wanted kids but I wasn't at all sure that I was ready for the first one. When he was born though all thoughts of being ready, not ready, doubts, whatever all faded away. It does totally change your life but speaking for myself it changed it for the better. I view having...

    This is the other reason i can't afford to go to that many games................ and likely a contributing factor to my impending fiery death on the ring road.

    Season ticket sales

    Increases in train fares have killed it somewhat for me. Not so long ago I used to be able to get an advanced ticket from Manchester to Cov for about £20 return. Now its more like £45 return typically. I still go to home games when we are in the vicinity visiting the inlaws but its too...

    League one news/transfers 2018/19

    Pompey have signed Tom Naylor from Burton on a free. Decent bit of business that i think, still only 26 and very versatile. Plymouth have signed Conor Grant after he was released by Everton

    Under the Radar

    I just think Robins (or should I say our recruitment team in general) is more used to working within his means and is more objective in seeing what the team needs. I always felt Mowbray's strategy was to bring in players from higher divisions on the assumption they would be better than what we...

    Gboly Ariyibi

    Has a fair amount of league one experience with Chesterfield and MK Dons but hasn't scored many goals wherever he has been, which i know isn't everything in a midfielder but he is supposedly a winger.

    Another Shrew ?

    Used to work with a Shrews fan, most pessimistic fan i've ever spoken to and given the level of pessimism about our own club that was quite some achievement!

    I can vouch for that. I am just a little older than your eldest Son and i've never been so skint. Made redundant from a much higher paid job in 2014 and i have struggled to get close to that wage since. Even now in my present job with the most responsibility and stress i've ever had, i am still...
