    Today is very special

    I’m 28. Just about recall a couple of PL games, the first being a 1-1 draw with Spurs in 1998 and the second Chelsea in 2000 when we drew 2-2 and Tore Andre Flo scored both for Chelsea. Not really known anything but disappointment.

    David Icke Again

    They do say you have to be mad to be a keeper. To be fair, I have listened to some of his stuff. It’s more out of intrigue as to where it comes from.

    Sunday league tales

    One from kids football (well, u16 so crossover period) I’d been getting a bit tubby from having a few beers each weekend. Played against Bedworth and their right winger was a mate I went to school with (I played left back). He was always quick, and obviously seeing I was carrying a few pounds he...

    Roll call for Notts County away Saturday at 3pm

    Can’t wait for a pre-match pint in the kitchen.

    I’d always class a threesome as essential (providing it’s not me and another bloke).

    Wouldn’t surprise me if lockdown was a day or so away now. The other half saw military personnel walking round Bulkington yesterday afternoon, having never seen it happen in the 24 years she’s lived there. Granted there’s a barracks down the road but just seems a little coincidental. Brace...

    Coronavirus

    This feels like the attitude my office is taking. Concerns me a bit - considering the job I do it isn’t easy to facilitate working from home but it would be achievable. I haven’t come down with any symptoms yet and I’m not really looking to take time off, but there’s basically no communication...

    The Cheltenham 2020 thread

    Annoyingly, I didn’t back any of the winners yesterday even though I picked out Min and Concertista. Allmankind for me in the first, Solo has had one run over hurdles and is an unknown quantity whereas Allmankind won the trial of this race a few months back so is proven over course & distance...

    Not a great day yesterday from a betting perspective but some cracking races. Braced for more of the same again today. Quite fancy Faugheen in the first but feel it may be sentimental rather than rational. Gone for the mare Annie Mc on the money back offer with SkyBet. Mares seem to be having a...

    Be interesting to know if the club have business interruption insurance to cover things such as this. I’d hope so but you’d hardly envisage something like this happening. Happy for the club to keep the ST money, it’s out of their hands at the end of the day and will likely need propping up. May...

    Chacun Pour Soi now a non runner. See how the first 2 get on and may go big on a Defi & Tiger Roll double.

    I would imagine Envoi Allen wins the opener but, as stated above, the price is far too short to be bothering with for a novice. Likely to have money on The Big Breakaway with that money-back offer on the table. Minella Indo has festival form which is always a plus so takes my bet for the RSA...

    Not done badly today, £40 up. Steered clear of Benie, odds were far too short for the low stakes I’m playing with this year. Didn’t bother with that race at all. Ended up having a £5e/w bet on Darver Star, not often I back e/w especially since they decreased the odds to 1/5, but was decent value...

    An interesting note is that Gordon Elliott’s stable seem horrendously out of form coming into this. See how Abacadabras goes in the first and may be worth using that as a marker for the week.

    Hope you’re backing it on SkyBet - refunded up to £10 if it loses. Not as up to speed as I used to be with the horses so won’t be betting as much as usual. Really intrigued by some of the races today. 1.30 - Shishkin 2.10 - Notebook 4.10 - Benie Des Dieux If I get a winner in the first two...

    Pre-planning....

    As someone mentioned previously, it may be worth buying a Wimbledon ticket for another of their home games just so you have a previous purchase history and can go in the home end on the last day. Though I imagine if too many do that for the same game it’d be rather hilarious.
