I used to try this regularly, until my dad told me I'd go blind. I asked if I could just do it until I needed glasses.

Yeah, our place is a bit like that. Fair enough if it was built in Tudor times I guess, but ours was knocked out in 1974! I'm assuming the brickies used their spirit levels as cricket bats.

Absolutely. Isn't it strange, I must have gone past there literally thousands of times, but I'd never really noticed the beauty of the building perched on the shop/takeaway/pub. Just goes to show that you never really appreciate what's on your doorstep...

I'd love to nip out for a pint, but I'm worried that if I stand too close to HH I'll get pregnant. :)

Any way you stack it, that has to be classed as assault - he doesn't even have the pretence of trying to play the ball, it's about 30 yards away! I suspect the police will get involved at some point...

Yep, fwiw mate I don't really bother with Tipsters. The best ones, imho, probably get paid by the papers for it. Over a year, there usually isn't one of them who turns a profit... http://www.besttipping.com/betdaqtipcheck/?action=allcompare&time=360&amount=10

Don't think they can do it, Nick. Too dangerous. As I understand it these days, you're not even allowed to continue a pursuit if the rider becomes too erratic and a possible danger to himself. Can't see why they can't take their registrations and follow it up later though. Give the house a...

I've spent quite a bit of time trading on betfair, mostly on the immediate pre-race horse markets using a tool called Bet Angel. That's got some built in tools for creating bots using your own strategies and tied into Excel, but I've never entirely trusted them because it can expose you to a...

Absolutely SBT. They aren't bikers, they're better thought of as knobs on mopeds. In a year or two's time they'll be knobs in Corsas, and they are probably already also knobs on buses. The common denominator isn't their mode of transport. :) In fairness, when I was their age and riding my...

Don't be daft Nick, the owners are clearly taunting us. Even on the official site they are calling us 'mugs' (http://ccfc.clubstore.co.uk/mugs).

I'm glad it's not just me. SISU are sending me messages direct through the fillings in my teeth. "Burn it down!, Burn it down!", they say. ... must.... resist....

Nope - the voice of self-interest. Just imagine how much more you could get make out of Wasps if you got pay-per-click on your PR pieces for them here. You should drop them a line, maybe you could offer them naming rights for your signature line.

Yep, that's just about how I'd read it too. If I had one concern, it would be that I think that I don't see any really big areas of (edit) future growth on the pitch or in terms of attendance - in essence I think we're close to peak Wasps in that sense. They're pretty shrewd off the pitch in...

You're very welcome. In truth BBR, I can't even imagine what it must be like to go through - it must be desparate for the people directly involved, and it's obviously been hard on you too. Regardless of all of the politics and opinions about the team and the owners, and no matter how ticked...

Quite seriously BBR, that sounds a bit like PTSD to me. If it continues and it's intrusive I'd genuinely recommend talking to someone about it rather than trying to live with it - there are straightforward things that can help here. Think of it like you would a sports injury - if it's still...

It's going to take more than just a vicar to sort this mess out - in fact even the Archbishop couldn't handle it. It's time to appeal to a higher power...

It's very nice, but the pitch is a bit bobbly. Probably better for rugby. :)

Bournemouth have got, what, 11,500? They're in the prem. Straight question, not a trap, why do we need a 25,000 seater stadium?

Bugger. I'm the only one here who has no idea who Derek Acorah is, right? I've heard of Brian Blessed though.
