I'm hyperventilating!

He had both knees replaced and hips and had arthritis too. In a wheelchair also at times I read in an article. Those hard physical players suffered badly when their careers ended. And financially weren't looked after like these days, just like those who served in the armed services in a way...

He kicked a ball I read at Wembley into the net, and for that he had his benefit stopped. I think I will do a piece on his career, as he was a Liverpool great, but will include his rascist views. It may be a generation thing but still comes across as outdated and wrong. My late father was a bit...

Blimey never knew that. That is prehistoric attitude and shocking. Was going to write an article on Smith for Late Tackle magazine who I write for, but not sure now seeing he was like that. But I could include his rascist views ?

Is that about our football club ?

In the paper today there was an article on The Specials. Horace Panter was talking about their 40th anniversary and their upcoming tour. He also mentioned that he still lives in Coventry, and called it " the European city of low self - esteem." He added that is what keeps his feet on the...

Toughest player ever ? We had our own Iron Man in George Curtis, but Tommy Smith was hard as nails.

The bloke because he's a surgeon came across as an arrogant I'm better than you type. When he said " I want to go home " I laughed, he thought he was back at school. The policewoman interviewing him really disliked him, and me too. Cocky twat !

Fair play to the lad he had a good go back.Last night here in Bell Green outside my flat a bloke was beating another lad up, then from nowhere another bloke came running up waving a machete! I know I shouldn't laugh, but the guy who was beating up the other bloke saw him and legged it like Usain...

Bit off thread. When we beat Wolves 3-1 we got our record attendance 51,000. Jimmy Hill called it the Midlands Match Of The Century, and I'm sure it was rumoured we could have played the match at Villa Park as So many fans wanted to watch the game. It wouldn't have been the same playing it at...

Charity shop bargain : Greenday and Bullet In A Bible. Live CD and DVD. Great band live.

The best of : The Who live. Love their early stuff, still one of the best rock bands ever.

There was a programme on tonight called Code Blue : Murder. About a bloke who murdered his girlfriend of just 6 weeks and went on the run. They caught him and he got found guilty, and he got sentenced. In the interview he said he was from Coventry. He stabbed her 30 odd times and was a nasty...

There used to be 2 or 3 Crown Court judges in the 70's/80's Who when you heard were on duty the day you were in court , you knew if you were up for violence/fighting, you were going to prison. One was called Judge Griffiths, the other Harrison- Hall, they both were hard and scary. But looking...

Done.

Our justice system has always been iffy. When I got into trouble years ago the courts really hammered you if you were up for violence, most of the time you got sent down. That pub brawl I got a broken nose, but because I had a record and I whacked the bloke back it was me that got the 2 years...

Barcelona got the draw in the last few seconds of the game. 2 great goals by Messi and Suarez got them level after trailing 4- 2. Don't usually like watching La Liga but this was a cracker.

This no comment thing. Years ago if you said nothing in a police interview, that meant you were guilty. This is a fairly new concept I think ? Myself I just went guilty straight away as I was ! What's the point of stretching it out, but I was of the mindset if you can't do the time, don't do the...

I once got 2 years for a pub brawl. My solicitor said I'd get probation !

The one tonight was about a big time Scouser drug dealer. Guilty as Hell but gave it the no comment all the time. Ended up with a soft sentence. The bloke was 54 but a copper who was ironically his cousin said he'll always be at it.
