    Death List 2025

    I know we've all got to go sometime and without looking at his age I know he recorded a great innings but it's still a little sad when somebody associated to a sport or pastime that you enjoy has to leave. He managed to be a character without ever trying. Courtesy largely of just being an...

    Fake shirts

    Reminds me of a joke I was the 'subject' of a few years ago (your team of detriment/mirth can be inserted) Bloke from Coventry was on holiday in Thailand recently and amongst the usual big clubs shirts of Liverpool, Man U, Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal etc that the locals were wearing he was...

    As opposed to 1st, 1st, 1st, 2nd, 1st etc as would have been the norm a few seasons earlier - just highlighting Liverpool not being at their most potent rather than running us down. Arsenal away is my personal gripe - seen us draw there a few times but never seen us win. (Missed both of those...

    Big (huge) club no doubt but they had some poor teams as the '90's wore on even with the individuals like Fowler and Owen.

    Death List 2025

    I think it was only last year he announced he had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. As for inspiration for AP that’s just my opinion. Not sure if Coogan has ever cited him.

    Brummie's are Yow Yows. I have no idea how Yam Yam has mistakenly been used to describe them over the last couple of decades. Get with the program, kids.

    Women's Rugby World Cup 2025

    Not the game (so far) many of us would probably have predicted. France playing like there's a final up for grabs. something I have noticed in this competition - An inordinate amount of forward passing.

    Women's Rugby World Cup 2025

    What is it about Canada and rugby? I know they and USA have long been there in previous WC tournaments - Both Men's and Women's but I also recall a few years ago a Canadian men's team competing at either C'ship or Lg 1 level over here.
