Southampton sack their manager. The last one Puel got them to 8th place and a League Cup Final. They sacked the Frenchman because of his style of play !

An Arsenal fan last week actually cried on the radio saying he'd had enough of Wenger etc.I felt embarrassed just hearing him sobbing,I shouted at the radio " get a grip man." I thought if you cry over your football team what will you be like when something really bad happens in your life ? We...

I remember walking out of Highfield Road with my dad after we got thumped 6-0 to Everton. I was pissed off but my dad gave me a rollicking saying we lost to the better team, but we tried hard and our players gave it their all. I always thought my dad was a bit mad !

Could be because of too high expectations ? Fans should know by now only a handful of clubs will win trophies,with the odd exception occasionally. As a Cov City supporter of 50 plus years I've become hardened to it all now,take the Barnet game it was boring and sleep inducing,but I walked away...

Is the beautiful game going a bit nuts ? Its always been tribal and passionate you only had to be around in the 70's/80's to see for yourself. But now when I listen to radio phone ins and look on social media,and fans are angry at their club or the opposition, and hardly any one seems happy or...

All the bloke in the car with his daughter said to Carragher was the 2-1 scoreline,hardly aggressive wind up behaviour. Just as disgusting as his spitting is his one million a year Sky salary !

Just heard about Ken Dodd. A good innings though 90 years, and he had been ill recently. Saw him at the Walsgrave Club some years ago and he was brilliant had the audience in stitches. Old time comic but one of the best.

Great news. Stones at the Ricoh,Baker back playing,and Still Game new series. You watch we'll lose to Barnet now to wipe the smile off my face !

Strawberry Fields Forever was also said to have drug references in the song, but Lennon said it wasn't about drugs but the name of an orphanage he knew about in Liverpool. And Itchycoo Park by Small Faces also was said to be about an acid trip but was about Steve Marriots childhood memory of his...

It has been well quoted that it is about his son's painting and not drugs. But I Am A Walrus has to be drug influenced !

Golden Brown by The Stranglers.

Been reading an interesting article on Beatles records. I always thought that Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds was about LSD. But in fact it was inspired by John Lennon's son Julian who as a kid came home with a painting,and John asked him what it was about ? Julian replied " Its Lucy in the sky...

Has anyone watched the comedy called This Country ? Set in a rural village/town its good and I think its been on BBC 3 for a while. There is some good comedy about but you have to search for it.

Great comedy been a fan of it for a few years. I can even understand the Glasgow accent now !

We keep hearing that our justice system is the best in the world. But why when you read/hear about sentences given out that are weak and often bizarre ? If you steal money from a bank in a robbery you will get a hefty sentence, but if you molest a child or kill someone by dangerous driving you...

Holy Diver has to be one of the most played tracks on Planet Rock. And is often chosen by listeners when selecting a Rockblock.

Pork Chop Hill !

So called works of art that sell for silly money. In the paper today there's a Picasso painting that sold for £50 million. It is of a woman who was his young lover it says, it looks like something you'd paint if you'd just had a load of magic mushrooms ! I like art but it niggles me when someone...

Loved that shop. As I was a skinhead I got grandad vests in there, and boots, and other bits and bobs. I liked haversacks too and they sold them,in fact it was an Aladdin's Cave and if they never had something they'd try and get it for you.

Riddys Army and Navy store not far from Highfield Road. If a shop had legend status Riddys was it !
