    29th April 1967 City v Wolves

    Houch's old photos got me thinking. Now amongst all those pics is one of the open top bus ride around the city centre after we won the league in 1967. On 29th April was obviously that really famous game between City and Wolves at the top of the table, when 51,000+ were at HR. City won 3-1 and...

    I know this sounds a bit paranoid/conspiratorial

    But what do people think of these 2 reviews of this Aldi manufactured tie in product? Sound suspiciously dodgy to me and quite possibly dare I say, self penned. Basically here I have been looking at a cheap tablet for my daughter and Aldi have one on sale this Thursday 7th August for just...

    England at sports

    We're not bad at all in reality are we. I know it's only the Commonwealth Games going on at the moment, but we have won 170 medals in total and when you stop and think about things in general, we are right up there in many, many sports upon the world stage aren't we. Cycling Golf Table Tennis...

    The Killing

    Anyone else a fan? Talking about the US version here, rather than the original. New series just released today, exclusive to Netflix. I know it's had a bit of criticism from a few people for being slighly slow, but for me I just see it as brooding and atmospheric. It seems to have high ratings...

    Faith schools

    Ban them? I have never been keen on them anyway to be honest, but stuff that's been in the news lately and the kind of things revealed tonight on C4's Dispatches is most worrying. Accusations of Christmas not being celebrated, Muslim boys being told that a wife must always consent to sex...

    Okay, who would you say is the worst at the moment?

    Video evidence

    Would love to see it used during a game for certain things. Good example tonight. French player elbows Ecuador player in the face, not spotted. See no reason why he couldn't have been sent off at half time. Anyone else concur?

    Italy v England here in Bedford

    Now, I know this might prove to be contentious, but just wondered what everyone else thought about what went on here in Bedford last Tuesday after the Italy v England game. Bedford has at least 20% of the population being either Italian or of Italian descent, the largest contingent pro rata in...

    Italy v Uruguay

    Any preference on who you'd want to win and progress through? Italy for me. Just to wipe the smug smile of Suarez's face for starters. Italy only need a draw so should progress, but I agree with what Alan Hansen when Suarez had his bit of an after game rant at the English. No-one is saying...
