    Dujon Sterling

    If twitter is to be believed a lot of Chelsea fans feel he should be starting for them.

    Couldn't care less. There's our club and then there is everybody else.

    People That Dislike Football

    Exactly this. My Grandad lived and breathed cars and bikes so my Dad did too and still does. I share his love of cars but i've never been quite so enthusiastic about motorsport as he is. I like going to watch touring car with him and he took me to the Monaco GP when i was a kid which was...

    The holiday thread I’ve

    Going nowhere near a plane while my daughter is in her present destructive phase, she'd be gnawing on the wires within seconds. Sticking to UK based hols until next year at the earliest

    Who should be moved on?

    Reid being off the bill would free up substantial funds i would have thought but there again i don't imagine Brown or Westbrook came here for peanuts. Makes no sense to let Stokes go, if someone came in for him and offered a fee and he wanted to go then thats different but releasing him would...

    People That Dislike Football

    My Dad's not a football fan, he never has been. He will watch any form of motorsport though, literally anything. I don't think he hates it as such, just doesn't have an interest. Cars are his passion in general so consequently motor racing is his sport of choice as well.

    Morgan Williams

    Don't doubt there was/is a deal but things fall through sometimes. Evidently something has gone on.

    Morgan Williams

    Lot of assumptions being made here. We don't know that the figure was/is actually £100k. We don't know who made offers to him, could be we were one of several clubs and he picked us. We are fairly local to him after all. We also dont know, for certain, that he is even signing for us. it may yet...

    Pet insurance

    Insurance premiums are dependant on so many different, personal factors that i don't think you can say one firm is more expensive than another in general terms. My Wife had the dog before we met and he initially went on her parents farm policy with the NFU. When she moved in with me we looked...

    Geez, some parents!!

    I didn't witness it but apparently the recent Dad's race at the School where I'm a Governor resulted in 3 ambulances!

    Geez, some parents!!

    Like any normal person would. Some degree of competition helps us to develop and achieve. Being so competitive that winning becomes the be all and end all just sucks the joy out of everything.

    Fancy Bumping Into You !

    Bumped in to Susan George at a classic car show a few years ago, she stopped to talk to me about my motor and was a very nice lady by all accounts. On they way back from another show i was filling up with petrol when Sue Barker pulled in next to me in a Mercedes the size of your average yacht...

    Fancy Bumping Into You !

    My experience as well. He doesn't live too far away from me and he will turn up to the opening of an envelope these days so always see him about. I don't have anything nice to say about him to be honest.

    Pet insurance

    We are now without insurance for our dog as they Insurer (NFU) moved him on to a geriatric policy at a pricy £45 a month and when we read the new terms, it basically only covered him if he got injured through being run over or attacked, nothing else was covered anymore. Impossible to get...

    Custody Law

    If you are a member of a trade union you can often get free or heavily discounted family law advice. If you aren't a member yet it might be worth joining up. Some unions will let you access that advice from day one but most demand a minimum membership period before you can (for obvious reasons)...

    Bouwe Bosma - Confirmed Signing

    If leaking the news was going to scupper the deal then the chain of leaks above you would/will already have scuppered it.

    Things that annoy you

    In 2007, one of Blairs last acts. Local Government schemes became career average before that and the NHS scheme not too long after. Very few people left in a final salary scheme. I've got a few years in the final salary scheme but that is effectively now frozen and the rest of the pot is based...
