    Ermm, you never heard of on street parking? Salt Lane car park is still there behind the banks and has been extended, so not too small at all and you can park on street right by the council house, unless a 30-45 second walk is an inconvenience to you of course. ;) Lots of on street parking...

    Obviously betting on the wrong horses!

    Game of thrones ( reprise)

    Talking of blue, there's hardly been any sex in this series at all has there. Too much battle action and story to be told I think.

    Transfer Rumour #CARLBAKERDAY

    I'm sure if I had a bet on 30 horses 2 or 3 would come through for me.

    Yes, agree. If you try and do a sliding tackle with your foot down you are more likely to injury yourself with your studs getting stuck in the turf. I think that Cahill one should have been a yellow. He went to tackle fairly, but overstretched and his studs caught the player. No malicious...

    He was soon released from hospital though. That's hopefully a good sign.

    Rooney Retires from International Football

    You can't compare the likes of Greaves with Rooney. It was different back then and so many of the smaller teams were just cannon fodder. It's a lot more equal footing these days. Back then we were often scoring 4 goals against the minnows. The minnows have very much upped their game since the...

    Yep. Used to be no football, only rugby. I see Wasps are always there. :(

    Time wasting

    But I don't think it would, Pete, for the very simple fact that players would see they are not getting away with it. We all scratch our heads with refs sometimes thinking '5 minutes added on? What the hell!' and then the flip, 'Only 5 minutes added on, you're having a laugh ref.' It's not at...

    Have to say, I draw the line at a dog bowl. Conjures up so many images in my sub conscious and turns my stomach just a little just thinking about it, even though I know it has never been used for a dog (well you would hope not anyway).

    Going off on a slight tangent, I also hate this unwritten 'it's only one foul ref, first one, so don't book me' rule. Irks me greatly. Case in point last night in the Liverpool match. Firminio I think it was. Weaved his way through the Hoffenheim defence, so their big centre back stepped up and...

    Time wasting

    Yeah, that's what I am talking about. Last 4 or 5 games or something where a point would be great. Also, a bottom table team away at a table topping team, with little chance of bagging all 3 points.

    Yep. Ex pats used to yearn for them. My brother lived in the States for about 12 years.

    Time wasting

    Teams do time waste though at 0-0 or 1-1 if a draw is vital to their needs, especially down the wrong end of the table.

    Well, yes, but then it could be argued that he has to dismiss it in order to not give anything away and try and put people off the scent. ;) After all, they denied Jon Snow was coming back from the dead when it was noticed he was back on set following his demise didn't they.

    There was a gin festival on last week at Fargo. They have had others too. Just don't get it at all, cos to me it's a revolving drink.

    Yes. Some establishments 'don't do beans.'
