It was played on a trumpet last night, for some reason. I'm not a poppy perfectionist, but I did spot that on the telly when I was watching it. What's the difference between a trumpet and a bugle, you ask? About £1.50 when you weigh it in for scrap. 😁

Absolutely. What thrusting young New Yorker wouldn't want to swap "the city that never sleeps", for "God's (muggy) waiting room".

If he'd read the Lord of the Rings properly, he'd realise that the "Scouring of the Shire" was all about how a single, powerful, but evil man, having abjectly failed in his toadying support of an even more evil presence elsewhere, had taken it into his head to stir up a load of shit and make...

I've been talking to my Stoke supporting mate, and he says that he'd be very happy with a draw. His point was that they've been a bit lucky so far, they've been giving up chances but opponents haven't been taking advantage. (To be honest, I've felt the same about us more than once!) He thinks...

You're hitting the goalie, and they're going up the other end and getting the equaliser. Later, when you get out of the changing room showers, one of your new £100 trainers is suspiciously damp and warm. The other one is on the roof. 😁

Very frustrating. Thomas is having a good game at least. We can turn this around, no worries, Blades are going to start time wasting in the second half because Wilder can't resist a bit of cheating. That's going to give us the momentum back. At least that's what I'm hoping...

Erm... We're still top.

It's "luddite", and it's got nothing to do with the NHS. The "realists" ought to do some research before claiming their opinions as fact. Proportionally, the NHS has a lower proportion per capita cost than many of our European equivalents. Compared to the batshit US, well best not to go there...

Clearly, you have a long and prosperous career awaiting you in football media relations, should you wish, Pete. 😄

Leaving aside the reimbursement amount for a moment, can I just point out that having a ticket provides the right to attend, not the obligation to do so. If people decide to stay at home for the odd game, surely that's their business. Christ knows there's plenty of games I've been to in the...

I know it's only £945, but you cannot have the appearance of one rule for them and another for us. I think Reeves should go; if you're a government minister you have to be on top of this kind of thing, and if you're elected on precisely that promise, even more so. Starmer has an unerring...

Thank you Pete, this might distract people from my foolishly honest post regarding Wrexham. I think it's the SBT version of, "get out there and draw their fire!". 😄

I can't help it BSB, I haven't got the energy to genuinely hate opposition teams and players these days. I have to fake it on match days in case anyone notices. I'm blaming Wasps and Coventry City Council for completely draining my reservoir of ire. Perhaps I'll have to start watching GB News...

Ah, that perhaps explains it. That's so sodding ubiquitous in the game nowadays that I think I've almost stopped noticing. I'm glad the refs don't seem to be falling for it quite as much either...

I must confess that I've got a bit of a soft spot for Wrexham, I suppose from watching the TV series. That said though, I also want us to stuff them out of sight just because it feels like we owe them one (and because it's such good fun too!). Nothing personal, just football. 😁

I was in the family zone, and the young lad behind me was giving him loads! Way over the top in my opinion, but then the kid was happily effing and jeffing all game without any input from his responsible adult. First time I've been in there, and everyone else seemed on their best behaviour...

Just a correction of an obvious error. There was no two-tier justice here, the man in question received the maximum sentence that can be given at a magistrates court. The release was also an obvious error. One of 262 in a year. So the idea that this bloke has been treated leniently is a...

You know that we've come a long way when we're unhappy with a 3-1 win. Rushworth was top drawer except for a single mistake, and BTA was everywhere, again. Saka took some credit too, his physical bravery is awesome, never backs out. Everyone one else looked a little off it, especially in...

Usual Trump bullshit for his thicko fanboys to suck up. Reagan was quite clearly and obviously against tariffs. There's no misrepresentation of his position by Canada, it's just a fat orange twat making stuff up and picking fights to stay on top of the news cycle. The full Reagan speech here...
