    Notts. County tickets

    Will be coming over from Spain next weekend with my son and would like to get hold of tickets for the game. Will buy them online from the club site but does anyone know if they can pe posted to my father´s address in Coventry or would I need to go and collect them from somewhere, and if so where...

    PlayStation Plus (Feb 2014)

    My son has the ps3 and he is debating whether or not to buy the ps4. I guess then that he is probably right to wait and see how things develope. Seems a tad unjust that someone who is loyal to the ps should possibly have to replace all their games.

    Moussa's Wonder Strike

    All three goals against Arsenal when we beat them 3 v 2 at Highfield Rd. on the 26 th. December 1999.....especially Robbie Keane´s effort when it almost appeared that he had a telescopìc leg. Fantastic memories

    Memories of Playing footie in the streets.

    Indeed I did along with my elder brother John. I was born in 1957, and John in ´54 so we must have coincided. I must have been there until ´67/´68. Don´t remeber too much about it except that I was in "West" house and in the earlier days the football teacher was a certain Miss Perrins, an...

    Memories of Playing footie in the streets.

    Everything seems so much better in hindsight Liam, but you are right as far as making our own entertainment is concerned, we did it because there really was no alternative. Social interaction was what forged a community spirit. It was face to face communication in those days (and not so very...

    Listening to Je t´aime by Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin was about as good as it got !!

    Memories of Playing footie in the streets.

    There used to be some proper pitches over towards the Manor House and on towards the A45; and I´m pretty sure that some Sunday league games were played there. A bit after my time though. I do remember however playing for Whitley Colts on the pitch directly in front of Allesley Hall and blazing a...

    Memories of Playing footie in the streets.

    I used to live at the bottom end of Allesley Old Rd., opposite what is now the pitch and put golf course. Despite the undulating surface, in the mid to late sixties during school summer holidays, games of football would go on for what seems like days on end, starting in the morning and...

    Crime watch - madeline

    I´ve always thought that there is something very strange about the parents, just some intuitive thing you can get about people without any obvious reason for it. We all tend to let our guard down when we are on holiday with young children, but two so called professionals who would leave their...

    city get new centre half

    Hope we´re not expecting him to chip in with the odd goal here and there, since according to wikipedia he´s scored 2 in his entire career. Please note that this is just a light hearted comment, before people start to say that we didn´t get him to score goals or that we´re judging him before he´s...
