    When did it die out/disappear?

    Away from the will we/won't we make it / why isn't Wilson between the sticks debates, my mind (as so often), wandered onto the old football chant ' You're gonna get your f*ckin' heads kicked in' chant. You never hear it now, and I genuinely can;'t remember when I last heard it. When did it die...

    That EMC lay off/pass in the second half

    Not sure how much it has been referred to, but that was one sexy bit of play, in the second half. Got a gasp from the crowd and started a rendition of 'When the samba rhythm starts to play' and rightly so. He's looking better week on week following his lay off.

    Whitehouse/Mortimer fishing in France.

    TV gold. Fishing is irrelevant. Good for the soul ( no pun intended)

    Birmingham Airport

    Out of curiosity. Has anybody flown out of the airport recently - my son is flying to Alicante on Wednesday (about 7.15am) and I was just wondering how bad the queues were at the moment (think him and his mates are meeting there about 5am). Any advice much appreciated from the ever helpful SBA .

    Big clue that Vik is off?

    I see Sporting Lisbon have paid us circa £2,5m as a one off to reduce the future percentage from 15% to 10% in terms of profit. They wouldn't do that if they didn't think he was off. Good news for us overall.

    When Werder Bremen come to our place

    After playing Sheffield Wednesday in a friendly in Austria (Bremen were cloggers at times, by all accounts), I happened across this post match interview with Danny Rohl; however it was the 'version' of 3 lions that was the main interest. Any linguists fancy a stab?! Perhaps we'll get a...

    Which teams do we think will be top 6 this season?

    Was wondering which teams would be challenging this season. Ignoring ourselves (i think we will be thereabouts) pick 6 teams you think will be up there. I'm going for: Norwich (if their key forwards stay fit, I think they may be this season's dark horse) Sheff Utd - although if they lose...

    Bruno Fernandes - how the other half live !

    Re: Coventry City "It is a tough game," said Fernandes. "I see some of their games because my chef at home is a Sunderland fan, so I get to see some Championship games sometimes with him at home. Any of our players have their own chef, do we think? Perhaps Mick Quinn in the past? Edit...

    Big Vik - Nearly had a mare with google !

    Saw that he was playing tonight and somebody said on facebook that it was on TV ....so I typed into Google 'Where can I watch Young Boys (before I started to have an internal meltdown 😬) With a revised search involving Sporting Lisbon, I found out that they are playing Young Boys at the...

    The Press !!!

    Watching Chelsea crush Villa, Forgetting the skill levels, they've just swamped Villa with an aggressive press and blown them out of the water. A team consisting of energetic players up front and in the middle can totally disrupt the opposition, particularly if the defenders are not comfortable...

    Leamington and Warwick is NOT in Leicestershire!!

    To the 'mob' outside The Wheatsheaf after the Leicester game (and I and a few others often drink in there pre-match). We were travelling past the Wheatsheaf after the Leicester game in our Catteralls coach, when a couple of face covered youths started gesticulating 3-1 at us. Despite mouthing...

    Swiftie is a thread bumper

    Not sure I've encountered him/her before, but what is @Swiftie up to? Too much time on his/her hands to be trawling threads to embarrass posters. On a nearly related note, I'm starting to wonder if John Swift (West Brom) might be available in the January window (small fee, but big wages?)...

    Players on International Duty

    Jamaica 1-0 v Honduras Latibeaudiere booked, Palmer subbed (along with another Jamaican player) in 65th minute (so - hopefully - not an injury issue).

    Threat from set pieces

    Despite our relative success last season, the one area that I felt we were rarely a threat (Hamers technique aside) was from set pieces. We were a relatively small team with little aerial threat, and even Vik didn't provide much, despite his physique. This season, we seem to have acquired a...

    Attendances next season

    Just been thinking about next season's attendances, and with the likes of Leeds, Leicester, Sheff Wed joining the division you'd think the average would be even higher than this season. However, there are going to be more non Saturday 3pm fixtures, due to additional 'TV' coverage, which may...
