Chances are he'll be on one of the trains to Watford today, too, chatting happily with the fans. How many other owners do that? Can't see Stan Kroenke getting the underground up to Highbury & Islington and strolling to the Emirates in the same way.

It's always high just before the first match of the season; ever the optimist. Right now, after an active transfer window, playing in the Premier League, supporting one of the best run clubs in the country, having made a combination of steady and spectacular progress since 2009, I think it is...

Someone I have never heard of writing in a journal I have never heard of.

Which of the players in the squad are getting younger? This could augur really well for the youth teams in a few years time!

I was thinking Man U because they have fallen further behind their main competition for top spot but in the end I opted for Leicester because they lost their best player. Great poll tho, had to think long and hard. The only thing I can say for certain is it wasn't Brighton. Lost no-one of...

Huddersfield fan had them to go down. I think that is the first time I have ever seen that, apart from maybe clubs that are definitely in crisis.

Bit harsh on Vicente, Lawrenson and Richard Tiltman I think.

Nope definitely not. Gary Williams was £30k. The story goes that Mullery asked the team who was the best player they had played against that season and Lawro topped the poll so we went out and bought him. I can still remember the sense of shock at Brighton paying £100k for a player; football's...

Buying or selling Buying? Lawro was our first £100,000 fee I think Maybank arrived a few months later for £175k Gordon Smith and Michael Robinson were both £400k I believe The Wardy/Ritchie/Birtles thing was a bit convoluted as values were attached to players rather than cash changing hands...

Quite why they needed to have him on I don't know other than to see the retired cop demolish his argument with the facts. I thought it was an excellent doc but could have done with a bit more robust editing. Much as I enjoy other people's home movies, I don't need to see the same clips half a...

Palin without doubt. Also the best actor. If you need proof look no further than "GBH"

Surely it is just the continuation of a trend that had already started. For most of its history the WC has been shared equally between S America and Europe. Since 2006 though, 2 all European finals (Italy v France 2006, Spain v Netherlands 2010). If there is a correlation it is between the...

This by the genius that was Joe Meek.

Same here. I found Mulholland Drive very unsettling. The lesbian sex scene however was blissfully straightforward.

Maybe their best. If memory serves me well (which, given my advanced years, it very often does not), Won't Get Fooled Again was the final number of their set at Charlton in 1976, with an amazing laser light show. It had even stopped raining by then.

The first single I ever bought with my own money. Still love it.

Has to be this one, but so many to choose from. One of the first singles I bought was Bad Moon Rising. Saw John Fogerty at the RAH a few years ago - a great show. Another band badly ripped off by their management, and it split the band too.

I wouldn't disagree with any of that and I don't think I presented the statistic as definitive of anything in particular. Also, I wasn't about to write a treatise on biodiversity. Apart from anything else, I am not qualified to do so. A case of recency rather than primacy; as I had only seen...

That name is anthropocene. It is not so much the hunting that is doing for other living beings as the loss of habitat. No-one knows when the tipping point, where the damage to the food chain and lack of diversity, will produce a general breakdown that will impact on humanity (for those who think...

Was it on his cv? Bit more interesting than the usual reading, holidays and following the Albion stuff, I guess, although presumably the interviewers missed that bit. I also wonder if he attached a photo!
