    Danny Baker's World Cup Show

    Anyone else see it last night on BBC4 ? I know a lot of people don't like DB, but I've always found him to be a very amusing bloke. Original and quirky, and his genuine understanding of what it means to be a fan shines through all the time.

    I've had enough of Gary Barlow

    Why can't we get Gary Barlow to write a song for Eurovision ? I'm sure he'd come up with the goods.

    Article about the Premier League by a...

    I think it's more difficult for supporters of proud old clubs, clubs with tons of history and tradition (Villa, WBA, Newcastle, etc.) to accept that they have NO chance of winning the League they play in. Bit like England and the World Cup - we somehow feel that we SHOULD have a chance of...

    Renting out a spare bedroom

    I've used spareroom.co.uk, there's always a lot of people looking for rooms there. You must have a proper written agreement, and set absolutely clear house rules, eg keeping place clean & tidy, late night noise, payment of rent schedules, etc. I always interview face to face and go on...

    [Albion] Bournemouth Sell Their Allocation - Tickets Left for Home Fans

    It's not always a question of geographical proximity - Arsenal and QPR, for example, are just a few miles apart but there's no local rivalry to speak of. Because Brighton and Bournemouth are similar types of town - both big, prestigious South Coast resorts - there's an obvious rivalry that...

    Black Friday Massacre

    Apparently, Black Friday is well-known for violent crowds, mass hysteria, shootings, etc as hordes of shoppers get totally hyped up about the whole thing. I recall there was something similar here, when they opened up the big new IKEA in Enfield a few years back. Black Friday ? Sounds like a...

    Re the Hungarian guy, just wondering what sort of benefits package we could expect if we turned up penniless and homeless in Budapest ?

    Black Friday Massacre

    Interesting. The genocide of Native Americans was one of the most shameful episodes in history. Would be a bit like if Germany decided to hold a boozy Carnival-style public holiday that co-incided with Holocaust Day. Not that they would, of course, just drawing comparisons.

    Black Friday Massacre

    Out of interest, how long has this day been known as "Black Friday" in the US ? And it's because people have money to splash, i.e. they're in the black, right ? Nothing to do with a massacre ?

    Black Friday Massacre

    Grotesque...I had no idea of the origin of the phrase. Utterly macabre that they now use it in a celebratory way.

    Black Friday in the UK - Will you be buying anything ?

    Find it odd that they call it Black Friday.....sounds grim to me, like a funeral or a disaster.
