I've noticed that the favourite conspiracy theory about the Falmer decision is the idea that John Prescott over-ruled the findings of two experienced planning officers simply to avoid the potential of trouble at the Labour Party Conference this September.
After Ian Hart's performance on SCR...
Listened to the tail-end of Harty's interview on the SCR Breakfast show this morning and have to say he didn't sound at all up-beat. Seemed very depressed about the whole thing. Thought it was all a big political stich-up by Prescott, the only reason for having another inquiry into alternative...
It's going to be a real slog trying to explain to all my non-Albion friends and family members just what the hell is going on with the stadium. I'm having trouble as it is!
They are all bound to say "oh but I heard on the radio that it had been turned down" and with a deep sigh i'll have to go...
Don't know if anyone else has picked this up, but I see that our new kit is on display at this site; http://www.colours-of-football.com/eng/england_n18.html
Looks quite good to me, is this really what it will look like? This site is normally correct with its kit designs.
Did anyone else catch that documentary on Channel 4 last night about that Simon Harries kid, the one who appeared on Wogan and a load of other chat-shows in the 80's?
He is now a she, called Loren, and she lives with her family in a mock-mock Tudor cottage on a Cardiff Council estate. The family...
What has Adams got against Rooney? First we had:
"Despite the extraordinary tournament he is having, I would drop Rooney from tonight's England team to play Croatia."
Now he's saying:
"Rooney's a great player and sits well between the midfield and the attack but, in order to keep it tight...
Portuguese police officers will turn a blind eye to England supporters who openly smoke cannabis during Euro 2004, having decided that a stoned crowd is easier to control than a drunk one.
Lisbon police confirmed yesterday that England fans will not be arrested for puffing on joints on the...
Summer is here. The sun is out and the sights are fine. Like flowers bursting into bloom, lovely lady types are wandering the streets of our fair towns dressed in not very much, giving us men folk the chance for plenty of sneaky prev moments.
However.
When the flowers bloom so do the nettles...

Why...
I have been getting more and more concerned as this week has progressed. Concerned about the high level of positive messages being posted on NSC. Day after day of constant threads filled with people being HAPPY and EXCITED to be going to one of the best stadiums in Europe to watch the Albion in...
I introduced a couple of friends to the joy of "Marvellous scenes" in the pub last night. However, a question arose. What is the opposite of "Marvellous scenes"? I suggested "Appalling scenes" but there was also support for "Disgusting scenes", "Horrendous scenes" and even "Outrageous scenes"...
Can you?
It's the sound of silence.
Not a peep coming out of Bristol City.
No crowing about dream finals, no blabbing about how rubbish the opposition are and how many goals they're going to get against us. No boasting about penalty techniques, no lording it over our poor performances. No...

The all new Club Championship will be launched in 2005. Probably will be held between 17-31st July and hosted by a North American country (USA or Mexico, I reckon Mexico City is the likely venue). Each confederation will put forward it's champion club to compete in the tournament. You get a...

"It's all set up for the final against Bristol City which should be a great occasion"
Excuse ME Mr King, you chain smoking twat, but I wouldn't be gobbing off just yet. Shall we wait until after the two play-off games until we start talking about finals. Cheers for the motivation, i'm sure...
