With all due respect to my long standing friendship with the Donkey Centre Half - how can I put this? Bollocks would seem to do it justice. Maintain the Titans are not that good and look forward to their demise at the first opportunity in the play-offs. "Football" season is all about the...

This one might be a bit physco-babble and bear in mind it's still early in Florida so I haven't had a coffee yet but..... what does everyone think about the suffix "United" for certain teams? Fair enough with a big city like Manchester which has two teams (with all due respect to Rochdale ...

but if I had to bet on who had the better grasp on youth football in England I'd probably go for Trevor Brooking over Brian Mawhinney!:tosser:

Go on then let's have a meet. Saturday afternoon at the Irish pub in Bartram Walk. If you're heading south on SR 13 do a left about half a mile after the Julington Creek bridge. I'll be wearing an Albion shirt and watching the Gators game. Who's in?

No he's definitely a wanker. I've never heard the song go "Scott McLeish is a legend".

Re Dreams of Children - the live version on Dig the New Breed is amazing. If it was a sitcom it would be Are You Being Served and I don't think higher praise than that is possible.

Sticking with the Style Council and in particular their more mellow offerings how about "You're the Best Thing"? I love the part that goes "I may get it wrong some time but I come back in style". Don't know why - just appeals to me! There is a car in the Deep South that eschews the...

I live down in Florida so can't easily join in with the Albion over the Big Apple bevvy session but at least there's someone else to be on NSC at odd hours now! Have worked in NYC (well actually Jersey City) a couple of times but much prefer the South to be honest and not only for the weather...

Very difficult one to answer. I flip between All Mod Cons and Setting Sons as to my favourite album. The Place I Love and Burning Sky would be my favourite songs most of the time but other times Ghosts and Boy About Town are up there. Man in the Corner Shop is pretty seminal as well. Can...

Where does this end? Logically if you're going to drive up the price of alcohol to prevent anti-social behaviour will you crack down on Ronnie Macs and the like discounting the price of burgers? Just because it's cheap people are not obliged to get off their faces and behave appallingly any...

What have the Romans ever done for us?

A Dukla Prague away kit.

Would agree that McCain's speech conceding defeat was very gracious and impressive and the people that booed when he congratulated Obama made themselves look ridiculous. Very interesting times lie ahead. Not least my ride into work tomorrow with my staunch Republican friend and colleague who...

They can't afford it!

Hope you're wrong there! Just read an email from one of "our team" apologising for any offence caused by her remark about a fried chicken franchise which was seized upon by the church members as proof that we're all fully gowned up cross burners! Only in the deep south!

Didn't like Obama at first but he has grown on me and I hope he wins. As has been said on here I see the Palin factor as the most critical. Scares the shit out of me that if McCain dies in the next 4 years (and you wouldn't want to wager too much on him seeing out the next 4 weeks) that the...

Good luck to you. All my 3 kids were born by c-section and can only speak as the Dad but all went well. No picnic for your wife afterwards for while. Probably the most practical advice I can offer you is to have a pint as quickly as possible afterwards.

Attended a meeting at local school tonight to voice opposition to a church that wants to move into our area. They want to build a "sanctuary" that will take 4000 people , a load of other buildings and a retail development to fund it. I live in a nice quiet area and our single carriageway road...

Absolutely splendid Daniel. Not sure if you found any but Witterkerke is one of my favourite Belgian white beers. Feel a little silly raising that actually as the chances of you not having sampled it are roughly the same as someone watching an advert for Sham-Wow and still insisting on wasting...

Oddly enough I was just starting to think of that. A couple of beers to start the evening , a nice meal and now we're most of the way down a bottle of red. A lot hinges on whether we open a second. Mind you I've got a really nice bottle of Malbec that's been on the wine rack for some time now...
