    [Football] 3pm kick offs shown live.

    Apologies if fixtures. Coming back from a lovely day out at Tilgate Park with my Grandson, being offered, via ITV and Sky, not one but 3 live games of football, all having kicked off at 3pm I must have missed it in the summer, but clearly the EFL has finally sold its soul. 🙈

    [Music] Censorship back in the day.

    Just chatting in the office about all the various trigger warnings now in the media, and recalling this particular ditty, which was on TOTP in late 1980 when Peter Suttcliffe was still at large. Strange how it was in a time not long after the Pistols had been banned, and the charts rigged to...

    After the Paris Olympics, aiming for his third Olympic Gold. Aside from the Paraguay gaffe in 2006 when he was a teenager, which his detractors forever wheel out, surely he's proved himself to be one of the greatest British sportsmen ever?

    [Football] England's best ever opponents?

    One for the old fogies to debate, is the Group game vs Brazil in the 1970's World Cup in Mexico, the best team the Three Lions have ever played in a competitive fixture? At the time eventual champions Brazil's boss Mario Zagallo described the game as 'football for grown ups', as at that time...

    [Football] England ticket question

    I don't know if I'm showing my age, I was lucky enough to get a Cat 1 ticket for Sunday night, given the occasion, we gave ourselves plenty of time getting to the Olympic Stadium. We had a slight issue when the Politzei told us when tried to get in our specific entrance, L4, that we couldn't...

    [Albion] Fake Albion themed Facebook accounts warning

    Been requested in the last 48 hours by a Gary Chivers account, even though I'm a friend of his already, and by Lewis Dunk, who whilst I clearly I know who he is and we've spoken a number of times over the years. I doubt he's sitting in Germany sending out friend requests on FB :) Chiv has...

    [Football] Clive Tyldesley axed by ITV after 28 years

    Final commentary, Germany vs Denmark, this weekend, after being informed by ITV his contract would not be renewed after 28 years. Call me sentimental, but with new lead commentator Sam Matterface clearly with age on his side, surely they could have done the decent thing and let Clive finish...

    [News] Jay Slater missing in Tenerife

    As a parent it must be a nightmare when any child goes missing, whatever their age, but the more information that comes out it really is a strange one. He doesn’t strike me as your normal ‘Teen Brit‘ on holiday in the Canaries, going to the remote Air B and B with these two as yet...

    [Football] Panini Sticker Albums

    Old man alert, and I will stand corrected, but back in the day weren't the Panini albums distributed ‘free’ with copies of Shoot? I was in the CoOp yesterday and came across the PaninI Euro 2024 album point of sale stand, for a moment I thought, even though he’s only 16 months, collecting them...

    [News] Worthing Borough Council not officially commemorating the 80th Anniversary of D Day this Thursday

    Obviously a number on here might agree with the decision, but given that 80 years ago a large number of Canadian servicemen who were billeted in the town throughout the conflict took part in the Normandy landings (and many didn’t return 😞) I think it’s a decision in retrospect some might come to...

    [News] ICF's Bill Gardiner allegedly gave Russell Bishop a good hiding in the nick.

    https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/28224226/west-ham-hooligan-beat-up-babes-in-wood-killer/ The timing of the revelation seems strange, but whatever, if he did give Bishop a slap, take a bow Bill. :thumbsup:
