    [Football] Heysel

    He blamed the fans. But to be fair, most people had been sold by the narrative of the media and the police.

    [Football] Heysel

    I don't think it's been forgotten at all. I mean, as soon as you mentioned it I knew it must have been 40 years. I think I was playing cricket that night and I got back to my friends house to be told what had happened. I saw the last part of the match. The players didn't want to be there...

    Aye, and if Leeds lost me Pa would slice us in 'alf with carving knife.

    TEN YEARS OLD ? You were lucky. We had to watch Cup Final through 't neighbours window every year int pouring rain.

    Or just jumped the train. It's nothing new. Let those who have never, ever, dodged a fare cast the first stone. The funniest story I have is of a relation of mine. 4 years and over had a fare levied on them. A bus driver asked her how old she was when she got on the bus. 'I'm 3 when I get on...

    I'm no sure at which point I said it was okay, especially given that I said 'he may well have a point'. But if he truly wants to talk about a society where illegal denial of income is an issue, and it is, one would suggest that the £30m+ he nearly cost the taxpayer when supporting, against...

    And if we had a rule where no-one was allowed to respond to the thread if they had, ever, ever, dodged a fare then we may be a bit short of replies. Not suggesting it isn't an issue, but Robert Jenrick being the messenger kind of makes it lose its meaning. Still, I'm guessing he has started...

    I'll do that next time someone robs my house and tells me not to cheat on my insurance claim.

    I think the wider point was that he approved those building works to the detriment of the taxpayer and to a Tory Party donor. I remember it at the time. Utter crook. So, yes, he may have a point. But I'm not sure that folk are well disposed to taking moral guidance from him. EDIT: Looking...

    That was over waist height. Got away with that. Did our best to lose, but wasn't to be.

    Good to see Robinson bowling sensibly when someone moves right outside their leg stump to create space. Spear a yorker.

    20 over cricket is a strange animal. It's pretty easy to predict at the start of the tournament who isn't going to win, but impossible to say who is most likely.

    [Football] Unfair EFL play-offs

    This is the issue. Albion were involved in a bruising match at Middlesbrough whilst Massive were able to rest players. So an unfair advantage. Sunderland seemed to be resting for weeks. I like the National League format.

    How do we stop our players from trebling their wages with a major European Champions League Club ?

    What with Chelsea having spent so little on their squad in the last three years, you can't help but be enthused by the joy of winning the Conference League. I thought the commentators could have been more complimentary.
