Wolfsburg's womens team have a player called Minge. That is all.

There. I said it. The powerful physique. The way he can drop a shoulder and go past a player like they're not there. The perfectly weighted threaded through-balls. The sheer presence of the man. He's just an incredible driving force. They didn't show a replay, but that bit in the first half...

I bought a lovely pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarers from the duty-free in Gatwick on the way to Gran Canaria last year, which cost me £140 (apparently reduced from £180), and they were very much excellent. Sadly, on a drunken wobble home from the pub last autumn, I fell off my bike. Scuffed up my arms...

Whats the verdict ? I'm a total tech ADDICT and I have to say...I love em, although they do seem to be a bit marmite. I've just finished a 3 year contract on a Samsung Z Flip 3. Setting it in front of me with it semi-tilted so I can scroll and read shit rather than holding it, or having it...

Sorry, didn't see a thread about this on here, so mods feel free to merge. I binged the (8) episodes over the last few days. One of the best series I've ever watched. Colin Farrell under a Katie Price-amount of plastic proths is incredible, but there's SO much more to it than that. The entire...

This may well have been done before on here but I'm past caring. This won't be a POLL, because the answers are infinite and I don't believe in boundaries. Anyhoo, for now I'm going with (and in no particular order): Joker - The Dark Knight (Heath Ledger) Johnny Ringo - Tombstone (Michael Biehn)...

Started watching this on Prime last night, charting the careers of Bruno, Eubank, Benn and Lennox. Great interviews, tremendous fight footage and all the noise surrounding them outside the ring. Only seen E1 of 4 so far, but will likely devour the remainder over the weekend. GO SEE. Its bloody...

"And...a...a..and..." *sniff* "And the...th...then he...h...he passed it straight to a WOLVES player" 😥😥😥

All I can say is... Welcome to OUR world

Danny Welbeck's free kick strike was the FOURTH direct free kick we have scored in the PL. That's 7+ years, 271 games, 0.014 free kick goals per game. Fair play to Welbz, he went close against Ipswich with one as well last week, so hopefully this could be a useful new string to his bow in the...

Interested to read today that in training, Ivan Toney practices all his penalties from 13 yards instead of 12 so that psychologically, when it comes to the real thing, it feels slightly easier. Genius, or dangerous ? YOU decide.

OK, so with a sunny window this afternoon I decided to give the lawn its first cut of the year. I always begin by strimming the borders first (I have wooden edging), before getting the mower out to finish the job. Anyway, my Bosch strimmer was being a little BITCH. Every time I started, I'd get...

Forboding plumes of thick black smoke rising up behind the North during the second half. I was idly wondering if a train had caught fire at the station. Turned out it was a car on fire on the eastbound carriageway. Hopefully everyone was ok, but god help anyone who missed the first tranch of...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67596738 Forest Green's FA Cup second-round tie at Blackpool on Saturday has been postponed due to a Football Association investigation into League Two club Rovers. A statement from Forest Green said they would "comply with the FA in their investigation"...

This years Churchill Square "Christmas tree"

Driving up in the morning (THIS morning, Friday) to a city centre hotel. The plan for Friday evening, following a few beers and a lunch, is a night out at the DOG track (6 and 2 reverse). Matchday I'll be swerving Hooters, as its ridiculously rammed. But I'll be on the scout for a pub near to...

Several children horrifically stabbed in Dublin outside their school, by an Irish citizen (who has been apprehended, not terror-related) The result - a mob, a bunch of tooled-up thugs, trashing Dublin city centre, torching police cars, fighting with riot police, and looting stores. In other...

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/oct/17/european-football-ground-spotting-quiz-name-the-stadium Just given this a whirl, and managed a quite respectable 13/15 which I was rather PLEASED with. Admittedly I had a couple of moderately lucky "educated guesses" in amongst it. But then what...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-66846772 The discovery of ancient wooden logs in the banks of a river in Zambia has changed archaeologists' understanding of ancient human life. Researchers found evidence the wood had been used to build a structure almost half a million years...

A brief little chat in the Cricketers during my lunch "hour" today (WFH) when I clocked Charlie on his own. I asked if he was going to the game tomorrow, which he isn't, but said he will def be watching it. I'd completely forgotten that he'd been at AEK with Gus a few years back. He reckons that...
