The 'institutionally racist FA' employed a black manager for a large part of the time that Sol is talking about.

HA! I totally forgot about that rather important bit of criteria, doing nothing but eating and drinking for 2 days has clearly fried my brain!

Not sure if he's sussex born but Stan Brown who coaches kids in Lewes, used to play for Fulham and was close to an england call up in 65. The England call up information came from my Dad who was prone to exaggeration so may not be accurate!

If you can notice the difference between 720 and 1080 when playing games, your tv is either the size of a kingsize mattress or you are sitting FAR to close to your TV and in about 5 years your eyesight will be so messed up this argument will be rendered irrelevant for you!

Got mine at half 9. will be my 11th Glastonbury, whilst having good headliners improves the festival it doesnt live and die by them like others (reading, v etc) i know its a bit of a cliche but theres so much more to see than just whats on the Pyramid.

the closest I can get to famous is played with a lad who was on watfords books. One monday he showed up at school with a massive black eye, he was strangely proud when he told us he had been headbutted by les ferdinands cousin (later to be known as rio). Some years later he scored the winner...

anyone know if there was a clause in the Noone deal getting us a tidy sum if they got promotion? (possible fixtures)

I'd like to see Idris Elba as the Doctor. If not him, Lord Bracknell would smash it!

Did find Obertans nationality on the list highly amusing!

My sympathies to you and your family. My first game was with my Dad also. cant remember the year, mid-late 80s, boxing day, we lost one nil to bristol rovers and it TIPPED it down. Been hooked ever since! He wouldve been 60 today, I will be raising a glass or 6 tonight.

put two bids in on football manager. one for Zaha and one for Buckley (managing Newcastle) 3.5 accepted for Zaha, Bloom wants 5 mil for Buckley. This closes the debate of whos better.

Fair enough, i must confess i dont know much about the case. Assuming his innocence, it would only be fair that he had the people who accused him by the danglies*, you cant just post rumours about someone that turn out to be untrue and not expect to be punished was the point i was trying to...

Fair play to him though (never thought id say that about a Tory) Reckon he could kick up more of a fuss and ask for a lot more compensation, i wouldve in his position. AND it goes to charity.

If the Fa find the ref guilty, surely anything more than a 4 game ban for him will smack of double standards? He did have a shocker though!

I was there. Was a bit of a 'greatest hits' set, not much new material but still brilliant.

All time fav is Bill Hicks. Stewart Lee and Brendon Burns are also brilliant.

Neither player 'won' the ball, what im looking at is the amount of contact made, In my opinion and that of all referees i have spoken to (5) is that Halsey got the decision spot on. The laws of the game dont change depending on the atmosphere, its the players responsibility to take into account...

The most watchable 0 0 ive seen for a while. Both teams will come away saying 'we couldve won that'. Felt Noone was on it tonight apart from his distribution, as woeful as his crossing was it must be hard to pick out a striped shirt in the area when theres only one in the box. Barnes was ok felt...

Any chance of a crowd renedition of 'donkey sanctuary' penned by our very own Attila?

Went to the boxing at the Excel last night. Got tube from victoria at 6, never known the tube to be so empty, all 6 of us walked straight on and got seats! so i wouldnt worry too much about overcrowding on the way there, it appears most year round commuters have gone on holiday or stayed...
