Was thinking about something really weird that I witnessed at an Albion game back in the Goldstone days and wondered how many weird and wonderful stories you had from left field? I remember vividly a young lad entered at the back of the North Stand wearing Ten Pin Bowling Shoes. The copper at...

Watched most of the Oasis:Supersonic documentary on BBC4 last night. However, late on in the show, as they were about to play Wonderwall, I instinctively turned off as I always do when this song is about to be played. I wish my lasting and purest memory of Wonderwall to be that of the pitch...

Dear All I have watched with interest these past couple of years the debates on this forum relating to Parking Enforcement on private land. Interestingly today, POPLA, the independent arbitration service for parking on private land have published their annual report and I thought I would share...

Can see some problems ahead and possibly even a departure in January. However, if you think about it, this is actually a positive thread (he says sensing trouble..). Someone will at least have been playing well.

Last summer we turned down one of these lucrative mini-tournaments. Can't see us doing the same this summer and to be fair I would like to see us accept. Your thoughts?

Surely the BFG starts against Man Utd? and then withdrawn on 60 minutes to the most deafening roar and chant of "We've had a Big F@~@@@ German..." Utterly selfless and one of the great professionals the club has ever had. Personally, I would keep our 4 CD's together but sadly reality dictates...

In an attempt to get us over the line tonight, I have decided to commit my lucky jeans and shoes to the great football stadium in the sky. Ever presents at the Amex, it has become apparent that even the football gods are incapable of overcoming the Pounds, shillings and pence of the Premier...

Always a staple in our house and admire the way they have managed to keep what on the face of it is a fairly narrow set of characters and plots so very fresh. Loved last night's attempt at a Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Jump and of course! Where's ya wally!

With this lot in charge might be worth giving this some thought. I am going to start with a) Bicycles (plus puncture repair kits) and Horses. Only long term means of getting around. b) Pencils. We will need to start writing again and I will be starting the first privateer postal service. First...

A little bit superstitious like most football and sports fans. Been thinking that in recent times, we have performed a little bit better when kicking towards the North in the first half. Your thoughts, should we win the toss on Saturday?

Not as rare as you might think I would suggest. My starter for 10 is when Matthew Edwards got that winner against Pompey in an evening game in front of the South Stand. A long time friend punching the air in absolute scenes instead caught me square on the nose. I was reeling for 5 minutes...

Interesting to know what sport our very own turn to when Football takes a break (if any). Golf for me. Playing and watching.

Holiday Season looming on the Horizon. lets have you votes...

So, it was only a matter of time before the government would "consult" on this. Lets help them on their merry way. For me it is a yes. I save em then bank em.. #prayforthecopperone

Love the fact that Sergei Skripl was once the Soviet Cultural and Sports Attache to the Maltese Embassy. This moniker was always a euphemism for SPY. What are the other great euphemisms of modern time?

This one could run and run...

This came up in the car back from Stoke on Saturday. Why is the simplest Winter Sport not an Olympic Sport. Get a Hill, any hill but preferably a bit undulating. Singles/Pairs/Cram as many on as possible. If you fall off and the sledge beats you to the finish (often the case), your time is...

Been spitting feathers all weekend (Sad I know) But I and my closest mates are all general sports fans. And so it was that on returning to the car park after Saturday's game, we looked forward to the England v Wales commentary filling the inevitable queuing time to get out of Dodge (Stoke). On...

For PB's benefit.

I have long lamented the disappearance of the old school art of dribbling. The kind that you needed to succeed when playing 'Wembley' in the playground. And then along comes James Wilson with that goal today...dancing around outstretched legs, turning this way and that. There are the 'ghost...
