Here’s a question for the more ‘mature’ readers - say 28 years old and above.  Think back to when you were in the 17-19 years old bracket… could you have been classed as ‘a bit of a lad’? Did you know exactly where you wanted to be tomorrow, never mind in ten years time?
Did you […]

BUY BRITISH thumbnail

Once upon a time, I recall Chelsea (pre Abramovich) being accused of destroying the British game by picking teams full of foreigners.

With the news that we are to entertain a team who play at the Walkers Bowl in the Carling Cup, I got to thinking of crisps. Yes, spurious in the extreme, but it’s nice to move away from club politics for a while isn’t it?
So, does anyone else remember the good old days? Before Walkers […]


ANY PORT IN A STORM

ANY PORT IN A STORM thumbnail

When you’re struggling with form, confidence and the loss of a popular manager, a trip to a club ‘oop north’ to face a team filled with journeymen, ex top level players and an outhouse called Windass (although we were spared he and Barmby) - in midweek and still without a major part of the spine […]
