Saw this tweet from Dean Nelson that on this day in 1965, JH launched the Sky Blue Special train service to Preston. Interesting how language has changed, as it is described in the flyer as "The gayest supporters' train ever"!! I can't help thinking we may (rightly or wrongly) take some flak for...

Why are we not in our home strip - there is no clash! I HATE that with a passion. Time the FA put a stop to it!

The art of the "shoulder to shoulder" challenge has been lost in recent years (or certainly the ability to referee it has). Most of the time, it is one player barging the other off the ball with the shoulder, which is a foul. There is no benefit for the attacking player to try and win the ball...

Another terrific read - thanks Laurence. Do you write professionally? Your use of language is far superior to most of today's so-called journalists in click-bait newspapers! One negative - hippos can't get rabies, sorry!

That's quite a queue - their chips must've been good!

Pumps is quite common further north too. In the West Country where i grew up (and i think in South Wales), they were "daps"!

Exactly so!

I'm sorry, but right from game 1 against Southend, McFadz in particular, but others too, has shown an acute lack of awareness of who is around him, and has played others (notably Marosi) up shit creek without a paddle. I'm happy playing out from the back, and we play some stunning football that...

I think it's a fucking stupid concept. End of story!

Of course, yes i remember now - they used to get a job selling Amstrad computers or something, didn't they? I wonder if it changed after he had been dragged through that protracted claim for constructive dismissal by Stella English - once bitten, etc, etc! She lost, with the Tribunal Judge...

Talking of "quite specific" ... Fucking Warwick District Council wasting money on having a Veolia road-sweeper lorry do every street around Kenilworth virtually every day - in the morning rush hour! I've been held up by that c**t three days this week. THEY DON'T NEED DOING THAT OFTEN!!!!

Did it formally change, FM, or has it just evolved?

If it had gone on for a bit longer, i think they'd have been in with a shout!

What a bunch of tossers, as per! Men and women alike!

Stoke have been in free-fall since Hughes was there. They have bigger cultural issues behind the scenes, clearly. But they're owned by a massive blood-sucking gambling company, so fuck 'em! Robins won't go there - but Jones won't be there for much longer!

They did well to stem the Aussie tide after they came back from 26-8 to 26-22. Great defence, then managed to control possession for the last ten minutes. They'll probably fuck it up against Fiji though! Or Uruguay!

Because Max has done precisely bugger-all in the time he has been on the pitch this season?

I reckon they could do a job on the Jocks too, and end up winning the fookin' group!

This week's episode had me creased up with laughter. Ed Gamble is real quality, with his Buckaroo and the mermaid! Quaver, anyone?! And it may be just me, but is Katy Wix just ever-so-slightly foxy??!
