I hope everything turns out alright. But with five hostages having left, the terrorist supposedly owning an iPad, and the terrorising taking place at a Lindt cafe, it all sounds rather Four Lions so far...

Nothing beats the Phil Masinga sighting at KFC. I think the Gekoski book mentioned the club had tabs on a young Henry and Trezeguet. Not rumours but fact: the club were on the brink of signing Lee Bowyer, Neil Lennon and Chris Coleman, but all were pinched by other teams at the last minute...

I think it was frustration and despair with Strachan rather than hatred. His reign was a long time ago now and memories fade, but I do remember the sheer stubborness - to the detriment of the team - that he was capable of in that last year, e.g. not giving Aloisi a shot, not playing our best...

I think you must be on another planet. Take a look at this poll. A comfortable majority think Pressley should be sacked, and that is in mid-November. It follows that a great majority would hold him to account and want him gone if the team were relegated. Odd thread with a lot of needless...

Still on an Ego and the old Kanger T2s, but will be geting a Nautilus Mini and iStick (when the latter is back in stock!)

SP is not comparable to Andy Thorn, at least not yet. To give you some idea: after the same number of games in 2011, Thorn's team were six points deep in the relegation zone (effectively seven counting goal difference). Thorn was also infamously clueless in post-match interviews, whereas SP at...

The performance should be better tonight. The banished players should be dropped, and loyalists/those with something to prove should be on the pitch. Pressley, whether tonight or last month or next month, should never be judged on a result but on a performance. If the team is still limp after...

Whenever I feel like its losing its grip on me, the show comes up with a marvellous moment/twist to keep me tuning in. James Nesbitt is a bit one-note for my liking, but Tcheky Karyo, Ken Stott and Frances O'Connor are very watchable. The car chase in last night's episode was a spellbinding bit...

Charming and uplifting. You must be very proud.

Good stuff from Pressley. Asserting his authority and putting the entire squad on notice, without singling anyone out. These are, after all, L1 players. If they get ejected by a struggling team in football's third tier, there's no certainty of them landing on their feet. As bad as CCFC may seem...

That statement is too broad. There are managers like Nilsson and Black who were sacked too soon (indicating poor assessment skills from the regime at the time). Just running with those two until they were spent could have meant half as many new managers as we have had. The club was a bit more...

I upgraded. Like it. No problems at all, and all my apps work fine.

You'll get a kick out of this radio doc by Greg Proops on Bob Hope (if you haven't heard it before): http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b04kzz5t

Isn't it possible there is more to be scrutinised about Farage than others?

Do you think Farage warrants any criticism?

The closest thing to a reason that can be found in the archives is this tantalising headline from the Birmingham Post: Sky Blues silent on Hover link to Ricoh delay

It'd be fine as it is, though it could do with a polish here and there, e.g. enter instead of put in; perhaps rewrite the Earn section so it goes '...Find It For Less. You don't even need to buy anything to earn cashback. Simply share offers...' Not a typo tip, but it does strike me that the...

There was a good reason to sack Dowie: The team sat 19th in the table with two-thirds of the season done, and were on a nasty slide (8 points in 10 games). His cup successes, though fondly remembered, do cover up his poor performance in the league.

THE JUDGE: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1872194/reference Anyone hoping for a slick courtroom thriller will be disappointed. It's a long melodrama about family and a sense of place, with a dash of absurd legal stuff. Found it a tough watch, but Robert Downey Jr and Robert Duvall will hold you...
