Well, in Jah's absence, it gives me enormous pleasure to "educate" young Matthew!


This clip doesn't exactly show his most famous goals, but I like it because it displays his fabulous footwork...oh, and I just love the way he accelerates past the other players. And also because I thought he looked even dishier in his Northern Ireland colours than he did in red. God, the man was a genius. Magnificent!

PUFF DADDY...



Is buying "Crystal Palace " football club ( apparently )


God I so hope it's true, can you imagine the "attitude"



The whole Idea thrills me no end...


"Kris-Tal Pal-Ace"


Ah ah....yeeh ..

Like it (soundtrack aside). What's amazing is this was the age when you were allowed to kick people about a bit. Given the advantage attackers have now and the way defenders are being so very limited in what they can do it would be amazing, although pointless admittedly, to wonder what he could do now.

Gosh...I simply cannot get enough of his genius.


Stupendous stuff!


George Best...it's all in the name.


Thank you RD.


Edited to say: I hope you are paying attention young Matthew.

Edited again because omitted to mark the 3,100th post

Still high praise indeed...especially from a City fan;-)

You are joking? Didn't you know that Rooney is Ireland's gift to England!

Good bet but they re still long shots surely. But I expect them to beat Lyon. Then who knows.


I have been to the stadium at Bordeaux - dragged wife along there on our honeymoon!) and its a great little place. They seem to be a club on the up.


Who knows they could do a Porto?

    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic. 
    • To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.
    • You don’t think there are right-wing politicians fanning this with rhetoric? Really?
