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...

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?

    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since.
