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?

    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand). 
    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.
