Was just pointing out that very few games end @ 90 minutes.

Wish I'd been there.


English football stronger - depends on the era, look back a bit further.

My favourite visit to Parkhead was back in '88 when they won the league in their centenary year, so there was a real party atmosphere. Celtic were playing Dundee, who only brought a couple of hundred fans with them. Despite their small numbers, with segregation there were large gaps of empty terracing, meaning the official capacity that day was supposed to be only around 50,000+. But with thousands more Celtic fans outside wanting to get in, the police eventually told the Dundee fans that they had to leave for safety concerns. After jeering them as they left, the away end soon filled up with Celtic fans. The official attendance for that game was given as the ground capacity of 60,800, but there must have been about 70-75,000 in the ground by kick-off time, total sardine time but a fantastic atmosphere. You can spot me in the video, I'm the one not singing YNWA... ;-)

I've got 'wall down for a draw, and I think they will win the replay, is that enough to get me a snog around the back of the bike sheds?..

Thanks for clearing that up Mick. I suspected you were a Latin scholar!

Lennon writing to UEFA to get clarification?!!! Oh wow - has he ever lost a game without complaining in one way or another?

He must have forgotten the very, very dodgy penalty awarded to Samaras that got them into the last 16.

Ah the highs and lows of my short time in Glasgow.


I also went to Scotland vs Belgium in a European Championship qualifier late '83 after Scotland had already been knocked out.


12,000 attendance on a bitterly cold night. In a previous era Hampden had had 140,000 plus. Now one side of the ground and one end closed due to safety reasons (it was falling down). I remember the press area came out of the roof of a stand. Weird stuff. And I think the urinals were outside against a wall or perhaps that was a story from somebody else.


There was secretarian self segregation with the DoBs in one set of terracing and the Fenians in the other. Both terms of endearment from people I met at Strathclyde Uni. someone else can explain.

      FOUND: Lost Black and White cat Landcroft Road/Crystal Palace Road

      It may be worth consulting your vet. If she's diabetic & on medication, she will have missed 1-2 doses. It's a relief to hear that she's home, & I hope she makes a speedy recovery.

      Newbies - Swimming lessons and gym

      By bonaome · Posted

      The swimming lessons at JAGS Sportsclub are very popular, and the gym there might meet your needs. Southwark took over running its leisure centres from everyone active a while back and so far seems to be making a real mess of things. There’s lots of private gyms and other council ones in Lewisham and Lambeth so depending on exactly where you’re going to be you can look at those. JAGS and Dulwich College both have sports clubs with nice facilities, but you can’t use them during the school day. Check their sites for details.

      GALA 2025

      By fishboy · Posted

      https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/jun/26/cardiff-blackweir-festival-bute-park-dispute?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other Another example of a badly sited festival, and a council bending over for the cash. What amazes me is the similarity in every way to Gala - large areas annexed but the council trying to convince everyone it's only a tiny part of the park. Claiming that the flora & fauna is being protected when the reality is a tick-box environmental survey that's not worth the paper it's written on. All very depressing.
