Well done Wigan, now go down and disappear for all that crap whelan gave the Hammers about Tevez,


I have seen Best, Moore, Charlton, Maradonna and Platini live, which ain't a bad fivesome. I even saw the first three in the same match.


My favourite player ever tho is, for a host of reasons, Alan Devonshire.

Escape to Victory - what a movie. Supposedly Kevin Beattie accepted an arm wresting challenge from Sly Stallone, beat him right and left arm, and Stallone never spoke to him again. There was also a rumour that John Wark's lines were dubbed by a Hungarian extra because his accent was easier to understand.

Not as delighted as every leaden-footed, muscular, centre forward/half/back looking for a club...


ETA: please let the rumours that BFS is looking at Crouch as a Carroll replacement be just rumours.

This.


Couldn't give a toss about Mancini, he'll be fine, and his pockets will be well lined. I just hate the way football is now.


I have an extra copy of this (having received 2 when I ordered it for a Man City fan as a secret santa prsent)

which I'm told is a very very good read about how football is these days. I plan to read it after I've finished the 2 books I'm currently on.

I agree with City - I think achieveable targets shoud be included in footballing contracts. Otherwise they massivly underperform, and get paid massive compensation eg Eriksson's contract extension for England - there is little or no accountibility but there should be.

      Resident Doctors

      By ianr · Posted

      This week's edition of The Briefing Room I found really useful and impressively informative on the training aspect.  David Aaronovitch has come a long way since his University Challenge day. 😉  It's available to hear online or download as mp3. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002n7wv In a few days time resident doctors -who used to be known as junior doctors - were meant to be going on strike. This would be the 14th strike by the doctors’ union since March 2023. The ostensible reason was pay but now the dispute may be over without more increases to salary levels. The Government has instead made an offer to do something about the other big issue for early career doctors - working conditions and specialist training places. David Aaronovitch and guests discuss what's going on and ask what the problem is with the way we in Britain train our doctors? Guests: Hugh Pym, BBC Health Editor Sir Andrew Goddard, Consultant Gastroenterologist Professor Martin McKee, Professor of European Public Health, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Mark Dayan, Policy Analyst, Nuffield Trust. Presenter: David Aaronovitch Producers: Caroline Bayley, Kirsteen Knight, Cordelia Hemming Production Co-ordinator: Maria Ogundele Sound Engineers: Michael Regaard, Gareth Jones Editor: Richard Vadon

      The Office Party - how it used to be.

      By ianr · Posted

      That was one that the BBC seem to have lost track of.  But they do still have quite a few. These are some in their 60s archive. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0028zp6
