Graham Taylor denies that he was told by FA to limit the number of black players he picked. Taylor responded*:


"My record speaks for itself. I picked shit players for England regardless of their colour - I mean, I picked both Geoff Thomas and Keith Curle - QED"


*not really

He seems more annoyed that this 'private' conversation is in a book - than the fact that it never happened...


'I?m so annoyed about it. They?ve gone ahead ? as I understand it, what I?ve said to them privately has just got out. Or what I?m accused of saying to them privately, which I deny and can?t remember it, they?ve gone out publicly and said it and yet they?re saying themselves it was said to them privately. Oh it?s very private then to publish a book about it, isn?t it?'


Never the best communicator wasn't Graham.

Alan Dunne has been a bit of a liability as of late. Receiving red cards for rash decisions.


Also making silly mistakes resulting in goals being conceded and fracas with David Forde.


Neil Harris has released 18 players from the Millwall squad.


Carlos Edwards, Ricardo Fuller, Danny Shittu , Martyn Woolford , Nicky Bailey, Matthew Briggs, Richard Chaplow,


Magaye Gueye, Justin Hoyte, Stefan Maierhofer and Angel Martinez .. all gone..



Youngsters Dylan Casey, Sofiane El-Bekri, Denzel Gerrar, Jake Goodman, Josh Siafa and Callum Webb


will also depart the club.


Will be a new team next season.

Apparently Camweon said he got confused as he'd been past Upton Park earlier that day but he was a solid Villa fan who used to go with his uncle. What he failed to mention was he'd been past Upton Park n a helicopter and his uncle used to own Aston Villa!

He probably supports Burnley too.


Asked how he felt after that gaff he said "He felt like kicking himself harder than a Benteke shot". He's obviously been briefed and even knows a player now.

Jimmy Greaves by John Hegley


It's not much of a planet

that everybody leaves

there's not a lot of faith about

but I am someone who believes

that what we need without a doubt

is more of Jimmy Greaves

imagine Jimmy's picture in every picture frame

imagine all religion praising Jimmy's name

the world is just a candle

and Jimmy Greaves is the flame

won't you gimme Jimmy

it used to be his turn of speed.

he left defences in a daze

now he rents his turn of phrase

and when I turn on the TV

and Jimmy's there

my spirits raise

and when I'm in a blazing row

and I'm in the process of rolling up my sleeves

I just think of Greavsie and he relieves me

more and more of Greavsie

is what this country needs

he's the man to sow the seeds of sanity

he's off the booze he's on the ball

he's got a message for us all

he can help humanity

to heal itself

to haul itself

from this self-destructive stupor

he's what you call a trooper

I think he's blinking super

he's a tooper super duper

so please don't give me Henry Cooper

he isn't Jimmy Greaves

people say that I'm loopy

they think I'm nothing

but a Greavsie groupie

but I tell them

you're not fit to wash

Jimmy Greaves' moustache.

    • 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. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
