That was probably Ian Neal. My son played with his son Lewis from U10 I think. I have some great memories of matches and wins. Wasn't so keen on all the nights spent taking him to training though. You didn't say when your son started playing as if it was as early as U10's they probably played on the same team.


As this is the irrational rage thread I'd like to add the behaviour at matches of the parents of some kids who played football.

Lewis and my son are still very good friends, my boy played for only a couple of seasons until he reached 18 and all the lads were rejected by the first team manager. Very political as I recall and as do all the other parents of the group.

Here's another gem from a person causing me much rage today


"I do fully understand your position and I can see and appreciate the logic of it, but it?s just that I do not agree with you ."


If this person had the foresight to provide some kind of counter argument I wouldn't be raging so much, but to just say "I do not agree with you". Dear oh dear.

The weather is warm today first capital connect suggests you bring some water. Ffs. Nxt they will be saying remember your hanky wash behind your ears and wipe yerself ... Well you know. Nanny state ? Nanny railway. Also heard don't forget your luggage.

"No problem" or even worse "No probs" and "No problemo".


A few years ago some guy was giving me a quote for insurance over the phone. After every exchange he said "No problem". I then said "Would you please stop saying 'No problem', it's getting on my nerves", to which he replied "OK, no problem".

But the real reason for tonight's visit is to say how irritating it is when fashion writers and shops describe a piece of clothing, or indeed anything at all, as 'luxe', eg 'a luxe sweater'.


Makes my stomach positively heave.

    • Not really since the first world war, and mainly in the sense then of 'getting a Blighty one' meaning a wound so serious you had to be sent home. I seriously doubt if one school child in 100 now would know what Blighty meant if the word was presented on its own with no context.

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.
