    Guardian today

    Interesting experiment where arts critics review sport today and sports writers review arts tomorrow. http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2008/jun/17/1 Bit pretentious in places, especially: Watching football is, in theory, a bit like looking at art. The view from my seat (which has its own...

  2. Evolution proven in a Lab !!!

    New Scientist reports that evolutionary biologist Richard Lenski of Michigan State University in East Lansing, US, has confirmed evolution occuring in his lab over a 20 year period. Lenski’s experiment is also yet another poke in the eye for anti-evolutionists, notes Jerry Coyne, an...

    Euro 2008, A Blessing in Disguise?

    Does anyone else think that our failure to qualify may well be a blessing in disguise? Firstly it got rid of McClaren, who I think pretty much everyone would agree was an uninspired choice in the first place, and secondly it has given Capello a unique opportunity to experiment for a season...

    Arsenal v Reading

    Arsenal returned to winning ways at a freezing cold Emirates Stadium with a convincing 2-0 victory over a Reading side who are nose-diving at the worst possible time. Only a combination of fine goalkeeping, desperate clearances and Arsenal's own profligacy prevented this from becoming a...

  5. AFC Bournemouth up s**t creek/ imminent closure

    According to the BBC site, the administrators at AFC Bournemouth are about to close the club for good. Sad enough to see a club go to he wall, but it raises a couple of points for you all to discuss. 1) Football, no matter how emotive, is a business, and therefore, needs to be run as such...

    Poor old Spurs

    Juande Ramos' tilt at a third successive UEFA Cup ended in heartbreak at The Philips Stadium when Pascal Chimbonda dragged his spot-kick wide of the goal and sent PSV Eindhoven through by the narrowest of margins. Despite 210 minutes of football, these weary gladiators had to be separated by a...

    Channel 4 at 25

    So Channel 4 is about to celebrate 25 years of broadcasting and there has been some absolute crackers of TV gold broadcast in that time as well as some absolute car-crash tele. What are your best & worst things you've ever seen on C4? For me: - Best - the ground-breaking comedy (Comic Strip...

  10. Online Ticketing

    Just checked the OS for online ticket sales (for the umpteenth time since the fixtures were announced) and today the service is back up and running. tickets for both home friendly games are on sale now. With the first three home games on sale from 16/7 @ 09.00 hours. As an experiment I tried...

    The Carling Cup

    I asked this question when the Man U draw was made, and as far as I'm aware got no response, so I'll try again. Back in August, as we were about to face Bournemouth in the First Round, several people came on here saying how we should rest loads of players, experiment with formations etc...

    Ipswich preview

    Southend have now gone over two months without a league win, but with Ipswich Town next on the fixture list, the Shrimpers have a great chance of ending their dismal run. After a good streak of four wins in five games, Ipswich have lost their last three, conceding nine goals in the process. Of...

    Positive energy

    Right, Let's try a little experiment along the Uri Geller lines. AT 3pm today (6 minutes time), 24 hours before the big kick-off we should all stand up in our offices, homes etc. and shout at the top of our voices: "GOING UP, GOING UP, GOING UP, GOING UP, GOING UP, GOING...

    the fbm view

    I think we have to bear in mind the quality of the opposition here.  We beat E Thurrock and Canvey and to be honest so we should; Millwall should beat us and did so. But IMHO it was a far cry from previous pre-season games against superior opposition.  In the past we have been outplayed...
