    Tories Win the General Election

    Geoff Hoon and Patrica Hewitt have just won the election for the Tories by demanding a secret ballot on Gordon Brown's leadership of the Labour party. If you open the window and listen very hard, you might hear Cameron laughing his head off. Why is it that the only aspect of 'Old Labour' that...

    Parking Fine & how to get off it

    Right, I've just had a phone call from the Mrs questioning why we've got a £60 fine for "parking in a residents bay" Basically, I was dropping some stuff off I'd sold on eBay and was only in the place for 10 minutes. This was 8.30pm on a Monday night & the road was in no way full of residents...

  3. Five Star Pac Man Reigns Supreme.

    If ever there was any doubt regarding Manny Pacquiao's claim to the pound-for-pound crown, it was swept away with a simply stunning performance last night. The Phillipino, dubbed Pac Man, stormed to a win over the supremely talented Miguel Cotto and, in doing so, claimed his fifth world title...

    SZ Novella - Chapter Five

    Chapter Five - Red Sky At Night, Stokes' Delight Ricey sprinted down the back-alley, feet slipping and sliding on the wet concrete as he went. The sound of a gunshot echoed off the walls and he instinctively ducked, almost falling to the ground. Reaching the end of the passageway, he turned...

    Goal of the season?

    I've only just seen Carlton Cole's goal vs Wigan from Weds night- an intricate passing move (5, I think) before he curls it past Kirkland. A quality goal from...a possibly under-rated player, but more importantly, the passing was sublime. There was a lovely little back-heel from the Italian guy...

    Fright Night For Scolari

    Hi all, apologies for the lack of these recently. Not been too well, so just been filing and then retiring back to my sick-sofa. Back now though with more ill thought-out, poorly constructed critiques of the rich and famous. And so without Freddy Adu.... If Manchester United's victory in...

    Money Won't Buy Al-Fahim Success

    It may be billed as 'the clash of the cash', but if anyone at Manchester City thinks that their sky-rocketing bank balance automatically gives them parity on the pitch with Chelsea, then tonight's game is going to be a really nasty wake-up call. When you sweep away the tabloid headlines and the...

    This is a vital season for Arsenal

    At this time of year, particularly in the UK, it's not unusual to be struck down by the post-holiday blues. Everywhere you look you can see the sad, sun-tanned faces of those who have let their problems ebb away on a hot beach, only to return home to the sickening blow of normality. For some...

    Slipperduke's Official FM2008 Challenge

    Hello there, I'm Ernst von Slipperduke and welcome to my lair. I come with a challenge for anyone who thinks they might be a bit good at Football Manager 2008, that infamous thief of time. It's always struck me that Football Manager challenges can be a little flawed. It's all very well saying...

    The battle for survival

    The only excitement that comes close to the battle for the Premier League is the fight to merely stay in it for another season. The financial rewards of the top flight are now so vast that relegation is no longer an occupational hazard that can be thrown off with one straight-forward recovery...

    Nothing Yet For Keegan

    Newcastle’s worrying, barren run under Kevin Keegan stretched to its third game on Wednesday morning when they were beaten for the second time in four days by Arsenal. Once again, the Magpies came to play football and once again they were ruthlessly punished for their audacity. Most managers...

    When I caught up with Adrian Clarke in London's trendy Camden, it was raining. "It's raining," he said with a wry smile, as the water pounded against the windows. He glanced outside at the widening pools of water on the pavement, the reflected lights of the traffic turning them into...

    Match report from yesterday’s game.

  17. Another ex Manchester City player.

    Just a thought. Paulo Wanchope looked quite impressive for Costa Rica the other day. The commentator also said that it is rumoured he would like a return to English football. Your thoughts gentlemen (and Ladies) please. We've had one 'old boy' from Man City and he was pretty...

    Walsall

    A throughly well deserved draw for the super blues and it could have been 3 points! Excellent away following, approx 500 Shrimpers made the trip and out sung the very quiet home fans.  The Bescott is a pretty impressive ground with one very large double tiered stand behind one goal. Daryl made...
