    What do you buy an 80 year old for his birthday?

    Hi All, My Grandad has his 80th coming up! He lives alone. He has loved sport all throughout his life. He is a lot less nimble now, with a fragile memory to say the least. He never likes a fuss to be made. But it's his 80th. Most likely his last big birthday celebration... What can I do that...

    AGM, pre-match thread

    Thought it was maybe about time for one of these. There's lots of comments being made on various other threads so I think it's worth collecting various ideas under one heading. Firstly, in answer to something Smiffy just asked me, this is the state of play with Directors. I've been back...

    Tumblr

    OK, so I ain't got a clue how it works, but I've started a tumblr dedicated to the second best songs by bands/artists who really are known for "that" song they did. I've got the ball rolling with Big Audio Dynamite, I'm sure once I've got the hang of it, it'll look better, but right now, I'm a...

    Does trolling exist on SZ?

    Trolling has been defined as: "In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into a desired emotional response or of...

    Worst ever individual displays

    With far too much positivity on the board following the signing of Lee Sawyer, I thought it about time I lowered the mood with a depressing thread, so inspired by mention of Che Wilson's LDV final appearance I want the definitive XI of worst ever performances. They don't have to be bad players...

    Now I Know What the Helmets For.

    Since joining my new company things have moved along in the recovery world for me. My gaffer is one of these chaps who wont ask you to do something he wouldn't or couldn't do himself which is in sharp contrast to the last lot. He loaths paperwork and if the true is told, sitting in his office...

    Palestinian Family Sends Son To be Martyred; Israel Doesn't Cooperate

    I bet this really ****es the family off. All they wanted was a martyr, not a mentally ill son! Here they are, planning a big martyrdom celebration, counting the blood money they'll receive, looking forward to the anti-Israel propaganda, and the damn Joos wouldn't kill the boy! Those *******s...

    Your A-Z of Greatest Hits

    The theory is you need to make a double album of your favourite songs, 13 on each CD. The catch is you can only pick one song per letter to make an A-Z. So how would your A-Z pan out? It helps having iTunes or suchlike open in song order in front of you! If there's enough responses to this I...

    Credit where its due...

    This is mainly for the haters... But credit the club this week - for the ON field activities. Yes, theres a lot of problems that we all know about and most love to keep digging up and going over, and over... but the positives of this week could be massive. 1) Firstly, I believe the Port Vale...
  11. Memory Lane Pubey's trip down memory lane

    I don’t know why, I guess I’m just getting old, but yesterday I had a real sense of nostalgia. I spent the evening thumbing through our wedding album with Mrs Pubey, a regular pastime, and my eye was drawn to a family who have been ‘family friends’ all my life. They were...

    manor15's Football League Round-Up: Week 1 (7/8/10)

    Boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the football season, and in particular the brand-spanking new npower Football League for the 2010-11 season. After a summer of World Cup action in South Africa, the country, well at least a small part of its', eyes switched to Carrow Road on...

    Badgers - Game, set and match?

    I came in from football last night and noticed the security light in my back garden was on. Looking through the patio doors I noticed a young badger strolling across my decking which probably explains the recent holes that have appeared in my lawn. Anyone know what I can do to get rid of them?

    FAO all Ron Martin believers, apologists, apathists: why I shall be voting option 5..

    Posters on this forum such as mcnasty & pboreham have questioned what a protest against ron will achieve & questioned the commitment of those participating, whilst also taking enjoyment from lampooning poor jack in the process. I don't claim to have the right...

    The Financial Situation Explained (Sort of!)

    Found this on a Grimsby forum HERE. Quite why it is on there I don't know, but details the mess we are in, quite well I feel. Ammendments in red. Feel free to suggest anything you feel is incorrect or needs adding. I will then edit this list, so it's all in one place. 1] Sainsburys...

    Breaking News Today's Echo - Who owns the Blues? (2010 thread)

    Who own's the Blues.... It seems that Sainsbury's are not far off from owning the lot with the loans they have shelled out and the controlling interest they will have if debts are not repaid. The article is far to long (4 pages) to post it all here but the main points as I see it are. Rm's...

    Stranger Things Have Happend

    Just a thought, with Adam Barretts sending off and now one match ban I wonder if this could signal the change we need. Don't get me wrong our captains passion and fight is excellent but lets be honest we havent kept many clean sheets this season with him in the side have we. Perhaps this...

    The Soviet Union - the Great Socialist Utopia

    Just to get the ball rolling.... 'the annual risk of a person under Soviet control being murdered by the regime was 1 out of 222. But, compare - the annual risk of anyone in the world dying from war was 1 out of 5,556, from smoking a pack of cigarettes a day was 1 out of 278, from any cancer...

    Generation Kill

    Well, a bit late to the party but just finished watching all 7 hours and must say I thought that was a colossal piece of work. Brilliantly acted, stunningly filmed, really funny / sad / gripping / interesting. It probably won't get raved about as much as The Wire or various other HBO shows but...

    Andy Carroll

    Just reported on SSN that he is in trouble for an assault charge. More to follow when I can find an article. What is it with footballers today? Do they not learn that they are in the public eye and if they fart everyone know about it. Surely this is something their managers and agents should...
